For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. Romans 1:16 NIV
After a weekend up in Katoomba for KYCK, a Christian youth convention i guess you call it. Had a great time with my youth group and especially learning about doctrines all under the theme of Here I Stand from awesome speakers Sam Chan and Malcolm Gill.
i guess i'll do highlights:
1. Most memorable thing is one of the house that we hired. At first we didnt expect so many coming so we hired one 14 person house but as more and more people came we had to hire another house to accommodate all 22 of us. This was all good until on Friday when the first car load aka me went up and opened to door to this cute little cottage (from outward appearance) and discovered that it was in fact decorate like an old granny house and stunk of old people (no offence) that was all good and fine, even the pink carpet and bright pink walls. The biggest problem WAS THE PORCELAIN DOLLS staring at you in each room and the old painting of people with massive eyes staring at you. The house was also very dark and had very very white and lacy bedsheets and dark bathroom with lots of cupboards. What made it worse were the flickering lights. In the end no one stayed at that house and we crammed 22 people in a 14 person house instead and only used that house as a punishment for our games.
2. The second highlight would be meeting with over 2000 other Christian youths and being able to sing together and enjoy each others company. Did i mention that there was a mosh pit and a band there
3. No camp would be complete without intense D&M sessions and especially on the last night up until 4am.
i guess overall it was amazing to be reminded about why our God is so amazing and how we dont have to do anything to be saved but just believe. So that was my exciting weekend in short.
