Dear Church,

Greetings in the wonderful name of Jesus!

First and foremost, on behalf of all the Board members, I would like to thank everyone who has and will be pledging to the 5th Arise and Build from the bottom of my heart. It is through your spiritual support and financial generosity all these years that allow us to do what we are doing today. Our ministries did not just cope or survive. We thrive because of your unceasing love towards God and the house of God. For that, I want to thank you once again.

In the next couple of months, we will be busy designing and finalizing the drawing of our new building. After that, we will need to submit the drawing to our local authorities one more time for approval. All these may take a lot of time, effort and perseverance, thus I would like to ask all of us to pray and intercede on a regular basis.

Gather with your family and friends to pray, as we commit this whole project into the hands of God. Let’s also pray for God to send His angels to build a hedge of protection around our church and all of us. This is not an easy task. The devil is not going to cheer us on. It is going to be challenging at times. But I believe that as long as we stay together as one, we will build what He wants us to build.

Church, as we grow larger in size and older in age, let us not lose our first love and fervor for Jesus. We need to continually remind ourselves that we are doing all these because we seek to seek His Kingdom first. Our desire is to see God’s desires accomplished. Along the way, we will be blessed. And when that day comes, let us not forget that it is God who gives us the power to gain wealth - causing us to be a blessing to others.

And for that, there is a reason for us to Arise and Build!

Building with you,

KEV
