IGNITE Conference 2007! 11-13 march !!!!

IGNITE Conference 2007! 11-13 march !!!!
Day 1 Sunday
Wesley Ym really is quite in bad shape right now... first of all, my leader was sharing abt how it was so lifeless when he was standing at the back of the ballroom during worship..and its quite truee lor... i mean i cld sense it even at the front.... so next time, maybe our grp sld stand like at the back and worship God! and hopefully the younger ones at the back will know how to really worship God when they see us.... And my small grp is kind off in a bad shape right now...was discussing it with Englee and ellen abt it only recently... and was also talking to soe after small grp that day..and we all really agree that... spliting is inevitable...BUT at the same time..how do we split? Our grp is just too huge right now..and bcoz of this it might cause ppl to drop out in the future.. we cant have a good sharing or discussion now and what we said at the last retreat on how our grp sld grow more spiritually this time,will be quite hard for us to reach... and the bonding will be hard too. And as an aysgl...i actually felt quite draining during and after small grp time recently... i always feel obligated to entertain newcomers...and sometimes i just want a break on sundays to be with my friends... I really need God's guidance and wisdom to guide us on how we really sld grow as God's Clay small grp in the future... sighhh.....

After that was the X-trainers Initiation!!!! it was all the way at Sen's parents house deep inside binjai park in the west of singapore which we took like 20 mins just to walk in.... ben yap steph and me were suppose to do the icebreakers!!!! We were like the Ben Steph Ben team! aka backstreet boys! haha! we also ate really weird pizzas bought by sen! it was JAPANESE pizzass! Like wasabi, seaweeds and jap stuff! but was quite niceee... we played all kind of interesting games with the new x-trainers... the mind reading game was pretty interesting!!!! anyway after that rush back to church after getting a ride from steph mom... met josh,jolyn there at the children's ministry and it really brought back really old memoriesss when i was there...the kids were all soo TINY lor!!!! I doubt there was like any pri 6 children... anyway at first i was suppose to go changi aiport to send a couple of crusaders off for mission trip...but i change at the last min to come for ignite.... met up at kembangen with nicole,andrew,jo and kexin as Gladwin drove us there in his van.... worship was good! and the speaker was the best part! can't remember that pastor name... onli rmb him as "BOOM BOOM" thats his nick name when he was given during his professional football days in America... he shared his life testimony...... and he really made it very very FUNNNY LOR!!!!! I was like laughing thru out his whole sharing!!! and was pretty much entertain!!!!! I gotta say... i have never laugh sooooooo much by a particular speaker in my life!!!!!!!!!! Thats how good he was!!!!

Day2 monday
I didnt expect to go for the second ignite nite service..bcoz i had like tons of work to finish and submission was the next day...and i was suppose to help with kenneth and andrew with the march event video too...bcoz kenneth didnt want to be alone with andrew ahhaha!...anyway yewjin came for it this time too.... and the whole time even until late evening i was still contemplating if i sld go lor! and even if i go..i go for which.... and on msn..ppl were trying to drag me for ignite..and at the other side..kenneth trying to drag me to help them.... sooo like at 5.50 pm!!! i decide to go for ignite...and i rushed like some superman..... stop my work! and rushhh all the way to bedok.... to meet steph,matthias,josh,jolyn and denise...and after a quick dinner at bedok we took bus 222 and realise halfway we were on the WRONG SIDE!!!! it went oneeee BIG ROUND!!!!! and back to bedok interchange before reaching there .... a 10 min ride becoming 20-30 mins!!! Oh gosh...we were late oready..and still cld take the wrong side.... but strangely we reached just in time! the message was abt Seismic release of the Holy spirit...and it was like abt the different "earthquakes" that occured in the bible.... wont go into the details...but to be honest..i was trying to keep up with this pastor..he was like rapping lor! LOL..he spoke quite fast..and his accent...was abit hard to catch.... anyway after the message...the ministry time was reallllllllly looooooong! and it was extremely charismatic.... i was okay with it bcoz i have seen worst before... but.... i felt that the wesley ymers around me were kinda feeling a little uneasy.... we like sang the Fire fire fall down song without music for like 20 mins straight...and it was really like pure worship without music.... overall..it was rather interesting...... anyway had to rush back after that bcoz i had to submit my graphic art on sounds!!! in the end spend another sleepless nite till abt 5 am! and had to wake up 2 hrs later to go school...
.
(the graphic art on sound i spend the entire nite doing on photoshop...and my lecturer kinda like it!!! PHEW!!! i didnt waste my niteee)
