Our History

EL Assembly was started by Rev John Lee on 9th July 1967 as an Assemblies of God church. The church began in a rented private apartment in Bo Bo Tan Gardens in Tiong Bahru estate. Through the years, the church grew and held her services in many places, including YWCA, former Apollo Hotel, Foochow Association, former PUB auditorium, etc. In 1992, Rev John Lee resigned as senior pastor to concentrate on foreign missions. Rev Robert Lum (Bob), a home-grown minister, became her 2nd senior pastor. In November 2000, the church moved to the present premises at Bukit Timah Shopping Centre. The former cinema is now known as Bukit Timah Conference Centre.

In 2004, the church adopted the Spirit-Filled, Purpose-Driven church model. She believes in the powerful work of God’s Spirit and the 5-fold focus of every believer: Evangelism-Fellowship-Discipleship-Ministry-Worship. EL Assembly currently has 4 separate congregations – English, Mandarin/Hokkien, Cantonese and Filipino – with their language services, life group ministries, prayer meetings and Bible studies. There are also Children, Youth and Senior ministries catering to different seasons of life. The church possesses a strong sense of foreign missions and has established partnerships around the region.

In addition, EL Assembly has registered a separate social ministry known as “Potter’s Place Community Services Society”. Through this social arm, the church reaches out to the community through legal counselling, personal counselling, financial assistance, talks and other workshops. It is the church’s vision that she becomes a positive influence in our world through the power of God’s love.

OUR BELIEF

As part of the Assemblies of God denomination, we believe the following:

STATEMENT OF FAITH

  • WE BELIEVE…The Scriptures are Inspired by God and declare His design and plan for mankind.
  • WE BELIEVE…There is only One True God–revealed in three persons…Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (commonly known as the Trinity).
  • WE BELIEVE…In the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God’s son Jesus was both human and divine.
  • WE BELIEVE…though originally good, Man Willingly Fell to Sin–ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.
  • WE BELIEVE…Every Person Can Have Restored Fellowship with God Through ‘Salvation’ (trusting Christ, through faith and repentance, to be our personal Saviour). [1 of 4 cardinal doctrines of the AG
  • WE BELIEVE…and practise two ordinances—(1) Water Baptism by Immersion after repenting of  one’s sins and receiving Christ’s gift of salvation, and (2) Holy Communion (the Lord’s Supper)  as a symbolic remembrance of Christ’s suffering and death for our salvation.
  • WE BELIEVE…the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a Special Experience Following Salvation that empowers believers for witnessing and effective service, just as it did in New Testament times.
    [1 of 4 cardinal doctrines of the AG]
  • WE BELIEVE… The Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is ‘Speaking in  Tongues,’ as experienced on the Day of Pentecost and referenced throughout Acts and the Epistles.
  • WE BELIEVE…Sanctification Initially Occurs at Salvation and is not only a declaration that a believer is holy, but also a progressive lifelong process of separating from evil as believers continually draw closer to God and become more Christlike.
  • WE BELIEVE…The Church has a Mission to seek and save all who are lost in sin. We believe ‘the Church’ is the 
  • Body of Christ and consists of the people who, throughout time, have accepted God’s offer of redemption (regardless of religious denomination) through the sacrificial death of His son Jesus Christ.
  • WE BELIEVE…A Divinely Called and Scripturally Ordained Leadership Ministry Serves the Church. The Bible teaches that each of us under leadership must commit ourselves to reach  others for Christ, to worship Him with other believers, to build up or edify the body of believers–the Church and to Meet human need with ministries of love and compassion.
  • WE BELIEVE…Divine Healing of the Sick is a Privilege for Christians Today and is provided for in Christ’s atonement (His sacrificial death on the cross for our sins). [1 of 4 cardinal doctrines of the AG]
  • WE BELIEVE…in The Blessed Hope—When Jesus Raptures His Church Prior to His Return to  Earth (the second coming). At this future moment in time all believers who have died will rise  from their graves and will meet the Lord in the air, and Christians who are alive will be caught up with them, to be with the Lord forever. [1 of 4 cardinal doctrines of the AG]
  • WE BELIEVE…in The Millennial Reign of Christ when Jesus returns with His saints at His  second coming and begins His benevolent rule over earth for 1,000 years. This millennial  reign will bring the salvation of national Israel and the establishment of universal peace.
  • WE BELIEVE…A Final Judgement Will Take Place for those who have rejected Christ. They will  be judged for their sin and consigned to eternal punishment in a punishing lake of fire.
  • WE BELIEVE…and look forward to the perfect New Heavens and a New Earth that Christ is  preparing for all people, of all time, who have accepted Him. We will live and dwell with Him there forever following His millennial reign on Earth. ‘And so shall we forever be with the  Lord!’
