Visitors and More

We have had a few more visitors in church lately.  In April we welcomed the Trinidad family from the Philippines.  Pastor Trinidad is the minister of the Maranatha Protestant Reformed Church there, and he was not able to be here over Sunday.  His son's family lives in Singapore.  Here we are with the rest of his family:


Pastor Trinidad's granddaughters, daughters, and wife

This past Sunday Rev. & Margaret Laning and John & Val VanBaren were in church, stopping in Singapore on their way home from Myanmar.  My husband and I spent an hour with them on Monday.


We had another infant baptism at the beginning of April.


Isaiah Chua, son of Lee Yang & Joanna

The youth had an outing in April, playing Captain's Ball and frisbee at Bishan Park.


We are back into the hot season here, so our family spent an afternoon at the beach last week.




We had another public holiday last Wednesday and spent a few hours with Curtis & Esther and Kong Wee & Dorcas.

Sports Day

May 1 was a public holiday, so our church had its annual sports day.  This year it was held at beautiful Labrador Park, on the coast.




When everyone had arrived, we were split into groups for a scavenger hunt through the park.

There was a lot of World War II history in the park.

The evening concluded with devotions, singing, and dinner.
