Anniversary Greetings (Part 2)


From Rev Pong Sen Yiew (Life B-P Church, Singapore)

Greetings in the Precious Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
My family and I convey our heartiest congratulations to the Pastor, Elders, Session, and members of Hope BP Church on the joyous occasion of your 37th Anniversary Thanksgiving. 
May the hearts of the Hopefuls be filled with praises to our Heavenly Father as you rehearse His faithfulness to you over the past years.
While the Lord tarries in His coming, may you continue to remain "stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord" (I Cor 15:58).

In Christ, 
Rev Yiew Pong Sen, Life BP Church, Singapore 

From Rev Lim Yew Cheng (Evangel B-P Church, Kuala Lumpur)

Dear Rev Ki, the Board of Elders and Session of Hope BPC,
Congratulations on the commemoration of your 37th Anniversary. We have always wondered how you have been kept together for such a long time and still remain a vibrant and robust community of faith. Then we are reminded that you are the Church of Jesus Christ, loved by God and redeemed by the precious blood of our Saviour. He had borne you on eagles’ wings and for thirty seven glorious years had established you where you are.
In all these, we give glory to God and EBPC rejoices with you, reminding you of the goodness of God, with the words of the Psalmist
“Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.” (Psalm 127:1).
Hope BPC, blessed thirty-seven years!

In Christ,
YC Lim
On behalf of Evangel BPC, Kuala Lumpur

From Rev Mathews Abraham (Associate Missionary)

Blessed be the name of the Lord. We rejoice with Pastor Ki, the Church Session, and the brethren on this milestone. Thank God for raising Hope BP Church for times like these. A sweet testimony of the Lord Jesus Christ rises in every remembrance of you. By God’s grace, you have done well in the last 37 years. We thank God that through your faithful ministry of proclaiming the inerrant, infallible Word of God, you continue to hold fast to faithful doctrine and do the work of the Lord. He is coming soon, let us continue to occupy till He comes. May God refresh the whole church in His spirit to serve the Lord steadfastly and wholeheartedly with greater zeal until His soon return. It is our prayer that your session and congregation will continue to “…be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper” (Psalm 1:3). 

From Evangelist Ang Liang Phoa (Gappi Filadelfia, Batam)

Greetings from Gappi Filadelfia, Batam on your 37th Church Anniversary.
Our heart rejoices with you on this special occasion. May Hope B-P Church always shine for the Lord in its various ministries. Our Almighty God be gracious to you as you are faithful in extending His Kingdom.

Romans 11:36- “For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.”

From Sis Wen Min Lau (Hope BPC 1995-2000), Singapore

All praise and glory be to God for 37 years of ministry at Hope B-P Church! Thank God for raising up this church, and using her to build up the faith of His saints, near and far. His abiding presence and unfailing goodness have sustained you throughout the years, and our Almighty God will continue to provide for every need. May you continue to serve the Lord wholeheartedly and do His work, until He returns.

Matthew 5: 14,16 - “14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”

From Bro David Chua (Hope BPC 1991-1994), Kuala Lumpur
