The Lord added to them daily

First - let me apologize to those of you who had been dropping by in the past few weeks but find no updates. Well, it's been a busy year-end for me with a lot of happenings and travels :D

Anyway, life hv to return to normalcy and the kids had to go to school and me, I got a little more time to do something online. This year can be consider a significant year for us in Hougang as we started our 1st Friday nite service on 2-Jan-2009 at a rented venue in the Girls Brigade Center along Upper Serangoon Road.


Dn Shieh noted that this is the 2nd time in abt 20 yrs we tried to setup a place of worship in this neighbourhood. The first was aborted when we could not get government approval to convert a residential land for religious usage and that end up we sold of the place and bought a piece of land along Adam Road where the current Adam Church stands.

The title, "The Lord added to them daily" was choosen as the 1st sermon given by Dn Shieh to encourage the members in this area to come together with one accord and aim to start up a fully functional church in the near future.

The message encouraged the members in this area to stand together with ONE Heart as was recorded in ACT 2:46 and the Lord will add to us daily.

The turn out during this session was beyond our expectation... while we hv book a room for 60pax, we ended up stuffing in 93 people who had turn up for the service. Praise the Lord!

May the Lord God bless us and assist us to setup a church in this area within the next 1yr.

You can help by remembering us in your prayers.
