Gift Of Love 2024
The Gift Of Love season is upon us! Over the last decade, we’ve had the privilege of blessing thousands of families, seniors, ex-offenders, migrant workers, and individuals with special needs in Singapore and beyond, regardless of their race and religion, during the Christmas season.
Our programmes and initiatives are impacting more lives in Singapore and beyond our borders such as to countries like Cambodia, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines.

We partnered with North East Community Development Council to bless 500 households with supermarket vouchers as part of our Gift Of Love project to serve the community.
This morning, we organised a special Christmas luncheon for some 120 of these households in the North East District. Our team, including Pastor Lawrence Lim and Pastor Pauline Ching, were joined by guests-of-honour, Minister for Social and Family Development Masagos Zulkifli, Mayor Desmond Choo, and Dr Charlene Chen, Second Advisor to Tampines GRC Grassroots Organisations, to personally present the vouchers.
Our Gift Of Love project also saw us reach out to the residents of the Buona Vista GRC and bless about 140 low-income elderly residents with supermarket vouchers and gift packs of household items. Our team, including Deacon Matthew Kang, was honoured to have Minister Chan Chun Sing join us at the event and present New Creation Community Services with a token of appreciation for our contributions.

We had the joy of celebrating Christmas with Ci Yuan Community Club at our Christmas Gift Of Love dinner event where some 96 families received supermarket vouchers and greeting cards from our church.

This weekend, our volunteers were at Chua Chu Kang where, together with Guest of Honour, Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong, we distributed our Gift Of Love vouchers to over 80 low-income families. We also met more than 50 of these families at a Christmas luncheon and brought their children on a stationery shopping trip!

Our Gift Of Love activities continued in the Marsiling constituency, where we distributed 1,000 supermarket vouchers to the residents! Mr Zaqy Mohamad, Senior Minister of State for Manpower and Defence, joined Deacon Matthew Kang and our volunteers to personally hand out the vouchers. Youths from our church also brought the spirit of Christmas with carols to the residents at the event.
The event were also featured in two news reports, which are available online:

Our Gift Of Love community project extends to the seniors at Commonwealth! With a mission to love people one at a time, our volunteers personally gave out handwritten greeting cards from our church and supermarket vouchers to bring joy to the seniors in this season where they may be feeling especially isolated.

It’s the season of giving, and our Global Gift of Love event is underway! We visited villages in Cambodia, reaching over 550 children from single-parent families and another 190 families.
The children experienced the joy of Christmas as they sang carols, learned about the true reason for the season—Jesus—and enjoyed gifts, home-cooked meals, and a wonderful time of celebration.
What a beautiful way to share the joy of Christmas!
