Proud to be Singaporean!
Every year, on National Day, my family and I will sit in front of the TV to watch the National Day Parade live. As always, we sing the songs patriotically, laugh at the outrageous costumes, tear when the National Anthem is sung, talk about our National Service experiences, but one thing is for sure – we’re all proud to be Singaporeans.

In 1978, the evangelist Dr. Billy Graham, prophesied that Singapore would be an Antioch for Asia. It was a defining moment for us as a nascent nation.

Date: 8 & 9 August 2020
Time: Sat 5pm / Sun 9am

They had no trained army, no public administrators, no institutions of learning, no legal framework, no currency and most importantly, no land to inhabit. No other nation in the history of mankind, except for Israel, was constituted before they possessed any land. Yet in over 400 years, they became the foremost nation in the Middle East during the days of King Solomon. The constructs and blueprint that God gave to the Jewish people for building a nation remain viable and relevant in our days. These same principles should guide us on how to pray for our nation so that we may continue to prosper and flourish.
* ONLINE SERVICES ONLY THIS WEEKEND! Sunday online service will be at 9am instead of 10.15am.
On-site services at Katong & Bugis will resume next week. Happy National Day!
