Heeeeeeello All Pebbles!
Had a rockin' good time? Well, it sure has been a busy period for lots of people and I am happy to make an entry (like the old times) on the past weekend. School's gonna start soon and hope you guys/gals have done your work!
NLYM Christmas Party 2007The Bridge was a venue of festive cheer as fellow youth came to celebrate Christmas in fellowship...and keeping the real meaning behind this holiday in mind. Our very own PIT guaranteed he couldn't give us gifts that would satisfy all of us (like money), and preached on the true significance of Jesus. Are we ready to commit to Him for life?
Pre-Service StuffRaimy the undercover cop...looks suspicious to Naomi.

Angela lovingly reads a story to a very troubled Ruth...

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!

Watch out for Raimy the Tough Guy:

Vincent preaches to the youth:

Jeremy's video followed, and the youth were treated to a dose of hilarity and randomness...the trademarks of Last Minute? Productions. The crowd looks on before Jeremy's video jumps out of the screen!
Gift ExchangeRight after that, we had a wacky gift exchange led by Ruth Soh. One can guess all of us would remember quite well that 'Mary' and 'Joseph' were together most of the time. Here's Ruth preparing to read the story of Jesus' birth, as Zi Jing scrambles for space:

Gifts and happy people!

Picture Panic!!!And of course, Singaporeans are food lovers and we were treated to catered food specially prepared for us. With stomachs full and spirits up, that definitely provided an ideal equation for fun...and photo taking!
Happy Gals:

Also, it is strongly suggested to view the albums taken by other people, as the shots were quite good too! Unfortunately I can't give the public link, as it is only available to the user him/herself.
So...if you'd like to share your own x'mas pictures, do give me the URLs and I can put them up here for the rest w/o Facebook to see it.
Sunday Service (23rd Dec 2007)The main sanctuary opened its doors to the congregation for NLC's Combined Service. Christmas was fast approaching, and people gathered to hear the message of the day. Rev Choo shared with us the great importance of Jesus to our lives, with a sermon titled 'Jesus in a Manger is the Saviour of the Human Race'.

Christmas LuncheonNLC is well-known to love food, and this time was no different. The congregation was heartily treated to heaps of food, and spent the hot Sunday afternoon under the shade in fellowship and feasting.

ECP OutingDon't have a lot of pics for this one, as I came late partly due to missing my stop etc. Anyway, Nathan organized the long-awaited outing to ECP, and from what I heard it was an enjoyable time. Even as the rain came down, the guys/gals sat in McDonald's sitting the rain away...
