BEC Monthly Reflection & Prayer Fellowship
The Covid19 pandemic forced us to resort to virtual meetings via Zoom in the last three years. BEC SS7 St Mark resumed the monthly BEC prayer fellowship physically on 15 February 2023 after a lapse of three years. Everyone participated keenly in the discussions. There was so much joy in everyone present!
The last physical meeting we had was on 20 February 2020. Photo below.
IN MEMORIAM
Our late brother Joshua Jeyaraj Erudayaraj (27 December 2022), late sisters Mary Elizabeth Prama Aloysius (31 December 2022), Agatha Phang (5 January 2023) and Paulinus Tan (20 January 2023).
Bless those who mourn, eternal God, with the comfort of your love that they may face each new day with hope and the certainty that nothing can destroy the good that has been given. May their memories become joyful, their days enriched with friendship, and their lives encircled by your love.
