Chosen One Ministries

You might say that I was a bit of jelaous with people who claimed themself as Batak. Well, even though sometimes I had a bumpy joke about them, especially about their strong character and an exceptional behavior, I must admit that many of them have strong points, which are modern, smart, tough, independent, strong will, straight ahead, and determined. Most of those points don't exist among Javanese, not to mention myself. I don't want to play racist, but the point is they are great people. I got two Batak friends who amazed me and whose both names are Binsar. One is 27 years old, a post graduate of semantic theology from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, who is now still doing his doctoral study also in theology in the same university. I got to know him when we were together having a Dutch course in the Netherlands Embassy. He was prominent with his dutch, even though we were just doing the first grade. I never got the idea that he was already a master of theology from Vrije Univ...

I don't know what to say about this, because it seemed that God has ordained everything to make this run smoothly. At least I had to admit this wasn't in my plan. Long before we set up a company, I had a couple of meetings with another architect to discuss about the drawing of the hospital and the orphanage. Well, I still could remember what kind of look the architect gave me when I explained him about this project. He was thinking that I was kidding, totally wasn't serious, having a stupid dream in the mid of the day!! Building a hospital in Wamena? Who's gonna think about that, at least among normal people? He just discovered that this project was almost impossible, but he didn't dare to say that we were a crazy couple. The idea itself was crazy, if you don't want to say it as ridiculous. The initial drawing that I made sounded very ambititious, a very big building on a limited land. We want to have a hospital and also an orphanage next to each other. The buil...

In November 2007 before we departed to The Netherlands, we paid another visit to Wamena. This time we went together with Mrs.Kaisiepo (the owner of the land) and also with Paula, Miriam's youngest sister.   We visited again the land which will be the location of a hospital and an orphanage. We met with a family who is faithfuly taking care of the land, went to an agrarian office to measure the land, and also made a documentation about the land. This visit gave us more confidence and stronger faith that God is about to do what He had promised. If God is on us, who is againts us? Also in this trip we got so many revelations from God. Suddenly came up many people who also wanted to give their contribution to this ministry. There was a possibility that we might purchase a bigger land just next to it, the head of local district declared his side upon us and promised to help in anyway he could, and also a bussines man promised to give stones, sand, and other material for the buildi...

Praise the Lord!! After a long time of prayer and purification, we finally could set up a company. This company names PT RAJAWALI PERKASA MEDIKA which means in English “the Mighty Eagle Medical Papua’’. PT stands for Perseroan Terbatas or a private limited company. The company is owned by Chosen One Ministries (represented by Noegi) and its partner Ms Reny Kaisiepo. COM holds major shares 60 percent and the rest 40 percent held by Reny. Noegi acts as a director while Reny sits as a commissaries. The name of the company differs than the early name we intended to have. Because of the regulation from the government that a company’s name should be in Indonesian, we could not name this company as Chosen Medicine Papua. So after a discussion with many who are involved, including Miriam and Mrs Kaisiepo who owned the Rajawali Perkasa Foundation (the Mighty Eagle Foundation), we agreed to name this company the Mighty Eagle Medical Papua. Because we as Chosen One Ministries want to work togethe...

Jesus said "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these." It is very obvious that Jesus himself loves kids. He warned anybody who hinder the kids coming to him. Even he declared that the kingdom of God belongs to such as them! What an amazing revelation!! Many of us do not realize this. We thought that the Good News is for adult consumption, only for person who is able to understand and digest the preaching. The disciples of Jesus also had the same opinion. Maybe because they thought that those children were too noisy and could not listen to what Jesus was teaching about, so they kept the children away from Jesus. But Jesus' reaction was breathtaking. He demanded the disciples to let the children come to him. And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them. I suppose that Jesus suddenly stopped preaching and gave fully attention to the kids. I don’t know if Jesus even played with ...

Right Noegi is crazy of making a blog and a website. The birth of our son, Joshua, triggered this. Because our parents are living so far from us and they could not witness the birth of our first son, so we have an obligation to share the joy we have with them. After more than 3 weeks 'hard discussion' with PT Telkom (a telephone provider) that we really needed an internet connection in our house, then finally we got it. So we could send tons of Joshua's pictures to our parents and families. Because the internet connection by any reason (don't forget that we live in a third maybe a fifth world country!!) goes so slow, sometimes it takes hours just to send a single picture via email. So we thought it would be better if we just made a personal website for Joshua, so everybody could see our son via internet. We got this inspiration after we found out that our friend, Tamar, has also a website for her newborn baby. Even though it also took very long to upload files, but it...
