GOL - Gracehill Orchard Lodge 5-6 Dec 2008


















This has been a very eventful and meaningful trip for me and my dad. We both got baptized in the waterfalls in the hills of Pahang ...

It was really a surprise to see my dad accepting Christianity and agreeing to getting baptized. II guess God works in his own ways. I actually accepted Christ when I was in Form 4 at school. Then I attended the Wesley Methodist Church every Sunday and I still remember when we were courting, Frank used to attend Sunday services with me. But after I got married I guess I backslided but I'm very happy and thankful to be back again! I think that my dad has changed a little eversince that eventful trip, he does not seem to be so bad tempered as he usually is. That is a good sign and I think we should see more changes as Pastor Mark (my cousin) has mentioned about. More changes in him and also myself. I really hope that I can change for the better, be a better wife, mother and daughter. Actually I felt that I have learned a little more to control my temper and I hope to learn more and grow each day ...

Pastor Mark said that sometime in Feb this year, he asked my dad if it was ok if he prayed for him and my dad said ok and they prayed together. I did not know about this until recently. At that time, he was still having his skin problems etc.

The first time we went to Livingwaters Mission Baptish Church was just for a visit during a CNY gathering for the Wong family early this year. Then it was for Kel Vin's baptism, Bernard's baptism, Bernard & Santhi's wedding and their farewell. My cousins was telling me that my dad would like to go to church every sunday if I would bring him. I was quite surprised but nevertheless we still go whenever there was some family event. We feel very comfortable and at home in this church as everyone is very friendly and warm here.

Then when I found out about this trip, I told Frank about it and he was also quite interested and so we booked Meranti Apartments and was lucky that it was available. Then I gave a call to Kathy and everything was arranged and off we went. The rest was history.

I think God has planned this event in his diary. I did not know what motivated or made us so interested to attend this trip furthermore this was some kind of a church retreat. (should be quite boring etc) Even Pastor said that all this was God's work and his plans for us.
