Announcements
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 Holy Word will be the place to nurture your spiritual growth!
Last week there were 74 on-line viewing points for Chinese service and 27 on-line viewing points for English service. There were 5 attendees in the physical worship services, including speakers, pastors and ministry volunteers.
The English service will resume physical service from the 7th of November onwards. Currently, only those below the age of 60 who have completed their full vaccination (2 doses) will be eligible to attend physical church service. If you are living with the elderly, we encourage you to continue joining the service online. The Chinese service and children's Sunday school will continue to be fully online. Brothers and sisters who intend to attend physical service will have to register their interest with their respective cell leaders.
Due to the recent increase in the number of COVID19 cases, we will continue to suspend the coming Wednesday Senior Bible study until further notice.
The church has scheduled 5 Dec as the church's baptism celebration day. If any brothers or sisters would like to be baptized or transfer of church membership, please check with the pastors.
Our church annual Youth Camp is here! This year, Camp Ekballo, is on Missions, the third sequel to a 3-year camp series on Discipleship-Community-Missions, the 3 pillars of ECF’s vision. It will be held in decentralized locations from 19th to 22nd December. The camp format is subject to Covid 19-restrictions and any changes will be provided at a later date. More information on the camp can be found in the sign-up form. Sign up now @ bit.ly/ekballo2021. If you have any questions, feel free to approach Grace Gan (91181335) or Tan Jie Qi (81538412). See you there!
Prayer Pointers
Pray for COVID19 pandemic：
(1)According to the World Health Organization, as of 13 October, more than 6.65 billion people worldwide have been vaccinated. Please pray for the entire vaccination process to go smoothly.
(2)According to the Ministry of Health, there were 3439 cases on 21 Oct alone, of which 492 were elderly people over 60 years old. There are currently 1,613 cases hospitalized, with 61 of them in intensive care units. Recently, there are COVID19 clusters in many nursing homes and majority of the residents are elderly. Please remember the elderly patients in your prayers.
Pray for congregation prayer concerns：
(1) Please continue to remember Reverend Ruth Ho in your prayers. She has recently found a nurse who can help her administer high vitamins. Together with the bio-resonance therapy twice a week, she is now stable and in good spirits.
(2)Mdm Huang, the mother-in-law of Sister Serena Tan, fell in the toilet last Monday and injured her head (a 3cm wound). The doctor not only stitched up the wound, but also did an X-ray examination on her. During the examination, it was also found that her gallbladder was inflamed and there were stones inside. A more detailed examination will be done later. For now, she has gone home to recuperate. Please remember in your prayers!
(3)Let us continue to keep Brother Goh Wee Shin, Brother Tan Keng Khim, Sister Lim Yoke Hong, Sister Yue Soon Lin and Sister Sam Kwai Leng in prayer.
