As “modern day prophets”, can we paint this picture of what life with God and life in the new kingdom looks like? How do we embody that and participate now? What does obedience and success in your life look like right now?

I wasn’t expecting my first blog post of the year to be about this but while reflecting on 1 Corinthians 7, I was asking myself this question. Why do we long to be married?

Learning about the Past: During my time in Cambodia, I took a journal with me to write down things that I considered important to know, places I visited, and people I met.

I learned that being open and vulnerable is not easy, but it’s the way God has created us and we need each other’s support in our highs and lows. We need community, no matter how messy it may look, there is beauty and grace in a God-centered community.

It can be hard to understand what a program called SOW “School of Worship” actually means! But it’s okay, I can share a few insights as a student and now serving as a staff this year.

“Why are you serving in Hong Kong? You should go serve somewhere else!” I come across this question a lot! I thought of writing down the “why”!

A few testimonies from the last months of semi-lockdown in Hong Kong. Serving at garbage collection points, visiting the elderly, and meeting people on the minibus.

“What do you do in Hong Kong? Do you work for a church? Do you earn a salary? Hmmm, the best way I can answer these questions is like this: I work for an international missions organization called “Youth With A Mission”. For short, we call it “YWAM” (pronounced “WHY-wham”).

Yeah, COVID isn’t going away any time soon. Reading the news and seeing titles like “COVID will be called an endemic” kind of gave me a sense of relief but at the same time, calling it something different is not actually making it any better.

I tend to write happy, interesting, or new things that I've been learning, but somehow, I felt to write about how I've dealt with disappointments. This blog post won't be too long, but I just wanted to process and express how I feel when I get disappointed.

Our organization YWAM Harbour City has been running a 6-month program called DTS (Discipleship Training School), even in the midst of the pandemic!

Anxiety can creep up on us even when we don’t notice it at all. It happens to me quite often. I’ll be emotionally doing well, I’ll be feeling calm, happy, and then suddenly, anxious thoughts can come into my mind.

These three images were made for a local outreach to Indonesian women here in Hong Kong. Feel free to use and share to friends that speak Bahasa Indonesia!

A few friends have asked me how God can use careers, gifts, and talents – this has been my personal experience!

It’s taken me a while to update a new blog post, but today I just felt like writing about something. Honestly, the thought of staffing a DTS was a bit nerve-wrecking a couple of months ago. I know there’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes, and it’s not an easy role. Dedicating your life to walk with DTS students for half year is a BIG commitment. It’s not a 9 to 6 job, it’s much more than that.

I’ve come to realize lately, the way I was “spending time” with Him had grown very superficial and rushed. It came to a point (literally a couple days ago) that I had to stop myself and reflect on what I was feeling about when I would spend time with Jesus. I needed to admit that I was in a dry season even though I’ve been serving full-time this whole year.

It’s been ONE whole year since I moved to Hong Kong and God has been teaching me incredible things in my time here. This special post is a bit longer than what I usually write! Thank you for taking time to read this blog post where I will share some testimonies, challenges, praise reports and prayer requests.

“When was the last pandemic?” The first thing I googled during the time COVID-19 was all over the news. Is it like a zombie apocalypse or what? Media already has a lot about the virus, but what has it taught me?

Can’t believe it has been 5 months since I moved to Hong Kong. It’s been a couple months of growth, facing challenges, transitioning, making Hong Kong my home. I’ll just show you my highlights of all these 5 months!

The heart of the following days was to encourage, lift up the church and share testimonies of God’s faithfulness. When the whole nation is facing shortages of electricity, water, food, many economic difficulties, it’s easy to give up.
