How many of us know the story of how our church started? Or wonder why we chose to feature Habakkuk 3:19 outside our church office?

When Pastor Steven Ting saw this verse, it moved him to tears, reminding him of a time when the old church Ephratah Assembly was on the brink of closing despite many pastors' efforts to lead the church. When the opportunity was offered once again, only Senior Pastor Lawrence Ong (back then a lay pastor) felt God's calling. With his wife, Pastor Helen, they said "yes" to God's mission, empowered by the word God had given to them in Habbukuk 3:19.

Today, Pastor Helen reminds us: "The one who calls you and CNL is faithful, and He will do it. To Him who is able to keep you and CNL from stumbling, and to present you faultless before His glorious presence, be all glory, majesty, power, and authority forevermore."

Let us continue to trust in God's strength and faithfulness as we journey together. To learn more about our heritage, visit cnl.org.sg/our-story 🌿✨
