we can't wait anymore. the excitement has been building up so much, it's OVERFLOWING :D
- all the youths who've helped us find stories to share through the crazy things you do, or even the most trivial (to you) activities you engage in.
as we've said earlier, thank you for joining the PUBTEAM, and for being the best advertisements we could ever have/imagine!- YOU for supporting this blog and maybe even for COMING TO OVERFLOW (:
- and last but definitely not the least, thank God for just helping us through every step of the way, the planning, the execution, the stressful deadlines..etc, and for just giving us the inspiration!
you know what, i am sure this team can testify that God has truly been good throughout our planning process. He's been that faithful rock, there at all times, even when things were difficult and maybe some things just weren't going the way it was planned. but we are sure that at the end of it all, everything is in His hands. we've done as much as we could have with His help and the gifts He has given us, and we have tried our best to glorify His name here on this blog.
He will be there at OVERFLOW, and so will we :D

Benjamin, is heading the all new sub-committee this year, called Evangelism.
With him are his other side-kicks, Felicia, Melanie & Mei Yi.
Tabitha, is heading (oh well, she's actually alone in this sub-comm), Prayer.
Let's find out what are their thoughts about OVERFLOW!
1. How does it feel being part of the overflow camp comm?
Benjamin: Hmm.... Great!.... haha. Really thankful for the opportunity to be serving God again!
Tabitha: its been pretty great really. tested my faith alot but the awesome fellowship and friendships strengthened and huge amount of support from people around (sometimes even the most unexpected kinda ppl) was God's way of telling me He'd be there and provide for me through it all.
2. what can the campers look out for this year in your sub-comm that makes it different from other years?
B: Wah... this one a bit tough leh.... cos still got a few things haven't fully ironed out.... but i think perhaps the altar call.... maybe for the group leaders, it may be learning to share Christ using evangelistic tools such as 4SL. For the devotionals, hopefully we can find stuff that can relate to both Christians and pre-believers, and stuff that are relevant to real-life too.
T: well, besides the initiative to pray as a ministry before camp, i guess this year will be a time for us to just really get ourselves lost in conversation with God-- as a whole camp, as a group and especially individually. and i pray too that it'll be a time for those who need to, to renew their commitment to Him personally.
3. what's the most difficult part of planning for your respective sub-comm?
B: Erm... maybe the fact that it's a new comm..... so when I approach people for sub-comm, they are like... what are we supposed to do?... yup... and maybe the time constraints...
T: It's really not a logistical thing that can be planned, and that is the most major challenge. it depends on the time i put aside to seek God and just wait on Him. it's a huge test of my personal walk with Him and my faith and that can be really really tough.
4. what's one thing you would like to say to all the youths out there?
B: Let's do our utmost to give our friends an opportunity to hear about God's love and the abundant life He has in stored for them!
T: Get ready to have the awesomest time of your lives guys, not just with the fun and games, but with discovering a God so great who still would wanna set aside time to listen to us. amazing, isnt He?
5. one word to describe your comm?
B: Faith-stretching?
T: (two words pleasee) A Gift.
