2015 Living Stones Li Jing "There is no fear in love. Perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love." - 1 John 4:18 Mediacorp artist, Mr Rayson Tan, says he used to live in fear and superstition and that God delivered him from bondage by knocking on his heart over and over again. Describing his encounter with God, Mr Tan said he now walks in faith and total freedom. ​ Mr Tan's sharing at the Mandarin Evangelistic Service: From Fear to Faith brought great encouragement as many of us face similar fear and struggles as him. During altar call, more than 25 made the decision to receive Jesus as their savior and some rededicated their lives to the Lord. The service ended in a joyful and grateful atmosphere with everyone blessing each other through a benediction song! To God be the glory!

Except for not being able to see, we are just another human being like you. We work, we play, we study. We share similar interests with you. 2. Feel free to come and interact with us. You will probably have to make the first move as we can't see you. Introduce yourself and take it from there. It is also not necessary to offer us a seat each time you meet us. 3. Speak in a natural, conversational tone. It is not necessary to speak loudly. We may be visually impaired but are not hard of hearing. 4. Address us by name when possible, especially in crowded places so we know you are talking to us. 5. Address us personally and not through someone else. 6. Greet us when we enter the room so that we know you are present. 7. At the end of a conversation, inform us when you are leaving so that we will not be talking to air. 8. Feel free to use words that refer to vision. Such as "see," "look" and "watch". And remember: we are not insulted by the term "blind." 9. If you are serving as our guide, do not leave us in the middle of nowhere or in wide open spaces. 10. Be calm and clear about what to do if you see us encountering a dangerous situation. Use clear phrases like: "Stop, there is a drain," or "Turn right." 11. Ask, if you think we need help. Don't assume that you should. Don't feel rejected either, if we turn down your offer. Rejoice instead that we can make it on our own. 12. When offering assistance, never take us by the arm, pull us by our sleeve or by our white cane. By offering your arm instead, we can follow slightly behind and anticipate changes.

2006 PLMGS Christian Fellowship CCA 在耶稣里我是新造的人 The Great Commission - “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” - Matthew 28:19 Purpose Statement for PLMC's School Ministry in PLMGS (P): The School Ministry exists to reach pre-believers, to connect them to Christ's family, to raise up a succeeding generation to honour God, impacting communities and nations with Christ's love. ​ Christian Fellowship (CF) CCA The objective of the CF is to nurture and disciple every believer, to raise up a generation of godly women of fine character to honour God and to impact communities and nations with Christ's love. You may also like Share Testimony 2008 An Introduction to International Student Fellowship Children's Ministry Outreach The CF CCA meets every Tuesday from 1.30pm to 3.30pm. The majority of our girls are Christians, with a minority of pre-believers. Through God's grace, these pre-believers have now received Jesus as their Saviour and Lord. It is heartwarming to see our CF girls bringing their non-Christian classmates, with consent from their parents, to our fellowship. Praise God, they are learning how to 'fish' at a young age! God provided a stalwart team of co-labourers to run with me. As I reflect on His faithfulness in providing the labourers, I am overwhelmed with thankfulness and joy filled my heart! Judy Yeo, Jessie Yeo, Jessie Ong, Chin Choo, Elizabeth, Helen, Lily, Dawn and Anne have been running with me for the past two and a half years. Every Tuesday, despite the sweltering heat of the afternoon, they would labour out of love for the CF girls. Their rapport with the girls enables them to share the love of Jesus and those who were pre-believers have all received Jesus as their Lord and Saviour! Our Discipline Purpose Worship : To teach the girls to worship God in Spirit and in Truth. Guided reflection during worship enhances a deeper worship experience. The girls are encouraged to quiet their 'hearts' to learn to listen to God and to express their feelings and thoughts in 'love letters' to Him. It is indeed heart-warming to read their expressions of love and thanksgiving to God, giving me the calm assurance that His Word sown will not return void. It is a platform for them to glorify God with their heart-wrenching testimonies. Evangelism : Our girls are being equipped and challenged to share the gospel with their classmates, friends and relatives in a simple John 3:16' diagram. Role play is carried out too. They are taught how to ‘fish'! Fellowship : 1 remember vividly during one of the worship sessions, the manifested presence of God touched and convicted the heart of one of our girls. She asked me if she could testify. She had not treated her grandmother kindly when she was alive but felt condemned that she could not seek her forgiveness. I assured her of God's forgiveness through repentance and prayed for her. The Holy Spirit was moving powerfully amongst us, He convicted 5 other girls and they all began to weep as they experienced God's unconditional love and forgiveness. Not only did the girls weep, my co-labourers and I could not contain the tears as we experienced His tangible presence. It was indeed an awesome experience right in CF!

