What can I say, Impact last week was just awesome. A lot of things happened last week. Last week was the first Impact prayer meeting! :D For those of you who don't when it is, it's at 3.30 on the 2nd and 4th weeks of the month. :) MAKE SURE YOU COME ARR!
To start of Impact, we had a sharing from El Presidente Lim Yi Fen from Matthew 5:6 : "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." We must hunger and thirst for righteousness and also do the right thing even if it means that we would stand out in the crowd. After that, she got us to reflect on our week and whether we had been living righteously in anything that we did.
As we were all in a very sentimental mood, worship by Nat started with songs of worship followed by praise songs. I'm sure we all agree that Nat is an awesome worship leader. :D
After that, we had testimonies from Shin Keat and Marcus. Shin Keat did a creative skit for his testimony (with the help of other Step Up-ers) while Marcus, well, used his awesome public speaking skills to present his testimony. :D
Well then, that was pretty much it for the 2nd week of Impact. :D
Again, prayer meeting's at 3.30 on the 2nd and 4th weeks of the month. (The next one's on the week after Chinese New Year.) Hope to see you guys there! Have an awesome Chinese New Year and Gong Xi Fa Cai. :D

Change.
Wow 1 month of holidays flew by and the school term begins. I'm pretty sure most of us have learnt alot from last year, whether it was about ourselves, about others or about God. So now with the past year behind us, I'm sure we can proudly say we have come out of 2011 more matured and ready for a fresh year full of challenges.
Woohoo! 1st day of Impact was da bomb! The main thing that rang through my mind throughout the whole day was CHANGE. We started out with welcoming the new faces to Impact, I was really surprised to see a whole lot of standard six-ers stepping up into Impact and I'm glad they did:) Then sad news came as The Jeff Chok announced that he will be stepping down from the Youth Ministry. I think we all can say that Jeff was an inspiration to all of us. Thanks Jeff for being a great servant-leader and for always being there when we needed you! :')
From sad news, we now move on to happy news! :D Jon gave his first sharing as the official Youth Ministry Pastor this week! Yea! And he highlighted changes that would be occuring throughout the year. One of them was the official launch of Impact 2012 - Impact's Got Talent! It would serve as an event where we can welcome our fellow unchurched friends to come and join in the fun! More importantly we would be in line with our church's goal of reaching out to the new, the young and the unchurched.
Jon also mentioned that Impact should not be a Saturday 4-7pm church thing but it should be carried out throughout our life, we should constantly try and make an impact on someone's life, no matter how small, that impact still changes lives. So let us not waste anymore time in our short lives God has given us and make an impact on other people lives like the little mosquito :) God Bless!
