Improving our Stage Environment at Amplify Fridays

We had a great turn out at last week's Amplify Friday praise God!


I think got 130 - 140 people who came. The atmosphere was simply incredible. The passion in the room was amazing and the worship vibrant, heartfelt and intimate. To top off, the speaker Alfred Pang gave what I thot was a wonderful and challenging message: Fall deeper in Love with Jesus. Personally, it challenged me to not be satisfied with where I am now with God and to press deeper with Him.

Speaking of pressing deeper, I was thinking about the atmosphere of our auditorium at CSC and was wondering if we could improve our stage design. Currently, well, we have like..erm...no stage design whatsoever. What we do need a this point, is a stage. As the crowd gets bigger, its getting harder to address everyone on the platform. I hope we can get a platform for the worship leaders, vocalist, emcees and speakers at least.

So anyway, I googled environment design for Youth Worship settings and found a couple of ideas for it. It is important to me that we make the place attractive for young people. If they are not embrassed to bring their friends, then they will. And we can reach more people with the gospel. Hope these photos inspires us to do something more with our stage to make it more attractive.

Anyway, we would need to raise funds for it. If there is anyone who is reading this feels you would like to contribute, let me know. Amplify is committed to reaching young people and presenting the good news of God's love in a consistent, fresh and relevant way. Your contribution will go a long way in creating environments to that end.

If you would like to support our Cause, please drop by CSC on fridays or contact me.

Thanks,

Sixfold definition of maturity.


Maturity is:

- to stick with a job until it is finished.

- to bear an injustice without wanting to get even.

- to carry money without wanting to spend it.

- to do one's duty without being supervised.

- to know God loves and is with you even when you don't feel it.

- to obey God when its difficult.

..man...I have a lot to grow.

Its all coming together

Just received a letter from HDB in the mail.

It says that we will be able to sign the possession of our Flat and get our keys on the 17th of June 2008. A week from this entry.

Oh My GOD! How awesome are You?

My jaw dropped when I saw the date. We had been expecting it in August or later, but its next week?! In a week's time, we are going to be standing on the untiled floor of our new HDB, walk through our soon-to-be cookin' kitchen and starring at the walls that are going to be silent witnessness of our future together. Next week.

Phew... we had planed to start renos like after our wedding in Nov. But at this timing, we could actually get married and move in the next day! I cannnnot believe it how goood God is to us. He has really taken care of everything beyond what we could ask or imagine!

I know I'm gushing. But I really cannot help but feel so grateful to God. Every step of the way He has outdone us in his generosity. I can feel his smile upon our lives, like a Father who loves to gives gifts to his children because He is just loves doing that and it makes Him happy.

God, our provider, supplying all our needs according to his riches and mercy in Christ Jesus.

Thank you Lord. thank you for the home, thank you for the nice honest obliging contractor that is coming our way and thank you most of all, for loving us.
