Ha. Hey all who still even catch up on my blog.
I haven't been updating ever since I came back from Hong Kong. I went there for a Uni-Y conference with the other Uni-Ys in the ASEAN region, from Hong Kong, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Philippines and so on.
Anyway most of the online action ever since I came back have been happening on my facebook. The HK people are really facebook addicts, so I'm catching up with them there. As well as on skype.
Realized only recently that skype is really great for chatting without using my hands. Lazy me. Haha.
Anyway it was an amazing time. The sharing of culture, the fellowship, the international meetings, the jokes, the interesting fling stories. Really love those guys. I guess for us maybe we've managed to interact with the nicer people. After all, they're all in Uni-Y to want to make a positive change in their society.
But it's great.
We're hosting the mini UN meeting next year in singapore. And we formed the coalition called University YMCA Asia Pacific. How cool is that. Haha.
Actually before this meeting I didn't have any idea how developed the Uni-Y overseas really were. They've generally been around longer than we were, but I must comment that the Singaporeans are probably the most competent in terms of like presentation skills and report writing and stuff.
Not to say its a good thing; these people from other countries I feel, live a more all rounded lifestyle than us. Who cares if they don't do it as well. They're happy people nonetheless.
Hmm, next year when they come Singapore must preach up a storm to inspire them to go back to their countries to make a real difference =)
Oh yeah, the singapore team got a chance to lead a devotion session. Kinda like a short short cell group. It was a great time for alot of people, including unbelievers, and one of them told me she felt like crying during the worship session and felt goosebumps. Praise the Lord ;) Holy Spirit was there.
You must understand these people don't get the kinda worship experience we get in CHC. More like the traditional kinda religious session. So I think it was refreshing for them for a more comtemporary style. =) Alot of them asked for the worship song 'still' after it. Really happy. Just a pity we couldn't take more of the sessions. Might have gotten a few saved tho. ( Must understand this is a community service conference. Haha. )
But it really opened up my heart alot. To see people from other countries and all. A refreshing change from just SMU and CHC. Not that either are bad. It's just great to know people from entirely different cultures ;)
Anyway, here are just some updates. The deeper issues, another time bah. ;)
