堂会介绍 – Bedok Lutheran Church

堂会介绍

Christianity originated with Jesus Christ. The first Church or Christian Group was started with Jesus leading His 12 disciples. The disciples gave of themselves wholeheartedly to the Lord’s service and were from different social status and occupations. However, they shared one thing in common – the singular commitment to their calling.

29 of our contemporaries shared the same commitment to the cause of Christian outreach when they, led by Pastor Nelson, became the first members of Bedok Lutheran Church. Like the first followers of Jesus Christ, they were spurred by a common vision and unified by a common spirit of service to the Lord. They set their minds and hearts to answering the Great Commission in Bedok, unhindered by their varied backgrounds and occupations.
