AYC AGM 2010

Finally, the final term for the AYC Committee Members of the term 2008 - 2010!! The AYC AGM was held this afternoon at 1.00pm and were attended by members from the PCC, Taman Tunku, Lambir and also from our mother parish. The attendance were about 30, not as good as last year but it will not discourage us, in fact,  it will motivate us to really play a role as part of the AYC and to fulfill the real objectives of the AYC as per written constitution.

We started with an opening prayer from Archdeacon Solomon Cheong followed by his message for all the young people. We were then encouraged by our very own AYC Advisor, Bro. Derek Cornas together with his new proposal for the new AYC structure.
A great challenge by the Chairman of the AYC, Bro. Bajeng where he challenged the next elected office bearers with "dare to transform" message. Indeed it's a very big calling but with the grace of God everyone will be able to transform! AMEN!
Elsa was our dedicated chairperson for the meeting...
And Magdalene, a faithful Multimedia and Publicity minister who handles the slides...
Apart from the messages, we have reports from the Secretary, Treasurer and representatives from the various extension centres and ministries.

Once all the representatives presented their yearly report, we have election of the new office bearers. It's women dominated this year, and lets congratulate our new AYC Executive Committee for the term 2010 - 2012.

The 7 committee members are representatives from the various ministries/extension centres. They are among the youth from Lambir, Taman Tunku, Liam, Boys and Girls Brigade, Chinese Service Youth and also the Young Adult Ministry.

May God guide the newly elected committee that we will be able to fulfill the objectives of the AYC and we will be able to cater the needs of our young people in the church.

Diocesan Youth Sunday Carnival Celebration

On the 25th July 2010, all the youth throughout the diocese celebrated the Diocesan Youth Sunday. As per our promotion, the AYC organised a Diocesan Youth Sunday Carnival Celebration at Padang Pusat Belia. We thank God for a good weather, though it drizzle a little bit in the end but we still have fun! Thanks to all who helped a lot in the preparation of this event.

However, we started with the Praise and Worship in the church, for all Iban, English and Chinese services. The Iban Service was lead by Bro. Timothy and his worship team.

For the English Service, it was lead by Sis. Melissa together with the same worship team.

Sis. Evonne was doing the Epistle reading
Sis. Magdalene leading in intercession

On top of that, we have the participants from the Children Bible Camp to perform with a few songs taught during their bible camp on the 23rd - 24th July 2010.

The Youth Carnival only started around 2.00pm at Pusat Belia.
