Cornerstone Community Services (CCS) turns 30 this year, and as we look back upon what He has done through the last three decades, we celebrate God’s faithfulness and give thanks! It first began with a simple act of obedience to God’s Word in Isaiah 61:1: “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, because the Lord has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to th

Justin Ong tells us how his team experienced God’s grace at work while on a mission trip to Mae Sot, Thailand. Life-changing – this is how I would describe my team’s mission trip to Mae Sot, Thailand. I believe it was not only impactful for me but also for the rest – all 17 of us, including three-year-old Ephraim. It was a huge blessing and privilege to have a few father-child duos on this trip. I believe the presence of the fathers made such a difference to the way we minist

Rachel Tan testifies of God’s goodness on the mission field in Marikina, Philippines. Throughout our trip from 17-22 June 2026, we served at the Home for the Aged, visited families in their homes, spent time with rescued families in Kamada, ministered at a Girls’ Home, joined the outreach in Antipolo, and worshipped together during the Sunday services. At each location, we ministered with worship, testimonies, performances, prayer, and fellowship. While these programmes were

Adina Coroian, a graduate of the Bible College of the Wales from Romania, shares how God opened doors for her. I attended The Bible College of Wales (The BCW), School of Ministry, in the spring of 2021 and was part of Batch 11. This was during the time of the global COVID-19 pandemic when the world was abruptly shut down but God can never be shut out. I took the step of faith to enrol for The BCW-SOM and it was a life-changing season for me as God opened my eyes, and mind, an

Our Cornerstone Global Network (CGN) Summit 2026 welcomed 110 pastors and leaders representing 23 nations, including Singapore, for the four-day summit. Our pastors looked forward to hearing from our Senior Pastors, Pastor Yang and Pastor Daphne, share the direction and vision for the CGN, as well as the rich fellowship with one another. It was most encouraging to hear of God’s goodness and faithfulness in the lives and ministries of our CGN pastors and leaders. Each testimon

WOW! Conference Bali, Indonesia, was convened in May 2026 and hosted by Pastor Alexandra Ivanova of Cornerstone Apostolic Community Church. The central theme of the conference was “The Healing Covenant: From Silence to Symphony”, bringing together more than 200 women gathered from 13 cities. Pastor Nova carries a deep burden to see women across Bali encounter God’s healing presence and discover a place of refuge in Him. Her desire is for women to bring their hurts, disappoint

In the spirit of celebrating our Cell communities, Cell month kicked off with a dress-up photo contest – a challenge to Cells to come for service together on 11-12 July weekend dressed in a common theme of their choice! The contest categories included: Best Dressed Cell, Funniest Cell and “This is So Us” Cell. It was a fun and fascinating parade of sorts, seeing the most sporting Cells decked up as hippies of the Jesus Movement, fruits, animals, baristas, and enthusiastic tou

Our Annual Leaders’ Summit opened with a warm welcome from our Deputy Senior Pastor, Pastor Daphne Yang, as she welcomed over 400 leaders from across the seven congregations, marking the start of the Summit. In giving thanks for what the Lord has been doing in Cornerstone, she communicated to all on the progressive journey of Cornerstone, on the set milestones we have passed and the many testimonies across the different congregations, as well as the work of our Cornerstone Gl

There are seasons when God gathers His people to remind them of who He is – and who they are because of Him. This year’s Family Camp, themed “Enduring Witness: Praise that Outlives a Generation,” was one of those seasons. Over four days, the Lord drew us back to one quiet, unshakable truth: His goodness does not run out, His sovereignty does not waver, and He is inviting us to testify to that – and to make sure the testimony outlives us. A Witness Worth Watching Reverend Bonn

This year’s Easter Production, The Courtroom, pointed us to Jesus, our Advocate and Defender, and how our past can be exchanged at the Cross for a new life! The play’s director and scriptwriter, Jeremy Joseph shares his testimony. What was the inspiration behind the Courtroom? The inspiration to write the script came from a dream I had during last year’s church camp – it was my first church camp since I joined the staff, and there were many thoughts of inadequacy going throug

Danielle Ban shares her testimony of God’s work in her life on a year-long missions stint. “Will you go for Me?” These five words solidified my decision to go to Miri for a year. Many thoughts flooded my mind as I considered the missions stint. “Did I hear Him wrongly? What will my parents feel about me leaving my opportunities here in Singapore to go?” More importantly, “God, what is on Your mind?” It was a confusing season with many opinions and voices coming at me, but I k

Kristine Tan shares how she encountered God’s healing as she lifted Him a song during a time of sickness. I remember driving to work on 28 August 2024 when I felt an abnormal sensation in my right arm. It felt like an itch, but I couldn’t pinpoint exactly where it was located. When I reached my workplace, I continued with my daily tasks without thinking too much about it. However, as the day went by, I sensed something was wrong when I realised that I could no longer walk str

By Pastor Daphne Yang The call to rebuild, restore, and re-establish foundations is powerfully captured in Isaiah 58:12: “Those from among you shall build the old waste places; You shall raise up the foundations of many generations; And you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, The Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.” This passage speaks of the restoration of God’s people and the rebuilding of what has been broken down, not merely for the present, but for the generations t

The Bible College of Wales Alumni Gathering was a wonderful reunion of the past School of Ministry students (since 2015 when the college reopened). As our graduates gathered from different churches and nations, there was such synergy and a joining of hearts. Held in Singapore this year, we also had the wonderful privilege of hearing from Pastor Peter Williams, the visiting speaker and one of our beloved lecturers at the School of Ministry! As he preached, full of the Holy Spi

The Bible College of Wales receives many guests from the nations on a regular basis beyond the twice annual running of The School of Ministry programme. Some come for personal retreats to seek the Lord, to pray. Others arrive in groups from different ministries and church groups for their leaders formation training or annual planning and prayer, and we also have groups visiting revival sites in Wales. Here are some of the encouraging testimonies of their encounters with the L

By Dr. Brian J. Bailey Now since we are to be like our Master in all aspects of His glorious character, the attribute of goodness must be highly developed in our lives. Goodness is essentially the performing of good works with kindness and a generous, willing spirit, out of a heart of love. The New Testament saints were continually exhorted to good works. It was these works that exemplified their faith in action. As the Apostle James said, “For as the body without the spirit

By Pastor Yang Tuck Yoong The theme for this issue of the Herald is Restoration, drawn from: Isaiah 58:12, "Those from among you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, the Restorer of Streets to Dwell In." One of the most important periods in Israel’s history is the Restoration period. A cursory glance at the Bible reveals that the God we serve is a God of restoration. And H
