Signing Off For Now

Yes, this is the end of my blogging season for now. As you can see, some of you like Esther and the rest replied to my previous mail, and I did not reply. Sorry for this, I haven't forgotten you! Doing this blog has been arduous, and I have been putting off lots of school work for this. How do people like Esther blog everyday? Ah ger, better go study ah. And I also kinda gave a rushed reply to Johnson and Gladys. Hope this blog gets you all updated. Sorry!

I also went to the Hague and Brussels. Some other time maybezzzzzzzzzzzz zz zz zz z z zz

OPM

The overnight meeting was really great, and God showed up. We were all really touched and felt a strong breakthrough as we prayed for Holland and Delft. Wow!

OPM

We had overnight prayer meeting too, to end Jesus Week on Friday night. It was held at this warehouse because Elrich's church just got burnt down a few weeks ago. So extreme! Talk about persecution. But everybody's ok lah, no one hurt.
Me and Elrich praying for people outside the TU Delft Central Library which is by the way, a fine building by Mecanoo Architects. Elrich's my hero too!
We're wearing this (CWO!) vest because of Jesus Week in school. Instead of the usual evangelism, we ask people for prayer requests. May God bless all those we've prayed for. Some people asked to pray for school results, a girlfriend etc, and we prayed for this Iran guy's family too. We had a whole load of fun.

Evangelism in School

Janita and I also join a school evangelism team which goes around every lunchtime to the canteens to talk to people about Jesus. Going vocal with your faith really shakes you up in a positive way, as we have experienced. Over here, the culture is more free and people are open to talk about religion and stuff, so we had quite a few interesting conversations.

This causes me to reflect about our culture in Singapore. Over here, since there are so few Christians around, the on-fire Christians are really desperate for peoples' salvations. The guy in the middle here is Elrich, an industrial design student, and he does this everyday. There are no pop concerts, or high-powered family carnivals and all. It's just pure gospel. We can definitely be more direct with the gospel as it really is.

Paul says, "I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile." (Rom 1:16) I guess this is what it's about..
