2019 WSCS Visit to Homebound
WSCS Visitation teams of two or three, during Pre-Covid-19 days, would visit the Homebound once a month, to complement the Holy Communion visitation team. We give thanks to God for sustaining and blessing this ministry, allowing us to be present, albeit virtually, during this very challenging season in their golden years.
Since February 2020, WSCS visitation to the homebound is conducted via ZOOM, WhatsApp video calls and telephone calls, about twice a month. The teams paired up to connect and encourage them, listen to their stories, share their common faith in Christ Jesus and pray with and for them. It also brings encouragement to some of the family members and helpers.
During the e-visits of the Homebound over the last 12 months, the teams discovered they love to sing hymns and choruses to praise God Some of them do not have smart devices and thus miss out on the online services. Also, coming to church is not convenient for them, as most of them are not mobile. However, for those who can use ZOOM and WhatsApp video, they have adapted very well and enjoy the online chats. The visitation teams felt so blessed when one of the Homebound called a few of them to find out how they were doing. The homebound would even pray for the visitation team members during the visitation. They continue to inspire the visitation teams with their strength and faith in the Lord.
