hope that as you've started ur new work, may you continue to grow more and more to be in tuned with God's plan for you. The last year of waiting on God to give you direction for work must have been really agonising and anxiety-inducing, but hope that you can look back and see how God has tested and grew your faith and dependence on Him. May this be one of the milestones in your spiritual and faith journey with Him as you continue to deepen your relationship with God. Glad that you also chose to serve in the cell - may you continue to grow and sharpen your eyes to the Lord's character and love for you through this platform, and may you be an encouraging ear to those you serve alongside with. see ya!

It was a privilege to get to know you in cell. I really enjoy your story of how you came back to the faith because it's such a message of the power of community and I can see you live it out in cell. Apart from personally feeling included when you encourage me to share my theological thoughts, I think I really witnessed it when you sought to understand Jon, when u asked abt his interests and stuff and when u coordinated the enlistment gift for him. You've shown me what it's like to use the gifts of encouragement and mercy to strengthen the body. All the best pursuing the job of your dreams, may God strengthen you in your trials. Godspeed

Wow so amazed and at the same time thankful for you. Your life is such a testimony of God’s grace and realistic with the struggles and scars that tell of the journey you have been on. I am super encouraged by you and the perspectives you bring to our discussions. You speak for the voices that have been left out in the conversation and offer alternative perspectives (e.g. for Amber in the lateness situation, and many others!)

That turning point at Clem MRT station when you started sharing about crazy God orchestrated moments of your relationship is one memory that I really cherish. Your raw sharing and baring of scars reflect and point back to God. You show me how it is that the strength of God is reflected in our weakness. Love ya for staying the course and really stepping up to serve. Your love for his people and the community around you is something that I will continue to learn too 😊 You are so capable and amazing when you use the gifts and strengths that God has made and given to you – esp in the cell fundraising for meals.

Really admire your spirit to share what you have (despite worries about money).
  
I am really glad and super happy to have been a witness to your growth! Thank you for allowing me in and sharing the journey of serving and discipleship. Really praying for you to protect this humble heart as you go about your work and be able to find fellow God-loving people to soldier on together. 
You have such a strength in making things beautiful and He will make all things beautiful in His time.

Just want to say thanks for your commitment to the cell (and joining core yay!!) and for making the cell a fun and lively place to be! I can see your heart for the people in this cell and I want to appreciate you for that; you are an important member of the cell and we love you!! 🙆🏻‍♂️ Glad to see God working in you as well as in your work life! May you feel his delight in you while you walk with him and serve him as I am sure he has been delighted in your presence and service to this cell 😊

As you transition towards your next phrase in church into the YA cell, I pray that the lord will continue bless you in what you do especially your work that he will allow you to overcome challenges that are placed before you, whether is it circumstances or the people around you that through the lord you will overcome and that you will grow into the woman that God wants you to be(you got to ask him what is it that he wants to be though).I really think that you already have been pretty blessed and do tell your boyfriend that his simple “TED talk” has inspired people around him, at for me at least because I did felt myself responding to the msg and something awaken in me also. I think you are really blessed to have him and I really believe that God’s plan has you involved in his life also and that perhaps you both would be directly or indirectly serving God together in the future. One thing for sure, he is not the only one that God is raising up to serve him as there are many others God is also raising up so he wont be alone in this!(1 Kings 19:18 ).Besides first of all he also has you along him right?

 it's been 10 years since we first met in secondary school and I wanna thank you for being you. HAHA, I still remember the day u challenged me to arm wrestling in secondary school (gonna bring this up forever). I really want to thank you for being such a joy in cell and a big part of why I rly started to enjoy coming back to cell again having someone that I can talk to (cause I’m a little awkz boy). I’m gonna miss your energetic and slightly gossipy vibes (haha just joking about this). Anyway, I rly hope that as you embark on your adulting life that you’ll find lots of joy in work and that you’ll rly find the wisdom in God to guide you down your pathway in sociology. I’m rly gonna miss you and I hope you’ll find like minded people who are as fun and as dedicated with you in your new Adult cell. Anyway have a blast and C U SOON.

I'm so sad that you are graduating from the cell alr😢 I’m gg to miss you a lot. Thanks for being so warm and friendly from the beginning and I definitely felt more comfortable in cell because of you 💖 Thanks for all the talks and sharing your story in cell hehe. Good luck with work and please visit us soon!

歌台小姐, 한국어 석사, all those various jobs that people our age don't ever consider, avid spinner

You have been a person with such character, its honestly amazing at the amount of life experience you have, the life skills you picked up, all through while growing alongside you. I think your presence is really something that the cell cherish so much and I am thankful that you made the decision to stay back to serve. Continue your tenacity in exploring new areas, and of course GOD. I'm sure there's more that the younger generation in the cell can draw inspiration (I mean just look at the motherly figure you have on Amber). 加油　頑張って　
화이팅!!!

But please note, these messages were written in June 2021, ofc you know the DOTS kids alot better now already 😬  Only this message from me, is written now in Mar 2022.... Okay, going into my message now
----------------------------------
hello my short friend
I find it really interesting that how we have grown to become friends who know the little quirks and tendencies in each other, it's quite funny how we complement each other quite well. And yet, we still get frustrated with each other, but also are able to talk about it honestly. I do enjoy and am very honoured to have seen you grow so much from the BE camp days where I first knew you — although I might not say it much. 

Something I really appreciate although I feel awkward about, is how I know you do see me as your leader and give me the authority. Although sometimes my insecurities kick in and wonder if I even made a difference in your life, or if I deserved that respect — I still don't really know the answer to this, but it's alright HAHAHAH i am thankful nonetheless for your support in things I say and want to do (if you agree with my rationale haha) and also for standing up for me to others who doubted me or had possible issues with me and my leader title, being a witness to who I am as a person. Always very thankful you had that faith in me, and it encourages me more than I express. Pretty sure we will remain friends, but one day when you leave to join your bf's church, I hope you won't forget me ok hope we will still keep in touch even as you start your family, and move on with life :') 

love, jw]]> 2022-03-28 17:51:08 UTC https://padlet.com/stephaniejw1995/shelly/wish/2117717536
