Well, on that day, Yik Kuan and I had to come back all the way from Ipoh to Kampar, just to come to celebrate Christmas with my friends in Christ here. We left around 6.45pm from Ipoh, arrived at around 7.35pm. Phew~ What a long journey (Actually it just needs 45 mins drive XD)!
As we entered to CC, the ushers were passing out presents to us, whoa... I was like.."Yeah! I got another extra present!!!" First, as usual, we praised the Lord by worshipping, the songs we sang were mainly Christmas songs, we sang with our feelings and heart, to worship Jesus's birth into this world... Hallelujah~!
(The worship team...)
After the worship, we had a sketch, which the main character is Irena, who acted as a girl who has no purpose of life and being tempted by education, money, love and others, and also how Jesus came to change her life, free of charge. It was a good sketch, to actually show us how the things in this world are not as great as the love of Jesus for us, and it's FREE!!!
(Irena... You're good~!!!)
The mime was also presented on that day, and it was AWESOME!!! I never seen such performance in Church before, and it was very meaningful based on how they acted it, with their movements were full of feelings. Great job guys!!!
(The Mime team...)
Our beloved songbird, Ms. Shirley went on stage to sing us a song too! Oh, how wonderful her voice is, that she sang the words and praises to the Lord, soothe our hearts and make us feel blessed... Love you, Shirley!♥♥

The speaker for the day was Brother Jeseph, bringing his wife and cute daughter to pass on the message of Christmas to us. The message is so true, is so real that we sometimes may ignore it, may even forget it. He said, Christmas is not about Christmas tree, is not about presents, is not about an ugly fat man in a red suit (this is what he commented on the Santa Claus >.<), is not about decorations and songs all around the shopping malls and televisions, is all about JESUS CHRIST!!!
(Brother Joseph preaching during the celebration)
Jesus was born to heal us, to help us, to forgive our SINS that we've all committed 2000 years ago until now, He still forgives us, how wonderful our God is, but He seems to be forgotten by this world of His existance, of the real purpose of Christmas. Christmas is being commercialised, is being spread around just for entertainment, just for our self-desire, but not for the sake of Jesus. It is so real, that indeed, the truth is the world is starting to forget about why Jesus came into our world, came into our lives for......
His message to us, touched my heart at the very moment, telling me how important our Lord Jesus Christ is to us, to everyone in this world, He forgives us by being crucified on the cross, yet we still forget about Him. That time, I realised that, how cruel the world is, how cruel we all are to Him... Our God is so wonderful, He has done many things for us, He always hear our deepest thoughts and secrets hidden in our hearts, being by our sides when we feel alone and alienated, He cries with us, laughs with us, having fun with us, praise God that He sends His one and only son to us, Jesus Christ!!!
I am so glad and thankful that I did came to this celebration here. It gave me a wonderful and important message to me of what real Christmas is all about, and how important I am, and all the people around me to God, and He always tells us, we are not alone, remember that...
