First Farewells

As our time in Singapore comes to an end, we have had several gatherings with individuals, couples, or whole Bible study groups who want to say their goodbyes to us.  More of these gatherings are planned in the next few weeks.

The Wednesday ladies' Bible study group who meets at our place had a farewell lunch for me two weeks ago.  After our Bible study, Jean gave an exhortation on Ecclesiastes 3 and we sang a Psalter number together, and then we had lunch.  Excuse my tears on these pictures--I will miss this group of ladies!

A few days later the Shalom Bible Study group had a farewell dinner for us.

Elder Leong gave an exhortation, and a few other people talked as well.
