Despite being very nervous to dance on stage, there were many encouragement and prayers from friends to boost my confidence and face my life challenges. I also learn that there must be unity and humbleness while serving. The journey of ER2016 inspired me a lot as God transformed my anxieties to joy as I got out of my comfort zone.

Mass for me used to be just a symbol, a reminder of Jesus’ love for us. Now I know that, really, the Eucharist is a reliving of His great sacrifice; that we can experience His love for ourselves every time we participate in mass.

Praise God for the opportunity to be a part of the coordination team! ER2016 has allowed me to experience His gentle mercy and peace through precious moments of serving with His people in this big community. It has helped me to reflect, restored my spiritual life and fuelled my journey of faith. Even though ER has ended, I believe that the beautiful journey has just begun and I can’t wait to see His wonders unfolding in my life. Praise the Lord! Hallelujah!

EWA16 was a life-changing journey for me. I learned that all of us are anointed by God. There’s always a purpose to every situation and we need to put our trust in Jesus. I’ve learnt how to let things go, move on and learn from it. Praise the Lord for changing my perceptions toward life now.

EWA18 taught me that it is very important for us to identify our inner wounds and to heal it because unhealed inner wounds will not just bring bad effects to us, it will also affect people around us and the ones we loved most. EWA has indeed not just touched my life but I believe each and everyone of us who joined it either participant or servant. I pray that more people will open up their hearts to join EWA and discover the wonderful and amazing God we have.
