Church raises $19m in 24 hrs

NEW Creation Church raised a whopping $19 million for the construction of its new premises at Buona Vista - in less than 24 hours.

In a show of support, a record number of 22,000 people turned up for services at the Rock Auditorium at Suntec City Mall three weeks ago.


The donations were collected over four services on Feb 15.

In comparison, amonth-long charity drive by NTUC Income, Project Love, raised about $375,000.


Following the success of its fund-raiser, the New Creation Church announced the amount it raised to its members on Feb 22. However, when contacted, the church declined to comment.

New Creation Church-goer Angelique Lee, 26, a full-time student, said her donation was a form of thanksgiving and appreciation 'for all that God has blessed me with'.

'Attending church has helped to transform my life and make me a better person over time,' she explained.

Graduate student Huang Wei Hsuan, 26, who is not a member of the church, felt that part of the funds could be used to 'help those who are really in need, instead of being fully used to construct a new building'.

'Is it really a good idea to build a new building now? Should the church members be advised to keep more for rainy days?' he asked.

But many others who are not from the church were heartened by the congregation's generosity.

'I feel it's incredible that such kindness, empathy and generosity can be shown in such bad economic times,' said Mr Shawn Chin, 24, a civil servant. -- MYPAPER

because dead men speak no truth.

therefore, the institution is always just and the opponents will forever be perverse deviants of this society.

and the machine rages on.

I, for one, do not believe in anything that the media has said with regards to the NTU stabbing incident and neither should any of you take it at face value.
