Growing in Christ -$5
This class is highly recommended for believers who have come to know Christ for 6 months or less. Come and join us in a fun time of discovering how to grow in Christ and why we do what we often do, through many games and sharings!

In His steps -$5
What would Jesus do if He were in your shoes? The Bible described that Jesus was tempted in every way- pride, anger, lust, self-control and, yes, even being emotional- yet He was without sin. Join us as we learn to walk in His steps and develop character traits that are hallmarks of a Christian life.

Desconstructing Hope- $5
So, you may have been in Hope Church for months or years. But do you actually know all about our Hope churches international? Or understand all about our values, vision and philosophy? Find out what Hope DNA is really like and how we expect God to use us to fulfill the Great Commission.

24/7- $5
Find it hard to manage time? This class is ideal for members and leaders desiring to enhance their self-management skills amidst multiple roles and responsibilities in life. Come and learn about various practical skills to help you effectively utilize your time. Only one life and soon it will pass, only what's done for Christ will last. Make every minute of your life count!

Care leaders course 1 -$15
A leadership course to equip members to be core team members in the caregroup. It emphasizes on the character and skills required to be an effective armor bearer.

Care leaders course 2- $15
A follow up from Care leader course 1, this leadership course further equips the students with the necessary skills and understanding to be an effective care leader. Areas that are covered include how to grow and manage a care group and how to train up a successor for the care leader role.

I believe your leader/shepherd might have already told you which course you are going for! This is a -must not miss- courses! It will benefit you alot, no joke :D See you there alright!

OASIS CAMP!

So we've heard that school's getting pretty tough. We recognize that work sometimes is a pain in the, uh, neck. We've heard your sighs, seen past the optimistic smiles and- Oh would you look at those eyebags the size of China! Our verdict: You need rest. Don't miss out the perfect chance to rejuvenate yourself physically, spiritually and emotionally! Whether you're for Clinton or Obama, coke or pepsi, tall or not so tall, Oasis Camp has been designed to meet your needs and you're bound to love it all the same.

JIAYOU PEOPLE!
OH OH OH, HOWS YA EXAMS DEVOTION GOING? LEARNT MANY MANY THINGS SO FAR?
Do blog about wad u've learnt!

Weiping & me went to Jermine's house yesterday to do the devotions! read & prayed tgt. great tym spent.(:

i learnt abt I AM VICTORIOUS IN GOD!

Deuteronomy 28:13
The LORD will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.


and NOT to compromise on God no matter wad. even when im tired etc. i should put God before my agenda.


for today, the third day's devotion, talks about how gracious Jesus is, and how blessed we are cos He gives us second chances! not just A second chance, it's second CHANCES!! meaning that even if we tried really hard & things dont work out, we can still ask Him! He will be there for us, to give me a second, third or fourth chance. but i cant take God for granted lar. (:

& also, an action word struck me.

EXPECT.

how often do i expect God to move?
whenever a problem appears, do i expect God to do sth & make things work out?

HOW ABOUT YOU?
WHAT DID U LEARN TODAY?
DO YOU EXPECT GOD TO DO STH THIS EXAMS PERIOD?

oh, if u wan the softcopy, ask me for it!! anyway, i've sent to ur cls alrdy. but can ask me too.. (:

pics will be up soon!!!

add oil, my dear frens! (:
LOVE WEST D! (:

Apparently, west D blog had died for 16 days but it's okay.
SIHUI is here to the rescue! *clap clap clap* HAH!

Anybody know what had actually happened?
Or what is coming up real soon?

anybody : april fool lah ..
me : woah!
anybody : EXAMS LAH!
me : *fainted*

WEST D ROCKS?! AMEN? :D

Yesterday after service, west D headed down to istana park with the other westies for our west huddle. After a few minutes, all of us were separated into different groupings with other westies and then our west huddle began!

Basically, all the stations were from istana (either) to meridien/smu or anywhere to anywhere. LOL! I've no idea what i'm typing anywhereay :X As we ended our west huddle games, we had prize presentation and also dewen's speech before the birthday celebration for march & april babies!
yunian's team kena forfeit!hah!
both team got consolation prizes(cabbage! hah! see minyi's back!! got ghost:X
LOL it was jas lah! haha!)
zheng kai's team got 2nd prize
sihui's team got 1st prize

The whole west were told by BEAR that April babies were borned in the month of april fool so they should know alot about making people laugh at their jokes. Unfortunately, as the 3 april babies were told to say some jokes to make the march babies laugh, all of them failed -.-

So what does this means? BORNED IN APRIL DOESNT MEAN CAN JOKE LAH!
LOL :X

After the whole west huddle, west d came together for a short meeting before all of us went off to have our dinner together (: Poor UL & CL(S) that they cant join us for our fabulous/fantastic/excellent/magnificent/enjoyable/wonderful/great dinner because of their YCLM! So what does this means again? Dont go for YCLM next time lah!

LOL! KIDDING!

The 8 of us, from the youngest to the oldest :
JARREN, EUGENE, HUAIQIAN, WEIPING, QUANSHENG, CRYSTAL, SIHUI, WEIKOON
(oh my goodness, im the 2nd last sia! oh my oh my oh my. it's my turn now -.-
i really wished jency and regina were there as well... ROFL)

went to the nearest kopitiam beside SMU and all of us sat at a 2 tables & 8 chairs seat. all of us sang grace and we started our funny conversations companied with loud laughters before we left the kopitiam.

on the way to dhoby ghaut mrt interchange, all of them bullied and tortured poor sihui. WHY?! Because she laughed easily, so they kept making her laughed like dont know what siao chabo -.- and the most funniest thing for yesterday was (take a look):

on the way to mrt interchange

jarren turned to huaiqian: "QUANSHENG!(shepherd)"
huaiqian: "HUH?! YOU CALLED ME QUANSHENG?!"

quansheng: "HAHAHA IM HUAIQIAN!"

then, they started changing identity

quansheng&jarren&huaiqian: "SIHUI! %^$^*&^&^%&"

while they were trying to explain what happened
sihui laughed unknowingly -.- and turned blurred

sihui turned to crystal: " EH JARREN!"
crystal: "WHAT?! I? JARREN?!"

everybody started LOL-ing

sihui turned to quansheng/huaiqian/jarren : "SEE LAH! MAKE ME CONFUSED!"

they continued LOL-ing
while they crossed the pedestrian crossing, jarren and dont know who had a very small funny conflicts but sihui didnt heard it.

jarren: "the bus banged me, the bus will have a dent. "

sihui & quansheng burst out in laughter
apparently, sihui was the one laughing non stop

eugene: "what's so funny? funny meh?!"
huaiqian: "huh? i don't get it"

then they started explaining again & again.
after a few minutes while walking, sihui calmed down her laughters.
quansheng& eugene dont know do what
then she burst into laughters .. till cannot stop -.-






SEE! all bully poor sihui LOL! :X *kiddinggg*

x3333 looooove west D loooads!
