Wycliffe Singapore celebrated its 35th anniversary on 2 November 2019 at Grace Baptist Church in Singapore in a unique way. Through a family day event for ages 7 to 100, nearly 100 people gathered to share this joyous day with Wycliffe Singapore, while discovering that missions and Bible translation can be for them too.
