NS Chalet - All glory goes to God.

Finally received the photos for NS chalet and shall share with everyone the miracles God did during the chalet. It was really amazing.

The story started on wednesday of the week when Hanyang gave me a urgent call to tell me that the chalet we booked for the chalet was very very small and it would be impossible for us to host the ministry and our friends inside the chalet. At that point of time it was not so bad because we could still pin our hopes on the bbq pit which we booked together with the chalet.
There was more bad news on thrusday when we placed our order for bbq food on thursday. In our previous event, we ordered 400 bucks of food and it was just nice. This time round, we only have enough budget for 240 bucks of food. NS guys are hungry people u noe.

This bad news thing did not change when we arrived at the chalet on friday, one night before the church anniversary. The chalet assigned to our room was in one pathetic corner at the side of the chalet. There was not much lighting there and it was surrounded by other pits. It would have been impossible for us to host our event there.

Everything that could went wrong went wrong. In the night, 20 NS guys gathered in the small chalet and we prayed and prayed for God to provide for us. I explained the situation to the people, that prayed by faith that God will the best possible place for us to hold our event. After explaining the situation for the location, i explained the situation for the food where we were expecting to have insufficient food. We prayed by faith that just like how Jesus fed the 5000 with two fish and five loaves, there will be more then enough food for everyone. There was alot of faith in the room and we concluded that it has reached a stage that if it ever works out well, it really God.

Faith is faith, but we still don't have a location. hahaa.. I vividly remember rushing to the reception after the anniversary to ask for a bbq pit. It was 6:30pm and we still did not have a location for our event!! The visitors were coming into the chalet already and things were getting tight.

Guess what is the ending? haha.. obviously i wun spend so much time typing the above stuff if we had to cancel the chalet ehh. haha.. God provided. Just about 10 steps away from our chalet there was another bbq pit area. God provided for us not one, not two, not three for FOUR bbq pits!!! We needed multiple pits as it was a bbq party. If you know downtown east, sat night is like the peak bbq period and what is the possibility of 4 pits beside each other being unused by its chalet users??? The whole chalet area was packed except for that.

Not only that, God also provided for as a grass patch to play our games on. Grass patches are hard to come by in land scarce downtown east. And God provided. We played our ice breakers on the grass patch. Amazing yeah.

If that is not enough. Food was amazing. We had one whole silver tray of chicken wings left over and three unopened chicken drumlets packets in the fridge. One large silver tray of mee hoon left over also. It left us dumb founded. The food just never seem to finish.

The event was a real success. We saw a total of about 20 visitors for the event. All guys event!! People were just sitting around the bbq pits and talking about life and really got to know each other better. Let the pictures speak for themselves.


Guys do the silliest thing

The police is still looking for the murderer.


You see the legs behind? You'll never imagined the game taboo can get violent. Pillows and blanket were flying around

Haven't figured how did 20 guys squeeze into this chalet.


Starting the fire.


The ice breakers.



One of the four pits.



What can i say but thank you God.

Regards,
Jie Hui
