VISION
LIVING OUT OUR HOPE IN CHRIST

MISSION
WITH EVERY LIFE IN HIS S.T.O.R.Y.

Early in 1989, the vision of planting a church was conceived when a group of Wesleyans met regularly for bible study in Tampines. This vision resonated with the Trinity Annual Conference and in August 1989, the Tampines Outreach Project (TOP) was birthed.

In January 1991, the first Sunday service was conducted at St Georges’ Chapel. By November, TOP was approved as a local church and was named Tampines Methodist Church with 42 adult members.

In 2001, after seeking the Lord for direction, the leaders renamed the church Living Hope Methodist Church (LHMC). The Church was blessed with a piece of land at Tampines Street 33 and upon the completion of the church building, the members of LHMC finally found their permanent home in December 2004.

Today LHMC has a membership of over 350, with one English and one Mandarin cum Hokkien Worship Service running every Sunday.

The vision of LHMC is to be a people “Living Out Our Hope in Christ” , that is what we hope to be!

We desire to be a place where every disciple is living out the hope they have in Christ, shining like lights for Christ to draw the multitudes to Him-in our homes, our neighborhood, our places of vocation, our nation and our world!

Our mission, which is the way we seek to accomplish our goal, is through placing “Every Life in His S.T.O.R.Y.“.

Beginning with Creation, and culminating in Revelation, God has written the greatest Story, of which His Church is a part of. Yes, God has a plan and purpose for all our lives- when we find our place in the Story God is writing, we find meaning and the abundant life Jesus promised us in the Scriptures.

LHMC desires to be a growing Church. We believe a balanced disciple grows in the five values encapsulated in S.T.O.R.Y.

We seek to grow in these aspects:

Social– our relationships with those around us.

Transformation– our application of the Word of God in our daily lives.

Outreach– building bridges with others, that lead them to Christ.

Reverence– developing a lifestyle of worship and prayer.

Yielding– being responsible stewards of all the time, talent and treasure God has blessed us with.

Outreach is a big part of LHMC, we seek to serve our community through our outreach partners in St Luke’s Eldercare Changkat, serving those in Changi Prison, as well as through praying for the sick. We also partner the Methodist Missions Society, to bring Hope to Song Roi Phee Methodist Centre, an outreach work just outside Bangkok, Thailand.

Come visit us and discover the joy of not just going to church, but being the Church!

God bless!
