who would ever guess what started out as a fellowship cg for s42 on 12 October at Plaza Singapura Kopitiam, became the start of a great journey ahead? the past one month has been a hectic one for s42 and w393 as we set ourselves ready to embrace the incoming secondary school students from Indonesia.

we have never done it before. we have never thought about it before. yes, this is the birth of something new, the beginning of greater things to come, all of us are united to set our hearts to do the impossible, to mark history on 9 November 2008. what we failed to do in June when we were supposed to embrace the incoming students for the language school, we never wanted to repeat it again. the preparation was a long one, with Menny, Albert Arron, Brian and Ivonne brainstorming the whole programmes for the day; Eveline, Andre Jusuf, Timothy, Iva, Nico, Samuel Rocky, Stella and many others who kept inviting the new friends to come. from the ice-breakers, groupings, games, venues, clues, props for games, prizes, briefings, debriefs, facilitators' guidebook, game masters' guidebook, team guidebook, maps, every little detail were taken care of. well, it was not easy, i must say, because it was our first time, but we learned many things from this process.

what started out as a small discussion .... became the resounding success of our first ever mass outreach - Central d'Explorer, reaching to 60 happy souls - 1 Overall Supervisor, 6 Group Leaders, 3 Assistant Leaders, 4 Members, 8 Game Masters and an incredible total of 38 new friends.

what we set our hearts to do, we can surely accomplish it. yes, we can. (hehehe..)

the morning was a gloomy and dark one, pouring with rain till afternoon. we were worried but we prayed and kept believing that "when we have done our best, God will do the rest for us". the rain stopped at 130pm, it was our exact meeting time. God surely did wonders for us.

the day started with a briefing by Andre, and promptly we divided the people into 6 teams, comprising of 6-9 members in each group. we led the groups to self-introduction and ice-breakers, followed by creating a team name and team cheers for ourselves, all revolving around the theme of Superheros. there were team names like Kungfu Panda, Hancock, Fantastic 8, etc.


at 230pm, we left the meeting point and journeyed to the various places - Raffles Statue/Asian Civilizations Museum, Merlion Park, Esplanade Rooftop and Clark Quay. It was a great bunch of fun as we led the freshmen around, introducing them to the tourist attractions in Singapore along the way. We even got ourselves a treat of free Conello Ice Cream right in front of the Museum. The weather was warm, the journey was long, but everyone enjoyed each other's company, made lots of new friends and had much fun exploring the tiny Singapore island for the first time. The games were packed with fun and many challenges as we tried to outdo each other.

God has surely done His part in bringing so many of us together. and we truly want to thank God for the great weather, the great fun and the great impact that we can bring to the people. This event will also not be successful without the support of our ZS ko Yohandi, many of the leaders and members who prayed and supported us, and especially to every single individual from s42 and w393. thank you for all the sweat, the effort, the energy, the money, the blood, the time, the sacrifice you put in. This event is just the start of a great journey ahead, the process after is what makes it all count. s42, w393 and the rest of the YA zone, let's rise up to the occassion, the harvest is always plenty but the laborers are few, let's together rise and work for the harvest. and let's end the year with great reapings. God bless!
