Lorraine's Bday Surprise

Sunday went CG at Bb's hse as it was a combine for this week.
So met up with Abrel & went CG together. He's nice to hang out with, even thou he is much much younger than me. Really wish that he will really fit into the CG and also experience God's love even more & become a radical christian.

Anyway, we went Causeway point for our lunch and parted our ways after lunch. Leaving Bb & me going to admiralty to meet Jacky & Minkuan to shop for Minkuan pressie at Bugis. On the journey, Jacky & Minkuan was playing PSP non-stop lah. Haha.. Im really lousy at the game they are playing.. Humm.. I think i'll respond better at an arcade center.

So once we reached there, we went straight to shop for Minkuan's clothes. We pass-by a few shops but no luck for a nice tee or pants for Minkuan. After a while, we pass-by 77th Street & decide to went in for a try. There are some new designs that just came in and after some trying, Minkuan get himself a long-sleeves shirt which look very nice on him. We are intending to change his style of wearing clothes. Sometime his outfit was too shabby and dun look really nice on him.. Now is the time that he got to buck-up on his self-image and dress up for a kill. LoL

In the end, i also got myself a white sleeveless hooded jacket as it really look nice. Then Bb snatch away the payment before i could pay. She wants to bless me, so i'll let her be. Its ok.. Haha.. Bcos i will pour back to her a 100-fold. Then we went to another shop that sells shoes & watches. At the same time i asked Bb to pick a slipper for herself as she doesn't have a slippe, while Jacky & me are trying to find a nice watch doe Minkuan. At the end of it, the shop lost the deal of a watch but gains a slipper deal from Bb.. So this time i snatch the opportunity to pay for Bb's slipper. Although its cheaper than what she brought for me earlier but both of us are fine anyway.

So by the time we walk out of that shop, its time for us to go for Lorraine's bday at Aloha Loyang. So we took train all the way to Pasir Ris & catch the free coach to the chalet. When we reach there, most of the ppls have arrived except a few like Kai, Pst & Raine's sec sch frens. So we had our dinner & followed by playing card games with those zone leaders there.

Then it's cut cake hour... There are so many ppl there to celebrate her 21st Bday. Her cake was more cooler than mine lah. Im the more traditional type.. Sigh..Mine is a shape of a key which represents im free & entering into adulthood. And the most funniest thing is that straight after i cut my cake, my mum asked me to pick 4 digits for her to but 4D & toto in a hearsay ways that will strike the top price. LoL.. In the end, i should be the unluckly one. Haha..

Aniwae, back to Raine's bday. We sang bday songs to her and she gave her speech to every single catagory of the frens that she invited. She was in tears when thanking her parents for bringing her up to where she is today.
Then we took catagorise group photo before the biggest surprise awaiting her. Haha.

Suddenly Tony went forward and told Lorraine to close her eyes as they have prepare a special surprise for her. So she followed and there comes Darryl holding a bouquet of roses. He came beside her and there Lorraine opens her eyes & she was really shock to she that bouquet of flowers & i think she should have guess what is coming next. Just like what you readers are thinking now. Darryl went down on his knees & took out the 1-carat++ diamond ring and proposed to her. She was too shock at the moment.. LoL.. That was a really touching moment for her as long as she could lived.

What an unforgettable Bday she could ever imagined. Life are full of love & hope. But im really beaten hands down by Darryl for the bravery to proposed infront of so many ppl around.
For me, i'll do it in a romantic way. Erm.. NO WAY im telling you all how im gonna proposed, bcos Bb sure will read my post so stay tune for My Big Day post in near future.

Be surrounded by the presence of Love..
Last but not least, Lorraine say YES to Darryl.. Hehe..
How can i missed out this part before i made a close for this post. Haha

3rd Arise & Build for our Marketplace Building

Today was another history made by City Harvesters.
Another moments which will be remembered by many that will be benefited in near future.

This coming Arise & Build, we are believing God for 22 millions that we could raised as a whole church. And i believed this time, again we will rise up to occasion to give above & beyond.

I would like to thank all those who has pledge sacrificially today & tomolo.

Today was also Elizabeth's big day..
Wanna congrats her over here & have a blissful marriage.

Bb & me went to Jurong Church at 12.30pm to attend eliz's wedding matrimony & we was late for awhile. So by the time we reach there, Pst Derek was already preaching. We went in & sitted at a corner behind the room. Everyone was attentive to wat Pst is talking abt. I also saw Minrui translating for this matrimony. Haha.. Her interpreation was kinda interesting. Haha.

Then once the word sharing was over, they exchange vows, sign contract.. Ops, its marriage covenant.. Followed by the union candles & the Holy Communion before the are announced as Mr & Mrs... Hehe.. Eliz looks gorgeous today & so do the bride.
After the ceremony, we went to have our lunch at the cafe area for the guest. We filled our stomach & went over to another table where all the dramatist sits. There were Sandy, Willy, Bernard, Shawn, Gary(MC for the ceremony), Jeff & gf. We chat for awhile and went in for the photo taking. Everything well well & smooth.
Really happy for the married couples.
Then around 2pm we make our way down to Expo for svc.

Took MRT all the way from Boonlay to Expo.. Was really far.. Haha.. Was wondering it must be very hard for Valor to travel all the way down every single week. Even for CG too.. Yet he is still as faithful as before.

When we reach Expo, we walked over to hall 1 as i need to withdraw $$$.
Then we walk back to MRT station again to buy snacks from 7-11. We then go to svc for prayer meeting before svc starts. Can really see ppls are charged up & prepared for the Building fund.. During Praise & Worship, congregation enters the presence of God easier. Then during preaching, Pst Kong talks abt "The 7 promises of perfection" & "3 things that happen to Abraham that opens the door to fulfill those promises from God".
He talks mainly abt our FAITH.. On how the 'Terror by night' will steal away our faith & so on. It was really a gd message for the congregation. At the end of the svc, many new converts & backsliders responded.

The pleding was not really the highlight of the day as i thot it was. Bcos aft the sermon, Pst told us to pledge in faith as what was spoken from God. Again everything went smoothly. We didnt really pray out loud or something like that but we did pray over this giving that many would be exprience the blessings of God and our miracle stadium in the heart of Singapore. I think maybe its bcos this is the 2nd building fund & also it is not really the actual 2nd building fund thou. For me, i've already pladge for 6 times including this current ones. Not that its nothing new, but as the age group of the church is more mature, so i believed Pst knows that we are mature enough to handle this building fund.

This time i've pledge slightly more than what i had for the previous but nothing to be compared to the amt i gave last time when i was in Hollywood. I really wish to give more or according to the statistics shown for salaried worker but it is really beyond my ability. Anyway, im not discouraged. I believed as long as it is sacrificial, it will please God. Unequal Amount, But Equal Sacrifice was our slogan for Building fund campaigns.

So after svc, we celebrated Minkuan's bday & he got himself a boxer as a present.
After that we all went to Tampines KFC for our dinner before we call it a day.
