Hey ya'll!!! Recently Seremban COC just sent a contingent down to the tiny island south of Malaysia (a.k.a the highly respectable country called Singapore) to participate in the Moulmein group Singspiration. You might wonder what is this singspiration???? Well this is where we sing and receive inspiration from God and His word through our singing and fellowship therefore...
Sing + Inspiration =SINGSPIRATION
It was an eventful trip where we sped by the North-South highway at breath-taking speeds in a bus, and had a brief encounter with Singaporean customs officials... (nothing much, someone just brought pepper spray which apparently is illegal in Singapore :P). We left our hometown Seremban at about one am on a cool saturday morning and reached our destination(Moulmein COC) at 6am. We reached Singapore border checkpoint at 4:30 am. To burn up the time, we were led by our old friend Uncle Edwin Choy through this awesome country. First things first breakfast..... Here we treid the world renoun Kah Hee prawn mee!!! Nom nom nom :D And then in the afternoon we took the ever efficient Singaporean MRT to Orchard station to take the girls of our contingent out shopping where the boys spent 2 hours sleeping in the hawker centre while the girls went to heaven XD. Later in the afternoon, we went back to the church compound to Bathe and prepare for the nights activities, and play some games amongst ourselves while waiting.... at last......
SINGSPIRATION!!!!!
We had a blast to start with, thanks to the leader of the singspiration Sue Ann. We enjoyed ourselves and were filled with joy as we sang praises to him and gave thanks to him for the blessings he has given us.
After singspiration, with our throats soar from the singing, the singaporeans decided to take us to their local hangout placefor ice-cream. There again we talked and sang and enjoyed ourselves in this family of Christ. This is whre we truly belonged, together.
We decided to stay through the night and join the Moulmein-eans for church service, and did not regret our choice :D We enjoyed another round of AWESOME singing, led by Don, and then enjoyed a dance performance that displays the love of Christ in us. We also learned a lot from Jordan and Uncle Mark who both shared a few scriptures and their meanings with us. We also had a wonderful lunch prepared by the Molmein-eans, which spelled heaven in every language... as the day went on, it came the time for our departure. As a last activity, some people decided to stay at church to play a dance game while others went to a LAN shop to play DOTA. LOL XD. But no matter how Man tries to slow time, it always goes faster. The time for us to leave has truly come, and we bid our last farewells. The Moulmein CoC youths were at the gates to bid us farewell as the Singaporean cabs took us to the bus station. As the church ever shrunk in the rear view mirror, I coudn't help but wonder and hope when the next fellowship with these guys will be :D As I put a close to this blog entry, I just wanna thank God for bringing us together and allowing us to know this wonderful group of people, and pray that he will bless them in all that they do for Him and His works.
