Beginnings:
It
began as the Queenstown Chinese Seventh-day Adventist company
in the 1960s. In 1963, the then pastor of the Thomson Chinese
Church (Lim Tian En) rented a two-storey shophouse in the name
of Seventh-Day Adventists charitable clinic located at 104 Stirling
Road.
Due to a shortage of pastors, the Queenstown company held its
services on Sabbath afternoons assisted by the pastor from the
Thomson Church. It had about 30 members attending at that time.
From April 1963, a female pastor, Ho Yuet Chang, from Malaysia
served as its pastor for six years until Pastor Mathew Yuen became
its pastor in 1996. During that time worship services were conducted
in both Chinese and English. The Chinese-speaking members met
in the afternoon and the English-speaking members in the morning.
After Pastor Lim had immigrated the rented shophouse was returned
and the members moved to the Thomson Church.
In 1986, it finally moved into the Jurong Church building at Jurong
East St 13 and assumed the name of Jurong East Seventh-day Adventist
Chinese Church.
