Prayer and Praise
- After a 2-year break, we have resumed morning teas and lunches especially on special occasions in the life of the church to encourage more vibrant fellowship and having something attractive for visitors and newcomers to enjoy with us.
Please ask that God would use these occasions especially to bring many non-Christians to experience the love that God gives to his people. - Praise God for the start of in-person meetings for our Mandarin service last Sunday 24th April. Please pray that this service would open doors for Mandarin-speaking people in Randwick and surrounding suburbs to come to know Jesus and call ESCCC their home church.
