Carolling at another ward - 27th Dec 2007

I got a kiss from a po po at the ward. I wish her "Merry Christmas and happy new year, God bless you" with a close distance. She raised her right hand and hugged me in her shoulder. And she kissed me on my left cheek. Her lips were cold, dry and flat. She smell clean and fresh, like an angel. She sit quietly on her chair when we sing in the ward. Not much people noticed her, as she is calm and I don't see she is ill. I will never forget the kiss of thankfulness to me... a kiss of encourging to me... a kiss meant for love to me ...

Carolling at Old Folks Home 23rd Dec 2007

This is a good experience to share the love and our gifted voice - singing to the old poeple at care centre. It was really a treasure when you see the smile on their faces. They can even sing together with you ^^ They are all cute...

Christmas Eve

Thank God we have a wonderful Christmas Eve this year. It was a remarkable night as we had the opportunity to cheer up the patients and nurses at hospital with our singing. Yes, Aunty Ruth, Chee Ming, Eliz, Laura, Cloudia and I went to Northern General Hospital for a carolling on Christmas eve.

We brought dinner over for Joseph, a brother from our church, whose wife was hospitalised for physio therapy. And then we started our carolling at the ward. We brought apple amd christmas card along for the patients. As not much relatives and friends come and visit them in this Christmas Eve, I think most of them might spend time together at home. It's like Reunion dinner for Chinese New Year. Hence, wish our singing will bring joy to them...of course the source of joy - Our Lord Jesus Christ, be planted in their hearts.

Christmas isn't Christmas, til it happens in your heart.
