Are you an Anglican??
Today was the the baptism for my nieces, at St Andrew's Cathedral. It's an Anglican church... it was my first time in an Anglican church. It is so old-school! and wow...it was errr....very Catholic mass-like lor. i was a little confused...really thot i stepped into a Catholic church...but my bro explained that lutheran and anglican were the first 2 denominations to break away from the catholic church. and well basically a lot of things still the same except no mary... no saints...blah blah. I still prefer new creation la...more lively and things are up and happening. pastor also speak so much more alive... :)
old-school lehhh...all the devotion books, bibles and hymnals stacked behind the pewsSee they also have these pretty cushion things to kneel on...people still kneel in churches lehhhI liked mine, though i must confess i didn't use it la...not very comfortable with kneeling, the ... "Ai"...aka "love"...signs of better things to come?
Joan was insistent on sitting with and my parents and not with the rest of the baptism crowd...a total of 43 at today's chinese service...amazing...! Aint she cute wearing white! She loves twirling around in it, though i think the dress makes her perspire quite a bit.
Here they are...waiting their turn...they are disruptive lor...the rest all quietly wait..these 2...embarrasment...*tsk tsk* but cute la... i is very amusedThe younger one took it as one big adventure...joan...cried bloody murder and was struggling to get away from the pastor!! Sibeh embarrassing lehhhh....all teary-eyed and red-faced...The day went by...was suppose to work...but then i slept... then i watched TV...then i chatted and now i am blogging...looks like i wouldn't get much done but i swear tonight is the night...must finish....no more time liaooooo! i will have to down more tongkat ali coffee ...
The man sent me this just a while ago...nice night scene at his place...he actually took a moment to appreciate it, take it down and even share it with me. He is still somewhat grounded and i tell you...he is the best person to teach anyone on the theory of "being present". Anyone who watched Rumour Has It...would know what "being present" means, ...just be present la...be there when you are there and not thinking of other stuff going on elsewhere or what you have to do later blah blah.
