As today was a public holiday, BEC organised a ‘Fun Day’ for the dormers, some LCDI students and other contacts. And what a blast it was! Everyone arrived at the BEC at 10am after the dorm service where the dormers were divided into four groups to study and discuss different aspects of prayer.
Preaching messages on t-shirts are effective, in that it is an unobtrusive way to share God’s word – so many people can read what is on your t-shirt without feeling pressured, however still have the opportunity to ask questions about God. There were 50 t-shirts available for people to decorate with God’s hope and Bible verses, using special fabric crayons. Everyone showed off their creative abilities, and helped each other with unique ideas. The idea was so popular in fact, we needed to race down the street to get more t-shirts! After parading our new t-shirts, a delicious lunch was shared.
We then scooted down to Olympic Stadium to enjoy volleyball, badminton, goal shooting as well as throwing balls down the steps for ‘Borng Thom’ to collect at the bottom in the midday heat! Faces were glowing all day long, as everyone had the chance to enjoy each other’s company on a social basis, as well as praising God through art and singing.
We thank and praise God for the fun we all shared today, and very much look forward to tomorrow night. We will be holding a dance at the dorm after the study instead of showing a film. This will be a brilliant opportunity for everyone to show off their traditional Khmer clothes and teach us foreigners more groovy dance moves, as a sequel to last Sunday’s boat trip!
