Last night, some of the youth got together and gave Adeline Gan a birthday surprise. Her family went out for dinner with her and when they came home, she was wondering why the lights and fans were switched off and then, when she switched on the lights, she heard the snap of a camera and a flash going off and many voices going
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU ……
AGC Youth Investiture July 7, 2009
Posted by allany in Happenings.2 comments
We felt that we needed to be serious with our responsibilities and with serving God within the Youth, so we felt an investiture was very important, to pledge before God and man, our commitment to love and serve Him.
Everybody was dressed in their group colors.
Elijah – Red; Elisha – White; Moses – Green and Joshua – Black
Eu Shaun used his God given gift and played the horn for one of our songs during worship – we’d love to have you do that more, Shaun 
Uncle Allan explaining the purpose of the investiture
The pledge taking started off with the mentors, Allan, Julius and Veronica.
There was a slight hiccup cos uncle Allan used the wrong hand and so we stopped the pledge taking and resume with his right hand – this is just a simple example of how humans make mistakes and how the leaders can and will make mistakes, but the important thing is to “pick ourselves up” and with GOD’s strength, go on, press on and serve Him. Remember that when we make mistakes, we help each other by building each other up and NOT tearing each other down.
The Commanders taking their pledge.
Pang Yee Ann – Group Elijah
David Yap – Group Elisha
Winson Chai – Group Moses
Chong Su Ann – Group Joshua
Assistant Commanders
Teh Eu Gin, Choong Jee Yann, Teh Eu Sam and Calvin Ngai
Julius leading the Committee Members in their pledge taking
Khaw Keng Yearn, Andy Yong, Andrea Yong, Angie Yong, Choong Joy Teen, Khaw Keng Lik, Joseph Lum
Cheong Wai Kit and Bridget Yap – Committee Members

Investiture 2009 July 1, 2009

Hello! Happy July AGcians!
This coming week is a big week for the youth! We are having a formal event called the Investiture. An Investiture is a formal ceremony whereby leaders and committees are called forward to take pledges, proclaiming to God and everyone else that he/she will take up their given role, play the role correctly, and play it well.
We will also be launching our youth groups officially! We’re cutting a group cake together and I promise you will have a great time.
Please be in AGC at 4:00pm sharp. We’re practicing punctuality and the time police will catch you if you arent!
Because this is a formal event, all members are required to wear formal.
Group Elijah, in red.
Group Elisha, in white.
Group Moses, in green.
Group Joshua, in black.
Remember to follow your group color, and make sure your attire is strictly formal. Your group leaders will approach you if they want to do something out of the norms… like, who knows, wear hats? So wait to hear from them soon!
We are also going to sing this very, very special song. It must be new to you, so do play the song below and learn it for yourself first! Of course, don’t worry, your leaders will teach you this Saturday.
*Eventhough this version is totally out of tune, not very nice, and only starts at 0:18 seconds, try to learn it okay!
Forgetting what lies behind
Setting our hearts on the prize
Always keeping our eyes on our Lord Jesus
Running the race to win all the way to the end
Laying down every sin that would seek to hinder us
And we’ll be faithful to our calling
For You are able to keep us from falling
For in Your promise we will trust
We’ll be faithful to finish the work You began in us
We’re holding the line in Him
On the promise He gave
Always setting our hearts on things eternal
Taking the shield of faith
Holding on to His Grace
We’re giving our lives to Him who gave His own
And we’ll be faithful to our calling
For You are able to keep us from falling
For in Your promise we will trust
We’ll be faithful to finish the work You began in us
We’ll be faithful to finish the work You began in us

hello!
this week, we are having a cottage meeting at uncle allan and auntie veron’s place! (of course, their house doesn’t really resemble a boring cottage but you get what i mean right when i say cottage meeting. right?)
so basically a cottage meeting is where youth meet at a house, instead of our regular meet up at church. this month’s cottage meeting is held at uncle allan and auntie veron’s house. all the youth will meet there at 4:00pm sharp. we will have a short but great worship, a VERY SPECIAL announcement to make about the coming newly implemented make-overed superduper innovated transformed youth structure, and probably have a round or two (or 10 or 20) of *Werewolves!
so, COTTAGE meeting, 4:00PM SHARP, UNCLE ALLAN & AUNTIE VERON’S HOUSE.
Need transport, please please please please call us. With petrol rates going at 1.80/liter and having so many newbie drivers, now everyone can sit car!
* okay i know we didnt play it last week because… er… jeeyann wasn’t around. so we will play it again this week! with everyone! can you imagine then it’d be super fun because everyone will have a hard time guessing the werewolves. i’m so excited!
**if you don’t know how to play, don’t worry, come and learn this 21st century new game. those who played will tell you it’s the best game in the world and will willingly teach you.

And THROW RUBBISH TOGETHER! 
The agc.youth is having a mini spring cleaning at church this Saturday (June 13th) at 4:00pm SHARP. We will try to keep the church as neat as possible by throwing the unwanted, broken items away, and to try fixing the spoilt items (e.g. seat branches, rewrapping the song books etc.)
Remember ah, it is FOUR PM. FOUR. P. M. NOT 4:30. NOT 5:00. IT IS 4:00PM SHARP!
4:00pm!
So let us join hands and participate in this… erm… meaningful, wonderful, and er… auspicious day!
Need transport, call your leaders okay!
After the eventful cleaning, we will bergather-gather for meaningful fellowshp and who knows, we can play a round or two (or 10 or 20) of *Werewolves!
See you there!
* According to Jee Yann, Werewolves goes best when it is played with the spontaneous agc.youth! “When I play with my friends ah, not fun at all wannn!! They dont know how to close their eyes and play. Haiya… must only play with our church members.” says Jee Yann.
