CEKL99 M.A.D Project 2017

 It is our vocation to set people’s hearts ablaze, to do what the Son of God did, who came to light a fire on earth in order to set it ablaze with His love. - Frédéric Ozanam

 

Rachel from C99 really got the kids going with some super fun games

On November 26  we set out together once again to share the mad love of Jesus Christ. This M.A.D project was initiated by the batch of C99 in collaboration with the Bethel Community Centre in PJ. Together we had the opportunity to spend some quality time with the kids at Rumah Ozanam and also contribute some daily essentials.

 Funds and supplies were already collected beforehand and were promptly loaded up into the van to be delivered.

 The initial group photo taken proved to be the most awkward group photo ever produced in recent Choice history.

 
A quick emergency tutorial by Joseph on the basics of safe and effective group photo taking methodologies.

 
The result was certainly a much better overall pic. Well, if you excuse the ice-cream bike of course.



Finally ! We get to see the beautiful kids at the Rumah.

  
We started things out with a simple prayer by one of the leaders from Bethel followed by a short inspirational talk by Fr.Edwin. Pizza was served for lunch followed by some fun time, playing games and interacting with the children.

Our lovely brothers and sisters from the Bethel Community Centre. We love you guys!
Kishya's valiant attempt to kidnap recruit two of the kids to be made her personal minions had Rachel furiously scratching her head in disbelief.
Fr.Edwin was an instant hit among the kids
Kids were all smiles that day. So were we !!

We would like to thank everyone who came together to support our cause both by your humble presence and financial contributions. We would also like to extend our sincere gratitude to everyone from the Bethel Community Centre who assisted us very much with this project. We look forward to maintain our close ties and possibly collaborate together once again in the near future.

Also a very big thank you to the management of Rumah Ozanam and the wonderful children that make up this blessed home. We look forward to continue to visit and support you and your family for many more occasions to come. May God bless you all.

We also offer up praise and thanks to our Lord for allowing us to carry out our activities both safely and smoothly and we look forward for his guidance and blessings for more M.A.D projects to come.

Peace of heart – without it, no good can make us happy. With it, every trial, even the approach of death, can be borne. - Frédéric Ozanam

We opened our beautiful Saturday morning, 8th April 2017 with a Gasing hike. 22 angelic 😇😇 members joined the fun. Our CHOICE friend, Ali  on the other hand, had no choice but to come to honour the 'memorandum of understanding' that was made with the CHOICE team. Ahem.. thank you people for persistently attending  morning mass for this purpose 😂😂😁. He also came for health reasons la.. This is the story of our Ali. As he was hiking Gasing hill for the first time, he saw this... Wahlaowei... he muttered. Dia pun berkata, "Merenung masa depan, turun tak boleh, naik lagi tak boleh😜😜😜."  hahahah, jangan marah Alis  And then... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... He is still there😆😜 Sitting like a meditating Buddha. Already bertaubat d from He is also very sweet and 'helpful' "Cherry, u ok? I jaga u ar..."😂😂 " Cherry, jum duduk jap"😂😂😜😜 Alex...

It was always going to be a battle between Power Rangers vs the beast. On Sunday, April 2nd 2017 we had both movies planned and the movie tickets bought. But for some reason the beastly romance 😂😂😂 melted most our ladies hearts and naturally our gentlemen had to sacrifice the action (for lent time - amen) and tagged along. Poor Eric was one example... Had to defect to the 'other' side.. Hahahahha. Just kidding la... but seriously, t he guys were nobody was victimised here.. . We all had fun *wink* One thing is for sure... none of us turned Gay!!! Awwww the sweetest ppl in the house!  However, I must say, the most remarkable person was our loving Mama bear . Thank you for making this movie date happened!

What does CHOICE mean to you? #1

Preparing for the CHOICE weekends is truly an amazing experience. In these series of post, we interviewed some of the members to share their encounters with CHOICE that inspired them to return and to serve subsequent weekends. 1. Issues in life you struggled with before choice.  I led a routine based life, had a difficult time balancing between career and personal relationship. 2. What choice is to you? At first, it was merely for me to have a break from the hectic life I was leading. 3. How has choice change your life? Choice has taught me that I am not in this world by myself, it has made me self reflect and also has made me make some amazing friends who has now become family. 4. What is life like after choice? I am now more involved in church activities (in a way, giving back to society), break away from my routine based lifestyle, meeting new people and constantly growing spiritually and personally.
