Behind the Scenes at CYD: Publicity & Event Space

There’s been a lot of behind the scenes work; planning out decorations around the compound to make it look more festive and welcoming, and inviting people to come and experience what God has in store for them through social media. It has been fulfilling as I really enjoy using my creativity muscles. It has also made me realise how much thought and effort goes into every single detail, to make people feel special and welcome. I have learned how the small things that we do can actually help people experience God. My hope for those attending is that they are open to what God wants to reveal to them. He is waiting to welcome you back home and into His arms. See you at CYD!  – Melissa Lee, 25 (left)

I’m preparing the overall decorations and layout of the outdoor spaces used for CYD and designing collateral used for the event. My main mission is to create a festive and light environment, for people to rest and feel welcomed in this place of God’s embrace. So far, it’s been exciting to see how God has inspired the publicity and decorations team to move with Him, especially in creating an inviting space for this event. I hope all will come to feel welcomed and at home in this place and know that they are infinitely loved and known by a God who has created each one of them!

The One Thing Necessary: 5th Sunday of Lent

‘Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But, if it dies, it produces many seeds.’ (John 12:24) In this Sunday’s Gospel, we’re reminded of the reality of death. At first glance, we may be quick to think of the physical and natural aspect of death. Yet, the call of Christ also entails dying to self – surrendering the desires, the habits and lifestyles that prevent us from following and loving Him.

The One Thing Necessary: 4th Sunday of Lent

What’s wrong with the world? As we scroll through the headlines of wars and crimes happening today, this question may surface in our thoughts. It has also been pondered throughout human history, for the darkness in the world is not something unique to our time.

The One Thing Necessary: 3rd Sunday of Lent

If Jesus were to enter our churches today, what will He find? He would not find any cattle, sheep or doves, like in today’s gospel. But will He find our hearts noisy and distracted with our worldly concerns and thoughts?