2019 Marriage Mentoring Ministry Mentoring Younger Married Couples Tan Ee Hong Getting married is a wonderfully romantic experience. Staying happily married, however, may be a different story. The foundation of a strong marriage is established in the first few years but it can also be a challenging period marked with adjustments, decisions, coping with new roles and expectations as newly-weds start their own family. The Marriage Mentoring (MM) Ministry was started in 2016 with the purpose of reaching out to our younger married couples. We aligned a pool of matured married couples who are willing to journey with younger couples over a season, to be their spiritual friends to pass on godly wisdom and invaluable life lessons. It is a meaningful ministry to safeguard and strengthen marriages towards oneness in Christ. The marriage mentors meet once or twice a year to align our unity and focus for this ministry. ​ Participants from our Marriage Preparation Course are privileged to be paired off with a MM couple when they get married, if they are willing. We hope to develop a culture here in PLMC where a young couple would actively seek out an older couple to relate to, intentionally and regularly, to build a relationship of trust and care. We do not have to be perfect to be ‘mentors’ – it is our authenticity and sincerity that will bless others. We also do not need to wait till a crisis in our marriage happens to seek for help. Investing in a mentoring relationship will enrich your marriage in the long run. Feel free to approach us if you wish for us to connect you with an older couple in church to start a marriage mentoring relationship. For more information, please email Mok Sang at moksangtan@gmail.com . You may also like Share Testimony 2019 Marriage Preparation Course 2018 Strengthening Our Marriage Family Life Ministry Reflections After the initial two years, we have some reflections from both the mentors and the mentees of their journeys in the mentoring relationships. On the average, they met once every two months. Terence & Fioeve: Hoe Meng and Margaret were there for us when we faced life changes due to demanding requests by in-laws. They see issues from a different perspective, and through biblical teachings, we are able to focus on the issue rather than ourselves. Their experiences are invaluable and their advice is a gift from our Heavenly Father. We will continue our journey together with our mentors and we pray that other couples may have the same privilege. Praise Be To God! Hoe Meng & Margaret: MM has been a great, joyful learning journey for us. We are refreshed as we watch our mentees grow in their communication and conflict resolution. As mentors, we provide listening ears, the extra shoulder to lean on, and the prayer support needed. It is beneficial to have a senior couple to walk along, and to pray with and for the young couple. Praise be to God for using our experiences to help and encourage the newly-weds. Ryan & Elizabeth: The MM is very helpful especially in the initial years of married life. Before each session with our mentors, we will be given questions to review and prepare for the meeting. Through the discussions, we discover more about ourselves as individuals and as a couple. Our mentors would provide further insights into our lives and relationship. They are fantastic and nice, always available to help us. Philip & Susan: We are very encouraged to see how Elizabeth and Ryan have matured in their relationship and applying some marriage principles like praying together as one flesh, praying for agreement and making God the third cord in their marriage. We are very blessed by our mentees’ sharing of their lives together. The most memorable lesson we have learned from MM is to firstly create a safe space for our mentees to be comfortable and to share freely their needs and concerns. The MM has also helped us in our own relationship as we get to spend more “quality” time together mentoring and praying for our mentees. We are also reminded once again to treasure our covenantal relationship and God’s blueprint for marriage. Rayvee & Cheryl Lim: Kem Wah and Keen Shan provided a safe environment where we could openly share our feelings and explore questions we had about marriage. This was especially important as we were newly-weds, struggling with unmet expectations and misconceptions of marriage. Being a seasoned married couple, they in turn would share about their struggles and successes in an honest and transparent manner. We look to them as very good role models. It is great to have godly mentors who understand our struggles, provide practical advice, yet remain objective at the same time. Kem Wah & Keen Shan: We wanted to share what we have received from God, in this case, a blessed marriage. We believe that as we give of ourselves to the couple, God does the bigger job of multiplying our time together to bless His people for all eternity. This is a small way we can serve a great God! We experience God in our interaction time with the mentees, seeing how God divinely touches their marriage. This is a ministry where we can serve and enjoy ourselves as a couple. After all, marriage is God’s idea! “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed” Proverbs 11:25 (NIV) You may also like Share Testimony 2019 Marriage Preparation Course 2018 Strengthening Our Marriage Family Life Ministry

