My my my, time has surely gone by fast as this year is quickly coming to an end!
The Final Sharing Night held last Friday was indeed a great way to wrap up everything that we have learnt in the bible studies this year. Firstly, thank you to Peter, Andy and Matthieu who poured sweat and tears (not literally) in preparing the delicious curry – in which they cooked a storm in the church kitchen from 2pm to 7pm! Secondly, it was really awesome seeing everyone participating in the skit activity, which was based on the themes that were learnt from the books of Ruth, Ecclesiastes and Esther. It was hilarious seeing how each team’s skit incorporated some sort of Barbecue event that involved singing hymns. Finally, the night concluded with a group sharing. It was extremely encouraging just to listen to how each of us has grown spiritually, what we may have learnt through the lessons, or even what we are thankful for.
Although bible studies have officially concluded for the year, do not fret; as Friday nights are still running!!!! The MCCES Christmas Celebration Night is fast approaching on Saturday the 13th of December! Starting from tonight, the next few Friday Nights (21/11, 28/11, 5/12, 12/12) will be spent in preparation for the Christmas Celebration Night. The preparation nights will start as usual at 8pm with worship, following with a group prayer, then divided into preparation for the carols instrumental, choir and also crafts. Supper will also be provided, so you do not have to worry about going home with your tummy grumbling!
I really hope to see you there tonight!
Philip.
