.The Aspirers is 25 years old!
.
Over the years, many young people have come ... and gone (grown old, actually) and this is the 4th generation of youths in Agape. God has been good and blessed us with talented young people.
.The Anniversary, a 3-hour event which was celebrated 2 days ago, was mostly organised by youths ages 13-17. The place was decorated according to their tribal theme. Aaron and Joel Chong were the Emcees for the event and they did a fantastic job. Pastor Ben preached a short and meaningful message.
.
Worship was a blast, though us "slightly older" folks found it a little too loud. After that, we were told to break up into groups according to the animal picture of the small sticker in the gift pack we received at the entrance. There were a few games played throughout the event and I'm proud to say that my team, the Owls, won. :)

The Tribal Dance
.The drama team, headed by Jenny Woon, did a skit on "Lonely". This simple skit tells us how lonely we can feel, even in the company of friends and how we can bridge the gap and reach out to others.

There were two performances by the Aspirers. The first one, "Watch the Lamb" was a mime. This mime got the runners-up position when it was performed a few weeks ago for one of the Aspirers' programmes called "Take the Stage" where a few formed groups to perform and compete.

.The Js were Champion. I take my hat off this group and I think they REALLY deserved to win this competition because they practised terribly hard for months. Jeremy Tay and Joel Chong learned to play the drums and organ respectively just for this performance. Prior to that, they didn't know nuts about music. Jian, too, was singing solo for the first time - and he's not even in the choir! Jonathan and Joel Tay play the guitar for cell.

The Food was simply yummy. Nothing extravagant, but very delicious!

On the overall basis, the whole event went surprisingly (Szet Anne's words) well and there were no hiccups at all (at least none that I could tell).

Aspirers, keep up the good work! You guys rock!

Dear Aunty Rachel,
Thank you for the awesome review. The pictures are great by the way.
Thank you also for all your support and for being there at the event.
Cheers
Chaco, noticed I wrote that this event was "mostly" oranised by the youths ags 13-17? That's because I heard that YOU were involved too!!! :) Great job done!
jus one correction:
youths are aged 13 to 21. =)
That's the age bracket.
Anne, I know that the youths are ages 13-21 (or older) but if you read properly, I wrote that those "organising" it was mostly ages 13-17 and the reason why I wrote "mostly" is because one person is in his 20s.
hahah okok. although actually...
4 org comm mbrs are above 17. There were 4 others tat are college student age. =D (ann and kenny not included)
btw, can i have your pics?
