Project Love (IT'S A CARNIVAL)
Love. LOVE. love. LOve. loVE.
I sure am feeling the LOVE. Are u? We are living up to our theme ''Loving God, Loving People'' and what better way to do it then to have the fun-nest ever Project L.O.V.E! Yup, that's right! U heard me, we had the Project Love( IT'S A CARNIVAL) on just last Saturday and it was SUPERB! This project gave us a chance to love the unfortunate in a fun way! ALL PROFIT, ALL WE'VE EARNED, ALL U'VE GAVE, ALL OUR SWEATS, are going to charity. Great huh? So, enough of the talking, let's check out what happened on that fun-filled day...........................................
Sunny ain't it? God held back the rain for us the thru the whole carnival and released it right after we started clearing up. GAM GAM HO! Btw, that's the garage sale. Great stuff man. I bought 2 pretty shirts for RM4!! RM2 per shirt!!
The peeps who showed and worked diligently!
Even our senior pastor, Pstr. Tony Phang and Pstr. Christine were there checking out stuff from the garage sale! Woots!
And here's the part where everyone drools... -over watermelon? is that possible?

But u can drool over this......yummy! Julian's choco fondue. Marshmallows dipped in choco sauce!
*faints*
haha, Peter making sandwich. Using his bear hands. As Chiak Chau would quote, '' don't care, use hands! Add more flavour!''
And, for all the pretty ladies, pretty flowers!
Also, we had fish- catching! The kids' favourite. Gosh, all of their faces would be beaming with joy whenever they've caught a fish... I had a friend who came and brought her little cousin who was all grumpy and unhappy being there. But once she saw this fish-catching thing, her mood totally changed and she just wouldn't stop. Then, my cousin took her home when she thought she was satisfied, after a while, THEY CAME BACK TO THE CARNIVAL WITH THE LITTLE GIRL'S BROTHER!! hahahahha. Apparently, the little girl told her brother how much fun she had and forced my friend into bringing them there again..what they did was, they caught all the fishes in that little pool till there was none left, and they'd pour them back to catch them again!! HAHA. Jokers of the day.
***********
Lastly, something noone should've missed out on!
JENG JENG JENG JENG!!
Seeing Cmdr Gideon in his SHORT and RED shorts, haha and having water balloons burst over his head.
Didn't we tell u it was gonna be fun? hehe. Well, there'll certainly be another Project Love event on next year as we will never stop loving the peeps around us just as God has loved us.
=D
*faints*
Oh, not forgetting, Suvien's mom's best-in-Klang ICE KACANG! ( see the machine behind Julie)
And, duh, other finger foods too like, sweet corn, waffles, fish balls, nuggets, wrinkled sausages, anjing panas, sandwiches, ETC..

SEMINAR ON ABORTION IN MGS - 30/10/09
When Does Life Begin?
According to the bible, life begins at birth--when a baby draws its first breath. The bible defines life as "breath" in several significant passages, including the story of Adam's creation in Genesis 2:7, when God "breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Jewish law traditionally considers that person-hood begins at birth.
MGS greeted us with the common, high school morning starter- perhimpunan (assembly). It wasn't long enough that the teachers ushered us to the student hall for the seminar followed by a few other students who chuckled and went along with us.
"Selamat pagi Cikgu..." the girls salutated with an audibly heavy tone. Their spirits were soon lifted and brightened up as the teacher on duty introduces the topic that has been consistently shared and imparted in their humble establishment- Abortion. Ps. Gideon soon saunters in as he was welcomed with an applause.
With his usual sense of humour, the seminar was started with a joke titled The Ah Beng launched a rocket to the sun. The girls were amused. Soon, the informative slides rolled in with some statistical evidences of abortion. All eyes were glued intently as Ps. Gideon continues with some shocking facts about the causes and effects of intended or unintended pregnancies.
The hour came where the sound of almost a hall full of girls hissed in horror when some graphic images were displayed on the screen. Many found it cringe-worthy as more images were shown to present the heart breaking truth behind this injustice. While sitting in discomfort, Ps Gideon went on to advise them that boy-girl relationships shouldn't be taken lightly as it requires commitment(looking forward to marrying the significant other), loyalty, honour and respect for one another. Plus, he told them that being a parent isn't an easy task as there are many needs to meet for a household. In addition,he reminded them of their role as a student at present which is to make the best out of their academic years, be it secondary, or tertiary.
Having had faced the hard truth, Ps. Gideon concluded by encouraging them that nothing they could do can make them lose their worth in God's sight. The seminar ended and we were brought to the canteen to sink our teeth into MGS' breakfast delights- nasi lemak and bee hun goreng. After almost 3 years of hosting this seminar it really educates boys and girls alike to value life, most importantly understanding the paramount importance of honouring and respecting the opposite gender when a relationship is concerned.
Blessings
Samson
Did not he who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same one form us both within our mothers?
Job 31:15.
Yet you brought me out of the womb; you made me trust in you even at my mother's breast. From birth I was cast upon you; from my mother's womb you have been my God
Psalm 22:9-10.
Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. If you say, "But we knew nothing about this," does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay each person according to what he has done?
Proverbs 24:11-12.
