Many first time visitors and friends from overseas came to visit. New friends from Myanmar and Indonesia continue to worship with us. The church was vibrant with life!! The church doors are always wide open to those who wish to worship humbly before God. And we believe in spreading spiritual holiness in transforming the nation. (gmcmiri@tm.net.my)

And there are so many blessings one can receive as part of this warm and friendly GMC family.

Hi Wenn
Thanks for dropping by ...
You have a good few days left of 2009!!
Enjoy!
Looks like everyone had a great time.
Is the church very big?
Hi Ann
The church can seat easily 400 people. Normal congregation is 200-300. When the sunday school kids are with us it is then 80 more..Christmas is usually the largest event we have. But I am glad we are reaching out to Myanmar Christians who are working here. There is a large Methodist chinese church in Lutong. The biggest Methodist Chinese church in Miri is able to accomodate 1000 and it is in Krokop.
Yeah...church is usually happy and bright on Christmas day.
Looks like your church is warm and having very close relationship.
Greetings....and May God bless you all.....
Justin.
Hi Justin
Yes the church is a small but growing church and almost every one feels at home. Very brotherly and sisterly.
You must come and visit one day.
