Grandville Evangelism Committee would like to invite you to attend a timely speech with Rev. Ron VanOverloop speaking on "Teaching our Children and Grandchildren to Witness". The speech will take place, Lord willing, at Grandville PRC, Tuesday, August 4, at 7:00 PM.
This speech will be directed toward all ages. Bring the whole family. Nursery will be provided. Stay for refreshments and fellowship afterwards.
Rev.Andrew Lanning along with his wife Stephanie and children are currently on furlough in the U.S. from their life and work in Singapore. Rev.Lanning is the PRC minister-on-loan to our sister church, the Covenant Evangelical Reformed Church in Singapore, where he has been for just over two years now.
While visiting with parents and family and friends in the U.S., he will also be preaching in various PR churches (e.g., Faith PRC on July 13) and will give a special presentation on his work in the CERC on Sunday, July 20, in the Grandville (MI) HS Auditorium. All are welcome to attend and learn about this important work in SE Asia!
While they are here, Prof.R.Dykstra (PRC Seminary) is in Singapore for him, ministering the Word to the saints in the CERC. Rev.Nathan Decker (Trinity PRC) will also be there a Sunday while he and Prof.Dykstra make their trip to Australia for the EPC conference.
If you wish to follow the Lannings while they are on furlough, visit their blog, "Stories from Singapore".
May God give them a special season of refreshment and renewal while they are here.
Postscript: As of early Thursday morning, August 7, the Lannings have arrived back home safely in Singapore. For a few notes and pictures on the final days of their furlough and their trip home, visit this post on "Stories from Singapore." We rejoice in the time they could have here in the States, as well as the safe travels they had going home.
Rev. K.Koole (Grandville PRC) together with elder Dave Kregel (Grandville PRC) will be traveling to Singapore this coming Thursday, Feb. 20, on behalf of Grandville PRC as calling church (of the minister-on-loan) and for the Contact Committee for the annual visit to our sister church, Covenant Evangelical Reformed Church.
They plan to conduct church with the CERC Session (see picture taken in September of 2013 at the time of her 26th anniversary) and family visitation with the Lanings, as well as discuss with the CERC her calling of Rev. A.Lanning to be their minister later this year.
The delegates will be in Singapore the Sundays of Feb. 23 and March 2, returning home, D.V., Monday, March 3.
May God be pleased to grant them safe travels and profitable meetings with our sister church and our minister-on-loan and his family.
UPDATE: From Grandville PRC's March 2, 2014 bulletin:
"Rev Koole and Dave Kregel plan to return home from Singapore Monday evening, DV. They conducted family visitation with the Lannings and Church Visitation with the Session. Our unity in the reformed truth is very evident, and makes for sweet fellowship with the saints here. They are very thankful for the work of the PRC and the Lannings. The Lannings send their greetings and are thankful for the prayers of the congregation on their behalf."
