Blessed be the Name God Almighty

Song introduced in February 2009

A friend who used to be part of our worship team came back all the way from United Kingdom for the holiday. We met up and shared good times together. Just before we departed the place, he and his wife led us a time of worship and he sang us this song called 'You are'.

We were lost in the worship and the Presence of God. It was such a beautiful love song to God. So easy to sing and remember, I thought it was appropriate to introduce this song to our church this February. After all, it is supposed to be a romantic month, right?

You are by Ron Kenoly

Song introduced in January 2009

Introducing an old lively song among the youth in January 2009. We were supposed to sing this song last December but we only managed to officially bring it in this year. Well, better late than never!

Though it's very popular, it's really not an easy song to sing. And I am not talking about the musicality but the meaning of the song. Yes, Jesus is our only way and He's the only One that we could live for. Is that true for me? Is that true for you? Let's ponder on it....

Special Feature - Praise the Father, Praise the Son

I would like to introduce a song by Chris Tomlin. It's from his latest album called 'Hello Love'. I love this song. It's very hymnish.... and simple to follow. I even have a feeling of Christmas when singing this song. The words are simply beautiful. It all brings us back to core of who God is.

These sufferings, this passing tide
Under Your wings I will abide
And every enemy shall flee
You are my hope and victory

Praise the Father, praise the Son
Praise the Spirit, three in One

The name above all other names

To the valley, for my soul
Thy great descent has made me whole
Your Word my heart has welcomed home
Now peace like water ever flows

Yours is the kingdom
Yours is the power
Yours is the glory

Erica Lee's birthday celebration on 21st September 2008

Our worhip team is beginning to have new culture. We've got a volunteer from the gals to be the birthday manager to keep track of who's birthday is on and coming. I never have to the time to keep track but thanks to Phoebe Tsen loh... You did a great job of making those birthday boys and gals to be happy.

Hence, it has become a great joy for us when we could celebrate Erica's birthday at Citymall few weeks back together with her parents. It was cool and fun. Here are the photos:
