Project Serve So Far

hey guys, this post was supposed to be posted up last week but i havent had the time. anws basically this post will be abt my past 2 weeks at project serve. ill be trying to post up once a day abt my life in project serve but when i cant, ill have a weekly one.

so the week started with staff meeting which was not bad but cos i didnt noe there was gonna be a msg, i didnt sleep enough the day before and so i was falling asleep. but after tt, i had an awesome time with my old ng of 2009, meeting up with my old ngls sophie and rachel again and with mano for the first time in a very long time. we had an awesome time of fellowship at settler's cafe at SMU and although it was a shame tt ian, ju and eve couldnt make it, it was a time well spent. so after mon came the super fun orientation camp with the cool project servants.

we had a nice time of worship and word about other people centredness at the YGOS place at woodlands and then we had the super fun (and tiring) "RACE!!" (which wasnt a race at all cos we all took our time (and my grp was last so we didnt consider it one so we didnt lose)) so it was basically a walk with tasks along the way, all leading to our campsite and the wonderful BB/GB Campsite which is actually where my church worships at. so i knew the area relatively well and had a fun time walking arnd 10-15 km to the various checkpoints and finally to the campsite. actually, something good came out of coming in last. since all the rooms were filled up, the guys in my group were given the air-conned bunk.

well on wed we had again worship and word and a time of reflection on the "Race" which really bonded the ministry together (just to clarify, we were grouped into our various ministries) we then had a raft building game which was fun except for the part where i was pumping up the inner tubes most of the time. it was an interesting lesson on how much we were willing to help and although it was a good activity to see how some pple would not go out of the way to help, there was a flaw in the fact tt there were too many pple in a grp so even if u wanted to help, there was no space to. i think the packing up was more fun for me but tts just me. and after washing up and everything we had another word session which was on freedom. Freedom from sin and into service. it focussed on like the secular contradiction of freedom and service but in reality, we have been freed from sin and now have the freedom to serve God.

ok its getting late and i have to sleep alr if not ill die at tmr's staff meeting. ill basically recap wadever happened to me this past 2 weeks but as of teachings and going into wadever ive learnt spiritually, ill do tt in tmr's post. ok so basically, this past week has been a time of learning new skills and learning of the word. on mon we had staff meeting, on tues we learnt camera angles and storyboarding and on wed we started filming for the advertisement for the PArts (Performing Arts) Valentine's Day Event. and on thurs we did street e which was super awesome. on wed we also learnt abt this evangelism tool called 2 ways to live which required us to memorise the whole tool and we had the test on thurs before we left for street e. ill talk more abt street e on the next post. on fri did devotions at bugis junction and finished filming for the advertisement. then we went back to edit. then on sat we did some additional filming and some editing and in the afternoon we had a thanksgiving session for those who helped out with CCIS last year where i met a few new friends and a new soon-to-be ACSian. oh yea the previous sat i did ultimate fristbee which was so fun. and i went back to acjc both on wed and fri for open house and CF respectively.

well tts like a summary of all i did the past 2 weeks. will talk more abt my growth in my spiritual life and wad i learnt tmr (hopefully). im gonna sleep now. cyas:)
