More than 150 Guest Workers Signed Up for Inaugural Weekly...


On 19 March 2023, the Alliance of Guest Workers Outreach (AGWO) and Rotary Club of Singapore (RCS) has jointly launched the Guest Workers Cricket Training Programme at Tuas South Recreation Centre. With 100,000 migrant workers living in Tuas, a remote industrial area that is isolated with no avenues for recreation, the launch of this cricket programme ensures that these migrant workers have the opportunity to participate in enjoyable sport activities.
Since February 2023, more than 150 guest workers have signed up for this structured six-month training programme. This programme enhances the emotional & physical wellbeing of guest workers through cricket, a widely played sport in South Asia.
Migrant workers who signed up for the programme received cricket equipment, jerseys and shoes, provided by the RCS. They were also coached by professional cricket coaches in this structured cricket training programme.
We thank the RCS for their unwavering support and look forward to our continued effort to provide holistic care for our migrant workers.

200 Years of Shining God’s Light on Singapore and Beyond


“For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”—2 Corinthians 4:6 

2023 marks an important milestone for the Bible Society as we celebrate our 200th anniversary of the Bible Mission in Singapore, having started in 1823 with the distribution of 1,000 Chinese New Testament Bibles. For the past 200 years, our Society has worked with our sister Bible Societies and evangelical communities regionally in pioneering the Bible Mission and advancing the Bible cause. Singapore has been the regional hub for Bible translation and printing projects since the 19th century.

Streams of Life (SOL) is a Regional Christian Media Agency that aims to inform, inspire and impact the wider Christian community in Singapore and beyond. SOL Media is a one-stop hub that provides holistic content, regional news, and media services on various digital platforms to its regional partners, such as churches, charities, and other like-minded organisations.

“In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
—Acts 20:35
“我凡事给你们作榜样,叫你们知道应当这样劳苦,扶助软弱的人,又当记念主耶稣的话,说:‘施比受更为有福。’”——使徒行传20:35

Cambodia:
56-year-old Hoeun Thuch whose home was destroyed by a Cambodian flood shared: “This aid package gives me some temporary food. We are so grateful that you helped us and other families during this time of need and difficulties.”

Ukraine:
“This project helped us to bless the churches and ministries who were trying to help the victims but also had their own practical needs. We were using our vehicles to deliver humanitarian aid and food, along with Scriptures. When the situation in Northern Ukraine improved, we travelled to the frontlines of Eastern Ukraine to deliver Bibles and aid to the military and civilians there. Huge thanks to everyone who helped to preserve the Bible work in Ukraine amidst the war!”
— Ukrainian Bible Society

Sri Lanka:
“The economic situation is not the same as earlier. And I would like to thank the Ceylon Bible Society and The Bible Society of Singapore for this great help and especially, would like to thank God for fulfilling our needs.”
— a three-wheeler driver in Sri Lanka

Your contributions to the Bible Mission have made a huge impact on the lives of so many. As the Bible Society commemorates the bicentennial of the Bible Mission in Singapore this year, this inspires us to persist in serving and reaching out to those in need of help.

To honour this momentous celebration, the Bible Society has set up a Bicentennial Bible Mission Fund, which will be channelled towards Bible translation, distribution, engagement and advocacy, and holistic ministries that involve humanitarian and charity causes to support our various future missions for the helpless and hopeless, especially the vulnerable, marginalised and poor communities locally and in the countries we support—Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, India, Myanmar, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Ukraine, Turkey, Syria, and more.

Transforming the lives of many wouldn't have been possible without your fervent prayers, generous donation, participation, and volunteerism. However, the work is far from over as the needs are ongoing and there is still much work to do. On behalf of our beneficiaries, we urge you to channel your blessings through the Bicentennial Bible Mission Fund, so that many more can be reached with our humanitarian initiatives. Let us be motivated by a shared mission to bring grace and truth to more distressed countries and make a difference in more lives. To God be the glory!

ADEO uplifts the lives of over 5,000 MDWs to spread...


As part of Hope Initiative Alliance (HIA)’s International Migrants Month programme, Alliance of Domestic Employees Outreach (ADEO)—a movement of HIA—has been organising a sponsored tour to Flower Dome by Gardens by the Bay for 1,500 MDWs from 20 November to 25 December 2022. As we seek to continuously improve their lives and bring integration between them and the community, such an initiative has helped to make them feel appreciated and bring them joy as many may not get the opportunity to visit such tourist attractions in Singapore.

Launched in December 2021, ADEO has reached out to over 5,000 MDWs from different ethnic or nationality groups; has more than 100 partners including government agencies, embassies, NGOs, employment agencies, religious organisations, and many more. Together with the partners, more than 20 events were organised, with around 200 MDWs pledging their membership with ADEO. In addition, over 20 volunteers from various occupations such as students, accountants, managers, and the MDWs themselves, have graciously taken their time and efforts to serve the MDWs. All of them expressed their positive experience with ADEO, sharing that the events were enjoyable not only for the MDWs, but also for them as they extended help for the activities. They were also looking forward to being involved in the subsequent events.

In celebration of ADEO’s anniversary, a Feast of Appreciation, supported by MOM and other ADEO partners, will be held on Sunday, 11 December 2022, bringing around 300 MDWs to gather in the city, graced by the Minister of State for Education and Manpower, Ms Gan Siow Huang. Fun activities such as carnival games, flea market, cake cutting, lucky draws and free meals will be provided at the event.

In conjunction with International Migrants Day on 18 December 2022, this event aims to show appreciation to our MDWs for their effort and sacrifices in taking care of the families here in Singapore. The President of HIA, Rev Ezekiel Tan, shared his sentiment about this event, “During this International Migrant Month, while in the past, attention was mostly given to the migrant brothers in the dormitories, ADEO hopes to bring the awareness of holistic care to the migrant domestic sisters, making them feel at home in Singapore, and even see Singapore as their second home, with the bigger society as their families away from home.”

ADEO is proud to see the MDWs have benefitted from ADEO programmes, including free tours to iconic places of interest in Singapore, monthly gathering in the city and skill-based training. The greatest accomplishment is to see the ADEO community growing, with MDWs being more confident and appreciated, and in turn, they lead other MDWs to learn to appreciate what the community is doing and care for one another. They also go out of their way to encourage their friends to take part in the activities offered by ADEO. One of the domestic helpers who attended ADEO event for the first time, and is also new to her job in Singapore, shared, “I truly felt the care and respect, I would like to register and be part of ADEO”.

We hope that through this celebration, we can continue to empower, equip and uplift the lives of the MDWs in our midst as we reach out to more of them in 2023 and work together in improving lives!
