Uncle Lim's Farm




Edmund.. =) clearly enjoyin himself..




da House porch...




The vast land filled with greenery.



Time passes by so fast when we are havin fun...
its time to pack up.... =)



But before going home, we stopped by Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary.... (i even gt 2 ride an elephant 4 free, courtesy of Dylan)


Some of us went to feed the elephants, while... sum of us opted 2 feed themselves... lolz..

After spending and learning enough ... abt elephants,... we were bck on the road and on the way home. The Karak highway terrain was pretty challenging as it is built on a mountainous region requiring drivers 2 be extremely cautious.

Upon reaching the Genting Sempah rest stop... we had our lunch in MCD...



We missed the lunch hour promotion.... =.="" swtz... bt when ur stomach is growling, it is sure hard to resist the temptation of food... especially.... burgers... prefer Burger King... bt tiz'll do..

Our winner 4 Juaramakanbanyakbanyak went 2 Shaun Yap after succesfully eating...

1 Large Spicy Chicken Mcdeluxe
1 Large Fries
2 Large Coke (after refilling)
26 Chicken Mcnuggets
* 26 nt the actual amount coz some were taxed by Tim and Moses... lolz...

.... after filling our stomachs 2 da brim... its tyme 4 a long journey home... =)

zzzzZZZZZzzzzZZZZZzzzzZZZ

It was an enjoyable retreat =) Special thanks to all the YP Committee members that made this Retreat a memorable puzzle of our life's picture. Thank GOD for granting us a safe and pleasant journey, and may we all grow closer to him each and every day of our life... =)

-THE END-

Fishing adventure!!

"Give a Man a Fish, Feed Him For a Day. Teach a Man to Fish, Feed Him For a Lifetime"

Fishing
meaning 1:"catching fish"
meaning 2: "sleeping when u r suppose to pay attention", " Act of dosing off".

erm... when i mean fishing... tiz tyme i really mean fishing... "catching fish"... not "sleeping when u r suppose to pay attention".

Itz Sunday... after church, Soo Aun kor, took us ( us= Jian, Tim, Sharan, Kanan, Kalai, Kumar and I) 4 a fishing adventure... honestly.. its da 1st tyme i realli fished... The 1st pond was dried up.... no sign of any fish... we abandoned the pond and rushed 2 find a better fishing site.

We were suppose 2 be fishing but... look wher and what we( we= Jian, Tim and I) were doin ...


Tim, enjoyin his maggin cup....
( Buy 1 Maggi Cup and Milo for oni RM3.99, only at Esso and Mobil =) Hahaz

WARNING: JAWS III


Jian : I see it.., I see it...
Tim : Where?!? Where?!!


Waiting Patiently.......

This adventure has thought us how we must be more patient in life.... Like fishing,... the challenges in life to attain our GOALS must be faced with utmost patience, perseverance and most importantly unceasing prayer. Never forget that God is always there when you need Him and nothing is impossible for Him. ( For nothing is impossible with God. (Luke 1:37)

I never knew how hard it was to fish till this day.... =.="' sigh..

At the end of the day.... Hav a look at our catch!!


erm... if u can't see them... they are the ones circled in RED. lolz... fishes courtesy of Jian and Tim =).



Although our catch for today... may be... small... erm.. i mean we din catch any eat-able fishes at all... hahaz... bt da biggest catch of the day lies in the lesson that patience is important for all of us... All of us must strive 2 b more patient in our daily dealings..=)

THE END

oops.b4 i 4gt..

ps: Thank you Soo Aun kor for your time and effort. We really did enjoy the trip out =)

