Topic: Film and Chill 2
Date: Friday 29 January

Time: 7:30pm
Venue: 15AZ01(In front of “old” Starbucks)

“Your life is a miracle, and the creator of the universe knows you by name.”
“He’s big enough to breathe out stars, yet intricate enough to fashion together the trillions of cells that make up every facet of who you are. The God who spoke the universe into existence made you, too, and knows everything about you.”

Dear friends,

In the midst of your exams and studies I would like to invite you to our second round of “Film and Chill” session this Friday.

On top of our snacking, relaxing, sharing and praying with you, we will be showing a slightly longer talk (40:55mins) – “How Great Is Our God“. It is one part of the Passion Talk by Louie Giglio, a passionate preacher who wishes to show the love of God, though His creation, down to the smallest detail!

It is a fantastic talk. Remember to invite your friends along!

Many blessings on your studies, “Add Oil”!

Dear friends,

Worship through hymns and psalms have been in the heart of Christianity. It expresses our innermost passion, offering them as holy sacrifices to our God. The origin of each hymn contains the author’s response to encounters with God in their lives.
This Friday, we would like to some of the hymns that are particularly meaningful to us which we hope will be valuable to you all!

Have a blessed week.

Dear friends,

May I inform you of our first Friday meeting after our Welcome Party.

Chris Webb will be speaking to us on “How do I get to know God?”

Come explore with us this simple yet intriguing idea of human beings knowing God!

The wake, the call and the invitation.

The black shirt, the shorts and the fish necklace.

The light blue sky, the jog to station.

The journey, Caruso down the headset; ah the bliss…

The reflection by the baggage compartment, those chest.

The call from Amigo leading to the thought about tomorrow.

The walk in the shop and the slow cooking of Paella.
Picture the sun shinning on my skin.

Two ladies at the far side and the waiter who has no idea about the metal stand.

Double Thornton’s ice-cream 2.50 with a cone, chocolate and vanilla please!

The Chinese at the fish monger welcomes his last customers, walking away with 20pounds worth.

Pebble beach, pebbles, pebbles, throw them back to the sea. Bounce pebbles, bounce like you never did.

Hungarians on the train, a hunter he is. Something like the Enfield so he said but thinks the arrow and bow is fair!

Petro at the station, confusion. Hey mum & dad.

Let me hold the bag with just my right hand, let us take a walk back.

Who said? Are you sure? The lonely soul. I will pray, never be sad.

But wow! Sweet sweet Mr prawn. Oh, you ARE sweet like sweetcorn.

Mend the broken string? Does it matter? Nothing ever, Street fighter!

Sweat, the sweat, the WHAT in the shower?
Yes, the WHAT in the shower.

A strangely eventful day comes to the end?

Oh my, it only gets better!
The End.

The third day in Derby.
Things are slowly falling into place.
Our house locates at the west side (the good side) of Derby, Mickleover.
The place is pretty and neat, neighbour on the left is nice too.

Finally have to chance to visit the town centre &… Westfield.

Another week till the phone gets activated, so thanks to KACS for the free internet!

Been shopping around today, to get things we will need at home.

Thank God for his guidance so far.

In this house,
comes the last night.
My last wash,
my last Song.

Epsom,
you have seen my teenage age years come
and now I am gone.

Thank you,

I will miss you!
