Life in PLMC told through the eyes of worshippers and staff. In this issue, we feature two heartening testimonies from the Youth Cebu Mission Trip.

In this Year of Empowerment, we know that unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labour in vain. So even as we seek to enable ourselves, we must first seek the Lord in prayer, worship and devotion, which we will do as a church from 1 Mar to 9 Apr. 

We have prepared a 40-day devotional to help us with our prayer and devotional life during Lent. The devotions will be posted in PLMC TODAY every Saturday from 25 Feb onwards. We have a limited number of printed copies for those who have difficulty reading the devotions online which will be available for collection from the Church Reception from 25 Feb onwards and at the Fellowship Hall on Sun 26 Feb.

Click HERE to view the Devotions.

We will come together as a church to pray every Wed in Mar, 8pm, Sanctuary. Come and be empowered!
