教会自6月与7月，两位牧者相继离职后，他们所负责的牧区与事工就由黄牧师与许传道接手。为了让牧者能够用更多时间在牧养与教导事宜上。教会领袖决定从9月起，聘请李木兰姐妹成为部分时间的牧养干事。主要是协助两位牧者在牧养的行政工作上。仅此告知会友！
Since the two pastors left ECF in June and July respectively, both Rev Ng and Pastor Andrew took over their pastoral works and ministries. In order for them to spend more time on shepherding and teachings, the church leaders have decided to hire Sister Kathleen Lee Bock Lan as a part-time Pastoral Executive, effective from Sept. Her main role is to provide administrative support to the two pastors in the pastoral care ministry.
教会将于10月16至12月18日，以中英同步，但分开举行启发课程。由于疫情的关系，我们将把参与者分成5人一组，于周五在不同的家或教会举行。欲知详情，请参阅布告栏的海报或向陈国彬执事询问。
The church will hold both English and Chinese Alpha course simultaneously but separately from 15 Oct to 18 Dec. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we will form the participants into groups of 5 and hold them in different homes or in church on Fridays. For more details, please refer to the poster on the Bulletin Board or enquire from Deacon Timothy Chen.

Let us continue to remember the countries, people and churches affected by the COVID-19:
As of 27th August, the global COVID-19 cases are 23,980,044; Singapore with 56,495. Please continue to pray for the different countries to manage the situation of the virus.
Let us continue to pray for Singapore. The epidemic situation in Singapore has continued to improve, and no one is currently in the ICU, 65 in the general ward and 1,432 staying in the community care facilities.
Pray for the world’s medical researchers. May the Lord grant them wisdom to find a vaccine for the novel corona-virus soonest.
Due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic, both church ministries and activities had to be changed and adjusted to adapt to the situation. We pray that moving forward, may God grant wisdom to our pastors and leaders how best to plan the pastoral care and church ministries.
Congregation prayer concerns:
Let us continue to keep Brother Tan Keng Khim, Brother Goh Hun Sheng , Brother Amos Tan , Sister Wong Chay Ling and Sister Mary Chee in prayer.
