No fellowship can be quite complete without Bro William Ting, the church's Cell Group Coordinator and my close buddy. We were really glad when he and his family turned up. The food theme for last night was "wrapped food" (as creatively suggested by Sis Chang Yi) and we were overwhelmed by so many varieties! I was impressed to find out the many hidden talents in our church!
We started off with a prayer of thanks. Then dinner. We opened the Praise and Worship with the song "How Great is our God" lead by Aaron. Reminded by the following verse, I could feel God's grace and the presence of the Holy Spirit as we sang our hearts out to the Lord!
"Where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in their midst." - Matthew 18:20
Yes, the bible quiz. To encourage unity, we purposely mixed the two groups together to form two teams. I selected the questions that were tough and easy, from the Book of Matthew. Sis Mui Foon kindly helped to be the judge.
Following the quiz we took time to share some personal experiences. It was encouraging to hear stories of love and care experienced in cell groups. I took the opportunity to invite Bro William to share on cell group ministry. I also grabbed the moment to thank Bro William, the "Ananias" in my spiritual journey. We also presented a gift to Sis Mui Foon who has helped my new cell members to build a strong foundation in topical studies since we started the new group two months ago.
My wife and I thank all present last night and thank the Lord for His rich blessings!
Now enjoy the beautiful photos from Bro William!

Wow...wrapped food from Sis Chang Yi!
Sis Chang Yi calls it "fusion food" - impressive and delicious!
Look at the 5-star variety - a gourmet fest!

Thanks for organising the combined cell. It was very very good. All glory to God!
It is good to be thankful-to be
in fellowship with cell group friends-to
practise "inclusion"and to "remember that God is always with us".
Shalom.
Thank you Bro William and Sis Chang Yi for blessing our cell group. As a new group we need your prayers and support to sustain our spiritual walk.
WOW! Nice food! I'm Missing a lot? Hmmmm...
i like wrapped food - they symbolise love being wrapped up for the "eater". And may your cell group be wrapped up by God's love. Wrapping up something also means protecting it. So may your cell group be protected by the Almighty hands from all evil.
Wrapping up something tenderly also means nurturing. May you grow by leaps and bounds.
The leaves used also add an extra fragrance to the food.
Neautiful fellowship, beautiful pictures.
