Flag Day... counting $$$

yesterday was St John Flag Day... so today was the counting of the collections... i went down to HQ in the morning to meet up with my cadets who were helping out in the counting. saw quite a few ppl who i know, like chen yie who was at the table next to mine =) but we were all busy so din talk much.... steve who was kinda running around when i saw him... anyway this yr my Corps' total collection is an improvement from last year's. =)

after that i went for lunch with some of the other officers and cadets.. at golden mile food centre.. quite a wide selection of dishes there so it's worth going down once or twice to get a good bite, and at competitive prices too... not to mention the top floor where there are not just army goods, but camping equipment and even streetwear at competitive prices too. that's where i'll go to if i need any such things next time =)

went back to rest after that... cos am still nursing my asthma... got to take care..

my first day on the job

woo.. had my first day of ushering.. it was an eye-opener... and i realise that there are still a lot of things that i need to learn...

Reached church at 2pm, upon which i had my support duty... which is to prepare all the bulletins for distribution during service... it's quite an eye-opener seeing all the various inserts being put together.. some more in a definite sequence... such that the final product really looks so professionally done... it's only now when i actually see what goes on behind the scenes that i know how important this seemingly simple job is. And it's fun, doing while also chatting with my fellow ushers.. got to know a few new ppl today.. Pearlie, Enoch then also got my ex-CG members, Lingqiang and Karen.. i know i'll get to know more ppl along the way...

after that, there was one of the ICs (i later realised that she's our section IC, Sis Florence) briefed us on what we need to do.. that really helped quite a bit... after that we brought down all the bulletins... and went to do 'traffic' duty... actually that meant standing in front of the doors to stop the members from coming in before we open up the hall...

all in all, a real eye-opener into what goes on behind the scenes in a church service. i'm looking forward to my next duty.

peace out

I'm in usher!

Just got a call today... I'll be joining Usher ministry, Section 4, Team C and will start duty tomorrow! I'm sure it will be great when I start to serve in the ministry =) am sure quite excited about it =)
