We had a great time at the officers' retreat held at the Mercure Johor Palm Resort. For us it was a real privilege. We are retirees and do not take it for granted to be invited to join such events. It is not automatic that retired officers are included. Our leaders are indeed very considerate and thoughtful and we are really appreciative.
It was good to meet our fellow officers and their families from East and West Malaysia, and also the Regional Officers from Myanmar, Majors Ian and Colleen Marshall. For my wife and me, this was a real bonus and a lovely holiday. The fellowship was enriching.
The theme was "Called to be Intentional." And we were exhorted to be Intentional in Holiness, Intentional in Prayer and Intentional in Mission.
From the mountain top we now descend to the valley of human needs. We seek God's wisdom and grace to 'save souls, grow saints and serve suffering humanity.'
