The leadership team consisting of 7 members plus the Minister of the Chinese Congregation, his wife and a part time Chinese minister, which oversees the day to day running of the church, organization of activities, as well as drawing up long-term objectives for the development of the Chinese section of the church. Members of the Leadership Team are elected during an annual meeting whenever  vacancies occur. The leadership team meets about once a month. Individual leaders also sit in various committees of Epsom Methodist Church as representatives of the Chinese Congregation. The Leadership Team consists of members of the young and older age group reflecting the age composition of the congregation. Annual meeting of the whole congregation is held twice a year during which the Leadership Team gives a report about the church (Chinese section) to members and the congregation. The latter can raise questions, make comments and suggestions on any matter concerning the Congregation. This will be acted upon by the Leadership Team so that improvements may be made.

Rev. David Winwood Superintendent of Sutton Circuit churches, including Epsom Methodist Church		When the current building development is completed we hope to arrange a small Garden of Remembrance in the corner, left of the Dovecote bookshop, but our first task will be to create a new focal point for worship in the redesigned church.  We are planning to have a large communion area surrounded by a communion rail and a step on all four sides, so that we can kneel all round to receive bread and wine in response to Christ’s invitation to, ‘Do this in remembrance of me’.  (2007)
Rev. Kwok Kong Yap Chinese Congregation		May the spirit give us the strength to build our love for one another so that we can work together to serve the Lord and others with one mind and in unity. Work together to spread the gospel so that the Church of our Lord continue to expand. Teach, develop and train Chinese Christians to hold fast to the truth, raise up the next generation to serve God and continue to expand the gospel and His work to every corner of the earth, Amen
Rev. Hazel Yu English & Chinese Congregations		My vision of a leader for the Chinese congregation is to assist Rev K K Yap to fulfil the potential in reaching out to the Chinese Community and bringing many to Christ.   I am learning Mandarin so that I can communicate with some Chinese who only speak Mandarin.  The 'Faith & Worship' course will equip me to practice and to share the work of ministry.  I am keenly interested and participate in pastoral care.

　

Josephine Yap Caring (overall)

I am pleased to proclaim the miraculous signs and wonders which God on the highest has done in my life。 His Kingdom lasts forever! His authority endures through all generations!! (Daniel 4:2-3) It is a blessing and grace to be able to proclaim His miraculous deeds! Living in a fast and ever changing age we must be happy and willing to fulfil the evangelical mission, grasping firmly the glorious hope of resurrection in God’s eternal kingdom.

Whether or not church ministries prosper or not depends on co-workers' acceptance of one another and their service to God in unity. They also need to support and intercede for one another. I pray that our Lord of grace would give us strength to accomplish our mission so that it might glorify God and profit people.
