Easter Service 2017
Not only is God bringing His blessings to Ying Wa, but He is also doing great things for mankind. On 6 April, students took part in the traditional Famine Lunch programme at school to raise funds for the needy and share the experience of facing hunger and starvation. On 7 April, both junior and senior form students gathered at School Hall to attend the Easter Service in two different sessions (morning and afternoon). Reverend Kan Kei-piu Paul was invited to share on the theme of "Renewal and Transformation". Jesus overcame great suffering and death for our salvation, and this offers us the opportunity to transform our lives by following Him and bringing the glory of the resurrection into everyday life.
