Friday to Saturday (TENTs at East Coast Park)
Its like back to back retreats and conferences! Last week YMLC, this week, GAP retreat next weekend YM Comm retreat!!!! And then got crusade retreat and "kelong" spiritual retreat coming in the weeks to come too!
Anyways this overnight prayer retreat certainly was a whole new experience praying and worshiping by the stars! And we just had limitless time! So we cld pray and pray till past midnite! How often we get such a chance! And God certainly revealed to each of us many things abt the ministry as well as our attitudes in facing our LORD! One thing that God impressed to me strongly while praying is... before God can actually show himself...we all need to have this "FEAR OF THE LORD"... and this is something which i have been learning recently too..especially when i fast dinner for the first time in my life! And it wasnt easy..but that FEAR of Him help me to keep to my fast.=)
Preparation time...
(wanping came down earlier just to help set up the tents! Thanks for bringing the tents!)
The rest of the gappers coming from church...
(in the bus.... see the nice scenery when we past marina bay...ronda and celine on right pic)
Arrival of east coast park!
(sat in a circle...played some ice breaker games and POLAR BEAR! before we started the praying)

THE STORMY WINDYYYY NIGHT!
It was an interesting experience when the WIND BLEW like madddd in the middle of the night...and our tents almost FLEW while we were inside.. hhaha!
(we were almost crush when the tent canvas press down against us! haha)
(this is what we sang in the STORM! haha)
The next morning! 7am!
(can see elliot sleepy look! ... it was abt to rain again... but we rush to take down the tents...)
After packing.... we all carried the HEAVY things , devotion time... and walk abt 4km to the macs for breakfast!...
My bag was achinggg from carrying the 2 tents for more than 4km straight! I think they weigh abt 20 Kg altogether!!! MAYBE MORE!...
