Welcome to AMKPC blog online!

Hello hello!!
How are all of you doing? Happy New Year! Hope that 2005 will be a year of joy and peace for you, and a year of abundant blessings. It gives me great pleasure to bring you this blog to keep you up to date with things in church while you are all away. I would like to dedicate this to all you guys who are far away from home, and keeping us in your thoughts. I will try and post an entry at least once a week, or failing that once a fortnight, depending on how things go, but I would also like to encourage all of you to post your comments and thoughts on the happenings as well. This is your page, and I will do my best to also communicate your thoughts to the relevant parties in church.

Some news from home in case you haven't heard:
1. Pastor Colin has resigned over his health concerns. His blood pressure had reached very high levels (160/140 as opposed to normal 120/80), and he was beginning to suffer from blackouts and very severe migraine. Effectively immediately he has stopped work in church, and he is now continuing with his studies and also resting and taking a break.

2. Beng Kwee has given birth to baby Alethia Lim yesterday. Both mother and daughter are healthy. Initial reports confirm that baby looks very much like daddy....

3. Wei Wei has also given birth last week to little baby Cayley. Both are also well, although Cayley had to be re-admitted for a couple of days due to escalated jaundice. She has since been discharged and is now at home.

4. Last Sunday we moved into the new church building and held our first meeting there since the completion of the building. It is a very nice building, and we have finally gotten round the problem of poor acoustics through a fairly simple solution; the floor is carpeted. Makes a big world of difference.

5. Inaugural service is on 15 Jan, and we have invited something like 700 guests. Big logistics operation as you can imagine. The whole church has been activated to help out, and we are also hosting a dinner after the service. Will let you guys know more after the event.
