Back from church camp...

Being a participant of a camp and organizing one is very very different. i'm glad i was given the chance this year be part of the main committee for the annual Creative Arts Camp(CAC). it was a priceless experience to be planning for an entire camp and at the same time serve God as well. i have to admit that it wasn't easy at all, we had to plan 4 months ahead for a 4 days camp. there were several hiccups along the way but thank God, He brought us through it all safe and sound. enough of the pre camp stage, now for the camp itself.

we invited this group of speakers from cornerstone church to come and speak to the kids about worshiping and serving God. they were a pretty radical group of young adults and i guess it was a bit uncomfortable for most of us in COS. they could be a bit more tactful with their choice of words, mainly because it was little children they were talking to after all. overall they were fantastic and the children love them. especially during the altar call night, it was a very powerful and moving experience. The main speaker, Andrew went around with several others anointing the children and praying for them. Everyone was so touched by the holy spirit that we all started crying and crying. there was no stopping the tears from flowing. i remember when i was filled with the holy spirit, it was in my primary 5 church camp, i cried uncontrollably as well. it was a really wonderful and warm feeling to be embraced by the holy spirit.

then there was the finale night where the children after months of learning to play their instrument and then coming to camp to play as a band performed for all to see. even though i'm not the one performing, i felt such great achievement for these children. they played and sang so beautifully. i have some video recordings of the altar call night and finale night, i'll try to upload them if possible on my blog.

time to pack my bag! i'm going back packing in terengganu in 5h time!
