Prepare the Way of the Lord” Choir
Welcome Pr Richard Seow
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were
made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life,
and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness has not overcome it.
2 The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in
the land of deep darkness a light has dawned. ( John 1:1-5; Isaiah 9:2)
