Home - Shalom Church Singapore - Reformed Baptist
Description
“The Shalom Church was founded out of doctrinal necessity. It is the first Baptist church in Singapore and Malaysia with a distinct Reformed foundation. The 1689 Baptist Confession is upheld as a teaching basis. Thus the Shalom Church traces her roots back at least to the Puritan and Reformation eras. In an age of ecumenical apostasy, God is raising up churches which will stand firmly on the faith once delivered to the saints. There can be no compromises. There can be no looking back. Shalom Church is Protestant.”
So says Pastor David YAN [pastor of Emmanuel Church, Auckland], who together with a group of students returning from New Zealand, founded the Shalom Church on 5th August 1979.
In 1986, due to the pressing needs of Emmanuel Church, Pastor David YAN returned to Auckland. From 1986 – 1993, the work was carried on by the brothers of Shalom Church, notably Paul CHONG [now pastor of Shalom(Dover) RBC] and LAI Man On [a long-time elder]. It was a time where the loyalty and commitment of many to this work were tested. We are thankful to the Lord for keeping us.
