Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening!

Welcome to this humble blog in the internet. Have you been hanging out with God lately? If you haven't, don't feel guilty and I encourage you to do so soon :)

Guys are dominating the tag board on the right, and it's starting to feel like a 'guy-blog' with a guy also updating the entries. Maybe girls might find tagging a waste of time haha.

Do continue to pray for our Huzaen, who is still overseas and I can guess he is dying to come back to Singapore soon. He's coming back soon as do pray for his safety, well-being and most importantly, to keep running the good race.

We offer our condolences to Li Wei's family, as they start the week after Li Wei's passing away. Li Wei has gone on to a better place and her departure has been deeply felt in the NLC. Pray for God to comfort them and be with them, as it is a trying time for them.

Here are the photos:

Treasure Hunters (28th July)

The 28th was indeed something to look forward to. It was an outing to the Farm all the way at Seletar West. Not only did we get to see different types of animals up close, we also to feed them too! Right after that, we did some stream fishing before heading back exhausted from the rigors of the day.

We can safely say that the children had a good time (along with the parents and adults that followed (: ) Many thanks go out to all who made the event possible, kudos to the team as they really made it a great time.

The day started off in a foggy way. Can you spot NLC?


Ryan saying a little something...


Everyone starting to line up for the trip:


Jeremiah at the side with a water bottle.


Olivia striking a pose when she's coming off the bus.


Jasmine and her camera.


Children look on during the briefing on the animals there.


Tim gave out the food and sure he was swamped.


Christian feeding a goat (with smelly saliva) with his dad.


Belinda and a white rabbit.


Olivia and her piece of bread.


Tim Tay fishin' away.


And we end this adventure with proud moms and their children.


Youth Saturday Service (28th July)

All Saturdays are something to look forward to in NLYM. For one, we welcomed back Jiayi from his internship in the USA...and Zijing from the sunny island of Tekong!

'I' was the next letter in this semon series, and it was for: Involved in Church. Message was prepared by Vincent Lim. Will you mock and walk or be in awe and be drawn to Christ's body?

Right after service (and breakdown), the youth made their way to Marina South for dinner. We wolfed down fast food upon the carpet grass that lined the garden there. It was certainly a night to remember.

Zi Jing's back!


Jiayi and Nizam poses with some greenbacks. Additional cash from Elijah.


Elijah sticking out his tongue as Naomi takes some Ta Kae Noi.


Worship team filling 401 with songs and praise to God!


Vincent up on stage:


Nicholas adding his voice in the Hymn of Response.

Lonely boy Elliot.


Huiqi's so patriotic behind a wheel clamp sign...


The guys and gals eating on the grass.


Elliot and Jeremy in this one.


And we end off with this scene from dinner:


Sunday Service (29th July)

It was a Special Singaporean Sunday for a certain someone. NLC welcomed back Bro. Siming all the way from Mumbai! Sure everyone was elated to have him back.

I was on duty and I didn't take much photos on this Sunday. Well, most of 'em are about the little lunch we had that followed later.

Guy group photo: Fa Sheng, Ray, Wen Han and me.

Joel and Ray have some fun with Arcee.


Siming giving Vinzzz an Indian shirt. SM kinda looks like a Indian tailor.


Spot the Chippy in BK.


The youth splitting up (and trying not to block the way):


And that ends this late entry! It is my pleasure to take all of your photos, and much more can be seen here:
