[WARNING: picture overload ahead] :P


ELEVATION 2007

i'm bck from camp! it was massive! HUGE! awesome! PHENOMENAL! u get my point.. haha. we're so honoured and blessed to have Ps Michael Rowan as our speaker.. even from earlier this week, at the Leadership Summit, he preached a powerful sermon that was rhema to me. it just totally blew me off and caught me off-guard. Thank You God, for sending Your servant to speak to me. I've never met a more humble man of God. each time we applauded him, he would always re-direct and applaud Jesus instead. which simply commands my respect, like he probably did deserve an ovation, but he wouldn't take it, even that, he would give all glory to God. it is so true, that God gives grace, and exalts the humble. find out more about his ministry at michaelrowan.com and elementsingles.org.


Chris, bringing you, Barossa Arts & Convention Centre, our camp ground. the band and the stage. awesome worship!

Day1: HAHNDORF


It's a little German village, south east of Adelaide City (I think). We went there by bus, and we're toasting to, arriving there in one piece, and not hypothermic.

The German Arms Hotel, famous for their German Food. Now that's what I call sausages! YUM!

We are happy people.. SS-ing is our hobby :D

LOLLIES! Plenty of lollies! and that's what Humbugs mean too! The word humbug reminds me of you kenneth! wherever u are.. haha.. u and your "bah humbug", never knew what it meant!

Day3: Cleland Wildlife Park & Italian Food

we ate at amalfi@frome rd/rundle st. it was so so so authentic! yummy-licious. thks ian and joanne for the recommendation! now we have some place else to go besides amore and primo!!
the girls, wenhao and chunpeng went to the park during the day while we were all at school. they had a good time i see, from the pictures.. not to mention, hilarious moments too. i'll let them do the honour of telling you..
