The Danish Seamen’s Church in SingaporeThe Danish Seamen’s Church in Singapore (DSCS) was founded in 1984, as a branch of the Danish Seamen’s Church in Foreign Ports and as part of the Danish Evangelical Lutheran National Church. Jauary 2004 it became a new organisation DSUK, Danish Seamens Church Abroad DSCS is a non-profit organization that relies mainly on voluntary contributions from private sources in Denmark and Singapore. Additional income is created through bazaars, lotteries and other fund raising activities. The objective of DSCS is “to provide church services, ministrations and spiritual and practical assistance to residents in and seafarers and other visitors to Singapore, all of whom shall be of Danish nationality”. In other words, the Port Chaplain and his assistants will provide church services, visit ships, and try to create a “home away from home” for all Danes in Singapore, including a library with Danish Newspapers and magazines, coffee mornings, parties, provision of Danish sweets and delicatessen, and support in any way. There is a Danish school class and a Danish playgroup meeting weekly. The Daily running of DSCS is the responsibility of the resident Port Chaplain. He takes instructions from and reports to the Danish Seaman’s Church in Foreign Ports, DK, and he is counseled by the Church Committee. The Church Committee consists of 12 members who are elected annually among Danish residents in Singapore. The Management of DSCS is vested in a general meeting held annually.
Opening HoursThe church is open daily between 1 PM and 6 PM. Closed on Friday.

So, God asked him, "What's wrong with you?" Adam said he didn't have anyone to talk to. God said that He was going to make Adam a companion and that it would be a woman. He
said, "This pretty lady will gather food for you, she "She will NEVER have a headache and will freely give you love and passion whenever you need it." Adam
asked God, "What will a woman like this cost?"
