Dear Blogger Friends,
We join our hands together with our brothers and sisters-in-Christ, in Singapore and around the world to grieve the loss of Rev. Dr. Rick Seaward who was involved in a car crash accident on 24th March 2018 in Brazil. Rev Dr Rick Seaward was the founding pastor and Apostolic Overseer of Victory Family Centre (then known as Calvary Charismatic Centre) in Singapore. Founded in 1977, Pastor Seaward, together with his wife, Diane, started the first church service in Mandarin Hotel. A man of great faith and vision, he was well known around the world for his firm conviction that every local church has a part to play in world missions. Under his leadership, Victory Family Centre was raised to become a missions-sending force, which to date, has planted over 10,000 churches in over 90 nations.
Pastor Seaward was renowned for his revolutionary strategies in planting churches that would in turn plant more churches. He also dedicated his life to raising disciples and leaders who would have the same heart and vision for missions. In the most recent decade, Pastor Seaward's vision for global missions became synonymous with the transformation of entire nations. Fondly known as a spiritual mentor who demonstrated a heart for discipleship, Pastor Seaward prioritized time to personally mentor leaders and pastors from around the world. He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather who deeply inspired his family to live a life sold out for the Gospel.
We pray for his legacy to be remembered that will continue to bear lasting fruit through many lives of others globally. As such, we want to honor his life and the work he has done to expand God's kingdom in this nation and the nations surrounding us.
