( something super random )

A Spanish Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.'House' for instance, is feminine: 'la casa.''Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.'A student asked, 'What gender is 'computer'?'

Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether computer' should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:1 No one but their creator understands their internal logic ;2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.(THIS GETS BETTER!) :P

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ('el computador'), because:1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

The women won. :D

( Some General Prayer Items )

Dear YAMMers,

Not all of you might know, but Cyril Lim has left for the Republic of China. Or Taiwan rather. This will be his last major exercise before his graduation to become a full-fledged specialist in Our Army. Yup, just thought that it'd be good for us to continue keeping him in prayer for as he will be there for about three weeks or so, roughly the same length of time as Justin, who's still in Australia now. What a globalised SAF! Haha.

It'd be good if we could constantly keep each other updated on such happenings for each and every YA, so that we won't leave anyone out! =)

Also, do pray for our leaders, especially the Servants Team people, as we will be meeting Pastor Josh and Chong Ping on the 8th of November to deliberate the YAM's programme for 2009. This will be a time where we really hope to re-orientate our direction and focus of the ministry. Things have been rather messy or hit-and-run lately, but we earnestly want to seek God's help and wisdom in all of this. Yup, so do pray that we'd be able to have a fruitful and productive "retreat" cum meeting on that day.

Thanks guys!

Daryl

( 24/7 prayer chain )

Hi. WE NEED YOUR HELP.

For the youth camp (10-13 Dec), the camp prayer subcomm is organising a 24/7 prayer chain that will last 2 weeks, starting from 12am 26 Nov, right up til 12am 10 Dec. The original plan was to have people praying in hourly shifts only 18 hours a day from 6am-12midnight because we didn't want to encourage the youth to have weird sleeping patterns. But then Cheryl suggested getting the Young Adults to help fill in the slots from 12-6am, and so I'm testing the ground to see whether you guys are willing to participate in this. Are you?

The rationale behind 24/7 prayer is that we want to constantly remind ourselves that we are totally dependent on God for this camp. The youth and their friends are going to hear the gospel being shared to them during the camp, and so we're going to need intercession for their salvation and also for a lot of other things. We need to pray for: the non-believing friends, the regular youths themselves, the speaker, the messages, the discussion time, the activities/programs, and the beloved camp committee. You see why it's 24/7 for 2 weeks?

So if anyone at all is willing to work and pray alongside us in this chain, please contact me at 91478920. This isn't like an official YA thing, but just a personal appeal for people to help. Thanks.

( CBSI Break )

Hello everyone!

We will all be doing Lesson 8 of CBSI Daniel for YAM tomorrow, so it's business-as-usual.

However, there will be a break in CBSI studies the following Sunday (12 October), as Pastor Josh will be out of town. There won't be any fellowship or other programme planned, as it's kinda last minute to put something together and inform everyone at such short notice. So no YAM next Sunday! Lesson 9 for Daniel will resume on Sunday, 19 October 2008.

In other news, there won't be a combined leaders meeting this coming Saturday (11 October) as well. So all GLs and servants' team members, do take note! Thanks!

See you guys tomorrow! =)

Daryl
