Last week we had a group of 4 young adults from Singapore visit the Philippines: Cornelius Boon, Elisa Boon, Lisa Ong, and Joanne Tan. Also joining us for the weekend was Erin Braaksma, a member of Georgetown PRC.
We enjoyed getting to know them all and taking them around. But most of all we were thankful for the fellowship they could have with the various groups and churches here, especially with the young people.
On Saturday, July 6 we made an early morning trip to the First Reformed Church in Bulacan for a morning of fun and fellowship with the youth there.
Breaking the ice.
A devotional on the universal church.
Let the games begin - Extreme Ninja!
(With everyone starting in a circle, you then took turns making one move. The idea (I think) was to knock someone else's arm in your move in order to eliminate him. Each person has two arms, so two hits before you are eliminated.)
Dog and Bones!
(See which team member or team could grab the "bone" and get back across his line before being tagged.)
Blow Wind Blow!
(Something like Fruit Basket Upset.)
Checking out the latest issue of the "Salt Shakers" magazine produced by the youth of CERC.
Group Photo!
And another one.
Going for a walk to see the neighborhood and market.
Checking out some pictures.

We are so thankful for the time of fellowship so that the youth could experience first hand the beautiful truth of the catholic (universal) church.
"All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. For the kingdom is the LORD's: and he is the governor among the nations.... A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation."
Psalm 22: 27, 28, 30.
(Scripture for that morning's devotional)
