Bible Discovery

First of all, YFGGBP would like to thank everyone who sent up their YF logo designs. The winner of the contest will get to go for out YF camp for FREE!!!!!!!!! :)

Anyway, our program for YF today was Bible Discovery. The passage we read was John 12:20-26. And then there were 5 questions we answered in our respective age groups. The five questions are:
1. Honourable ambitions? Someone once said that we should devote our lives to things that we consider worth dying for. What is to you worth living and dying for?
2. In what way would Jesus' death be like the seed's (verses 24 and 32)
3. Why did Jesus say, "If you love your life, you will lose it; If you give it up in this world, you will be given eternal life"?
4. Consider what Jesus says about how those who follow him must live. What are the implications for us?
5. What do you need to give up today to follow Jesus?

If you didn't attend YF today, try answering these 5 questions on your own. If you have any questions, you can look for any of the advisers.

After YF, we all went downstairs for some fun and games. We played 2 new things today, namely Uno Stacko and Captain Ball.

Join our YF to learn and play with all the YFers! :)

Team Building Program

The program of our YF today was Team Building. After the worship led by our vice-president Joanna Chun, YFers were divided into 4 groups. Groups were given a map each, and on the map, the sequence of the stations they were to go to were also written.

There were altogether 4 stations. One was where the group members were asked to stand on a chair each. The chairs were arranged in a straight line and the person right in front had to throw a water balloon to the second person without looking back and the second person would throw it to the third, right until the balloon reached the end of the line.

At another station, all the members of that group were asked to form a circle, holding the hands of the people next to you. Two game-masters from inside the circle would then try to get out of the circle by crawling, jumping, or whatever method they could think of. Sern Wang tore his trousers at this station =.=

Then there was the station where two teams met and had to challenge the other team in a water scissors-paper-stone game while another group member had a piece of wood as a shield from the water for both that person itself and the other group member playing scissors-paper-stone against the other group.

The other station game was also played two groups at a time. Each group member were given a cup filled with water and the objective of the game was to keep your cup unbroken with any amount of water in it while trying to pour the opponents' water out.

In the end, Group 1 was announced the winner and they were rewarded with a very nice bottle of Sprite!

Do come to attend our YF every Sunday from 4-6 p.m. in Gereja Grace Batu Pahat :)

YF This Year...

For all of you who missed YF last week (3.1.10), the photo above is a picture of something that was given out to all the YFers present last week. It's a very nice ruler with... a PUZZLE!!! So if you're feeling bored in class, all you have to do is to take the ruler out, play with the puzzle and that will make you feel recharged so that you can pay more attention in class!!! More importantly, the puzzle has a nice logo and the words "Transforming Flame" on it.

"Transforming Flame" is not just some random phrase that sounded nice enough to be put on the YF ruler, but behind it lays a very deep and powerful meaning. What is that? Come to YF this week to find out!!! The program this week is Introduction to 2010 YF.

See you then! :)
