LEARN how to cook specialty recipes
from a select group of Methodist leaders, and hear them share
about their private selves - all in a VCD which will hit the shops
for Christmas. At $20, this would make an exclusive gift.
The Bishop, Annual Conference Presidents, District Superintendents,
and some of the spouses, the General Conference Women's Society
of Christian Service (WSCS) President and the WSCS President of
Pentecost Methodist Church (PMC) are whipping up exotic dishes
in their own kitchens, and each will also be talking about a side
of themselves previously unseen and unheard.
The VCD is part of PMC's efforts to raise $4million for its church
extension at Pasir Ris.
Another year-end fund-raising project is the Christmas concert,
"A Ceremony of Carols" on Dec 20 at Mrs Lee Choon Guan
Concert Hall, ACS Barker Road. Professional harpist Huang Yu
Hsin takes centre stage. The evening's entertainment will also
feature choral and instrumental ensembles comprising PMC members
and friends.
Tickets at $30 and $150 for premium seats are available from PMC
at tel: 6584-0297 or pentecost@pmc.org.sg
Other projects include the sale of Thanksgiving Tiles at $500,
a funfair in 2006 and other community-bonding activities.
PMC's extension will offer much needed facilities in terms of
an enhanced sanctuary, chapel, multi-purpose hall, expanded office,
prayer rooms, a roof terrace and new classrooms for the kindergarten.
