Prayer Pointers
Church leaders are actively searching for a suitable location for the congregation to use. The leaders are currently evaluating a possible location and are consulting with an attorney for advice and help in understanding the feasibility of using this location. Please pray for wisdom from God for the pastors and leaders in this matter, so that they may know clearly where God is leading them!
Sister Joelynn's mom (brother Stanley's mom-in-law) Mdm Hoo Siew Khing went home to be with the Lord last Friday. The wake is at The Chapel @ Garden of Remembrance (920 Old Choa Chu Kang Road, Singapore 699815).
They will be there today and there is a wake service tonight at 8 pm. Let’s continue to pray for sister Joelynn and the family.
Brother Tan Keng Khim was admitted to Singapore General Hospital with gallbladder inflammation. He is still undergoing treatment and recuperation. Please remember him in your prayers!
Let us continue to keep Brother Tan Keng Khim, Sister Sam Kwai Leng, and Sister Ng Moh Tuck in prayer.
