MCS shares DISCIPLE

material with

Presbyterian Church

THE METHODIST CHURCH IN SINGAPORE (MCS) and The Presbyterian Church in Singapore (PCS) signed a Memorandum of Understanding on Oct 25, 2011 to allow the PCS to translate and use the DISCIPLE Bible Study material distributed by the DISCIPLE Agency of the MCS.

Bishop Dr Robert Solomon represented the MCS, and the PCS was represented by the Right Rev Dr Steven Gan Giap Soon, Synod Moderator. The brief ceremony consisted of both church leaders signing and exchanging the agreement documents in front of witnesses from their respective church denominations, following which the Right Rev Dr Gan gave a short speech of appreciation.

He said that he had found the DISCIPLE programme to be the “most comprehensive and detailed material covering Genesis to Revelation”. He added that the material has had “great impact on the growth of my church”, referring to the running of the DISCIPLE programme in his own congregation. Later, he shared that the signing of the new agreement would enable his congregation to translate and use the material in the Myanmar language.

Bishop Dr Solomon closed the ceremony with a prayer of thanksgiving.
