Thank you, mission partners and volunteers

ABOUT 80 MPVs (Mission Partners and Volunteers) turned up at the MPV Appreciation Nite 2007 at Sophia Blackmore Hall, Methodist Centre, on Jan 19, 2007.


It was a way for the Methodist Missions Society (MMS) to appreciate and thank all its MPVs who gave their time, energy, resources and expertise selflessly to serve God and His people.


Every MPV is important in the mission of building God's Kingdom of Love.


An MPV, Ms Tan Wai Jia, 19, read her children's book "Kite Song", which she also illustrated. She wrote the book after a visit to Sophia's Home in Kathmandu, Nepal, and staying with the home's residents.


About $1,000 was raised that evening for the construction of Sophia's Home and for the education of the home's residents.


The Rev Dr Norman Wong, the MMS Executive Director, gave a quick run-through of the MMS' vision, ministries and missionaries.


The evening ended with every volunteer receiving a Certificate of Appreciation and an umbrella as a token of the MMS' appreciation.
