Prayer Pointers
"Community" is one of the missions of our church. We thank Lord for leading us in our community ministry for the past 20 years. In addition to ministering the elderlies of the community, we will also be gradually expanding our ministry to younger families. Please continue to remember in prayer that more young members with a burden will join the ministry!
