Thanks to Steve Taylor for compiling, organizing and posting all these up. Here’s the short & quick “answers” I wrote in response to the questions: How were you as an emerging community birthed? We were birthed five years ago, on April 1 2000 in my home. About 15 of us were part of the core…

Christmas Snapshots beyond BLC
This year our Christmas programs kind of focused more on going out and spend time with people we don’t normally do … and the last 2 years at least we’ve been having a close relationship with the Rumah Hope kids (partly because Rev. Augustin is a good friend of mine is also their pastor). Due…
Christmas Snapshots @ Home (one more time) 12/26
The post-Christmas Monday … was a good evening where the BLC council members and their loved ones could come to our new place for the first time! One of the council members was missing (more of having a great holiday in Hawaii) so it was less than perfect. But that’s ok. ok … Food is…
Christmas Snapshots @ The Berrys’ 12/23
Of course, our Christmas celebrations weren’t just at the church premises (i.e. the Father’s House on the 25th). We had some fun at the Berry’s residence … … having a feast .. in fact a feast of “porky” proportions! 🙂 Apart from food we sang carols under the Christmas tree with more than full stomachs….
Christmas Snapshots @ BLC 12/25
Carmen, Hoong Guit and Rachel did great to welcome us at the door around 10am yesterday. But just looking at this picture reminds me how “women” play such an important role in BLC’s story thus far … whether it’s ministries related to worship, learning, children or leadership … they have truly contributed much energy as…

Happy belated REFORMATION DAY
Originally I wanted to put this post up on the 31 October 2005, Monday. Somehow I was “disconnected”. So this is a kind of delayed post. For starters, I really liked this gift I got and placed it at my rear view mirror in my little green car. Kind of a reminder for myself of…
Break In (update!)
Thanks to all who showed concern and support in one way or another … I’ve made the necessary police reports, assessed the damage, thankfully as far as I checked nothing stolen. It’s a little humorous yesterday that the guys who came to fix the roof and ceiling came just in time before the heavy downpour….
Break In (again!)
I don’t mind the inbreaking of the kingdom of God … but it’s a pain when our premises get’s broken in for the 4th time at least in the last 5 years. so here I am waiting for the inspector to come to kae pictures and finalize the police report. Then I’ll wait for a…
Kind Words from “Another”
It’s heart warming to read these words from my friend Alwyn in his post Amazing Birthday, BLC!. Thanks .. brother – the “another” whom has shown us love in these kind words. “This is a Thank-You note to Sivin and everyone else in BLC. Thank you for the sweet Saturday worship service in celebration of…
