Thus far

Blogging from the train because there simply isn't time to do it at home! Yes the last one and a half weeks have been busy, with school and church.

I've already sort of talked about the first week of school in a previous post, but I forgot to include some pics!

And this was the first meal in school, fish soup at the science canteen.
A total of $2.20!

Grace and I took this to send to Siyi. It's our first pic in years!
I think the wind really messed up my hair...
Yup new matric card!
I love that we get to keep our matric number though.
In other news, Phyllis has entered Trackers and we attended the inauguration ceremony last Thursday. Great stuff ahead, and I'm super excited to see God working in the lives of the youth!


Felt like a mama that day
Some of my YMLC group members :) 
Such musically talented people!

And... this happened on Sunday.

Yes I spoke at service for the very first time! It was ChrysalisYM's 13th anniversary and I must say that the whole process was very nerve-wrecking. It truly is a task wayyyyy bigger than me, and I'm glad for the opportunity to rely on God for wisdom. I have Him to thank for the message He placed in my heart, for the ideas and examples, for the scripture and for helping me find the peace and confidence needed. Phewwwwww it's over!

And I also am grateful for the people who helped me in so many ways. Gabriel who helped me with improving my drafts and delivery, Alex who attended both services although she didn't have to, Byron & Andrea for the encouragement, family and friends who prayed with and for me :) 

Decked out in a formal dress and blazer haha
OHHHH and the world is soooo small. Rev Dr Kang visited our church with his wife on Sunday and his wife turned out to be Mrs Kang, my GP teacher in JC. I was super surprised. So they were in the congregation, which was pretty intimidating.

In any case, glad for the experience and that it's over! Praise God! :)

And happy birthday ChrysalisYM! I love you so much!
