3rd Arise & Build for our Marketplace Building

Today was another history made by City Harvesters.
Another moments which will be remembered by many that will be benefited in near future.

This coming Arise & Build, we are believing God for 22 millions that we could raised as a whole church. And i believed this time, again we will rise up to occasion to give above & beyond.

I would like to thank all those who has pledge sacrificially today & tomolo.

Today was also Elizabeth's big day..
Wanna congrats her over here & have a blissful marriage.

Bb & me went to Jurong Church at 12.30pm to attend eliz's wedding matrimony & we was late for awhile. So by the time we reach there, Pst Derek was already preaching. We went in & sitted at a corner behind the room. Everyone was attentive to wat Pst is talking abt. I also saw Minrui translating for this matrimony. Haha.. Her interpreation was kinda interesting. Haha.

Then once the word sharing was over, they exchange vows, sign contract.. Ops, its marriage covenant.. Followed by the union candles & the Holy Communion before the are announced as Mr & Mrs... Hehe.. Eliz looks gorgeous today & so do the bride.
After the ceremony, we went to have our lunch at the cafe area for the guest. We filled our stomach & went over to another table where all the dramatist sits. There were Sandy, Willy, Bernard, Shawn, Gary(MC for the ceremony), Jeff & gf. We chat for awhile and went in for the photo taking. Everything well well & smooth.
Really happy for the married couples.
Then around 2pm we make our way down to Expo for svc.

Took MRT all the way from Boonlay to Expo.. Was really far.. Haha.. Was wondering it must be very hard for Valor to travel all the way down every single week. Even for CG too.. Yet he is still as faithful as before.

When we reach Expo, we walked over to hall 1 as i need to withdraw $$$.
Then we walk back to MRT station again to buy snacks from 7-11. We then go to svc for prayer meeting before svc starts. Can really see ppls are charged up & prepared for the Building fund.. During Praise & Worship, congregation enters the presence of God easier. Then during preaching, Pst Kong talks abt "The 7 promises of perfection" & "3 things that happen to Abraham that opens the door to fulfill those promises from God".
He talks mainly abt our FAITH.. On how the 'Terror by night' will steal away our faith & so on. It was really a gd message for the congregation. At the end of the svc, many new converts & backsliders responded.

The pleding was not really the highlight of the day as i thot it was. Bcos aft the sermon, Pst told us to pledge in faith as what was spoken from God. Again everything went smoothly. We didnt really pray out loud or something like that but we did pray over this giving that many would be exprience the blessings of God and our miracle stadium in the heart of Singapore. I think maybe its bcos this is the 2nd building fund & also it is not really the actual 2nd building fund thou. For me, i've already pladge for 6 times including this current ones. Not that its nothing new, but as the age group of the church is more mature, so i believed Pst knows that we are mature enough to handle this building fund.

This time i've pledge slightly more than what i had for the previous but nothing to be compared to the amt i gave last time when i was in Hollywood. I really wish to give more or according to the statistics shown for salaried worker but it is really beyond my ability. Anyway, im not discouraged. I believed as long as it is sacrificial, it will please God. Unequal Amount, But Equal Sacrifice was our slogan for Building fund campaigns.

So after svc, we celebrated Minkuan's bday & he got himself a boxer as a present.
After that we all went to Tampines KFC for our dinner before we call it a day.
