On Friday 22 May, Jedi 3 celebrated Yanyan and Lucy’s birthday at New York New York restaurant at Citilink. You can’t believe it we almost have 17 (double the size of present caregroup) joining us for the special caregroup dinner. Gong’s 3 Thai friends decided to eat somewhere else due to the overcrowded group. But we still have Ayu and her three Indo friends on holiday visit to Singapore.

Today’s Flag Day was great and awesome! Jedi has got approximately 30(?) people turned up to support this event. The target for each individual is collect min. $100 within 4 ~5 hours. I think most of us have hit our target and a dozen of us have likely hit at $100 ~ $200 region (or more). So collectively we must have raised more than three thousands dollars in such a short time to help needy students through Hope Center!

My team comprises of C+C’s siblings YuJun, YuFei (Christine’s brothers) & ChongYao (CN’s brother), CN, Mark and myself. We were all quite serious about the fund raising and we split ourselves to stand at different locations (at Toa Payoh Central) to approach as many passing strangers as possible. We felt thirsty and tired after about 1 hour of continual asking for donation. During the break, we had bubble tea to quench our thirst at Mark’s place which is nearby the area. After that, we continued on for longer duration. By the time we finished, everyone was already feeling very tired physically but happy about the result.

Definitely with a group of close and gd bro’s and sis’ . Jedi 1,2,3 come together for a time of exercise, food and cooling at East Coast! God has truly blessed us with a great weather for the time together. The group was split into the CyClers… and the BlaDERS... Of course.. the coolest of the group r the BLADERZzz =Þ

The Bladers

Well.. the most important thing is still that everyone of us had a good time exercising and fellowship.. laughing at one another in a good way.. haha  (><). It’s through some challenges faced in the cycling and blading that we see “great character & conviction” in each individual too.. Three Cheers~~~to all~~~~

Whats to best to eat  it and coolz it out??

OF course… it eating together and sharing the experiences and the fun that we have during the day with one another. It’s always a great and enjoyable time to be around with close Bros’ & Sis’ .. Even the food might be not too tasty but the LOVE, JOY and COMPANY simply just make FOOD TASTY!!!! After all the comping and munching of food.. its time to cool our bodies with Gui Lin Gao… (Turtle Bell Paste??!!! Definitely not!!) It’s a herbal paste that help to maintain youth, complexion as well as cooling internal heat… (as mentioned from the shop assistant).

This is a testimony about how my mum was healed by God from stroke and left-brain damage that threatened to take her life. My God is real and I found that He was with me throughout my mother’s situation. Moreover, I also experienced warm hospitality from brothers and sisters in Christ from Jedi group. Yes, it is all about asking Jesus for healing when we prayed together.

My mum was admitted to ICU when she arrived at TTS Hospital on that day she suffered the stroke. Her condition was life threatening and the scan result confirmed she could pass away anytime. What was worst is I had no idea what to do and could just wait for her to pass away within a few days. Doctors further confirmed that she would pass away within a few days.  She had no response and was not able to open her eyes. I was very weak and deeply disappointed about the situation. I asked myself, “What should I do now?” I thought what I could do was just sit beside her and stare at her pass away. I felt I must do something about it. Yes, I remembered I still can put my hope in Jesus who healed people in the Bible – the blind sees, the dead rises from dead, etc. If these people could be healed by Jesus, there is no reason my mum cannot be healed by Him. So I started to pray to Jesus, my God, with all my heart. My caregroup people and my family also prayed for my mum every minute, every day, every time with faith.

Brothers and sisters! God answered our prayer. My mum’s condition slowly improved. Her high blood pressure gradually decreased, the swelling of her left brain stopped, her fever was gone and she started to breathe as normal. Day by day she was getting better. She was able to open her eyes and started to focus on people who visited her. Then, my mum also received warm welcome, encouragement and love from family members, visitors, Jedi care groups and other Hope Church members. It was amazing and it was all about our almighty God.

