The Trip

Destination: Macau
Departing: 21/3/06
Departing time: 9.50am
Arrival: 29/3/06
Arrival time: 10.05pm

Macau marks my 4th mission trip but it's significant to me for a few reasons

1. First trip for SYFC's Poly Ministry

Unlike my previous trips, this will be the first time I'm travelling with so many of my peers (7 in fact) to outreach in a foreign land. It's also a rather long trip & finally, a chance for me to put my Mandarin skills to good use! It's also the first mission trip organised by the poly ministry!

2. A Land of Gamblers?

Macau is almost synonymous with gambling. Yet, I wonder is there more to this land than just gambling? Will I come back with a different perspective of its people? With different prayer concerns for the people there?

There's more but will like to share with you some of the itinery that we hope to be doing while we are over there..

A) Sit-in Counselling Sessions at Gambling Centre
How will casino affect Singapore? We are very privileged that we will get to hear some real-life stories of addicts over there... Pray that we will go with an open heart, not to judge but to hear.

B) English Programme with Uni Studs
We will be interacting with uni students who are in the English programme. Pray that we will be able to break the ice & befriend them & even share with them the dearest msg in our life..

C) Movie Night
On one of the nights, we hope to screen a movie and from there, share the truth of life! Pray for the commitee that includes me who will be planning the programme.

D) Skit at High School
The skit will be followed by some sharing as well but please pray for the actors as most are new to acting & we still have no idea how big the size of the crowd will be...could be anything from 20 to 200!

Thank You for your prayers! Keep watching this space as I might be updating while I'm there.. :)
