Shepherds' Retreat (6th April 2007)
This year's Shepherds' Retreat was held in Malacca from 6th July 2007 till 8th July 2007. We stayed in the Century Mahkota (behind Mahkota Parade).
I brought RJ and Mary along for this trip. We shared an apartment with Wendy, Jaclyn and Cassandra.
Thank God RJ was quite cooperative throughout the trip. When we had our sharing session, Mary stayed in the apartment with him so that he won't disturb me. He has been a good boy. We had good sharing sessions.
On 7th April (Sat), Bee Lan and Daryl came and join us around 3pm. We went out for satay celup and chendol. In the evening, took RJ for a swim with Daryl and Bee Lan. All of us went out dinner together. Bee Lan and I discover that at Jonkers Street they have a night market which is very interesting. We took them there for makan and shopping...
On 8th April (Sat), Bee Lan took us to somewhere further for breakfast, it's somewhere near Bukit Cina. After that we went to Mahkota Parade to meet Bee Chin...however, both RJ and I didn't spent much time with Bee Chin cos we need to rushed back to check out from our apartment.
For 3 short days I had quite a fruitful trip, I get to taste Malacca Chendol, Chicken Rice ball, Satay Celup, buy Gula Melaka, had a good and cheap high tea in the hotel. Most important is that I had great time of fellowship with my fellow Children workers cum brothers and sisters in Christ (nothing forgetting I get to meet my family members).
