Sembawang Presbyterian Church

Turn into Jalan Jeruju from Sembawang Road and you will see this church, which stands out with its blue façade.

Founded in 1974 by the Presbyterian Christian community in Sembawang, this church was built on land donated by one of their church elders, Mr. Ang Oon Hue. Up to the 1980s, the church was still surrounded by old rubber trees as the site used to be a rubber plantation. The early worshippers were villagers from nearby kampungs, and the church served as a spiritual as well as social centre for them.

It was only in 1990 that the church was officially registered. In 2005, the church underwent re-development and the new building was completed in 2006. Today, its most outstanding feature is the bell tower. The bells were imported from France and are sounded at noon everyday to remind its worshippers to reflect on religious teachings.
