updates

Finally get to update my blog… sorry for the slow update =P

Many exciting things coming our way! Firstly, we are gonna organise an ASEAN cultural event with the University of Chile. We have 12 students in our committee. Please pray for us as the timeline is quite tight. The idea is to have a mini ASEAN exhibition. The students need to prepare booths to showcase the culture of each ASEAN country. Also they are going to have their exams soon thus we need to finish the research and stuffs by these 2 weeks. The event will be held on 5 Dec.

Next, 3 powerful pple are coming to join us in Chile next week! Looking forward to receive them. I guess i have to start packing my room and the house. Anyway our house is really pretty these days. Cos its spring thus all the flowers are blooming and our garden has quite a number of red, pink and white roses . Its a rare sight in Singapore. The streets in Santiago are beautiful too. Filled with colourful flowers, leaves and falling petals. But the bad thing is that i have an allergy thus my nose is “running” alot these days.

Also we’ve been hearing some pretty powerful testimonies from our flock as well. God is indeed the chief shepherd, working in the hearts of the people in his timing.

God also reminds me how much he cares for me when he takes care of the little details in my life.

Last Monday, i was telling God that I sowed but it didnt seem to reap any results. The first student i had started to affirm me especially what i had shared with her previously. She said that she felt that God placed me in her life to bring her back to him. I was really touched. Then the student in my next class told me that she told her mom about me! So i asked her if it was good thing… she said that she felt that i wasn’t just a teacher but i cared for her… I felt as if God was speaking to me through the 2 of them that my labor wasn’t in vain…

I’ve also developed an “unlikely” friendship with another student of mine. She is about 15 years older than me, married and has a kid. Last thursday after my lessons, she invited me for lunch. She was very generous, offered to buy me “anything” i wanted. We had a really good talk in spanish (from her life to anything under the sun) during the lunch time and today, she invited me again. The Lord meets my need for friendship =)

Then last week, all my markers ran out of ink, i wanted to re-fill them but my institute ran out of it too. I didnt have time to buy, just then one of the students in my class gave me one. Last Friday, i had a craving for chocolates before my class. One of the students came in and gave me a chocolate cake! What great timing!
