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！

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.

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!
