Running a youth conference is definitely not easy. *salutes* the COM. Well done people!. I guess like many others I am still trying to get use to the idea of a conference as we are so used to and comfortable with the usual year end Fun Camp. As Pastor Cuixian shared her vision with the congregation on the Finale night, I can't help but to agree that its something that R-age is capable of doing and indeed, we do have the potential to succeed in it. Not easy definitely cos its so much easier to run something that we are all familiar with - camps, rather than threading on unknown grounds, with that I see much faith is required. But R-age is able to give so much more cos we are so blessed. *ponders*
What I really love about Rhema:
The Primary 6s. Haa I would spell 'Adorable" with a Capital A man!!!!! However, it can be hair-tearing too! On the first night, I walked to the girls' dorm and said a night prayer with them before they turned in. They were so well behaved, when I opened the door, they were all in their sleeping bags with just a couple who were still trying to get ready.
Suhui: Goodnight girls!
Girls: Goodnight... (they sounded like angels)
Suhui: Sweet dreams!
Girls: Sweet dreams.. (they really sounded super sweet)
Suhui: Love ya.
Girsl: Love ya too! (Aw... they are just such darlings right?)
The moment I walked out of the dorm, there was barely any noise.
So I walked to the boys' dorm and did likewise.
The boys din reciprocate much espcially the part on 'love ya' haaa... but a few did and I thought that was very endearing to hear some of the little ones said it. :) Just when I thought they were quite angelic, the moment I walked out, I could hear boys shouting and a couple of them hoping around in their sleeping bags and yes! I did see pillows flying ahhh! Give me a break! And thats just the first night...
What moved me the most?
The encounter with Zoe and the visit to the Old Folks home that afternoon impacted me a great deal. It left me feeling very grateful of the love and salvation that I have from my Abba Father. It also moved me to tears as I worshipped that night when I was singing about the love of God. Cos I felt so burdened for them who has yet known Jesus. Who has yet been embraced by that Agape love. Life is just different with Jesus. What can I do about it? What should I do about it?
