"30Even youths grow tired and weary,

and young men stumble and fall;
31but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and now grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint."

19 July 2008, Sat: Celebrating Crystal's 13th Birthday


It was raining heavily in the afternoon and still drizzling in the evening. Amy, Sharon, Samuel, Wen Yi and I were in the worship team and man the practice was till about 7pm! Just when last sat's prac was so short. But well, this time's 'cause the songs are tougher and we had our own problems so it's alright. And so unfortunately we started YF late too. And after YF's worship, it was a time of sharing. Uncle Chin had Tanya and JeremyL out to the front to share to us what they know about their siblings in Singapore currently. Desiree wasn there so we dunno how Angelica's doin over there..thus, that's one of the reasons of the existence of this blog! haha..i only remembered to take a photo when it was Jeremy's turn so i didn't take Tanya's:
Tanya was very informative about Tammi's current situation but Jeremy..man..Justin, you have to stay in touch more with your bro man..but for now i noe cant la..since no internet access at where you are now till at the hostel and also Jeremy wif no handphone to sms with you, haha..
The updates are with Q&As too. And here's a clip of Jeremy..stopped halfway after my phone ran out of memory:











After the updates, Uncle Keat Heng (erm, dunno if i spelled wrong), who was also there, shared 2 events about how God has helped them in China. One was about how they managed to get a visa there in the last 3 days (if i din remember wrong) before they had to leave due to some problems they faced when they jz got there last year. Another one is about finding a good place to stay with incredibly cheap rental fee when their previous rental contract expired last month.

After that, Ivan and Wen Yi shared. Ivan's was about tryin to not fall back again repeatin the process of sin-repent-forgiven and said what Uncle Chin described as a very nice way to put it, "deep enough to learn somethin, and shallow enough to pull out of" somethin lik that..can't remember the actual quote. While Wen Yi's was about forgivin others since God has already forgiven us through Jesus. Sorry i just cant remember the verse right now..

AND, after that, we all went downstairs for the celebration of Crystal's birthday, which was an early celebration since it's actually today, 20th of july. And which i realised i've forgotten to wish her in church today..man..anywayz, Timothy help bought a cake from Southern to surprise her but it turned out Crystal bought a cake her mom made, so we ended having 2 cakes to eat! All chocolate-y ones lagi. So we sang the birthday song in the dark:











and gave a toast for her:












Then pictures that were taken that night:
the group pics were taken by Uncle Chin with ronan's phone so he went and blocked the people

"Everybody say 'Crystal'!", said AdrianL. I suppose my bad timing didn take pics of Crystal lookin at the camera..she's just all smiling

Well, i didn't go eavesdropping so i dunno what the guys were discussin about.
"Sharon!" and then *SNAP*
Distributing the cakes..thanks Vanessa!
And sorry Samuel..
hehe..


you too, Shelby.

That's all i've got.

Remember people, we GOTTA START YF ON TIME NEXT SAT!!
