THERE will be a National Day Thanksgiving Service at St Andrew's Cathedral on Aug 16, 2007 at 7.45 pm.


This is an opportunity for Christians of all denominations to gather to give thanks to God for blessing our nation and our leaders, to pray for the continued well-being and prosperity of our nation, as well as to join other Singaporeans in celebrating the Republic's 42nd National Day.


Participating in the service will be the bishops, heads of churches and representatives from various churches and denominations in Singapore. It is organised by the National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS).


Bishop Dr Robert Solomon, President of the NCCS, will deliver the sermon entitled "The Nation That Is Blessed". It is based on the text from Psalm 33.
Different choirs will enrich the worship by rendering special anthems of praise, including "From Many Shores", a song composed for the nation by Bishop Dr Solomon.
