Visitors to William Booth Corps

It's always a joy to welcome visitors to our church. This morning we welcomed a number of comrades from other Corps who were here for Advisory Council of Salvation Army Soldiers. The Territorial Commander, Colonel Lyndon Buckingham has set up this council comprising members from different Corps in Singapore and Malaysia. The Colonel seeks grassroots input on various subjects that are important as we move into mission action. We pray for the following members.

CSM Tan Keng Tong from Kuching Corps
CSM Tan Seow Hwee from Penang Corps
CSM Michael Lau from William Booth Corps
CSM  Anthony Simon from Kota Kinabalu Corps
CSM  Palan Mani from Singapore Eratchippu  Corps
YL     Esther Cheah from Kuala Lumpur Corps
MML Vincent Wong from Singapore Central Corps
Sister Elaine Hwee from Singapore Central Corps
YL Rachael Yeo from Balestier Corps
CML Evelyn Ho from Balestier Corps

These comrades have been sharing in their first meeting during the weekend at Praisehaven Retreat Centre.

We also welcomed Commissioners David and Grace Bringans, former Territorial Leaders who are in Singapore for holidays.

How pleased my wife and I were to meet some good friends from the Philippines. Lieut. Colonels Virgilio and Maria Luis Menia. We were stationed in the Philippines when they got married. We cherish happy memories of times spent with them especially during our visit to their Corps to conduct Harvest Festival at Malingau. They are spending a short vacation with mutual friends, Lieut. Colonel Paul and Evelyn Posadas.

We thank God for bringing into our lives so many friends who have been a blessing to us.
