Hercules’ Conferences (Of Brain & MusclEz, PLUS LOVEZZZ)

Posted in Happenings on February 22, 2009 by jabezloh

On the fateful DAY of 14th FEB 2009,  at Hercules LAir in the Gallop Gables, Hercules of different height, weight and sizes gather for the 1ST HERCULES CONFERENCE!!!! It kicked started off with a discussions of “Being a real MAN”, Pointers and tips were given out and after a long discussion, actions need to be taken, after flexing of Brain Muscles, now it is time to FLEX the Reals Muscles…..

Galloping in a car and taxi, muser-killers …opps!!!  Muscular HErcuLes’ darrived at MAcRitchie Reservoir…..
UNSTOPPable, UNDENIABLE, UNDeFeatable, with Great RESOLVE, they went bravely to Kayak. (Dun PLAY PLAY AHHH) Yes, of cos, with wobbling and yet taut muscles, we braved the calm waters of Macritchie. I must say it does for takes a lot of skill for everyone to balance and stand on the kayaks, well there of cos times when we need a “bathe” and splash into the water. Everyone had a fun time of racing each other from one end to another and taking up the challenge of changing partners in different kayaks.. There was so much fun and laughter, best of all we get to know each other better…

Well of cos, its Valentines Day, being GENTLE-cules as well, we finish the day by invading the Warrior Princesses Lair just to whipped up a voluptuous meal for them… Dishes with love and sweat pour out for them accompanied by flowers simply touched the hearts of everyone. Hey  I  can proudly say, Guys can cook very well too!!! Wonderful food, the sweet aroma floating about.. slurp…display of love & care for our sisters (Oh can’t you feel the love in the air, its all around!!), seeing the smiles, joyfulness, laughters, all the muscles aches and training that we had on the day were definitely worth it!!!!

HAPPY VALENTINES!!!

Birthday Celebration for Jedi 3 January Babies

Posted in Fun@caregroup, Testimonies and sharing on February 16, 2009 by jianan08

JEDI3 – On 6 Feb, we had a special caregroup in Warunglele restaurant near Arab street – we celebrated birthdays for Mark, Florence and Mimie. We ordered a CNY promotion set which consists of ‘Yusheng’ to celebrate ‘lo hei’. It was a very delicious Indonesion meal and all of us were very satisfied and happy. This restaurant is strongly recommended to all the Jedis.

During the birthday celebration program, we had a very heart-warming sharing especially from the brothers. We affirmed them many things such as:

  • Florence – Her perseverance and faithfulness in serving God and shepherding her sheep. She has led the group well and we must thank her for gelling us together in love and unity despite the diversity of nationalities, cultures and languages. One of us is determined to stay with God all the way because of what she did! She already moved to a new group to serve God. All of us missed her presence!
  • Mark – He is a man of God. He really loves people. He is also seen as someone who trusts in the Lord. I was amazed by his calm response to the loss of laptop and important documents two months ago. He also possesses extraordinary leadership skills which all of us can learn from. Name blew us away by saying, ”This is the man that I want to follow” after finished his sharing.
  • Mimie – She is a very enthusiastic sister. She also has a big heart for people around her. Further, she took the  courage to serve God to the best of her knowledge despite facing many difficulties and challenges. I am grateful to her for her constant encouragements to all of us. She is back to Thailand for longer period this time. We will definitely miss her a lot!

Florence was very impressed by our sharing and told me (after the event) all Jedi3 guys are very eligible!

A Happy Reunion

Posted in Happenings on February 1, 2009 by Ben Chia

It was a great time of fellowship as JEDI unit came together on sat 31 Jan to celebrate Lunar New Year. We started of with a visitation to Joan’s place. Thank God for the wonderful food prepared by Joan and her mom as well as the food brought by Tian Tian as well. Really enjoyed the chicken wings prepared.

Next stop was to dine at East Coast Food Village. Thank God that my ex-colleague George also joined us for this event, it was a great time for catching up on previous times and getting to know how he was doing. Having dinner at Food Village was indeed a mouth watering food festa. There were many different varieties of food to choose from. The beautiful scenery as well as the atmosphere was one which I find would be hard not to fall in love with. :)

We did enjoy the topics discussed during the feast, ranging from current economic crisis to interesting stuff happening in each and everyone’s life.

After the meal, we went to have a relaxing stroll along the coastline.

I hope that you too have had a great time with your family and friends too.

Signing off and wishing everyone a happy new year on behalf of Jedi. :)
