Our Church

Domestic Helpers Fellowship (DHF) – Over 40 helpers will be going to Rainforest Wild Asia this Sunday after their Bible Studies in the morning. Pray for good weather and safety for all. We thank God for the sponsorship from Serving In Mission’s (SIM’s) Indonesian Diaspora Ministry. Pray for the 16 non-DHF members who are attending that they will enjoy the fellowship and be keen to visit again. Pray also for our regular DHF members who are believers to be good befrienders and for the light and love of Christ to shine through them.

Additions & Alterations Building Project – The tender submissions will be coming in this week, pray for the Lord to guide our team of consultants in the tender evaluation process and wisdom in our selection of a contractor to undertake this project. The Audio-Visual Tender was issued this past week, ask the Lord to prepare a good vendor for this specialized work.  Pray for God’s continued guidance in the design details to ensure not only for the physical structure to be built well but for it to meet the needs of multiple usages of the space for gospel purposes.

Radion Trip (24 May – 2 June) – Our sisters Audrey and Steffi will be joining 7 others from other churches on a trip to Radion, Thailand. In addition to visiting the villagers of Khek Noi, they will be running an early intervention camp for children at risk. Pray for safety, and that their time will be encouraging for both the Singapore team and the Radion staff there. May God open their eyes and their hearts to see what He is doing in that part of the world

Our World

India-Pakistan Conflict (CNA, 10 May) – Praise God that both countries have agreed to a ceasefire last weekend. The fighting between these 2 South Asian countries has been the worst in nearly 3 decades, threatening to erupt into a full-scale war in one of the world’s most volatile and densely populated regions. Pray for both countries, which according to Joshua Project, are least reached. With only 1% Christians in Pakistan and 2.2% Christians in India. May the peace of Christ flow from these small communities of Jesus followers to their wider communities.

Nepal – Thank God for Ps HR and CT who are into their second week in a remote part of West Nepal. They are there to bring encouragement and an opportunity to study God’s word for some key leaders of our partner. May these times of sitting in God’s word bring a renewal of the mind and greater love for God for all these leaders. Pray that God’s love and truth can flow out also to their communities.

1. Our deepest condolences to the family of:
   • Mrs Amy Fung on the Homegoing of her mother, Mdm Susan Lee Seok Khim, aged 65, on 9 May 2025. 
   • Mr Isaac Ng on the Homegoing of his mother, Mdm Susan Lim Chor Cheng, aged 74, on 15 May 2025.
     Please uphold the bereaved families in prayer.
2. Ps Dev was preaching at Neighbourhood Church last Sunday, 11 May.
3. Danny spoke at Mt. Carmel BP Church’s Young Adults Retreat from 15-18 May 2025.
4. Ps Zhiwen is preaching at Emmanuel BP Church this morning.

By Ps Dev Menon

At the upcoming ACM, members will be voting on whether to approve the finances needed to embark on our long-awaited A&A project: to upgrade our building and to develop the 5^th storey.  

Why do we need more space? 

Firstly to accommodate the growth in our current ministries. As mentioned in some of our meetings over the last three years, our weekend room usage is almost at its maximum. We also need more large-sized rooms to accommodate some of our bigger gatherings. 

Secondly, we anticipate more gospel opportunities in our neighbourhood due to our increasing collaboration with St. Luke’s Eldercare and the impending completion of the two new HDB BTO projects by June 2025 and June 2026 respectively, comprising almost 2000 households. 

When will this happen?

Though we had initially voted to proceed at the end of 2022, we postponed the project until our land lease was successfully renewed for another 30 years. Now that has been fully settled, at a much-reduced quantum, the Session decided to begin the project by June 2025, should members vote yes. 

We estimate the project will take 1.5 years, since we will request the contractors not to work on Sundays, so that our worship services will not be disrupted.

How much will this cost?

Seven contractors are right now preparing their tender submission, and the total cost of the project, including all the consultants fees, duties and government charges is estimated at up to S$7.5M. This will also include costs to repair and repaint our current facilities. The final budget needed for the project will be presented at the ACM, once all the quotes have come in and been evaluated. 

How will we pay for all this?

We thank God, that because of the significantly reduced land lease renewal cost, we have a reasonable sum of more than S$5M left in our General Project Fund. We will raise the remainder through giving to the GPF, and if necessary, utilise some funds from our GMF. Ultimately, we believe that our God and Father will provide for all our needs.

What do I have to do?

(1) Pray that this project is in line with God’s will to expand His Kingdom work, through our local church. (2) Come for the ACM, listen to the presentations, ask good questions and vote. (3) Continue to give financially to the work of the gospel here at Zion Bishan.
