PASTORAL PAGE BAPTISM AND TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP by Dn Elaine Ng This weekend, we will witness the baptism of 11 brothers and sisters (3 ES, 8 CM). Let us rejoice with them as they publicly testify that they are followers of Jesus Christ. Under our Church Constitution, the 11 of them will automatically become members of our church. Let us also welcome them and 4 others (2 ES, 2CM) who have successfully applied for transfer of membership into our Church. May we be encouraged by their testimonies and also their desire to obey Christ's command for believers to be baptised. During this weekend's baptismal services, you will hear these words of Jesus, comprising a command and a promise offered to us all: “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20). Read More > |
