HIGHLIGHTS
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. – 2 Chronicles 7: 14
As we start the new year, let’s meet to pray in the Sanctuary on Wed 4 Jan 2023 at 8pm. No registration required.
As we heed the Lord’s vision for PLMC to be “A family blessed to bless the community and the nations”, let us intentionally devote the first missions prayer meeting of 2023 to the Lord through worship and prayer on 11 January, 8 to 9.30pm, Jordan Hall (in person). Let’s start the year praying and fasting for God’s empowerment to be upon us as we seek to pray for ourselves and the nations.

4th SUNDAY IN ADVENT - LOVE
This Sunday, we light the fourth candle, the Holy Trinity candle which symbolizes Love as God is Love. John 3:16, the verse on which our faith depends on, says,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” May we obey His commands to love God and neighbour.
