"I heart all of them."

Time really flies. Sometimes, how I wish I could turn back time, when Kenny was still leading the youth, when I was still the young little sister in the youth, when we could spend time and hang out with each other.. But now, I’m no longer the young little sister, and Kenny’s no longer involved in the youth ministry. He just ended his bachelor life in this morning too! I feel so happy for him. But at the same time..

I feel like crying.

So many former youths attended his wedding. From Kenny himself, Alvin, Albert, David.. to Kam Wah, Hoong Yee, Han Leong.. I really miss the time when I first joined the youth with Dorcas, when I was the youngest after Julien, how they took care of me, how they fetched me here and there, how I called them ko ko and je je..

I cherish all the moments that I had with and in the youth. From Kenny to Albert, then Alvin, then Kam Wah, then Pang Pang, then Uncle Phua, then Simon, then Uncle Peter, then Elaine, then Lay Yean now, with Alvin back to us as well. From a small group of friend’s friend, non-Christians, which was easy come easy go, until now a growing youth. From a so called Klbcc youth, until now with our own name, logo and t-shirt, the To2ugh youth.. The youth almost fell off several times too, but thanks to the awesome God who’ve always been faithful to us, To2ugh survived 8 years, without any youth pastors or leaders watching over us.

Come to think of it, I feel so blessed to have them part of my life. They might never know how much they impacted me, but I always will, especially Kenny. I thank God for him. I thank God for each and everyone of them. I thank God that I joined the youth when I was 11. I thank God for giving me the privilege to serve in the youth ministry now.

I love You God, and what You’ve given to me. I love my youth.
