Well, my last entry was in August 2005. that’s really quite long ago huh?

But then I’ve never really been into this kind of stuff… anyhow… after much persuasion I’ve decided I should blog after all. I dunno how many people have actually linked me and practically given up coming over to see if there’s anything new to read…

Well, many things have happened since my last post.

I dunno where to start. It’s always like this when you’ve not shared about yourself or things going on for a long time and suddenly, there’s too much to tell.

Suffice to say, there’ve been a lot of change going on. Both in church and in my life.

Let’s talk church. Since Revd Titus left us for further studies, things haven’t quite been the same. There seems to be a lack of impetus on the part of the people who are left behind in church. Like, the wave of momentum has died out and now only a few people seem to be actively doing stuff in church.

Actually, my last statement is a bit off the mark. Last Saturday, May 13, there was a prayer meeting at YCDC premises. I think there were at least 20? If not more people who gathered to worship and pray from 2 pm to 5.45pm… in fact, they went on past 5.45pm. And from what I heard, they had a good time there.

As for myself and the youth, we were having youth service. I thank the Lord God Almighty for visiting us and doing a work in us. We were praising and worshipping but there came a point where it just didn’t seem to be breaking through… As if there was an invisible ceiling we just couldn’t break through.

Nat was leading and although she was moving her hand in the build up signal, neither guitar nor keyboard seemed to go any louder. I was on drums and I tried to raise my volume but it just didn’t seem to go.

Just as things were hanging, Rena came forward to encourage the people to press in. And we sang in tongues and prayed in tongues and just persevered until we broke through.

The congregation was invited to come forward. And everyone presented themselves before the Lord. We broke out into new song and worshipped.

Until I felt a leading from the Lord to get out of my seat and pray for the people. So, taking a step of faith, I stood up and prayed for the people to my left and right, slowly making my way down the line.

I spied Rena praying for the worship team members as Stephen took over playing the keys. I didn’t check back with the people I prayed for after service. Perhaps I should have. I know I prayed some things prophetically. And I really pray they come to pass.

Pastor Benny Ho once said that he writes down, or tries to write down the things that he prays over a church so that he can re-visit them as the years go by. If anything, it just serves to remind him or highlight to him, the prayers that have been answered.

I tried to scribble down as much as I could remember but I don’t have everything that I spoke for every one that I prayed for… =P

Oh well, Youth Ministry has been focusing on Community building these last few services. For many, perhaps it is like re-starting. As if we never seem to get off the ground.

Yet, I’ve come to realise that for the last 3 years, we’ve merely been adapting to changes and fighting fires and happenings that break upon us like waves upon the shore, one after another. Well, of all the preaching I’ve heard in the last few weeks, I’m convinced we are headed in the right direction.

Because now, we are making it clear to all just what PUNKT.COM is all about. Now, we have settled our Youth Committee and have confirmed our commitment to building this ministry in the Lord.

Now we say to those who are consistently with us, let’s press on in faith and sink our roots deep in Christ. Let’s make a difference in our lives! Let’s be willing to change and let God change us to be a loving community just as He commands us.

Now we say to those who used to be consistently attending service with us, come back! Join in! Let’s catch the common vision that God has called this ministry to be.

Point Community – We are community that points people to Jesus Christ, consisting of disciples who make disciples, a community committed to loving God and each other; committed to touching the world with God’s love.

I really pray that the youth who read this blog will fall down on their knees before God and build an altar of worship to God. Many of us have given our attention to every other thing.

We “serve” God by doing a lot of things for Him… but we don’t actually spend time WITH HIM.

So even as we build a community that is earnest in worship, let us all desire to first have His presence dwell in our lives. How? By offering our lives to Him, by giving Him full control. By walking in obedience. Amen!!!


Some announcements… of sorts… come June, we will be having a new addition to our church. He is not our vicar. We still dunno who our Vicar will be. But he comes in to help in the area of Chaplaincy work… that means school ministry. Still, there’s a chance he might be involved with the Youth ministry but we’ll know more when he finally arrives.

So let’s all keep Revd Michael Teh in prayer. That God’s will may be advanced in our church and ministry.

Hmm…. That’s about all… there is a YCDC and PUNKT combined chalet in June, 23-24… but PUNKT youths may stay till 25th morning… but that means we have to check out early on 25th to make it for Sunday Main service.

Oh, an IMPORTANT announcement – if there are any CHS youths reading this blog, pls make yourself present on 27 May. It is an important service and I pray everyone who has been a part of us join in. =)

Ok! That’s all I have time for… I will try to blog more often… instead of leaving months in between… hahaha… God bless you…!
