10 November - The Last Bit



After the home visit, we rushed back to the resort... on the way, Pastor stopped the car by the roadside... and for the first time, I saw a traffic light in Maesod... just too bad that I didn't take a picture... haha...

We packed our stuff and Pastor came to pick us up about an hour later.. and we grabbed the opportunity to take a picture with him...

We had dinner at the church... the members cooked for us and the dishes were Arroy-Mak-Mak!! (very very delicious!!) Too bad, I got to rush off to practise the songs with the band, or else I would have ate more!! haha... And when I went down, some members were already seated there, waiting... I was anxious of cos.. quickly called Jui and Bas to practise the songs with me... Bas confirmed the songs with me again and I wanted him to transpose a song's key from A to G. He told me that he don't know how to transpose... so I did the transposing of chords for him. haha... Must teach him next year round...

After all the confirmation of the songs and chords, myself, Noon, Jui and Bas came together to pray and ask God to guide us. I doubt that they really understood what I prayed but I can sense that the Hold Spirit was working in us. After finished prayers, Noon went to take the mic and started the programme proper. I was thinking to myself... "Hey, I haven't practised the songs with you guys yet...." I nearly fainted... Oat started a song presentation for the people... and the rest of the team were not even down yet. faintz...

Then I saw grace coming... thank God man.. she is supposed to lead us into a time of games... and she led well!! She taught the people how to do the greetings of the different countries. And the people enjoyed the session! hehe...





After Grace led the session, I took over the mic and started to lead everybody into Praise and Worship. The praise songs were "We Bring A Sacrifice Of Praise, We Have A Vision, My Life Is In You, My Redeemer Lives..." and the worship songs were "..." hmm to be updated when i check out the songs I led... can't remember le... paiseh...

But I do remember one thing... God touched our hearts and people were praising and worshipping the Lord. :) I was really glad that God used me... And He healed my voice... that my voice didn't even break.. hoho... thank God for that!





During PnW, Shannen had a prophecy for the church... hmm.. can't remember what was that... need to check with her on this again. Desmond started the sharing of God's word with the people... and Chris and Betsy came up to share their testimonies... They shared very well... and I really pray that more people in the church will start committing themselves to God after hearing their stories...

The response time...




We started the service at 8pm and ended at 9.55pm. And our coach to Bangkok is leaving at 10pm... wah liew.. you can imagine the kind of madness we had when we rushed off after the service... 2 minutes taking grp photos... 5 minutes of award giving and 2 minutes of exchanging gifts and cards... haha... and as I ran out of the church to the car, I gave Bas's son a kiss... hee... he must be wondering what's happening man... And during the rushing here and there, I dropped the card that Jui gave to me.. I felt so sad lor.. but didn't dare to tell him... :(

Pastor drove us to the Bus Terminal in 5-10 minutes time and thank God that the coach was still there waiting for us... The "can't-bear-to-leave" moment is finally here... I controlled my tears.. cannot cry...cannot cry... But finally someone started the ball rolling... and she is Jasmine. She can't bear to leave the people.. and Bua started crying... before I left, I shaked Pastor's hand again. He looked at me, as if he had a lot fo things to tell me.. But he just couldn't say it as he don't really know how to speak English. Haiz... But hor, I can sense that he wanted to encourage me a lot wor... :p

After the coach left the terminal, the whole coach was so quiet.. except the fact that me and Shannen kept on talk and talk and talk... that Jasmine have to turn to us and ask us to keep our volume down... hee...

And this ended our trip at Maesod... I hope to go there again...
