Had Ps Nicky's farewell today.. Thank you Jesus that everything went smoothly just that the service continued on for more than 2 hours rather then the usual one and half hour..
Finalizing the video was just an awesome feeling.. slept at 5am after watching an episode of How I Met Your Mother..hehe.. Sometimes, u just have an awesome idea in your head and u soo badly wanna implement it u just wouldnt mind spending alot of time doing it..even if it means being tired and sleeping late then getting up with dark circles.. ;)
Honestly.. today was pretty sad.. i never felt such an attachment towards a person.. felt really sad.. really really sad.. Ps Nicky.. he was indeed as sharon said "An anchor of joy, love and encouragement". I cant help but feel why didnt i realise this sooner.. i've taken this person for granted and never appreciated it until now that he's leaving us..
But also.. I am aware that God has a greater plan for him.. Pursuing his theology masters would only take him further in doing God's works. So would love to bid farewell to him with a joyful heart. =)
One and half years just flew by so fast.. i even thought i would be serving this church till the end when i graduate. Always having this support system going..can't help but to wish there was more time.. I was pretty surpriced when i choked and tears were almost in my eyes when we were all singing "Kenangan Terindah". I could tell that Ps Nicky almost in tears as well.. it was a surprice after all!! hehe!!
Then again, while we all just fellowshipping and taking photoshooting.. oh yes.. i was enjoying myself with Ray's dslr.. its such an awesome camera! learnt more about dslr from Ray today.. and i cant believe i took some pretty awesome shots myself! Owwwkay.. coming back.. while we were all just fellowshipping and photoshooting.. "Oceans will part" starting playing on the deskstop.. all of a sudden i just had a reminences of the whole place.. i saw the keyboard, the drums, the guitar.. and i thought: " we are no longer gonna jam here anymore, spending time with each other and singing God's songs.. fellowshipping.. carecells every thursday.. the pizza night we had.. our very first amazing race.. worship leading..."
We had a family here.. and i just hope we'll all stick together in Church Of Praise as well as a new family..=)