2018 Eulogy: Remembering John Lim Dr. Wes Griffin President & CEO, International Leadership Institute The phone rang at 5am, and I knew immediately that something was wrong. Norival stated simply, “John Lim is in heaven.” By 9am, I was on a flight from Atlanta to Singapore to be with John’s wife, children, goddaughters, and friends. I am writing this devotion from a plane flying over the Pacific Ocean. Why would I drop everything and leave immediately? The answer is John Lim. ​ John Lim was a Singaporean businessman who became part of the inner circle of my life. He was ILI’s Asia Pacific Director and served on our Global Board of Directors. We met 12 years ago at the 2006 Nairobi Conference. A friend had nominated him to attend, although at the time, John felt too busy to give God two weeks. At the conference, he heard great Christian leaders like Rob Frost (London), Peter Pereira (India), David Thagana (Kenya), Isaac Lim (Singapore), Norival Trindade (Brazil), Al Vom Steeg (USA), and my wife Joy (USA) teach on Christian leadership, evangelism, and spreading the Gospel. One evening session was about “passion for the harvest". True passion comes from God, and John Lim dared to ask Him for it. As he prayed, God filled him with the Holy Spirit and gave him the gift of apostleship. John returned to Singapore where he would work at his insurance company during the week and fly to Thailand, Myanmar, and other places on the weekends to train leaders and preach to the lost. God used him to plant churches in villages where there had never been a church and to raise up leaders who could transform whole communities. John was a humble, winsome man with bold passion and fearless faith. He was a leader of leaders and responsible for equipping more than 7000 leaders in Asia in the last ten years. He was a close brother and mentor to me, and an example for all of us. He can say with the apostle Paul, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” 2 Timothy‬ 4:7‬ Brother John went home to the Lord on 28 March 2018. PLMC honours him for his dedicated service to the Lord and His people. You may also like Share Testimony 2018 Penang Mission Trip 2004 Mae Sot Thailand Missions

2001 Youth Service BUD - Newsletter for the Youths The Youth Ministry is making some changes that will definitely affect you! We are starting a Youth Service called the CONTEMPORARY YOUTH SERVICE (CYS). In this issue of Bud, we want to dedicate it all to the launching of The CYS. We will touch on the vision, the objectives and the strategies of the Contemporary Youth Service. We believe that the Lord has a special plan for the youth in PLMC. And we pray that upon catching the vision, you will be able to support us and move with us in this vision! What do you want to see among the youth in our church 5 years down? I would like to see them passionate for the Lord. I would like to see them passionate about their faith, that they will not be ashamed about the gospel. That they will go out to the 'nations' bringing the gospel to their neighbours. ​ What we want to reap will determine what we want to sow. If we want to reap a harvest of rice, we do not plant wheat or barley seeds. If we want to reap mangoes, we do not plant a banana tree. Likewise, if we want to reap a generation of youth who are fervent for the Lord, we need to sow the right 'seed' today. What we want to reap among the youth in years to come will determine what we should be doing now. Having that in mind, are we preparing for the event? Are our current system, structure and strategies leading us for that 'harvest'? If not, then we need to change. We need to make some adjustments; we need to work some changes.

