PALM SUNDAY
Today, PALM SUNDAY (aka Passion Sunday) commemorates the
triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover.
It marks the beginning of Holy Week, when Jesus died and rose
again on Resurrection Sunday. As we draw close to the events of
His sacrifice for us, let us pause to reflect and reconsecrate
ourselves to Him.

COVID-19
                            *THE COURAGE FUND*
Dear AMC family,

"Individuals and families impacted by COVID-19 can now apply for *The Courage
Fund*.

Through the giving hearts of many Singaporeans and companies, the Fund has
raised over $5.9m to help those who succumb to the virus, as well as healthcare
and frontline workers, and community volunteers who contract it in the line of
duty.

It’ll also lend relief to lower-income families facing financial difficulties due to
members contracting the virus, under quarantine, on Stay-Home Notices or
mandatory Leave of Absence (LOA). Eligible families can apply at the nearest
Social Service Office (SSO) from *6 Apr 2020*

More details are on www.ncss.gov.sg/thecouragefund

In these difficult times, if you or if you know of others who need help for the
above, or in other areas of need, please contact Tat Chuen at
weetatchuen@gmail.com or anyone from the church office.

                     Synchronised Prayer to battle against COVID-19
Let us pray in UNITY with one another virtually wherever we may be, at a fixed time and see
how God intervenes and changes the situation.

Wherever we are, let us pause at 9pm from 05 April 2020 to pray in one accord and in
oneness of spirit for God to eradicate the COVID—19 virus.

2 Chronicles 7:13-15 New International Version (NIV)
“When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or
send a plague among my people, if my people, who are called by my name, will
humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will
hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now my eyes will be
open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.

Let us turn our fears and worries to intercession.
