Dear Carmelites,
Thank God for His sovereign grace and mercy in protecting Singapore & the provision of vaccines, test kits, and the safety measures in many places.

In view of the rising number of COVID cases in the community, let us do our part to protect family, friends & our faith community.

1. If you receive notification from MOH about contact with COVID cases, get necessary medical attention immediately or rest at home and join us for online worship instead.
2. For the Eventbrite registration, please register the names of each person coming for the service/event to facilitate contact tracing should the need arise.
3. A gentle reminder to avoid mingling across zones and to leave Clementi Bible Centre quickly after the service.

Let’s daily look to God for His goodness, grace and mercies and give thanks!

Looking Out For…

As our church members connect with the community through the voucher distribution, we are constantly encountering families that have varied needs, other than financial support. They long for relationship, for listening ears and practical help.

Join our Carmel News channel to learn about how you may share your “5 loaves and 2 fish” for the Lord to satisfy the needs of the community. Look out for these notices we’ll post as the needs arise.
