Safra Retreat '09 [19th-22 June]
I have been previlage to share with a few people's sentiments that the Annual church camp over at Malacca was just too short! Am Glad & thankful that people were blessed with the speaker Kent Smith's sharing & the fellowship moments over meals & walkabouts in the city(:
I thank God for the weekend I had at Changi. The commercial planes flying over the area, the sea breeze brings back memories of the BMT days on Pulau Tekong.
It's been a very long time since the 1st Safra Retreat get-together was initiated by my mum.
It warms my heart to watch cousins grow up together,
the funny moments when we play card games, to now mahjong, younger times we spend sleeping late,
trying to wake up early at the direction of older cousins who were Scouts that deemed waking up earlier masculine.
cramping up together on the mattresses in the living room instead of the comfort of rooms upstairs.Bowling, walking at the beach, swimming
Now we're a little older, more sensitive to lack of sleep.Personally I slept in at 3am after a friday & half saturday rehearsing for SAF day & NDP.Only got up at 11am, must get my 8 hours or else I know i'm gonna fall sick again.
The beauty is it takes everyone to put this retreat together, from my mum who coordinates everything, to ah ma who makes prawn rolls, to aunty who cooks laksa Uncle who buys extra sausages & another drinks.
Thank God for the weekend(:
School people are gearing back for school in the midst of the H1N1 influenza, people are going back to work, May we rely on God even more after recharge weeks at VBS ,church camp or chalet(:
Have a blessed week ahead!
