Thanksgiving
We give thanks and praise to Jehovah Rapha, our Healer Lord for the recovery of the 71-year-old grandfather (aka Case 41) who worships at PLMC. All glory to God who has heard the cries and prayers of His people and answers in His good time.
The grandfather has sent us a beautiful thank you note which we publish here:
Dear Pastors, Leaders, Brothers and Sisters,
I sincerely thank all of you for upholding me in prayer during my hospitalisation. Thank you for persevering in unceasing prayer, asking God for His mercy to release His healing touch upon me.
God had heard and answered your prayers, I am healed from COVID-19 and restored to health!
For 67 days, I was fighting for my life and recuperating in TTSH and finally, I was able to be discharged and returned to be with my loving family on 14 Apr.
Without your selfless support, without this faithful and merciful God, I would not be who I am -- a renewed person today!
Thank you Lord, all glory be unto You! Hallelujah!
With the nation-wide closure of all non-essential businesses and offices including our Church Office, we understand that there will be anxiety, frustration, sadness, anger, helplessness and a whole slew of other emotions.
As your pastors, we want you to know that we are here for you.
You can email us at pastors@plmc.org or call us at 6285 1234
Send prayer requests to prayernet@plmc.org.

Living Out Hebrews 10:24-25
And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another — and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
We know a lot of our messaging these past weeks, based on the government advisories, have led to a bit of confusion as at first, we could meet in groups no bigger than 250, then a maximum of 10, and now only with our immediate families.
We thank God for technology that has allowed us to meet online. It wasn't too long ago that we were thrilled by WhatsApp and video calls which are now part of everyday life. So let's continue to "meet together" online.
We can also "spur one another on" through social media, messaging apps, and good old telephone calls.
