Church Visitors (1)

Every year the PRC sends church visitors at the request of CERC, to conduct the same church visitation that is done yearly in the PRC.  This year's church visitors were my dad (Rev. Key) and Rev. Eriks, both of whom brought their wives along!  They arrived early in the morning on March 20 and plan to head home early Monday morning, March 30, Lord willing.

Before they even went to church for their first Sunday here, they were able to visit with many of the members of CERC.  My parents renewed acquaintances, and the Eriks met many of the people for the first time.  The first morning they were here there was a Sunday School outing at the zoo, as it was a break week for Singapore schools.

Thanks to Bee Hua for this collage--She set up a game for

the kids to find different things throughout the zoo.

The kids spent quite a bit of time in the water play area.

The next day, Saturday, there was a youth outing at Bishan Park.

The fellowship with members of the congregation continued throughout this week as well. On Monday we enjoyed a trip to Pulau Ubin, although the day was very hot!

That evening we visited over dinner in the home of Chee Choong and Wan Teng.

On Friday we went to the Jurong Bird Park with Kong Wee & Dorcas's family.

The kids even got to feed the penguins!
