Growing Roots ~ Bearing Fruit

 BEARING FRUIT:

LHMC FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN 2017

Living Hope Methodist Church will be 26 years old this August. God has been faithful to us. We started out worshipping in homes and borrowed chapels, but 13 years ago God blessed us with a beautiful sanctuary right here in Tampines Street 33. And our community has grown! We have ministered to people in Tampines, Changi, Bedok, Pasir Ris, and now, Sengkang and Punggol. For a season, we also ministered in Timor Leste.

Currently, we run a Befrienders’ Club for students at East Spring Primary School, host Youth For Christ groups, and run a children’s club and other activities for children from the neighbourhood. We work closely with St Luke’s ElderCare (Changkat), Prisons Fellowship Singapore and Care Corner Family Service Centre (Tampines). And we organise the Alpha course every year.

In line with the second part of our theme for 2017 and 2018, Bearing Fruit, the LCEC feels led to increase the scope of our ministries. We want to reach the students of nearby campuses because of our strategic location and the potential to expand our student ministry in the area. To help widen our outreach we plan to employ a campus and outreach ministry staff, and replace some of our facilities to cater to expanded ministry needs. We are seeking to raise the following:

In order to raise the required funds, we are organising a dinner to raise $170,000. The Fundraising Dinner will be held on Saturday, 19 August 2017 at the Fairmont Singapore, in conjunction with our 26th Anniversary. A sponsor will underwrite the dinner cost. To raise the balance $180,000, we will ask for help from our sister churches and other organisations.  The prices of the tickets are as follows:

More information on Fundraising Campaign 2017 will be shared in the coming weeks. Do keep the fundraising committee and campaign in your prayers. We pray that you will join us in the campaign so that we can expand our ministries and bear fruit for the Lord!
