A blessed time together

CGMC doctor fellowship @ 15 Clarke St. We had a wonderful time together with Dr Philip Ho leading and Dr Su sharing his very personal testimony. Deeply moved by the way God is using his life to touch others.  

Mission Fest @ CGMC

Mr Wong Young Soon, CEO of Malaysian Care delivered a sermon based on Prophet Elisha. 

Malaysian CARE has certainly gone a long way to look into the needs of the poor, marginalised and indigenous people.

Waiting for the coffee to brew while I write this blog post.  4 minutes before I press the plunger.  And coffeeeeee...

Umbrellas will no longer wander away

You can put your umbrella in this rack,  lock it and take the key with you.  Umbrellas secured for the rainy days.  

CO2 good for plants but not body

Finally invested in a CO2 system for my aquarium plants.  Plants continued to die with adequate light.  Need to experiment with the number of CO2 bubbles per minute for optimal plant growth.  

However, too much CO2 in a human body causes carbon dioxide narcosis and death.  Occurs in patients with severe COPD.

Mr How will be conducting his first class this Sunday 21st October at 3.00 pm - 4.30 pm.  Please come and join in the fun.

Christmas gift from Our Daily Bread

Looking forward to Christmas again with some new songs. It is a season of love,  giving and renewed hope.  Everything needs to be centred on Christ, the newly borned baby some 2000 years ago and who is very much alive today.
