So, what is ABC all about?
ABC stands for Adopt a Block in the Community.
ABC is a long-term commitment to minister to the people living in Bukit Merah, and we are excited to have this opportunity to bring Christmas cheer to the Bukit Merah community this Christmas!
In collaboration with Lifehouse SG, Cathedral is organising two Community Outreach events to spread God’s love to the residents of Bukit Merah on 3 and 10 December 2022.

3rd December 2022
Registration is now closed
What will be happening on 3 December 2022?
We will be packing and distributing 720 Christmas packs across five residential blocks where many are low-income individuals, families and elderly.
What will be in the Christmas Packs?
Christmas goodies and items which the residents have given feedback that are meaningful to them. Each pack is estimated to cost $25.
How can I be involved?

FULL Muscle Crew
As part of the Muscle Crew, it is time to put those hours at the gym to good use. You will carry the Christmas packs from the Distribution Centre (SAC) to the Transport Team (vehicles) waiting at the pick-up point. At Bukit Merah, we also need another team of Muscle Crew to carry these Christmas packs from the vehicles at the Offloading Point to the Collection Point at the respective blocks.

FULL Delivery
As part of the Delivery Team, you will collect the Christmas packs from your respective Block ICs and deliver them door-to-door to the designated households in the block. This role requires a fair amount of walking. We will provide a guide that you may use when you meet the residents. As you interact with the residents, we seek your understanding to comply with the latest Do’s and Don’t’s which will be shared during the briefings.
