Church retreat at Awana Genting
AFter so many years, finally i can attend my church retreat this year. Went to Genting highlands at Awana resort. This resort is build at the mid way toward the Genting highlands.This is one of the furthest place church had arranged. Good place for retreat even tho many ppl feel uncomfortable with the height and humidity of when traveling up the mountain.
But the weather there is good very cooling and dry.
However, many ppl fall sick before the camp and they still are after camp.
We depart on the 19 june and came back on 22 june. When we reached there in the evening, we had tea and briefing then went into our hotel room. This time thank God that i shared room with Sis Angeline. Not much of a prob and we get along well. The weirdest thing about this hotel is all the room don't have aircon, only fan and we had to open all the window and balcony door. hahaha....someting about this, on wed night, during dinner the weather changed and it start pouring heavily witih strong winds. For the first time for many ppl, we have to rush back to our room to close the windows ahhhhaha...irony. Thank God my room is saved. Not affected. Sis Wanting's dont' look good, the carpet and curtain are soaked.
We had free complimentary ticket to take cable cars up to Genting highlands. Been almost 20 years i went there. Of course, lots and lots of changes. Now i know why students and nieces love tat place. Angeline and me bought the day pass for the indoor theme park. Oh yes, thanks to church bro and sis who fetch us to the cable car station. without them, i think we won't have time to enjoy. For the first time, i realise Bro solomon scare of height, he looked funny.
Did catch up with an old fren and know few of his buddies. Fun peeps.
On thurs, we checked out after breakfast. It was a long journey home..... as pastor said one day up and one day down. Two days camps. sigh.... so short. We were delayed at the woodlands checkpoint, cos xiao min and another sis got held up at the queue. The whole bus was so worry. But i think most stress is still uncle norman and bro jimmy. This journy back i could sleep most of the time which is good.
The sermon for this camp was good esp the church history, pastor teo no. 3 had fanatastic pictures to keep the audience awake.....
Overall, had enjoyed except for the food. cos i have bad stomach whenever i ate the hotel buffet. So, on the 2nd night, Angelien and me went for Korean food. The Best dish of the stay.
Next year, the camp gonna moved back to Eden hotel in JB.
