Ar har! this post is specially created blog about the Encounter Camp. The camp is just too good and i hope i can pen down my feelings as clearly as i can. =D . Its a 4 days 3 nights camp.

Day 1- Took a cab down to Prince George Park(NUS) and reached NUS at around 1 plus. I was kind of puzzled by the emptiness in that area, because i was wondering " shouldn't it be alot of our church people walking around or something? " Gave a call to my sheep, he told me i'm in the right place, so i started looking for the Multi Purpose Hall. Walked around like some lost tourist but due to my good sense of direction, i managed to find it! (talking about self praise, oh well. =D ) The hall was empty because all them were playing games at the stadium where i need to take a shuttle bus to reach there. Took the shuttle bus with dehui and we were taking our time to walk there ( hoping can skip some of the games, hehe, i'm bad) .

Upon reaching the grandstand, i saw Leejun and Walmond. Sat with them and we just crapped and laugh at how some of them play the games. Typical leejun and me conversation, always joking around. Went over to sit with my group and we just kept on cheering for our group. NorthEast NorthEast! The loud cheers just led me think of those days when i'm still in SA, where every year, we will go down to Rugby finals and all the boys will just cheer our lungs out creating this strong sense of school spirit. Went to play this human caterpillar game that got my palms scald due to the hot track surface. When i approach the medics, they apply the antiseptic that almost cause my heart to burst out. Its so painful omg, but thankfully, its only 1 small part. haha. After games, played field soccer for awhile before heading back to PGP for wash up and dinner.

After dinner, its Praise and Worship, omg, its so so so nice. Can feel the presence of the holy spirit moving through each and everyone of us in the congregation. Had teachings then altar call. I wanna have to desire for Jesus! *keep the flame burning brightly ever* =D. Went back to our dorms and the CG had maggie mee supper together, fun laughter and joy just filled the entire room. Talked to JunHong for around 45mins before i zzzz.

DAY 2- Woke up feeling sleepy but my heart is filled with anticipation and expectancy for the Praise and Worship and Teachings later that overwhelms the tiredness in me! BUT, i need to have breakfast first. hehe. Had breakfast then PnW. This worship was particularly personal to me, i can feel that God is like so near to me! His awesome presence just makes me wanna shout wow!!!! I was so touched by his love for me that i'm so sinful and yet he still loves me. Upheld by his love, his grace is my source of strength and im just totally awed by him! Whenver i look back at my life, i'm so ashamed and sorry by whatever i've done. Sometimes i will be too ashame to face HIM, but its his grace and love that just overcomes it all. He will always lift my head up with both of his hands and say, Son i still love you. This is the exact thing i felt during that worship! =D =D .

Had teachings then its lunch. Always looking forward to meal time, super hungry. FOOD! HAHA. Had some games then we gather as a Sub District. Freedy talked to the group and challenged us. Had games briefing, split into different groups. I'm the game team leader again. HAHA. Nothing much happen after that. Once again, its Praise and Worship and teachings again! YES! lol. The altar call was a fantastic one. The whole entire congregation just prayed for 1 another, leaders praying for their people. I just love this sight of people praying for 1 another, love and sincerity is being demonstrated with a God element that makes everyone become as one body. The amount of time the teachings altar call took eats into the night games time and therefore, games was postponed to the next day.
My caregroup then went to buy all the snacks and drinks they want then we found this meeting room where there's aircon and table. We just sat down and started to fellowship, we shared about our lives and what they learn. I began to challenged the group and giving them individual goals that they should aim for. 15 by end Aug and the vision is 50 people in our school's CG . We will hit it, no matter the cost! Hang around with Khaishuen and Jason then i went down for walk with 2 of my bestie! Alvin and Weilun. HAHA. we just began to talk and talk, its top secret ya! LOL. Began to drag our feets with heavy eyebacks to our dorms at 3am. *yawns*

ok. i will blog the DAY 3 and 4 in the next post! right now. i gtg! =D
