since the year is coming to an end in like 2 hours and 39 mins time, i thought i might as well take this time to affirm the people around me. (:



CANDACE
thanks for being a supportive armor bearer! you're my very first sheep and i believe we've been through much to build this relationship yeah? i'm glad you treat me as a friend more than just a shepherd by a title itself. i've seen you grow, from someone rather..rebellious to someone who submits to her leaders willingly.(: thanks so much for everything, really thank God you're around when i'm with newb's and visitors. Cos i can always count on you to cover up for whatever i dunno wad to reply. (?) hahas. you seriously compliment my weaknesses xD
yeah. so jiayou for 2007! we'll chiong together alright? yeah. to outreach in school, to SOW, and yes. you to find your sheeps. (:


PENGLIN
when i first got to know that you were gonna be my sheep, i was completely shocked. i was told to be be prepared for changes before restructuring changes were announced, but the thought that you would become my sheep never crossed my mind. hahas. so you must be honoured to have me as your shepherd, yes? (:
continue to jiayou for God! you can do it de. remember your end jan goal? your sheeps? (: you can do it as long as you trust God and work for it. God's kingdom always comes first, its always a matter of how we priortise our time. so yep, dont give up! im encouraged by the extents of what you do to bring ppl to know God.
really hope we'll build this relationship deeper yeah? really wanna know you much better and deeper, and i'm just a phone call away. so dont hesitate to call me or talk to me alright?(:


CHARLENE
