Visitation to Lutheran Youth Group

Continuing on my 'catching up' of pictures to upload....the next in the series in also the continuation of last year's EY program of visiting other churches youth groups for exposure and building rapport with the respective youth groups...

On 9th May 2009, we joined the Lutheran Church Youth Fellowship. Our Uncle William shared during their meeting on Mother's day, so we took the oppurtunity to join him and the Lutheran Church's youth for their meeting.

It was a fun filled time and we enjoyed ourselves, well let's hope the Lutheran Church youths had fun too. Well, enough said onto the pictures and a surprise treat...

A view of the combined youth group

A brother Alan doing push ups...why? Well a single word...girls...well have to add two other word to be clear...'to impress' (actually getting punished during one of the games, or purposely getting himself punished in order to do push ups...you decide...)

Brother William sharing...

The special treat...a long time ago in EY, there was a group of youths led by Uncle Richard which had a nickname. They were known as the chicken group. Why? Well, this happen when I was overseas, so I know not how it began or why. I just know it was there. Time passes and the chicken grew...I thought the group had passed on until recently we saw a 'resurrection' of the said group.

Ladies and gents, allow me to present to you, our new upcoming...chicken group!!! (PS: Guys and gals, need to think of chicken names for the two members...suggestions?)

BBQ Farewell...

As promised, the first in the series of the things that the EY has 'done' this few weeks. First up, the farewell BBQ. Every year without fail, haiz..., to our loss and "someone's" gain, some of our youths will leave our EY family to further their studies. So this year, we bid farewell to quite a big number of them and we planned to sent them off with a full stomach. (Yeah, we had a makan time!!!)

Well, let the pictures tell the stories, I am too ... ... (emo...) to write....haiz....

BBQ always get a good crowd. Bible study...not soo much...:)

Some specializes in cooking, some...eating...

A bit different this time round. The youths did the cooking. Maybe they finally figured out, leave the EY advisors to cook, they will not get anything good to eat...


BBQ organised by yours truly...have all the essential stuff...meat, meat and meat.


Did I tell you we got meat?

While she is doing this, we ate her lamb chop...yum yum

Emo time, somebody started to get teary eye as we are begin to bid goodbye....wait...that's not right, she got teary eye because we ran out of lamb chops...

No reason. Tot they looked 'cute'

Its tat vege? In katan's house BBQ? See, I can live a healthy live. Its actually ingredients of the love cup that we made for the 'leavers'

We mixed it...rather crushed and blended it.

The 'outcome' of the love cup

Our 'leavers'...from left....Carmen, Eliza, Josephine, Glenn and Steven

All of them drank the love cup, some gave it right back....so polite...


No, he is not looking for a hiding place...guess what is he up to?

Anyway, as we bid them farewell and all the best, we know and believed that our Lord and God will always be there for you all. You all have been a tremendous blessing to our group. It is indeed a joy to see you all grow and mature in Him and we are indeed very much blessed to be able to join you in this part of your life. You were, are and will always be a blessing to EY. And as you have blessed us much, we believe that whichever fellowship that you will join in the future, they will be blessed by you too...Bye guys and gals....Its been fun!!!

Program Updates...

People, first things first, am sorry for not updating the blog. Have tons of pictures from the Extreme Prayer, the visit to the Lutheran Church Youth Group and the Caregroup BBQ. Will upload that as soon as possible, by this week...I'll try...I know, do or do not, there is no try. Before we can get to that post need to remind you all of the following

This Friday, we are suppose to have our Caregroup but Uncle Jimmy called for a helpers meeting for the Children's Holiday Club. For those of you all who have signed up as volunteers, you need to be in that meeting. For the rest, we will do 'something'.

So a show of hands or a shout out in the box for those who are free for this Friday meaning not going for the meeting (if you have signed up, you NEED to attend that meeting), do the shout out, and we will get in touch with you what that 'something' is. Well, I can let you know this much, it will be fun...

May 8, 2009 Update

Ok people, sorry for this long delayed info...The venue for tomorrow night's 'celebration' is at Wan Li's house at 7.00pm.

What will we have? Well, meat, meat and more meat. And yes, we will also have meat!!! (What did you expect when you get me to buy stuff? Not only do we get meat, but fat and oil intensive meat...)

What will we do? Well eat for one. Another will be to improve myself. Huh? Well, you see during the farewell for Andrew, somebody told me that we could have done better. So, acknowledging my weakness, I vowed to do better this time round. So we will have a 'short' "celebration" for our going to depart friends...