2018 Tea With Dad Daughters of the King Angela Lim and Tan Mok Sang Tea with Dad was initiated and helmed by the Children’s Ministry and supported by the Family Life Ministry. This half-day event held on Sunday, 3 June 2018, provided a unique experience for fathers to spend an afternoon with their daughters doing activities that help them to bond and to have conversations with one another. Julie Hiramine (Founder and Executive Director of Generations of Virtue) delivered a devotion based on the theme Love of a Father: "I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness." Jeremiah 31:3 ​ She shared the importance of establishing strong biblical values in the families. The four essential keys were as follows: Family Connectedness, Clear Expectations, Positive Input and Father’s Involvement. Julie highlighted the role of fathers to protect and nurture their daughters. In addition, she emphasized the impact of fathers’ words of affirmation on their daughters’ self-worth. Carol Loi (Regional Director of Generations of Virtue) facilitated a sharing by our very own members, Roland Tay and his daughter, Yi-Xin who shared their father-daughter journey, how they intentionally made time to bond with each other through the years. Prayer was a crucial element for this pair of father and daughter. Roland would pray for Yi-Xin before she set off to school or work. They concluded this segment by sharing with the participants their affirmation letters they wrote for each other. You may also like Share Testimony 2019 Parenting Course Children's Ministry Family Life Ministry I think that the Tea with Dad session was very meaningful. I had the chance to engage in interesting activities with my father that I did not expect like nail painting. Through the activities, I got to know my father better and had the chance to sit down with him to talk. I would recommend such an event to others. Sarah-Ann Tham, 17 I’m glad I attended the Daughters of the King event with my daughter Sarah-Ann. Spending the afternoon together in a fun and relaxing atmosphere, doing activities with and for her helped me understand her much better. We spoke, we laughed, we shared and we learnt. And I especially treasure the letters we exchanged. Love, nurture, protect, maintain purity – a reminder to be a role model, a precious relationship between father and daughter given by our loving Father were some of the things I took away from the session. I encourage all fathers to attend, the next time you see it come around. Alex Tham, father of Sarah-Ann When I first heard that my dad had signed both of us up for this event, I was not quite looking forward to it. I told him that we are already blessed to be able to spend more time with each other as compared to most other dads and daughters, and that going for such events would be rather redundant. However, the event turned out to be a meaningful and unforgettable one. With 3 other siblings, it has often been tough for my parents to spend time with each of us individually. Thus, that afternoon with my dad was one that was hard to come by and I really cherished it. Just by having the time to talk to each other then was precious as we got to understand each other even better than we did before. Amanda Cheng, 17 My younger daughter Amanda is already 17 this year and I had to grab this last chance to bring her for such an event. Jordan Hall was totally transformed, with a photo booth complete with all the props for the father & daughter fun photo shoot. After we took a few shots, we were pleasantly surprised that they developed a candid shot for us. That was really fun! Then came the first game where I was to paint Amanda’s nails. I was so nervous as it was my first time painting anyone’s nails. I did it so carefully but still I had to use so many pieces of the special cleaning tissues to correct my mistakes. It was like a reflection of my poor fathering, remembering the many mistakes I had made in these years! But thank God, we can learn to ask for forgiveness and like using the correction tissues He helped me clean off my mistakes and try again. The most touching moment for me, was when we had to write a letter to each other. When I read Amanda’s letter to me, I was nearly in tears... For fathers who have not done this with your daughters, I highly recommend it.

