Our vision is to be a “disciple-making church among our communities” and there are 3 missions “Discipleship, Community, Missions”. We invite you to join us as we progress toward this goal. We hope that ECF Holy Word will be the place to nurture your spiritual growth!

Both courses will be held on Saturdays from 10am to 11.30am via Zoom. Brothers and sisters can sign up through your cell group from today onwards.

     Prayer Pointers

1. Due to church’s space restriction issue, our church has formed a team to look for viable options. They are currently actively exploring the possibilities. Please continue to remember in prayer that Lord will give them wisdom and that they will find the right people to consult with so that they can find the right solution for our church!

2. 为着以下肢体代祷 Congregation prayer concerns：

   1. Sister Tan Num Kew was weak due to a lack of appetite for food. After three weeks in the hospital, she has discharged and returned home to recuperate and recover. Please pray for her!

   2. Sister Jean Ong was admitted to the hospital the day before yesterday for observation and treatment for diarrhea and back pain. Please remember her in your prayers.
