Proclamation
When Jacob awoke from his sleep, he thought,
“Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was not aware of it.”
He was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place!
This is none other than the house of God;
this is the gate of heaven.”
(Genesis 28:16-17)

Announcements
A very warm welcome to everyone who's visiting us for the first time this morning. We are delighted to have you here.
There will be morning tea after the worship service. Feel free to stay behind and enjoy a time of fellowship.
Floral Offering: A floral offering form for 2020 is available on the Usher desk. All brothers and sisters are welcome to register if the Spirit moves you.
The stairs outside the first-floor hall are currently closed for maintenance. Due to health and safety reason, please do not use the side stairs until further notice.
Church Expansion: Give thanks to the Lord, our new building has passed the Council’s final inspection. We are now in the process of applying for the Certificate of Code of Compliance (CCC). Please continue to pray for this final phase of the project.
The church has hired a new cleaning company this month, and they will be responsible to clean the whole church building. Small groups are no longer required to share the cleaning duty. Thank you all for everyone’s contribution in the past and please continue to keep this building clean and tidy.
Last week, we discovered that there are a lot of toys in the baby room. Due to the limited space, the church can only accept a limited number of donated toys. The rest of the toys will be placed near the door outside the baby room. If you have donated these toys, please reclaim the toys as soon as you can. In the future, if you wish to donate any items to the church, please contact Stanley Yu or Wynne Wong first. The church will decide if we can accept them according to our needs.