DMSJ 2009

DMSJ Fellowship Camp 2009

The 10th DMSJ Bible Quiz

I came to this camp not knowing what to expect...... Not knowing who i'll meet. Only knowing that i may most probably be alone... lolz.... Guess wht.... =)....." I was wrong"....
.....
....
...
..
.
2.30pm Sat 30/05/09 Arrival ... Yahoo!!
"Wow.... so many people!" the 1st thing that went through my mind as i enter the gates of our campsite, Golden Sands Port Dickson... Christians from 4 different locations across Malaysia gather together in one name....as God's people, Christians, Brothers and sisters in Christ.. The participating churches were, Daya Gospel Centre ( DAGC), Melacca Gospel Hall ( MGC), Shah Alam Gospel Centre and last bt not least Johor Bahru Gospel Centre (JBGC) which we represented. An atmosphere of friendliness and joy filled the air as we started getting 2 know each other.. =) 2 bd my name tag displayed Yeh Han ... instead of da preferred Ivan Lee...( Got tht fixed on da 2nd day with marker pens) =)

After a speedy check in we headed off to the main hall for a short briefing haha.. Uncle Dexter in all his vibrance made us laugh our socks off..( Nt tht we were wearing any) Da scorching heat failed in its conquest to dampen our over-energetic spirits. Amazing race was cool 2 da max... we had so many interesting tasks ... like building sand castles, finding marbles thru flour, transporting water through .. guess.....( our mouths) Joel wasted no tyme in taking off his T shirt and squeezing water 2 quicken da process of filling up the hole surfaced bottle... =) At night is the quiz we hav all been anticipating... DMSJ Bible Quiz 2009.... as we all know... in evry comp.... there can only be one victor,.... DAGC.... after nail-bitting fight to the very end gained victory and was crowned DMSJ 2009 champs....

AIKS!!! looks like i am writing 2 much....

SUN 31/05/09
After the baptism service by the sea, we had the breaking of bread service.... it was then followed by the photo session..( very efficiently carried out), and Tune in workshops . 3 diff workshops were offered...( "CSI", "Are you smarter than a fifth grader" and "Discovery")
"CSI" was a detailed study on the book of Philemon.
"......fifth grader" - brief outline of the bible.
"Discovery"- The 1 i chose was about 7 solid reasons why the bible is truth.. nothing but the truth... (the bible is GOD's word, nvr 4gt tht)


MON 01/06/09
The main high-light of this day is the CAMP SPECIAL and fun nite......( it is indeed fantastically obvious tonnes and tonnes of hard work and preparation were put in to make the night a night to remember.... lol..lol..lol Main star of the night was Uncle Dexter ( King kalahkalahtakmaumati)
We painted our faces in many diff colours and designs to make our very own tribal costumes... ( i was in da tribe of Zebulun.)The uncles and aunties are just so sporting. =) Knowing it is the last nite of the camp... we quickly gathered after supper for a quick game of bkb.... (btw its Pin Siangs BDay!!! Happy bday 2 him)

TUE 02/06/09
Haiz.... haiz....the last day of the camp.... haiz..... sadness filled our hearts as we realized that the time for us to go back to our various homes has finally came...... We hav grown sooo close to each other in such a short period of tyme.... leaving shall b hard... bt as we all know... even good things will come to and end...( except our eternity with Jesus Christ our saviour and Lord) even though we had soo much fun... we must nvr forget our main reason 4 coming 2 tiz camp.... we must strive for perfection.. to be more like our Saviour and Lord, Jesus Christ.

My msg 2 all beloved campers
Broz and Sisz in Christ.... This camp may have ended...
But all of you will alwiz be in my heart =)
Hope 2 c all of you soon ya.... And to those who are still not sure about their salvation, ask , seek and find. Open your hearts and let Jesus be your saviour today. He is the only way... I want to see all of you in heaven, for life on earth is temporary but eternity lasts forever...

In Christ,

Ivan Lee....

The Beautiful Beach =)



A boat glimmering in the sea





Yes, Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,
And a light unto my path.

When I feel afraid,
Think I've lost my way,
Still You're there right beside me,
And nothing will I fear,
As long as You are near,
Please be near me to the end,

I will not forget,
Your love for me, and yet,
My heart is forever wandering,
Jesus be my Guide,
And hold me to Your side,
And I will love You to the end.

Yes, I will love you to the end Lord Jesus Christ.....
Keep us close to Thee, for Thy word is a lamp unto our feet, and a light unto our path.
