LCS – One in Prayer for Queenstown Lutheran Church (QLC)
and Lutheran Church in Singapore (LCS)
Items for APRIL 2025 – QLC and LCS
From March 2025 forward, we have added on prayer items for the LCS as a whole, on top of the prayers for the individual congregations. It is fitting that we should all pray as one for the concerns of the LCS, under which we are one church. We thank our Bishop for sharing the LCS prayer items.
Please cover QLC and LCS in the Prayers of the Church, as well as in your Prayer Meetings and small group meetings. Do encourage your members to pray for them during their family or personal prayer times.
Pastors have the option to cover the items summarily, in a single Sunday or over any number of Sundays for the month. Pastors should also feel free to contact each other for more details and clarifications regarding the items listed, so as to pray with better understanding.

Prayer Pointers for LCS
1. Pray for the coming ExCo election.
Please pray for the 29th AGM’s ExCo election in May, pray that God will prepare a group of dedicated and God-fearing people to be elected into the ExCo, including the Bishop, Secretary, Treasurer, both Chinese and English Clergy rep and Lay rep, and that they will be able to work together in one accord.
2. Pray for our NextGen Lutheran Internship Program.
We give thanks to God for a team of dedicated and committed clergies and Lay persons who helped to plan and organise this program for our youth and young adults. Our aim is to raise up a group of young leaders in LCS. Therefore, please pray for our pastors, for wisdom to identify the suitable candidates for this program, and pray that the young people will be excited about this program and willing to take part in it.
3. Pray for the properties transfer to the LCS.
There are properties that we are still in the midst of transferring to the LCS’ trustees. But we are unable to locate the original trust deed which the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) requires. Our LCS trustees have signed and submitted a Statutory Declaration that the trust deed is lost/misplaced. The SLA has issued new title deeds in the name of the American missionaries which are already received by our lawyer who is arranging for their transfer to our LCS trustees.
4. Pray for the TGNC relocation.
Thai Good news Centre has been using BLC for their Sunday Divine Service since March 2023. But it is out of the way and not very convenient for most of the Thai people to come for worship, especially if inviting new comers and for doing outreach as well. Thank God for His provision! We have had the permission from the Holy Trinity Church (Anglican) to use one of their rooms which can accommodate 40-60 people for their Worship Service from March 2025. Pray that TGNC members can settle down at this new location and that it will be able to draw more Thais to the Centre. Pray for Sis Kawee who is our sole worker there, that she will gain strength and wisdom to continue developing the ministry.
2025年三月新加坡信义会的代祷事项
1. 请为即将到来的执行委员会选举祷告
请为2025年5月在LCS第29届年议会（AGM）上举行的执行委员会（ExCo）选举祷告，求神预备一群敬畏神并愿意委身服侍的人进入执委会，包括会督、文书、财政、中英文牧职代表及平信徒代表。愿他们能在圣灵的引导下同心合一地事奉。
2. 请为“下一代信义会领袖实习生计划”祷告
我们为一群忠心和委身的牧者及平信徒感恩，他们为我们的青年及青成年人共同策划和组织这个计划，旨在培养LCS的年轻领袖。请为我们的教牧祷告，求神赐下智慧，使他们能辨识适合的候选人，并让年轻人对这个计划充满热情，愿意积极参与。
3. 请为教会产业转移祷告
目前仍有房产正在办理转移至LCS受托人的手续。然而，新加坡土地管理局（SLA）要求提供原始信托契约，但我们无法找到。LCS的受托人已签署并提交法定声明，证明契约遗失或错置。请祷告，求神让SLA接受这份声明，使转让顺利进行。新加坡土地管理局（SLA）已经以美国宣教士的名义签发了新的契约，我们的律师已经收到了这些契约，他正在安排把它们转移给LCS 受托人。
4. 请为泰人福音中心（TGNC）的迁移祷告
泰人福音中心自2023年3月起一直在BLC举行主日敬拜，但由于地点较偏远，不便于泰人信徒及新朋友前来参加敬拜和福音事工。感谢神的预备！从2025年3月起，圣三一堂（圣公会）已允许TGNC使用其可容纳40-60人的房间作为敬拜场所。请祷告，愿TGNC的会众能适应新地点，并吸引更多泰国人参与。也请为单独负责事工的Kawee姐妹祷告，愿神赐她力量和智慧，使她能继续拓展事工。
