What a great time we had on Friday at the William Booth Corps (church). First we met at the Social Hall for our Christmas Dinner and folk from Eratchippu, Gracehaven, Haven, Bukit Panjang, Bukit Batok in fact all the centres from the Western side of Singapore gathered for the combined celebration. Food, both western and eastern were available - roast lamb, roast turkey, curry chicken, fried chicken, spicy and non-spicy food all available. Desserts were plentiful.
After dinner, we assembled at the Worship centre for our programme. We sang carols accompanied by the band. Then the various centres presented items and final the drama "The Christmas Star' written by Zahrah Aloba, music by Joshua Wan. The participants comprised children and youth from the various centres. They did well.
I was asked to give a short message following the drama. I spoke in English and my wife interpreted into Chinese for the benefit of the parents of children from our various centres who do not understand English. It was a brief message on Christmas.
Christmas gives us Songs to Sing, A Star to follow, and a Saviour to save us from our sins.
