Rungus Service at PCS TGP (Taman Gereja Pusat)


s been so long since I ever attend Rungus Service in my church. If I'm not mistaken th last time I attend Rungus Service is in June. Waaa, what a good relief to ever attend Rungus Service after been so long been attend SIB OG at Kuching. It feels like 'Waaa, inilah rumahku.. Inilah di mana saya membesar. Inilah dimana keluargaku dibebaskan'. Erk, not meaning that my faith is not growing in SIB OG ya. My faith do grow there and it is greatly grow. But my mind and soul still with PCS - want to sIthare all those experiences that I got from SIBOG and any other church. Ya, I do love my church so much!!

Emm.. There are a lot of changes made the way my church doing their service. Ya from time to time we need to change maa.. Hiii, I love it. Changes that I've seen/heard:

1. Worship leader take part only at the beginning of the service..
2. Sermon take over after that.
3. Another one will come out to lead the next procedure/liturgy.
4. Mixed modern & 'the late' music.
5. Back up singers.
6. Holy communion once a month.
7. Church involvement quite 'mantap'.
8. Practice every Saturday afternoon for the service.
9. etc: Can't remember well.

Me? Usually I'm serving the Lord at music. But it is so hard to accompany the church in singing hymn. Need to practice a lot may be. 3/2 2/2, 3/4, 4/4.. Arghh.. Everything possible Barns, don't worry. Because you love music..

Well, until then.

Radio Rungus Online Fixed Server



It's been so long since I actively listen to RRO (Radio Rungus Online). Yesterday I try to listen to it again using winamp but then I can hear nothing. Then I start think, what happenned to RRO? Haha, the answer is very simple. The URL that they provide few months back they didn't use it again. They fixed their URL server to one fixed server and that is http://78.159.111.125:8026. 

After I realized of what is happening, then I update my 'radio rungus online' page. Feel free to listen and view it here.

Tutorial on how to listen at Radio Rungus Online using Windows Media Player and Winamp, click here.

Well, until then.

Caroling run by PCS TGP Youth Ministry

18.12.2010 - The 3rd day i came back to Sabah. Since then it's also the 3rd time I  took part in PCS TGP Youth Ministry's caroling around Kudat. But my first carol ministry this year took part in Kuching together with SIB Olive Garden Tertiary Youth Ministry. There are a lot of different between the way SIBOG and PCS TGP Youth Ministry in celebrating caroling but it doesn't really matter as our main mission in caroling are all the same - to remind that Jesus was born 2000+ years, died on the cross and rose again on the 3rd day just to save all of us from sins. Not just that but we also carol because we want to celebrate Christmas in a joyful situation/manner/condition.

Back to the topic, I'm really happy to have the chance to celebrate PCS TGP Youth Ministry Caroling although I am 3 days late. I'm happy because I can see my church members who are not really active back then but now, they are really active in the ministry. I'm also quite surprised to see many involvement from young youth (tertiary). Some i know but some others I don't know. It is like they are the new newborn youth born from PCS. I pray that the bond which are newly formed will continue and the bond will become strong from time to time.

When I look at the other corner, the way caroling made by my church (PCS) train the youth from a lot of aspects.  For example today when we carol at Mr M's home, there are tertiary who are being told to pray for the food. Hmm, the prayer that he made a lil bit funny but it doesn't matter as he is brave enough to pray. Hmm, when i think back, I'm also like him.. Not brave enough to pray in front of everyone - I have speech problems, my words suddenly cut down, etc. I salute him for his bravery.

The incident that happen today also make me somehow worry. There are church member who are being bite/stung by centipede. Waa.. I do respect this girl - being stung 3 times by the same centipede but she didn't even tears. Thank God shes well after being rubbed with 'minyak batu'. But then it is still swelling bha.. Hehehe. .Go girl! 

Well, until then.
