Colour 2010


Colour 2011 from Hillsong Church on Vimeo.
I just attended a 2 day Hillsong Colour Conference held at the charming and legendary Royal Albert Hall. It is so special for me coz it's my first time in the RAH (always looking at it from the outside) and now I get to spend 2 whole days in it! And it was mind blowing and life changing to say the least. I've never been so excited about church for such a long time.

So cool to have the Colour banner hanging outside the Royal Albert Hall

View from top floor gallery, the hall waiting to be filled.

Our programme booklet

Wow look how beautiful the inside is. Apparently there is a box meant just for the Queen. Somewhere behind on second level.
We were waiting eagerly for it to start.

The opening number, "Together Forever"


Everything was done by Bobbie Houston and team with a spirit of excellence. We were treated so well for the 2 days. As it was a women's conference, the volunteers for the event were mainly guys from church. There was a "Pamper Zone" in between meal breaks where we could line up for a free manicure and hand massage. We each received a gift which was a beautiful teacup set (but of course). When the day's over, it happened to rain and the guys all dressed in smart black suits, had huge umbrellas to shelter us girls to the Tube station! I was impressed. Very impressed. hehe

Some pictures taken during the break in the Sisterhood Zone

See how Sarah's mom is enjoying her manicure :)

Anyway let me not be carried away from the main gist of the event. The speakers Holly Wagner, Priscilla Shirer and Dr. Robi all spoke and blew me away. It was just like God speaking to me delivering my rhema word. (or even rhema words?!) Wow. How awesome is that! Don't really know how to blog about it right now, I think I need to sort out the sermons and my thoughts.

Selah.

That is founder of Colour, Bobbie Houston who flew in from Sydney Australia
My fav, the beautiful Holly Wagner. She and her husband pastor a church in Beverly Hills USA.

And our parting gift- a huge rose each for all the girls. Never missing any chance to pamper us, the guys tied a nice card to it and helped to remove all the thorns!

Jubilee Weekend | Afternoon Tea Party

http://www.thediamondjubilee.org/ Today is the end of the Jubilee celebrations and how better to end it off than to have an afternoon tea party in the company of friends, while watching the celebrations on our TV.  It has been quite an emotional afternoon, in the good sense of course.  I don't think I've ever seen Queen Elizabeth on TV (and heard the national anthem God Save the Queen) more than these 3 days combined, but this Jubilee weekend has made me grew to love and admire this lady.  She is 86 and reminds me so much of my own granny, and her strength is amazing.  Imagine being sworn in as queen at the age of 26.  (I mean, what was I doing when I was 26?)  On Sunday when she and Prince Philip went onboard the Spirit of Chartwell boat to watch the River Pageant, it was cold and windy but they stood throughout the 3 hours event.  It was said she was offered some hot tea and a seat, which she both said no to.  I love my grandma but I have to say I don't think

Sleep, baby sleep

I had an idea to blog about Isabelle's sleep behaviour the other day.  Before having Isabelle, I had not the slightest idea how big the sleep topic is for a baby, and now a toddler.  I merely assumed that babies will sleep, no matter what, right?  Because they are tired right?  No, of course not.  Isabelle showed me how much she could and can fight sleep even when she is tired.  As a new mum, I did not know how to read her sleepy signs, and more often than not, she would be overtired by the time I catch her signs and by then she is cranky and crying.  Oh the tears.  From Isabelle and mummy. The early months Sleep has always been an issue for me when Isabelle was born.  She cried non stop every evening for hours on end, and we had no idea what to do with her.  Colic was the word most used on such babies, and everyone comforted us that this difficult phase would be over within 3 months.  I still remembered uttering "3 months?!" under my breath.  Not 3 weeks?

Murder Mystery Dinner Party

Two Saturdays ago we were invited to the Kim's for a themed dinner, specifically a Murder Mystery dinner party.  What is that, you might ask.  It was our first time attending such a dinner too, and so how it works is: a group of people attend a dinner party.  Each is assigned a role and will be given a script to read that night.  The aim of the party is to identify a murderer in the midst of us by the end of the night.  The hosts would work off a dinner game set (they got it off Amazon) and it comes with proper invites, setting/ scene, table name cards, scripts and even a suggested menu.  Clearly RX is an Agatha Christie fan. Two weeks beforehand, we received our invites in the postbox, telling us what roles we each have been assigned and the suggested attire (and props if necessary).  Interesting yes? The dinner was to start at 7pm and we were to have 8 people that night.  It's all very mysterious… Our invitation cards assigned K the role of Monsieur Bertrand, a f
