Gosh, It has been 1.5 years since I last pen down my thoughts here!!! Emm... Today, i thought I needed to do so - don't know why???

This year, Christmas 2007 in FCC was one of the day I cherished the most- my eldest daughter has grown up and I see God's hands & works in her life. She is beginning to show God's given talents & gifts and use these for God's glory.

I think she did a pretty good job in co-organising the children games activities with Daniel S. during our Children Christmas on 15 Dec 07. She has put in efforts to search for games, getting ideas from us & preparing the props. Well, at least this year she is enjoying her Children Christmas with the real meaning - yes, giving (as she has put it).

Next was the Youth Christmas on 22 Dec 07. She had excitedly invited many of her school friends to join her. But since Saturday was Chinese "Tong-Yuen" Festival ( i prefer to call it the "Chinese Christmas")~ a day celebrated with the eating of Tong Yuin (Glutinous rice ball served with syrup water), most of her friends had turned her down at the very last minute - except for a friend staying near our home, "Money" (her nickname given by my daughter). It was really God's hands at work and in the life of "Money" - she received the best gift of all - JESUS. YES! She accepted the Lord during the altar call. Praise God! We must remember to pray for our invited guests for them to be bold to take the step to receive SALVATION. We are planning for creative follow-ups to welcome her to God's family as her parents has yet to know about her "new life".

Ah now..... something new which I have not seen in my daughter, her acting skill. They did not want to tell me anything about the skit but I somehow came to know about the initial portion of the script (she accidently left it on our working desk). Emmm.....as I was reading the script, I was wondering how she would act like a "Dumb Dumb Girl". The day came when I first saw the skit - new born talents were found and I must admit that they are good. Our Youth is so creative in making the skit non-stereo type by adding on the dance item & the pre-video clips - GOOD JOB! Guys & Gals. They had simply managed to bring across the message about putting JESUS back to our Christmas celebration & our daily life.

I look forward to more exciting Church programmes/activities that will bring back life and more souls to God's Kingdom!
