On Sunday, 16 August, we will hold our Foundation Sunday Celebration, with the following activities:

  • Worship Service at 10:00 AM and 6:30 PM. Come with a joyful and humble heart as we gather and worship.

  • Picture-taking. Immediately following the service, we will take a group photo. This image will serve as a testament to His faithfulness for both present and future generations to remember.

  • Fellowship Lunch. We love eating together, don’t we? Please bring a plate of food to share. Part of our fellowship is also to share in the preparation, serving, and housekeeping; please feel free to volunteer and enjoy the team spirit.

For your Sunday worship preparation, please read 1 Thessalonians 4:13-5:28.

Also, listen to and meditate on “Sweet Hour of Prayer” – https://youtu.be/EwOPwAVDN7s?si=iG0-1BIiitXBZwOb
