Dedication Service

Finally it's over. Got up early as other half wanted to test out the presentation. This is the first time we're using Keynote, a presentation software which is part of iWork productivity suite. It runs on Mac. Will blog on that later. Now in the process of trying to burn it into a DVD.

Anyway, the first place went was Ah Ho's place for breakfast. The TRAC President, Rev Ong Hwai Teik was going to have his breakfast there after being picked from the airport.

Got there and Surprise! Surprise! Karyn was back. She had taken the night bus just so she can make it for the service! Had a quick breakfast. Pastor joined us. Then the Ngs came with the Pres and I was asked whether I wanted to follow to pick up the Bishop...so off I went. Other half had gone off to the new premise by then.

We got to there early and already there were quite a few people. This is the grand dame of the church...one of the founder members.

Some of the cards signed by friends, visitors and members. Oops! Come to think of it, I forgot to fill in one.

This is the message by the Bishop....handwriting experts say we can tell a person's personality through his writing. So what do you think?

The bulletin for the service...

The kids put up a puppet show....could see from their faces that they were really excited. My lil gal sang. And after the whole thing was over, I asked her whether it was fun. It was. She is a little shy.

After the service, we adjourned to Anggerik Restaurant for lunch. Our kids prefer to sit with their friends....the older bro with his and the little one with hers. LOL! When they were young, follow us like shadows only....

Don't have to worry about them not knowing how to take the food for themselves. In fact, they even know how to go cari extra rice when they didn't makan enough.
