Updated on 9 May 2020

Dear Gospeliter,

The building is closed, but our ministry is not!
In fact, we need to step up- both A) internally, and B) externally:

A)  Internally:

1. Family Support

Our Family Life Ministry, led by Pastor Kay Hong & his wife, sister May, is facilitating zoom support groups to encourage and strengthen marriages during this challenging period (Circuit Breaker). They aim to strengthen your marriage by helping you to build a right relationship with God, and to understand your God-given roles and responsibilities. Let’s come together to encourage, and to be encouraged by, one another spiritually, so that we may deal with the tension/issues arising during this period better. May we apply the biblical truths in our daily life and build a gospel-centered marriage.

Sundays at 3pm starting with

1. Husbands Fellowship on 10 May |  Zoom link https://bit.ly/35AtE6d

1. Wives Fellowship will be on 17 May |  Zoom link https://bit.ly/3b4XTU4

No Registration required.

2. Bible Studies

1. Christian Education Program

The theme is on “Following Jesus”, and it covers the often neglected but very important engine truths of the Christian life. I will be taking these 7 sessions and I hope you will join me in discovering the “secrets” of the Christian life!
Time: Saturdays 8pm from 9 May on Facebook live (maximum 30 minutes), followed by Q&A on Zoom https://bit.ly/2yAjjeH

2. Small Group Bible Studies

Brother Gheng Mun will hold his zoom sessions on Wednesdays at 3pm, looking at the book of 1^st Peter - register at https://bit.ly/3aDOy5u.  Pastor Robert will hold his zoom sessions on Thursdays at 3.30pm, looking at the book of Ephesians – register at  https://bit.ly/3aKoGVI. We aim to start on 13 and 14 May respectively.  

Besides these new sessions, we also have our regular weekly program (Please see appendix).

3.  Online Children Service for Sonshine KIDS and JUNIORS (P1 to P6)

Besides our Youth, Chinese & Filipino services, our Children ministry has also launched their online Sunday services. Do write in to [email protected] to register if you have not already done so!

B) Externally:

1. Migrant Workers Support

During this Circuit Breaker period, Gospel Light hopes to be a blessing to the migrant workers community. We are working with the Tuas dormitories where our Telugu brethren from the Telugu Christian Gospel Church (TCGC, led by Pastor Jacob) are housed in. We will provide supplementary items like personal hygiene products, soap, shampoo, tea and coffee as the workers get $10 daily for meals. We will need help to transport these items to the dormitories.  We are also partnering Touch International to provide food items to migrant workers now housed in various sports halls.

Target amount for Supporting Migrant Workers = $15,000

2. Safe Sound Sleeping Places or S3Ps

We are working with the Ministry for Social and Family (MSF) to house female Singaporeans (about 6) in our building at 39 Punggol Field Walk during this period.  This includes providing meals for them and befriending/supporting them.