1982 New Church Building The Church With A Beautiful Roof Kang Ho Soon & Lorna Khoo Pastors, PLMC The comments made about our Church have changed these days. For the past months we have heard people identifying our Church as “The Church Without A Roof”. But these days we hear remarks like "What a beautiful roof you have in that Church!” In fact we not only agree with this comment, but also see a parallel between the beauty of the roof and the beauty of the story that led to it. ​ First & foremost, the story began when a group of people here in Paya Lebar decided to unite themselves, young and old, rich and poor, to put up a building to the Glory of God. Every single tile on the roof represents individuals in our worshipping congregation who have sacrificed their money, time and talent. Like the single tiles which when nicely laid together form a beautiful roof, so also are individuals in our congregation who when they put together their resources in the Master's hand, can become a great united Church of God. This Church with a beautiful roof is the sign that we can be that great Church of God in this part of the world.

The roof is beautiful only because the workmen have given of their best and some Church leaders have spent much time overking every detail of the building. They are all dedicated to a work of excellence because they are doing it for God. Finally, the story of this roof is the story of the people whose faith is in the God who has given them a home. To have a roof is to have a shelter over our heads, that is, to have a home. It is our belief that God in Jesus Christ is our eternal home and this new sanctuary is a witness to the faith that God is “Our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home!” We can all thank God that in Him and through Him, we have been able to be united in our effort in putting up this sanctuary of great excellence to His Glory. We look forward to the day when we can dedicate this building to this God, who is our help, our hope, our shelter and our eternal home.

2019 Easter Silver Boxes Carolyn Lee Kindy The Kindy Department celebrated Easter on Sunday, 21 April, in an interesting and experiential way. lan Yap wrote the script and directed this experiential play. Our "actors" and "actresses” were our Silver Boxes leaders who took the step of faith and gamely acted for the children. The children experienced how it felt on Palm Sunday more than 2000 years ago, and also visited a “museum" to hear what “Judas” and "Peter" said. After that the children had a fun Easter egg hunt, to remember that Jesus is alive. He is no longer in the tomb, and He loves us, and wants to be our friend. ​ Junior The Junior Department planned an Overnight Easter Camp that was held at GB Headquarters from 20 to 21 April. There were 69 children who participated in the Camp, "Arising with Jesus”. We are thankful to Don Yeo, who planned and invited Elaine to co-teach with him, to lead the children to encounter and desire to listen and walk in obedience with God. Many children experienced God's power of love and enjoyed the Camp very much. We thank God for the young adult worship leaders, who led the worship, and also for Megan who planned the exciting and fun games with Loretta. Beatrice taught and led the children to do the flash mob, "Happy Day". Without our Silver Boxes leaders' dedication and commitment, this Camp would not have been possible. It is a joy to see the leaders and the children bond together, and pray together. One girl who had not been attending Silver Boxes, joined the Camp, and after the Camp, she felt a belonging, and has been regularly attending Silver Boxes ever since. Praise God!

2017 Daughters of the King! Carolyn Lee and Mabel Wong On Sunday, 29 Oct 2017, 20 pairs of mums and daughters sat down to a lovely afternoon tea session with Julie Hiramine who shared precious tips on how to strengthen mother-daughter relationships by living out godly values. The “Daughters of the King” event was open to all primary 4 to 6 girls in Silver Boxes and their mums. Here are some of the comments received after the tea session. ​ The Mothers “I was trying to hold up in many moments during the session. There were so many personal moments as my child is more mature than others of the same age. The lessons/sharing were so practical for me. It made me miss my late mother.” “It's a wonderful reminder to spend special one-on-one time with my daughter despite the busy schedule of a mum. Thank you for organizing this event. God Bless! P.S. I can help out in the next event.” “It’s great how both my daughter and myself are aligned in pursuing her dream. It really touched me that she already knows what she wants and that helps me to support her specifically.” The Daughters “Well, it's a bonding experience & I learned about things that are able to help me (e.g. the Kallos magazine). Now my mother and I have grown closer. I know that she is there when I need her and always will be. She will always love me.” “It allowed me to have some quality time with my mon and I was also able to open up and I learnt more about her and she learnt more about me!” “It has helped me. Showing to me the importance of having a good relationship with God and my mom.” You may also like Share Testimony 2018 Strengthening Our Marriage Children's Ministry Family Life

