Weekly Bulletin 每周报告 24th May 2020
Dear brothers and sisters, God's grace is indeed sufficient for us! Each day is a new day in the Lord and we can always count on Him to carry us through our ups and downs. Continue to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not on our own understanding, acknowledge him in every part of your life. As Singapore exits the circuit breaker period on 2nd of June, let us continue to be thankful for the progress and continue to practice caution to prevent the resurgence of COVID-19 in our community.
