DeborahHello Oak! Remember to set aside 10% of your monthly allowance as an offering (not tithe) yeah?
1 Peter 4:9-10
"Be quick to give a meal to the hungry, a bed to the homeless—cheerfully. Be generous with the different things God gave you, passing them around so all get in on it."
Your 10% will go far in blessing others. Don't store up for yourselves what God has blessed you with, He has blessed you so that you have a chance to bless others!

What you can do, since you all aren't exactly tithing, is you can set aside your 10%, put it in your wallet, and along the week or month, find chances to give it to needy people or charity. At the end of the month, put the remaining cash from that 10% that you didn't manage to give away into the offering bag. In this way, you also will be more aware of the needy people around us here in Singapore.
And the updates for the week (W2 March);
0. Time Out month is still on! Do come down if you're free. It's kinda nice to come down to church in the morning on weekdays when hardly anyone is around. I miss doing that, just walking around the empty building thinking about God and you guys. Oh well won't get the chance to do that anymore - church is going to be torn down.
1. This Friday (13 Mar), we'll be in church help in decorating the game stall for the next day's carnival. Basically it's just coloring the posters and stuff like that, so it's rather optional. If you're not very free or tired or whatever, then don't need to come, cause we will also be getting additional manpower from Sycamore (they are doing the stall with us). It's only going to be awhile, from 1730 - 2000 hrs, so yeah evening then we'll probably grab dinner together after we're done.
2. This Saturday (14 Mar), is the SJCK Carnival! Approximate timing would be 0830 - 1830. It's a full day thing, so please let your parents know beforehand and seek permission.
Things I need from you guys this week;
a) Do the bible reading until day 12. Yes you heard me right, day 12 again, so that other members can catch up so yeah we'll wait for them.
Okay then, that's all! See (some of) you guys on Friday!
