Personal Stories

Every time I visited Singapore before the pandemic, I would always make it a point to visit New Creation Church. I’m so thankful that I can now watch the services online every week.

Our 18-year-old daughter had been estranged from us for about 7 years. It was so painful, and at many times, it was hard to choose to keep going. We rested in the Lord’s promises of restoration we heard from listening to Pastor Prince’s messages for over 5 years.

I had to register for my Honors degree at the start of 2015. However, I was unable to as my dad could not afford the fees after paying for my three-year undergraduate course.

After my graduation in 2014, I was given an opportunity to work as a trainee in a logistics company. After a year, I was offered a permanent post.

I was working as an executive assistant to the general manager with a renowned semi-government company. Everything was working fine for me in the organization until I was pregnant with my second child.

I was baptized when I was thirteen years old but I did not attend a church until I got married. I was so happy to attend church every Sunday after I met my husband, but even though I did that and tithed regularly, there was an emptiness in my heart that I could not understand.

In my final year of high school, I was left to choose between two different courses offered by two different universities. It was a difficult decision, made worse by my relatively young age and inexperience.

I was born into a Christian family but had no interest or love for the Lord. At the age of ten, while studying overseas with my sister, I developed a passion for football. I wanted to pursue it as a profession and was determined to fulfill my dream as a football player.

I would like to share two testimonies regarding my two daughters. The first is in relation to my twenty-year-old daughter, Genesis. After a year of seeking our Father’s will with regard to what she should do after graduating from high school, we all had peace with her entering the Air Force.

Just over two years ago, I became unemployed and left with no place to stay. I was also rejected by my family because all the money and luxuries I had were gone. My son and I ended up living in a village with a family in which only one person was employed as a domestic worker in a nearby town. This person made only $70 a month to feed seven people. Our living conditions were a far cry from what we were used to.

When I joined the real estate industry, I had a tough time trying to close deals. After 4 months, I still had zero revenue. Weekly sales meetings were tremendously stressful for me and I constantly felt hopeless and desperate.

My husband had a sales job for 10 years that required him to travel a lot. We didn’t see each other for weeks, sometimes months, at a time. Two years ago, his company went through some changes that ultimately resulted in us not having enough funds for food or lodging.
