:: today the twentieth ::
ha... just finished with the peer mediation workshop... was quite useful as it taught me how to build trust and stuff like that... was not that much of a waste of time after all..... i thought that it was a waste of time when i first joined and i wanted to study instead... then i decided to join and get it over with instead of letting it drag and got to get into a workshop when my o levels are coming near. found quite a number of friends both from NUS and sji.... fortunately, i managed to finish all my homework today... so can come online... haha...
went back to church of singapore( COS) yesterday and went for youth worship today. the major diff that i found in both churchs i will state.
for ORPC, i have spent my entire life in there and i have dedicated all my efforts into it. yet i was not recognised and was left out.... not that i m not used to it in that church... but also, i left the youth worship about the same time that i left the COS. but when i went back today, i found that i was being ignored again and no one spoke to me.
on the other hand, when i went back to COS yesterday, they were welcoming me with open arms and was concerned on why i did not come for service for so long. that made me feel touched as i only gave less than 20% of what i have given into ORPC and also, i left halfway in my vocation into ushering. that was very irresponsible of me as i did not hand over the "duty" smoothly and the others had to pick up the mess that i have left behind. i was not expecting any sort of welcome and even reproach if any... however, alot of ppl came to inquire about me and asked me why i have not been coming for so long... another reason i went back yesterday was because alot of ppl messaged me to go back and asked me why i was not going for so long. that made me feel very touched...
i dunno if its the ppl that are in it that are caring or is the problem with me.... what ever the case, if i was a non christian, i would definately join COS as i feel more welcomed there.... (that is if i had not been put off by the behaviour of ORPC.... heres just a point to ponder.... hope to be able to see my church change for the better.
