Tolumis Care Centre

Members from Canaanland Celebration (CC) who chose to visit Tolumis Care Centre (TCC) had to be in Kyrugma House (KH) by 9.45a.m.


This visit was organised by Jerry Ho and Kenny Lim who are in charge of Outreach/Events in CC.


Prior to today Jerry and Robin Lee who is in charge of Dorcas Team of our main church had visited the centre to understand their needs and how we can contribute.


The lady in charge of this centre is Madam Ching Mee and she requested donation of the following items.


- Clothing, shoes etc

- Groceries

- $

- Adult diaper “TENA” brand


CC’s members donated lots of clothes and other items.


I was put in charge of collecting the cash donation.


Though we are a small congregation, the members are truly generous in their giving. PTL for every contribution in cash and in kind.


Before we departed from KH to TCC, we met up for a short time of songs practice.


Jerry also gave a short briefing about TCC.



On the way and thank God for a sunny day


TCC is situated at one of the terrace houses at Taman Donggongon. Madam Ching Mee works fulltime and she has a maid along with her daughter to help look after the residents of TCC.


The residents consisted mainly of disabled people but Madam Ching Mee also adopted a baby boy.

After a short introduction by Jerry, his wife Doreen led the residents in a game of playing passing rubber bands using straw.


Then it was time for dancing session.

The residents enjoyed themselves and Mimi Quek joined in as well.


After the dancing session, Ivy Voon led in singing a few songs in English, Malay and Mandarin.

Kenny Lim led the final prayer in Malay.


Though there are so many residents living in this centre, the place has been kept very tidy and clean.


We left so that they could enjoy our donation of KFC for lunch.