As my mum was saved from life danger and her condition improved, she was approved to move to normal ward. After that she could shout and make sound to communicate with us. Finally she was able to sit on the wheel chair. Brothers and sisters! God knew my financial limitation. He not only saved my mum but also improved my mum’s condition speedily. In this way she could fly back to Thailand to recover at home with more affordable medical expenses.

When my mum was at the hospital in Thailand, her cousin, my uncle, who had the same condition as my mum but he passed away three days later after he suffered a stroke in the brain. Without God my mum cannot be saved.

Recently, my mum was discharged from the hospital and she stayed at her home in Thailand. She is able to feel the pain at her right hand and leg (the left side of her body was paralyzed after the stroke hit her). She can stand up some more. She enjoys what is happening and watches movies at home. I really want to thank God for giving me the understanding of having faith in Him.  We did exercise faith and we received it! I trust that God is faithful and this is a miracle from Jesus, my God. Believe it and receive it!

Jabez & Christerson, the masterminds behind the fun ice-breakers game of “Guess what my occupation is” and “Egg à chick à chicken à Colonel Sanders” decided to make the game more interesting by penalising the ones that fail to win the game.

The ultimate treasure hunt game was really exciting and sweat-pouring. With the hints given to each group, we needed to hunt for 6 tiny mini quails eggs hidden in the surrounding of Gallop Gables (the apartment of CN & Christine). The game ended with picture shots in 3 different poses: Serious, happy & crazy pose.

Looks more like seriously cool look

Not forgetting, the most important part of this event was to share the Love of Christ! It was a perfect teamwork as Hendry shared his heart out and Grace translated to Mandarin, the message of God’s and Christ’s love for us. And of course with the powerful testimony shared by Christerson, it really summed up how our lives can be change and transformed when we invite Jesus into our life.

Evening came and the scan revealed grim results which required the family to make decision to operate on James’ mum. Doctor advised to gather all family members who are not in Singapore to visit James’ mum soon and to prepare for the worst. The decision was not an easy one for the family to make as the operation has a mortality rate of 50% but yet without operation James’ mum will be constantly in danger.

When Christine SMS us the news and suggested we sent text messages to James to encourage him, many ones fasted for God’s healing hand to be upon James’ mum too. James shared that night he was at a lost of what to do until he started to receive words of encouragements via SMS from brothers and sisters in Christ in JEDI. He was so encouraged and hopeful he was able to encourage his family members!

As the family decided to go ahead with the operation, the doctor dropped another bleak news saying the operation would no longer help James’ mum in any way as the damaged done to the brain was too immense. The doctor prepared the family with the worst-case scenario with James’ mum slipping into coma; her body would turn black due to obstruction of blood flow and finally she would pass away. Many ones in JEDI began to fast and pray together even more fervently for a miracle to happen and visited James’ mum whenever they could, during lunch time, after work, over the weekends and brother Yoppy and Roland even stayed overnight with James in the hospital.

Despite what the doctor said, we continued to look to God praying our requests onto him and slowly but surely, we began to experience the fruit of Matthew 18:19-20:

19″Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven.

20For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.”

James’ mum defied what the doctor predicted and did not slip into coma, neither did her body turn black. Her strength started to return and day by day, she improved little by little and soon she was able to respond to us with a smile, with a squeeze of the hand and even hi-5 (requested by sister Kelly J).

The family started to arrange for James’ mum to return to Chiang Rai to continue to receive medical treatment and be closer to family members as well. Finally, 15 days after James’ mum came down with stroke and defying doctor’s prognosis for her, she was able to return to Chiang Rai. Though short, the 15 days felt like forever to some of us. What happened to James’ mum was not only a miracle for him and his family, but it was a blessing for all of us inJEDI as well. It was 15 days filled with praying and fasting as we come together, allowing Him to work through us to support James and his family and how sweet it is to witness his miracle, answering our prayer request. Through this experience, I felt brothers and sisters in Christ in JEDI have grown closer and it is such a blessing to belong to this family of God.
