CALL TO GOD
Psalm 10:12-13
Time to get up, God - get moving.
The luckless think they're Godforsaken.
They wonder why the wicked scorn God
and get away with it,
Why the wicked are so cocksure
they'll never come up for audit
Psalm 50:15
And call for help when you're in trouble -
I'll help you, and you'll honour me
Psalm 55:16-17,22
I call to God;
God will help me.
At dusk, dawn, and noon I sigh
deep sighs - he hears, he rescues.
Pile your troubles on God's shoulders -
he'll carry your load, he'll help us out
Psalm 80:18-19
We will never turn our back on you;
breathe life into our lungs so we can shout your name!
God, God of the Angel Armies, come back!
Smile your blessing smile:
That will be our salvation
Psalm 91:14-16
"If you'll hold on to me for dear life," says God,
"I'll get you out of any trouble.
I'll give you the best of care
if you'll only get to know and trust me.
Call me and I'll answer, be at your side in bad times;
I'll rescue you, then throw you a party.
I'll give you a long life,
give you a long drink of salvation
Psalm 145:18-19
God's there, listening for all who pray,
for all who pray and mean it.
He does what's best for those who fear him -
hears them call out, and saves them.
Jeremiah 29:11-13
I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out - plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. "When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I'll listen. When you come looking for me, you'll find me"
Jeremiah 33:2-3
"This is God's message, the God who made earth, made it livable and lasting, known everywhere as God: Call to me and I will answer you. I'll tell you marvelous and wondrous things that you could never figure out on your own."
Hope you will find encouragement in this

FINALLY
There you have it the family members of chalet 9, from left :
Grandma Swee Kit : I call her my guru, my rabbi..all these years she has been a great friend and mentor to me. Glad she is in the FES northern office and she always answers my sos calls.
Andrew : A junior I knew in SMI. Haha he is so different from the Andrew I knew back in school. So much confidence and haha and the look wow......
Shireen : Haha this niece I tell you is the cutest. Haha she will suddenly run across the room when her phone starts ringing...obviously you know who was at the end of the line.
Grandma Annette : My mama.... haha I officially became her son. Well I'm glad to have worked with her in this camp. She's also the queen of lame jokes and mischief. Thanks to her, I've joined forces. She's also my 'home', she really made me feel fit in. She is now in my list of people who I admire.
Grandma Wan Ling : This is my first time meeting her after my camp cameron. HAha...that time, I was so taken aback because she is so gila gila person. Crazy always laughing. But this time around I also got to see the serious side of her. She was also my output. During the camp you get frustated also la...she was the one who became my shoulder to cry on.
Bi Peen : Hmm...when I first found out that he was in my family, I was like hmm how to talk to him. I don't even talk to him in CF (not much la). But in this camp, I believe God opened a window for me to see another side of him, the not so serious side. In campus, he always look so serious, I also scared.
Weng Hong : Haha.....this boy I knew since band time in SMI. I didn't know he accepted Christ, so the first time I contacted him, I didn't know it was my junior. After much talking to him, I realised he sounds like the Weng Hong I know. I asked, and he liked what's your surname, I said Chan..and he liked Aaron Chan!!!! haha...well he is so much different now. Thank God for his salvation.
Luke : Reminded of my own Camp Cameron Papa Gerry. Both also short (sorry Luke) and also so soft-spoken. Only during the 2nd half of camp, did we see the other side of Luke. Oh my goodness, he can tell a good lame joke and never laughs. And he had a hidden talent, acting. Most of all, I loved his passion for God. He really wants to see his family change.
Papa Michael : Haha this papa, is girl-crazy. Always talking about girls and how much MMS we have (Missing Michael Syndrome) . He is such a character but also a very good leader. He led the family really well and I'm glad to have met him again (we met at convention before) . Right now, he is trying to get the family to meet up again.
Day Wei : A quiet girl who sleeps a lot. If there is any rest time, she will be on the bed snoozing. She is the same age as me so it was kinda funny for her to call me uncle for the whole camp.
Jin Ann : Another junior from SMI. I've never talked to her in SMI before. I always viewed her as quiet (diam-diam ubi berisi) and of course hard working. Here I really admire her passion in seeing her campus starting a CF. I pray that the day will come when she is able to say that her campus has a CF.
Suit Lin : Haha this girl I really tabik. She loves doing the house work in the chalet. Always serving us and washing up the plates. She washed so much that we had to stop her from doing it. She striked me as a girl who viewed things differently. Anything can become poetic. I mean anything and everything.
Jen-Hann : Hmm...this boy reminds me of me. And I was drawn to him the whole camp. We talked most of the time and the more I talked, the more I see me in him. He also reminds me of Derrick. Maybe I'm drawn to people who has problems with their dads or mums.
Mama Ann Gie : The sweetest thing you ever meet. She is so responsible and very serious about her role as mama in the chalet. Very prompt with things and also very quiet. But she is also a good player in Mafia. Her face so sweet how to say she is the mafia.
Rachel : The girl who never left home. hhaha serious. She lives in camerons. So she technically left home. But she said she had a good time. She actually told me that I'm a very funny a hilarious guy. She says she never saw a guy who expresses himself so much.
Sarah : The VP was in the house. haha....She is a cool girl with a mind of her own. She has a big heart for the ministry and boy can she move. She can makes her own dance moves and she learns dance moves pretty fast.
June : And finally the girl with the teeth problem. Not much of a problem, she says she has a syndrome, she has fewer teeth than normal people. haha. This girl ah very naughty but yet nice to talk with. We have the same wavy length and sometimes she understands wat I say when I'm talking in another sense.
Tat's it the whole chalet 9 family. I miss you guys.
