CG Prayer & Praise

Tim's group had prayer & praise tonight, as the group was small, and some were attending "Exploring the Da Vinci Code" organised by TM412 in church. Good extended time just worshipping and praying. Claimed upon Ps 27:4, reflecting on what is worship, and what is meant by dwelling in God's courts, gazing upon His beauty, and seeking Him in His temple. Pray for Xinhong as she takes a short break in Hanoi this Sunday for a week with her boss. Blessed birthday to Lois (26th) and Joy (30th)!

Sin Ming: Greetings from Down Under

Hi everyone,

Well, thanks for your prayers. I am doing well so far. The weather has been good for the past week. Actually managed to get quite a couple of things done including buying furnitures and settling some of my administrative stuffs. Now waiting for furnitures to come in and in the mean time trying to buy a car. Hiring one at the moment.

Many blessings to count actually. Firstly, how I got around Perth safely and how I got to church safely on Sunday. My church has moved house thus was going round and round looking for it. Finally decided that this is too much of a hassle and parked my car and started walking to church instead. It is nice indeed to meet up with my church mates again although many things seems to have changed...

On the whole, I am doing fine and well. Work is starting only next week. Will keep you guys updated.

Sun - prayer for Lifen


Lifen arrived last night about 10pm, and joined us for 1st service on Sunday. After service, we spent some time to pray for her as she transitions back to work life here in Singapore, adjusting to 2 new summer interns and new colleague. Pray for full recovery of health as well, as she was sick over the weekend.
