ARROW CAMP 2008 HITTING THE MARK-FLASHBACK SERVICE

Hey beloved southies, hmmm i was kind of hestitant as to whether i should post this up here. Cuz it's taken from My IM team blog. But it's better to bless than to keep everything inside of me right? haha so here's the post=D

For last arrow service. i can only describe the deco in 2 words- SIMPLY MIND-BLOWING.
the deco was really simple. photos and captions that's all. but what that really came out of each photo was the TANGIBLE presence of Daddy God!. As i was putting up the pictures, i cant help but to look intently at each of them. Each picture SOOOOO precious because each of them spoke of a PERSONAL INTIMATE journey our Daddy has with each of His beloveds during the camp. Especially the ministering ones whereby people were worshipping, crying and some were hugged. And somehow i'm not just touched by their journey with Abba, but i got reminded by Abba Himself of the PERSONAL journey He took with me during the camp as well. And that's really really precious! because when all else fades,when everything in my life is fulfilled and has ended, Jesus remains.=D

As much as the people around us making a difference for our time in camp, as much as seeing our lives transformed and our relationships with our friends and family being blessed, as much as we're excited about the future seeing miracles and wonders, seeing our calling coming to pass, at the end of it all when we have all come to a place where all our desires and dreams fulfilled, all these dont matter at all, not anymore.

What that is and will be TRUELY special and SOOOO precious in our hearts, is actually the journey Our Abba took with us.All the bitterness, all the sweet moments, everything. It is just that journey we cherish deep and hold close to our hearts , simply because we EXPERIENCE HIm at such a personal, such a intimate level, that only Jesus and i understand, and it's only between the both of us.=D And that's the sweetest thing to a human heart - The EXPERIENTIAL LOVE of GOD=D

And for last arrow service, i got reminded of that as i served. i believe you peepos did as well. SIMPLY MIND-BLOWING=D

Arrow Camp

Day 3!! (sorry took so long! the thought of uploading the pics for the most eventful day was overwhelming. haha)

quiet time in the morning. i think its a brilliant idea to instill such "godly habits". i actually like it, and still try to keep that habit even after camp. u guys should try it, wake up early in the morning to read the bible.. etc. you cant help but be reminded about god's love and grace throughout the day..


Breakfast!! as usual, the spread of good stuff..

kailin is not hungry. haha.

awesome service then its lunch!! this is how well fed we are. eat and eat and eat. haha

yay Games in the afternoon..

the clues and instructions as to where to go. and on the right, out first station.

didnt take pics for the very wet second station. but i learned a lot from that. the act of physically shielding the quotes from the bible that was kept close to the body instill the need to also keep the word of god close to oneself and not let it be attacked and destroyed. very good game!!

hunting for jewels in the sand!



the soapy lemony dizzy game. fun. haha.

the 'holy spirit' game.


while walking to the next station i was so impressed as i saw them preparing for the night. what a beautiful setting!! by the pool..

the game that we actually finally won!!! hurrah!!

off to shoot at the target..

tada! it reveals this poster. then we had sharing on the games at quite a scenic place. (i mean, compared to other grps who did so in the outdoor shower next to the pool? haha wayy better)

back to the room to get ready for the night! thats my next door room mate.. its great to open the connecting door! cos they were like.. the only new ppl i met.

cant believe we actually went along with the idea.. sushis?!

after the food and performance, we went for service, but not without chilling in the rooms for a little while first. haha.

joanne was suppose to bring her jacket, but brought her pants by accident instead. haha!!

very late night sharing. good to end the camp with..

- end of day 3-
