Weekly Bulletin 每周报告 19th April 2020
弟兄姐妹平安。我国将进入第三个礼拜的严峻的疫情应对策略。鼓励大家为了大局继续忍耐疫情所带来的不便。 本会的异象是建立一间“活在人群中的门徒教会”,我们期待您的加入,一同朝着这个目标前进。祈愿在这具有挑战的时期当中,中国布道会能够成为您属灵生命成长的地方!
Dear brothers and sisters,
As we enter into our 3rd week of our nation’s circuit breaker efforts, I urge you to continue to endure the inconveniences for the greater good. Our vision is to be a “disciple-making church among our communities”. We invite you to join us as we progress toward this goal. We hope that ECF Holy Word will be the place to nurture your spiritual growth especially during such challenging times.

The church has been broadcasting live online since 9th February and has entered its eleventh week. Thank you Lord for preparing the necessary equipment and co-workers with relevant technical skills for us, so that we can use the live streaming in the shortest time. When participating in live streaming worship, brothers and sisters must participate in the same way as when in church, that is, we must prepare our hearts, dress neatly and come to the Lord with a contrite heart to worship and encounter Him!
