Ipoh Wesley Youth Meeting

We recently joined the Ipoh Wesley Youth for their meeting on the 2nd February 2008. It was part of this year 'expedition' plan to go to the majority of the youth meetings in Ipoh to see what the youths of the Ipoh churches are doing. (That and to give our youth advisors a break and just 'leeched' of the other churches.)

We had a wonderful time there, experiencing what Ipoh Wesleyian Youths do for their meeting. They started off with an icebreaker (this is an extra, I don't think they have an icebreaker for every youth meeting). In the ice breaker two girls are paired with a guy. The girls are given a banana and are told to measure all possible VISIBLE parts of the guys body. From the EY camp, we bravely volunteered our sisters, Shireen and Eliza and Mr. Kai was our lucky brother who got 'measured' by two sisters from Ipoh Wesley (guys, next time volunteer, I don't always pick you for the donkey jobs)



Shireen and Eliza 'measuring'. Wonder why Eliza is closing her mouth?




Mr. Kai getting 'measured' but wait, why are the girls measuring away from Mr. Kai?


After that icebreaker, we had a time of worship conducted by the Ipoh Wesley Youth. We had the full band. Our EY at the fore front during the worship. Great going guys and gals in participating in their worship.

After the worship time, we had the discussion on peer pressure. It was conducted in a forum style and we as usual volunteered our fellow brethren, Kar Wai and Steven for the guys, Carmen and Bernice for the gals. They fielded questions on various issues on peer pressure.


Our esteemed panel representatives (sometimes, I do volunteer you fellas for donkey work)

After the session, we were treated to some delicious light refreshments by the Ipoh Wesley and being good guests, we of course ate all the provided food. After the light refreshments, we then joined them to throw the frisbee around and as well as shoot some hoops with some of the Ipoh Wesley youths. All in all a great time with the Ipoh Wesley Youths (if any of the Ipoh Wesley people are reading this, THANK YOU and SORRY if we have in any way offended or been a trouble)
