Peer-To-Peer. The theme says it all. This night basically revolved around a time of sincere sharing and awesome testimonies by peers. It of course also involved food and healthy fellowship among all present.
The whole event took off with a great session of Praise and Worship led by Sheena, Ern Chee and the band. The band featured some new blood: Abel and Deborah, who made their drum and backup vocals debut respectively.
This was followed by a song item entitled With All of My Heart (Zoe Girl) by the female quartet: Sheena, Amanda, Ern Chee and Delia. All sounding amazing, together as a group and also in each of their solo parts.
The main session that highlighted the main theme of the night was a time of sharing and testimonies by peers, Alvin, Ernestine and David. Alvin spoke about humility and servanthood, how we should not always look at man, but towards God, while doing all things, and in the end give back all glory, honour to Him.
Ernestine shared on how everyone should always take the initiative to step out of his/her own comfort zone, and start serving the church in all possible areas. Think:" Ask not what the church can do for you, but what you can do for the church." Based on her experiences, she challenged us to take that very first step, not to sit back and wait, in order to start seeing God's miracles and blessings inundating in our lives.
David spoke about "having authority in the ministry". He emphasized on how we should posses a heart of passion for God, when it comes to serving in the ministry as well as claiming ownership over this ministry. It was a very inspiring talk about how all of us are already leaders in church, and must have that innate confidence before stepping out in authority if we desire to do great things for the Lord.
Aunty Chiew Har wrapped the session up by asking the crowd a very simple, but yet, a very in-depth question. "Can we say it for ourselves that we know God?" It's indeed very easy for all of us to be Sunday church regulars. But in the very core of our own hearts, we need to stand for ourselves, and be convinced about own relationship with God.
Even as there were different messages spoken by totally different characters, all the words spoken left a challenge to move on to greater heights in each individual’s personal life.
Traditionally, the night ended with supper, as we studious students needed it to keep us feeling rejuvenated. A hot Milo-fused-with-melted-chocolate drink as well as sugar coated biscuits. Just enough to leave us on a sugar high with a greater ability to pull an effective all nighter! Fun-bombarded night full of meaningful fellowship indeed!
