The day start off by doing those usual routine, like Squad Leader fall-in and Muster Parade.
After which we had our Sing-A-Long session, and definitely everyone was shocked, upon knowing that Officer Justin take over as our Sing-A-Long Leader, because seldom do we see such scene whereby the Officer is the Sing-A-Long. We sang Christmas carols and some songs, however in the midst of enjoying these soothing melody, it is always important to make an effort to understand the meaning behind all these words.
Mr Chin took over afterward, as the devotion leader! We did something different again, for this devotion, Mr Chin show us a video clip about how's God love has moved people heart and touched their life. He emphasised to us that while enjoying this joyous season, we must never forget why are we celebrating this day. People nowadays has the misconception on what is the true meaning behind Christmas, many people regard this day as simply a day for them to exchange gift and the chance to see Orchard road up with many beautiful lightening. And there is lots of thing around us that has caused us to drift away from our knowing the true significance of this day, and Mr Chin refer all these as "Noises". They are things that is always around us, so Mr Chin urged us that we should take time to quieten down ourselves and reflect about it. Christmas is not about us, is about Jesus, the Son of God! He is the reason of why we are able to be here!
Right after that, we did something new, that we never had done before! Normally we will bring gifts and exchange it within ourselves, we did something that is more cool thoi time rounf , nevertheless much more meaningful! It was a Christmas Card Exchange session! We were randomly given a paper, which on it state the code on who are we writing too. We were given Christmas Card and using that we are supposed to write some well-wishes to the person that is stated on the paper. I got Lek Wei! In the mean time, we also received a gift which is contributed by all the working officer! Thanks Officers!
I didn't joined the others for the later part of that day, because of something on, but I think all of them had a great time out there!
After all, the emphasis of this whole programme was to let us known the difference on how Christian and how people around the world celebrate this season of peace and giving!
Enjoy the pictures of Squad Corinthians out!
