We want to welcome all our guests, brothers, and sisters for joining our Sunday service. 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's Holy Word will be the place to nurture your spiritual growth!
欢迎所有莅临本会的嘉宾朋友、弟兄姐妹。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。祈愿中国布道会能够成为您属灵生命成长的地方！

来临星期四晚上8点是教会2023年第一次的联合祷告会。我们将停止线上直播，而是单单以实体的方式进行。敬请预备心，一起来到神面前祷告！
This coming Thursday evening (8 pm) is our church's first combined prayer meeting of 2023. We will discontinue the online live broadcast and will only conduct it via physical mode. Please prepare your hearts and come together to pray before God!
今年教会的崇拜，将会做以下的调整：第一，我们将恢复在奉献后，以“三一颂”来回应。第二，我们将取消每周的感言，并以一年三期的见证、分享与汇报来取代。第三，我们将于第一与第三周，放入一张夹页，内容包括背经经文；读经经文与属灵语录。
This year we will make the following changes to our worship services: Firstly, we will return to responding with "Doxology" after the offering. Secondly, we will remove the weekly testimonies and replace them with testimonies, sharing, and reporting three times a year. Thirdly, we will put in a spiritual insert with scripture memorization, scripture readings, and spiritual quotes in the first and third weeks.
教会将于2023年开始，重新让弟兄姐妹参与主日的献花。有意参与者可以于崇拜后到70号MPH的布告栏填写。献花费用是$50，欢迎大家参与！
Our church will begin Sunday flower offerings again in 2023. Brothers and sisters who are interested can fill up the schedule at the notice board in MPH #70 after service. The Sunday flower offering amount is $50; all are welcome to participate!
由于来年的农历新年初一刚好是星期天（2023年1月22日）。为了弟兄姐妹能更好安排当天的行程，我们将把当天的联合崇拜提早到9am开始。让我们在探访亲友之前，先来到主面前敬拜祂。
The first day of the Lunar New Year in the coming year falls on a Sunday (22 Jan 2023). In order for brothers and sisters to organize their schedule better for that day, we will start the Combined Service earlier that day at 9 am. Let's come to the Lord and worship Him before visiting our friends and relatives.
来临星期三的乐龄查经班，将取消，敬请弟兄姐妹们留意！
Brothers and sisters, please take note that we will take a break from this coming Wednesday's elderly bible study!
Prayer Pointers | 祷告事项
今天是2023年的第一天。为着神在2022年的看顾与保守感恩，也祈求神赐下祂的恩典与力量，好让我们能够同心的面对摆在面前的挑战！Today is the first day of 2023. Give thanks for God's provision and protection in 2022, and pray for His grace and strength so that we can face the challenges before us with one heart!
为着许燕杰传道祷告。今天的按牧除了是教会对许传道服事的肯定，更是神对许传道呼召的再一次确定。求主带领许传道接下来的服事，能够成为教会与弟兄姐妹的祝福！
Let’s pray for Ps Andrew Xu. The ordination today is not only an affirmation from the church to Ps Andrew’s serving but also another confirmation of God's call to Ps Andrew. Pray that Ps Andrew’s future serving will bring blessings to the church and brothers and sisters!
为着以下肢体代祷 Congregation prayer concerns：
请继续在祷告中记念伍务德姐妹。她身体已经康复很多，但佣人准证的申请还未得到批准，所以还无法出院。
Please continue to remember Sister Ng Moh Tuck in your prayers. She has recovered a lot, but the application for a maid's permit has not yet been approved, so she cannot be discharged from the hospital yet.
请继续在祷告中记念陈敬钦弟兄、陈礼文弟兄、翁汉文弟兄、岑桂玲姐妹、林爱清姐妹与李金梅姐妹。
Let us continue to keep Brother Tan Keng Khim, Brother Chan Li Wen, Brother Ong Han Boo, Sister Sam Kwai Leng, Sister Ling Ie Cheng and Sister Lee Kim Buay in prayer.
