Hi Everyone. Please pray for Sister Lisa as she's not well. Pray for sufficient rest and healing from the Lord.
Also do pray for Sunday's children's ministry. Pray for the children to be cooperative and for us to have wisdom as to how to best minister to them. Ask the Lord to work mightily and show us what we should do.
Share wif u a verse that really encouraged me this morning :)
"For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him." (2 Chr 16:9)It's not about what we can or cannot do! May the Lord show Himself strong.

Just want to thank the Lord for this morning's children's ministry. Thank the Lord for Aly, Lova, Yixian, Irene 2, Irene 3 and Alicia who came to be a part of this ministry. Great job, ladies! Good work with the storytelling, Lova! It's great to serve the Lord together :)
This morning was a great improvement from last week. Even though we still struggled on and made a few mistakes, we can see the Lord's blessings: He brought more children along like Gabriel, Jerica, Jo Wei and Natalie who were not there last week. There're still many children out there, but thank the Lord He didn't give us a multitude while we're still so new. It's so encouraging when the children respond and warm up to you. May the Lord help us to build good relationships with them that would allow Him to work in and through us to mentor them.
Do join us for this ministry and be praying for us! We'll be doing this every Sunday from 9 - 10 a.m.
P.S. Let's also be praying for Sis Lisa as she's been unwell. Thank the Lord for her help with training us for this ministry.

Something to encourage those mugging for their papers...
~ .. whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. ~
1 Cor 10:31
Work becomes worship when you dedicate it to God, perform it with an awareness of His presence.

Easter Outreach!
Hi Everyone! Thank the Lord Good Friday is here. We just had a great time in church watching the performance and hearing Pastor Mike's preaching on the Easter story once again. Hearing it on Good Friday and Easter always brings tears to my eyes :)
This Sunday (11/4) after morning service, the Campus Ministry will be going to Orchard Road to invite Filipinos to the Filipino service in the afternoon. As it is Easter, many of them will be open to go to church on their day off. Filipinos are very open to the Gospel and to coming to church. Please do consider being a part of this needful work.
Please do let Kong know if you'd like to join the outreach, and do let us know if you need more details. See you guys on Sunday! Do invite your friends!

How Deep the Father's Love For Us
How deep the Father's love for us
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the man upon a cross
My sin upon His shoulder
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
Stuart Townend
"Until we understand the immensity of the cost, we won't understand the immensity of His love for us." (Townend, 2001)

Not too long ago I was feeling a little discouraged when someone said to me: "Remember God is bigger than you!" Thank the Lord for this reminder. It was such an encouragement.
My God is Bigger than Me
My God is bigger than me.
He made each flow'r and each mighty tree.
He raised the mountains and made the sea.
My God is bigger than me.
My God is bigger than me.
He is the Author of history.
He knows the future and makes things be.
My God is bigger than me.
My God is bigger than me.
He gave His lifeblood at Calvary.
He settled my sins and made me free.
My God is bigger than me.
My God is bigger than me.
He rose to life that I may be
Together with Him for eternity.
My God is bigger than me.
My God is bigger than me.
Though all my weaknesses He can see,
He still is faithful, He still loves me.
Oh, my God is bigger than me!
