"For all eternity our souls will intertwine, for I am yours and you are mine. We are joined by body and heart, we are one that none shall part."

Why settle for nothing when you can have the best of everything?

it has been a great 3 days. WOW.. really not much words can describe the life transformation many of us experince during the camp. from disbelief to absolute faith, its really something that changed so deeply w/in us. something deep within us shifted, God moved.

four objectives:
1. break free frm addiction, affliction
2. grow closer and know more abt God
3. stir up passion and compassion for the lost
4. become united w/ the cg, unit.

this is the first ever camp that all of my needs haven been met specifically, really been touched by God. its this peace, this joy that transcends all, that convicts me that there is no other way. indeed, Jesus is the way. its been an amazing camp, wanna be able to overflow and share this spirit that many of us have caught to those who have missed the camp. do not get left behind...

day one:
games. a crazy time, where cheers and shouts sound thru the sch. spirit was kept up by the sportsmanship shown, yet at the same time, pride for our own district. then it rained but it din dampen our spirits. we went to the hall and saw cheerleading and king of food.. it was great.

went to wash up and opening ceremony began. our spirits rose and we were excited for the teachings to start. pastor (ahem) David began with the first lesson, though he told us to not call him pastor, he challenged us not to. then he began teaching. he weaved testimonies into the points he was making, challenged us to do our 100 percent. he brought up our faith level, and challenged us to "1 bring 1", " share the gospel with someone everyday". he made us believed in God's ability, that we would reach 1000 by end Dec. although we did not proceed onto the second teaching, we learnt much, and God was moving in the air. His presence was tangible during altar call, it was AMAZING. we went back to our rooms, which was real nice, and shered some stuff, promised some stuff, then slpt.


day 2:
the next morn began with devotions and mass dance. then breakfast and teachings. the second lesson was sought to fit into the packed schedule, but was unsuccessful. we din do the third lesson, but it was instill in us thru out the camp. we had mismatch, which was really crazy, and the concert where our faith reached a cresendo, a high that promised to sustain thru out our lives. the teachings cemented our faith that 1000 would be possible, and that when we do our 100%, God will give it to us. We heard of miracles, and David was really high, making lame jokes and all.. he kept us laughing, yet also focused on our goal. we had district huddles where our leaders challenged us to go beyond the goals they had set. new goals were made, with numbers we thought were impossible before. by faith, by God, we knew that we would be able to reach our goal. something really changed deep within us, the Holy Spirit moved in us. then some of us had unit huddles. then we went to slp or played the whole night away..

EAST DREAM:
a cg in every sch
a cg in every lvl
a unit in every sch
a unit in every lvl
a sub-d in every sch.
WOW

day 3:
dragged ourselves to audi then dining hall, did devotions and ate brakfast. then had mass dance, then testimonies and prayed for shirley and had final praise.. NE won games overall.. we were all waiting to leave camp, not because we din enjoy it, but cos we were excited to share the Word with the lost. we wanted to start SOON, NOW. had photo taking then left. to be in the world, not of the world but influence the world.

from johnson:
CHRISTIAN = I.A.N ( i am nothing)


Jesus -> 1
us -> 0

1,000,000,000 (valuable)
0.000000000001 (not valuable)


mind blowing simple logic.this spirit is going to last to x'mas and beyond. 1000 is going to be passe.. indeed 1000 may be too small for us, let us race for the glory of God. we are going to make it. i am. are YOU?

God, be with all those who have made a pact with you to do all that we can to extend Your kingdom. bless us and send people our way. we submit unto You. in Jesus' name, amen.

blessed,
shiwei :]

went to shanghai, hangzhou and yiwu. 23-27 nov. been a crazy 5 days, a luxurious one.

things frm china:

1. zebra crossings there are for zebras
2. i went there to smoke
3. i ate at the revolving table everyday.

wanan know what they mean? come ask me! it feels so surreal at times, and i have to remind myself that i have actually been there. weird. i miss flying in a plane.

then prom came. was cool, i enjoyed looking different, hopefully prettier, (which gal doesn't??) and had a fun time with the people ard. not much of a bang or explosion, but groovyly cool and sleek. haha.

there are so much imperfection going ard that it makes me realise that God is the glue that binds us. He is the one that calls to us. we can nv be perfect on earth, but He'll enable us with watever we need to succeed.

i wanna learn guitar!! can't sing and play, someone help me?? haha.

miss lots of ppl whom i have not been seeing regularly. love ya!
