God has used the sermons Ps Benny shared to remind me always to be child-like in my faith and to be teachable - to always press in for more and to know that, no matter how long one has been in church or whether grown up with bible stories, His Word is always fresh. No matter how familiar His Word is, we should embrace it with a posture of excitement and of longing. I was also challenged to be a daily clean vessel for Him, and not to allow the insidious sins of gossip to dishonour Him. Post-camp, God has inspired and excited me with fresh insights and convictions each day. Even as I had committed to loving a colleague despite her being very political at work, He has honoured my obedience (I learnt that she resigned the day I returned from camp!). I felt God show me that it’s more the process of choosing to love, and as we do so, He works in mysterious ways.– Eugenia Koh

“A Community United in Love” - these words stood out for me this camp as I reflected on the relationships built with the new people I met at camp, all the little and big experiences I had, and all the bonds that were strengthened. The church community isn’t a place filled with perfect people who always get it right. It is a family filled with broken and imperfect people in need of a perfect and loving God. It’s a community where we can love and be loved authentically as we spur one another on in this journey of faith and life across generations. – Blossom Chan 22