2007 Vision of Filipino Fellowship To be a community of passionate and matured Filipinos, effective for Christ in Singapore and the nations. Rev Lorna Khoo This vision has been the guiding principle of the Filipino Fellowship (FF) and has never been more relevant than in this 75th Anniversary year of PLMC. ​ The ministry of equipping and building up the FF members and sending them out as effective ambassadors of reconciliation for Christ's kingdom is even older than PLMC's 123Go! missions vision. By leaving their homeland, the FF members have taken the first step in their journey of faith, trusting in God for everything, including provision and protection in an unfamiliar land. For them, they have already been "sent out”. Although their initial motivation for leaving the Philippines was probably an economic one, there is no doubt that God's plan for our FF members are being fulfilled in Singapore. Many who joined the FF have seen their lives transformed and changed by the power of the Holy Spirit. Very often, we not only see their lives transformed, but they will bring back their new-found obedience in a faithful God when they return home. In fact, even the lives of their employers and their families can benefit from them. Often, we do not realize the potential power they have as our “missionaries from within” as they live and work with Singaporean families who may not have come into the saving grace of God. They have the opportunity to influence the families they work with, the young children who depend on them or the elderly under their care. They are living testimonies of God's goodness in their lives - up close and very, very personal. They can be blessings to others because they have first been blessed.

1989 How Computers Benefited Visually Impaired Albert Toh Society today is well entrenched in the computer age. We see computers everywhere - covering almost every aspect of everyday life. However, in all these advances, technology for the visually impaired tended to lag behind. Although there were speech synthesizers available to help visually impaired people gain access to the world of computers, further technological advances was needed to make computer-generated information even more readily accessible to them. With the advent of the Eureka A4, we are one step closer to realizing this dream. ​ But what, you may ask, is the Eureka A4 all about? This unique and versatile piece of equipment is actually a personal computer that has been specially designed for the visually impaired. The visually impaired refer to it as their Electronic Secretary. An obvious feature that seem to be amiss is that it has no screen and you may be wondering how the visually impaired user interacts with the Eureka. You may also like Share Testimony 1989 VI Retreat 2006 Camp for Visually Impaired Children Ministry to the Visually Impaired Features It has a built-in speech synthesizer that speaks out all the information. Besides, it has a hosts of other functions, some of which I shall briefly describe here. Note Taker: For taking notes during lectures, meetings, tele- phone conversations, etc; Word Processor: A professional, powerful Word-Processor for writing reports, letters and even books which can then be printed out on either a standard inkprint printer or braille embosser. In fact, this article was prepared with the aid of the Eureka word processor. Diary: A reminder for all forthcoming appointments; Alarm Clock & Calendar: Time and date keeping functions supplemented by a stop watch and a countdown timer; Scientific Calculator: A general purpose calculator incorporating scientific functions; Telephone Modem: Access to computer networks and databases via telephone; Telephone Directory: To store telephone numbers and addresses. It has an automatic telephone dialer; Basic Interpreter: Allows for basic programming; Music Composer: Allows the composition of music for serious work or entertainment. These are but some of the features available on the Eureka which are very useful.. Designed and produced in Australia, the Eureka A4 has helped many visually impaired people in their everyday life. Students have been using it for their assignments. Our full-time Church Worker uses it to prepare the weekly Order of Worship in Braille and other printed materials. Visually impaired tele phonists now have a faster means of accessing telephone numbers and addresses. Computer enthusiasts can now write Basic programmes as well as machine language programmes. Its potentials seem unlimited. It is the visually impaired who must use his initiative to exploit its potential to the fullest. The only limitation is its cost. A single unit cost A$2,700/-. This makes it beyond the reach of most visually impaired people. Since the Eureka A4 opens up many new opportunities for the visually impaired in education and employ ment, please pray with us that God will provide the funds so that more visually impaired people can benefit from it.
