Gift Of Love 2018

It is that joyful season of Christmas when we seek to give to the community. Our volunteers fanned out all over the island as part of the Gift Of Love initiative, bringing Christmas cheer and practical help to the residents in various constituencies, social service organisations, and nursing homes. We showed God’s love to about 7,000 underprivileged people with about $470,000 in practical gifts. We will also be reaching out to over 11,000 people in Cambodia, Indonesia, India, Myanmar, Thailand and the Philippines through our Gift Of Love Global programme.

We are thankful for the opportunity to reach out to over 5,000 prison inmates in Cambodia and Myanmar through our Gift Of Love Global initiative. Not only did they receive gift packs and delicious meals, many also received Jesus Christ as Saviour as the good news was preached!

We kicked off this year’s Gift Of Love 2018 activities with a Christmas Gift Of Love lunch party for 300 underprivileged families in West Coast GRC and Pioneer Constituency where they were blessed with $60,000 in supermarket vouchers and gift trolleys filled with daily essentials.

Held on Saturday, 1 December 2018 at Boon Lay Community Centre, the lunch party was co-organised by our church with West Coast GRC and Pioneer Constituency Grassroots Organisations (GROs), and was the first of three Christmas Gift Of Love events held this year.

The guest of honour, Mr S Iswaran, Minister for Communications and Information, Minister-in-charge of Trade Relations, and Adviser for West Coast GRC GROs, together with our church council member Deacon Matthew Kang and Pastor Lawrence Lim, presented the supermarket vouchers sponsored by our church to the families at each table during the lunch party.

As the families tucked into lunch, our church’s creative team presented a multicultural programme featuring items like Singai Naadu, Ku Mohon, 小人物的心声, We Are Singapore, Christmas carols and a rendition of the popular national song, Home.

This morning, our pastors, leaders and volunteers also brought Christmas cheer to more than 2,000 underprivileged people as they visited families around Singapore. They gave each household $100 in supermarket vouchers.

This year, through the Gift Of Love events, New Creation Church will be giving about $470,000 worth of gifts including supermarket and retail vouchers, as well as gift trolleys filled with daily essentials to about 7,000 underprivileged people. Since 2014, our church has helped over 67,000 people in Singapore and the region through Gift Of Love with a total giving worth about $2 million.
