What has been going on with MRC?

Hello there members and readers. First and foremost, sorry for the lack of updates. Assignments, mid term examinations and sleepless nights seem to be catching up on each and every one of us. Everyone is running around mad but nevertheless, we still manage to find time to have fellowship with each other in our VAD office. Keep up the good spirit guys!





Anyways, we have just completed our this year's very nautical-themed VAD and Youth Camp, last last weekend. The theme this year is : Lead the S.H.I.P.. Pretty catchy huh? It was a blast and a success. Participants have had fun with the activities organised for them, and this year they were quite sporting. The committees also have had as much fun, although all of us lack sleep. There are the dreaded mornings of the camp where we hated getting up early, but we did. Everyone was dead tired after the camp. For me, I hit the pillows once I reached home and slept till the next morning.
Special Mention: Kudos to MARCO for not sleeping at all for the two whole nights! I do not know how he manages to do that, but he did! He was our alarm clock and our security guard for the two nights.
Special thanks to all the committees, fascilitators and helpers for their hard work before, after and during the camp. Without you all, this camp will definitely be a flop.


Picture vomit will be soon, once I get the photos ready. This is just a short update for the mean time.

Oh ya, just a short look on the upcoming programmes.

As this semester is slowly coming to an end, I hope everyone has their eyes glued onto their books for the finals.
Members, hope to see more of you at our next activity.

Good luck studying everyone. And also, visit our office if you have the time. Even it is just to say hi. :)
