MCS leaders whip up dishes to raise funds for Pentecost MC extension
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, General Conference Women’s Society of Christian Service (WSCS) President and the WSCS President of Pentecost Methodist Church (PMC) are whipping up their favourite 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 $4 million for its church extension.
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.
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.
