Blessed New Year! Here are the New Year greetings from our three Annual Conference Presidents: https://www.methodist.org.sg/methodist-message/presidents-greetings-2026/

As we step into a new year, many of us make resolutions and pursue fresh goals. However, Bishop Philip Lim reminds us of Romans 12:2 (NIV): “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” He urges us to let this new year be a year not merely of resolutions, but of revelation, as God’s renewing power works within us to mould our thoughts. https://www.methodist.org.sg/methodist-message/when-true-change-begins-with-a-renewed-mind/

In 1 Thessalonians 5:12–13, we are called to respect those who labour among us, to hold them in love because of their work, and to live in peace with one another. As the year draws to a close, Edward Hew from Holy Covenant Methodist Church reflects on this call, encouraging us to care for our pastors and leaders and to love one another well.

"When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh." - Matthew 2:10-11 The wise men did not come merely to give gifts. They came to receive the greatest gift God had given to the world: Jesus Christ. Their response was joy, worship, and wholehearted surrender. Christmas is the fulfilment of God’s salvation plan, and its central message is this: God gave His Son for us. May we, like the wise men, open our hearts to receive Him. The Methodist Church in Singapore wishes everyone a blessed Christmas!

It’s Christmas eve today! Bishop Philip Lim reminds us that Christmas is not just about feasting and partying, but it is about Jesus who became man and dwelt in our midst. Christmas is the fulfilment of God's salvation plan for us. As we celebrate, let's remember to make room for Jesus Christ this Christmas!

Christmas is only two days away! TRAC President Rev Reuben Ng encourages everyone to be a gift to others, just as Jesus has been a gift to us. Let’s share His love through our words, actions, and service this season.

As we joyfully count down to Christmas, ETAC President Reverend Saravana Kumar shares the good news from Luke 2:10—the beautiful message of the season: Jesus came into the world for all mankind.

We are 4 days away from Christmas. During this season, CAC President, Reverend Lek Yong Teck reminds us of 1 Corinthians 13:13, to love God, love one another and consider one another. He calls us to love others, to speak into each other's lives and to disciple each other.

"So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom." — Psalm 90:12 (ESV) After retiring early, Susan Mao chose to make every day count. She stepped into a new season of serving God, leading the Paya Lebar Methodist Church's Ukulele Ministry to bring His love to others through music. Susan's testimony is a reminder for us to live intentionally and trust God’s timing in every season of our life. Read Susan's story here: https://www.instagram.com/p/DSUpQsFDoar/

As the year comes to an end and we wrap up our Methodist Monday series, we’re reminded of these words from John Wesley. As we step into a new year, are we willing to wholeheartedly devote ourselves to God and set up the kingdom of Heaven upon Earth? #MethodistMonday
