48 years old … wow! that’s quite a journey as a nation. Not too young and not too old huh? I’m having a fresh look at Our national symbols, … and Our very special Negaraku … and The Constitution Nothing fancy … just the basics .. for now.

I’ll be Back!
The main reason for my low blog activity is because of my participation in this important convention in my denomination (Lutheran church of Malaysia & Singapore) this past weekeend. I wanted to resume last night … but I feel alseep. You can imagine how exhausted I am. 🙂
Transition
Guess who’s the new Bishop of the Lutheran Church of Malaysia? It’s a 4 year term … May the Lord bless him and guide him …. and for the rest of us .. we need the exact same thing too!
Make the Emergent Founder Bishop!
what lies ahead for us as a denomination? how will the election go? who will be the new Bishop? how shall we play our part – in voicing as well as in voting our concerns. This is an important convention for us for it will mark our entry into a new phase of the corporate…
Random Thoughts after coffee

Random Thoughts after Quite a ride
perhaps the lighting in this photo is better and more natural – with a different kind of look and posture (more Artsy?). I enjoy being surrounded by my own kids and on special import (trying to be more fatherly?). Just came back from an interesting camp with Hope EFC church … in Seremban. It was…
The Kits Near the Lake
This is a “nice one” (in May Chin’s words) after the wedding of Kevin and Olivia (that’s why we are all dressed up even with my robes and latin american multi-colour stole! *grin*)… It’s pretty rare for us to get a “full” family photo nowadays … so this latest one is precious. We got some…
Evening Fun!
This week has been quite a roller coaster week for me (thus the Latin prayers and sporadic blogging).. and it’s still not over yet (when is it ever? *grin*). But in the midst of all this or I think before the “ride” started we captured a fun evening together as a family. There you see…
