Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-S730...

...isn't too bad a digital camera. Not at all. Eh quite nice k.. Takes decent photos.

7.2MP entry-level digicam with 3x optical zoom and 2.4" LCD with wide viewing angle.

It's not irrelevant!

The photos just take sooooo long to upload it's like.. either the Internet's on a new low OR the resolution of the photos are like.. big.

I'd go for the second option.

Okay my logic may be flawed and all but...

Look I'm just trying to compliment the cameraman on his camera and photos k.

Photography: Pastor Victor Lim :)

Yes, where were we going with this post?


POWER WEEKEND
(that should get us going on the right track!)

1. Combined Cell at Tania's house on Friday night.

Her house was packed!

It's like a sudden huge influx of people!

Oh and guess who came the earliest?

Tricia and Wei-Lynn.

And guess who came after them?

Pastor Andy Yeoh, Jay Loh and Pastor Victor.

So early they came! <-- gaya bahasa inversi hahah

Like. Whoa. Haha.

Kicked off with praise and worship led by Joyce, with Sharon's help.

Then, without further ado, Pastor Andy! =D


Darn he's GOOD. I mean it's not only the jokes and all, but the meaning. He talked on how ONE PERSON can make a HUGE DIFFERENCE in the world, using The Boy in the passage of Jesus Feeding the 5,000 as an example.

It was so good, you just HAD to take notes!
1. There was a boy and there was the crowd. (STAND UP)
2. The boy was nameless. (ANYBODY)
3. He was 'just' a boy. (AVAILABLE)
4. The boy had only five loaves and two fish.
5. He did what he could do.
6. He gave up his lunch.

Awesome-nya! Gives you the confidence that YOU, yes, YOU can make a huge impact in this world!


Yeah then we had like lots of food with like fellowship and like talking and stuff. The simple joys of cell group!


2. Youth Leaders' Training on Saturday morning.

The early bird catches the worm.

The early riser... just doesn't get enough sleep.

Sleep or no sleep, can't miss out on another one of Pastor Andy's terrific talks!


It was basically broken down into two sessions. They were called Before Breakfast and After Breakfast. (well no they weren't but breakfast is so significant in one's life...)

Before Breakfast.

He talked on LEADERSHIP.

1. Be the kind of follower you want to have. (HONOUR)
that's how you should deal with the people placed above you in leadership.

2. Be the kind of ministry you want to have. (HYPOSTATIZE)
and that's how to treat the people below you. hypo-whattt?? he just took it cuz he wanted it to start with H. it basically means making something real, in this case it's what you want to see in your ministry. get it? nope? oh well. haha.

Sorry, I don't feel like giving a full recap of his amazing talk.

He has a gift, I tell you.

Some people talk for an hour and it feels like two. He, on the other hand, talks for one hour and it feels like five minutes.

Don't we all wish we had Pastor Andies (plural of Andy lol) to teach Sejarah?


After Breakfast.

Recess Revo!

That amazing movement (or going to be a fully fledged movement soon la) in schools across Malaysia!

He challenged the fireBRANDS to pioneer Recess Revo in their schools, and talked about the whats and hows of it.


Yup yup, we were definitely inspired, more so by the testimonies he shared about Recess Revo in KL (like that one of a girl and her recess revo group telling the canteen operators that they'll pay for every student's recess food - in the end the Pengetua paid, and a lot of students approached her to ask more about Recess Revo).

Broke into groups and talked on how to implement recess revo in our sekolah menengahs and colleges.


Then, another big event which was unscheduled: Lunch! =D

ppl who went that morning


3. Youth Service on Saturday night.

Aiks.. no photos! pfft.

So, yeah, continue reading a photo-less writeup at your own risk. I've warned you.

Don't want to listen?

FINE.

BE THAT WAY.

SEE IF I CARE!

...

Childish statements aside, youth service that night was great great great.

Okay scratch 'great great great', since every single youth service is 'great great great'.

I'll go for... unique!

Yes, it was different.

Cuz we had Nehemiah doing announcements. Now THAT'S a first!

...okay that's one reason...

Pastor Andy and His Wife (Jay Loh) for the third time in two days.

And no, we never get bored of those two!

Tonight it was all about Crossing Over, [another word that starts with C i forgot - this was on the first LCD slide], and Consecration.

Based on the peristiwa Israelites crossing over the Jordan river, at the beginning of the book of Joshua.
1. You need to leave Egypt.
2. Pack your bags.
3. Let the presence of God lead you and take it with you.
4. Take the first step.
5. Sanctify (Consecrate) yourself.

Ended with a life-changing altar call.


Amazing preacher, even more amazing man of God!

And...


WE WANT HIM BACK FOR THIS YEAR'S ANNUAL YOUTH CAMP! =D

LOL.
