It's Another Year Gone By

HEY THERE, YOU!!!!!

First of all, I'd like to say Happy New Year to you ...

It's one decade gone by in the 21st century and there are certainly GREATER THINGS in stall for us all.

I'm really keen on stepping into 2010, and I've got a list of resolutions set:

1. Praise and serve God always with a cheerful heart
2. Serve the prefect board of SMK Taman S.E.A. faithfully
3. Serve in CF and get to know the CFers better!!!
4. Get active in my House
5. Be a good First Aider
6. Perform better in violin and piano
7. Play the guitar BETTER
8. Take part in another tennis tournament
9. See Chow Sern improve in his speech, and let myself contribute to that
10. BLESS EVERYONE AROUND ME, regardless of gender, age, occupation, status,
attitude, behaviour, personality, and size.

Tonight is the night I have been waiting for. I'll be "stringing" the night away on my violin together with the musicians of Creative School of Ministry in Full Gospel Assembly, KL.

I hope you will have as much fun as I do, I myself will enjoy playing for God. :

:)

See you in the next decade, whoever you may be. :)

Youth RevAmp Conference

Hey you, how's the holiday going?

As for me, I've been having an awesome time at the FGA Revolution Amplified Youth Conference from 14-20 December 2009 and I'm going to tell you all about it.

By the way, if you wonder what Revolution Amplified is, it's my annual church conference theme. It's not just about IMPARTING God's love to the attendees, it's also about IMPACTING society by serving the community.

Each participant gets to choose a department to get involved in. There's The Environment, the Refugees, the Orphans, the Sick ... and one more ...

Well, I chose the Sick, and boy, was it mind-blowing!!!! The ironic thing was that our nametag had two blank green sections, one big, one small. The big one was obviously for the name, so I wrote:

LEE CHOW XIN

And the little one was supposingly for the department we had chosen, but I didn't write it, because if I did, this would be my name tag:

LEE CHOW XIN
THE SICK

You can stop laughing now.

We had IMPART sessions in the morning, which was meant to teach God's word to us, and IMPACT sessions in the afternoon, where we went out to do community work.
Then, at night, we had Night Sessions where a speaker would impart to us anyway ...

The Sick people (not in that way) were volunteers for MAKNA - Majlis Kanser National. We were assigned to do Home Visits to Cancer Patients. Since the person-in-charge, a friendly lady named Mamma Gie, had instructed us not to "menceritakan" our experience to friends who were not volunteers, I would just give you the outline of the story.

It was interesting, it was a new experience, and it opened my mind to how privileged we are when we have healthy bodies. I loved the IMPACT session.

The whole conference was a whole new experience for Full Gospel Assembly, I must say, because all these years, our camps have only involved people coming, people getting touched by God, and people going home. This year, we not only have people coming, we also have people going out into the community to do good deeds for the less fortunate, to TELL PEOPLE THAT WE CHRISTIANS WANNA SHOW LOVE TO THEM! Is that amazing or what?

Chruch friends are so amazing. I met two girls from Shelter Home named Cassandra and Joyce. They are both two years elder than I am, but they were my very best companions throughout the conference. They taught me so many thing I never knew, and I would never want to forget those things.

FOOD. Conference food was so good I began to get suspicious why they were feeding us so extravagantly when we could easily settle for something simpler ...

Well, enough already ... Here are my photos:



















I guess that's all for now. How about you?
