Our Christmas Service will be held on 21 December with the theme “The True Meaning of Christmas.” There will also be a baptism during the service, and we will witness six of our brothers and sisters taking this important step of faith: Brother Lu Yong Quan, Sister Jessy Gu, Brother Thomas Fu, Sister Ng Jing Ying, Brother Brendan Chan, and Brother Gareth Ho. Please keep them in prayer.
We are currently collecting Missions Faith Pledges for 2026, with a target of $35,000. So far, 24 members have responded. To allow more members to participate, we will be extending the pledge collection for another two weeks, inclusive of this week. Please prayerfully consider your giving and submit your pledge in the box outside the service hall as we unite together in supporting our church’s mission work.
Our church’s 70th Anniversary highlight activities are still ongoing! Let’s continue to take part together:
Strides of Love – Keep walking with your family and friends as we journey toward our goal of 70 million steps, celebrating God’s love with every step.
Footsteps of Grace – Continue to write your appreciation notes to those who have nurtured and walked with you in your Christian journey, filling our church with messages of gratitude.
Let’s keep moving and giving thanks, celebrating 70 years of God’s grace and faithfulness!
We will be holding a Christmas celebration on 20 December, jointly organized by Joo Seng Residents Network, Neighbour Ring Community Services, and ECF. Everyone is encouraged to join us as we celebrate Christmas together and share the joy of the birth of our Lord Jesus!
The church’s Seniors Ministry has arranged a gathering and lunch this coming Tuesday, 25 November, at 10am in the church. Seniors who are interested in participating may register with Rev Ng. Please note that there will be no elderly bible study on coming Wednesday!

Let us give thanks for our Chiang Rai Missions Team, who has returned safely from their trip from 17 to 22 November. We thank God for His protection over their travels and health, and for using their ministry to bring His love, hope, and salvation to the people they served. May the Lord continue to bless the work of their hands and preserve the fruit of this mission trip.
Congregation prayer concerns：
Let us continue to keep Brother Steven Lim, Brother Tan Keng Khim, Sister Chen Yik Ying, Sister Ng Moh Tuck and Sister Chiu Fong Har in prayer.
