Going on this mission trip was not easy at all. After overcoming the obstacle of my mum, just hours before I left, had a huge quarrel with weijie, wisdom tooth was aching through out the trip, fell sick, had my period,was rushing out my presentation report for my manager, i was stretched to my limit. In fact I din even sleep at all the night before I left.

But the one revelation that held me through this period came to pass --->
Brokenness comes before the release of the anointing.

(In the olden days, perfume came in bottles that had to be broken first in order for the oil to flow out.)

On the day of arrival,

hahaha this is us in the boys room (they stayed in church) preparing sermon in the afternoon.


I had my first cellgroup meeting that evening where I preached for the first time in a cg setting.

Presence of God was very very strong. During the altar call, everyone in the room responded, people were crying as I was laying hands and I just felt Him saying to me that "its all for a time like this" and everything else just felt so worthwhile. The feeling of its more blessed to give than to receive became so real. ^.^

Heres the pic of the cg!
The cellgroup leaders are only 16 and 19 years old but so very anointed! Actually their cellgroup size is around 20, but because its the term break, many are away on holiday!

Anyway, after the meeting, together with the translator they took us out for dinner and it was a great fellowship as we shared and exchanged our experiences! Thank God for the holy spirit led answers as they were already throwing questions during dinner.


Had approx 3 hours of sleep and then it was back to church for morning prayer meeting!
