Wow I haven't blogged for quite some time so here's an entry. National Day was 6 days ago, Happy 45th Birthday Singapore! (Yes I know its a bit lag) On a more recent note, yesterday was the opening ceremony of the 1st ever Youth Olympic Games! WOOH! I'm so proud of Singapore! 2 major events in then span of a week! NAISE! I heard the opening ceremony was very good but couldn't watch it cos I was having the first session of a newly formed small group at Hernshung's place. Wooh! THE NEW SMALL GROUP ROCKS MAN! HALLELUJAH!
Thank God for Hernshung too! He is really a great brother and friend to me. I met up with him on Friday for dinner at garden's market. I just shared with him the problems I was facing right now and he gave me some good advice. It was also a time to look back to reflect on how my walk with God was like and how I could improve my relationship with God. He gave me some good pointers to take back such as to start listening more instead of always asking and to maybe start journaling which I did yesterday with my first entry! :)
Today was first mission trip preparation session! WOOT! Today we basically had a small ice breaker in which we were to write what you liked about each person and what you look forward to in each person. I have yet to read mine so I'm gonna read it once I finish blogging! Haha! After that was a presentation from each group about the different areas that they had been assigned the previous week. Me, Audrey and Nicole had thought of a few post-mission trip activities on how we can encourage people to go on mission trips. Finally we set 3 objectives for the mission team. They are:
1) Bonding with and blessing each other
2) Spiritual - Hebrews 10:24-25
3) Physical - Bring a smile to the people's faces
