Dear BMC members and friends,
Greetings to each and every one of you. We hope you are keeping well.
The Bible tells us that “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13).
It is with this in mind that I want to encourage all of us, be it those working in essential services and at the frontlines of our Covid-19 battle or the people staying at home during this circuit-breaker period, to continually trust in the Lord. Indeed, God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
We believe that we can not only overcome this period of extraordinary circumstances but continue to thrive in it. If the current circumstances in the world has not brought you to a time of extended prayer, do consider doing so.
When it comes to inner growth and intimacy with God, we want to encourage you to continue in your daily devotions and to attend our weekly online services.
Of interest to some of us is the BMC daily podcast available to us during this circuit-breaker period as well as the Awakened, Aligned, Assigned online seminar.
Financial help and pastoral assistance are available to those who require. If you know of someone who may benefit from these, do contact us.
We are also in the midst of assisting in food distribution to migrant workers via our partnership with Alliance of Guest Worker Outreach (AGWO) and you may wish to generously give to this worthy cause as well.
We are now in the midst of waiting for a reply from the authorities regarding the hosting of rough sleepers in our premises during this period of time and will inform the church community when more details are available.
Finally, this season has reminded us of the importance of family and spiritual family. If you have Christian family members, it will be a great time to start family devotions. A simple reading of scripture and praying for one another will be a good way to start. If you are looking for a DG to meet online, do give Alicia a call or send an email to aliciacheo@bmc.org.sg
Keep safe and healthy. And till we meet again, may the Lord bless your coming in and going out!
Blessings
Pastor Kay Huat
