The Return of The Gangster

Written by Eunice Tan
Edited by Eliza Tan

In this ICC meeting, we encountered two new, ambitious gangsters! How did this come to be? Well, it all started with the icebreaker. I, Eunice, led everyone through an exciting game that involved us making our own advertisements. Each team received an item from me, and had 5 minutes to prepare for a 1 minute advertisement!


 Hehe... I really have to do also wan ah...

We all had a good laugh over some rather unbelievable and humorous presentations!

Group 1:


Let me show you what you can do with this amazing device, Artline 600!


Advertiser: If you're a boy, you can use it as a taser on your naughty friends!
Victims: No! No! Have mercy on us!


Advertiser: If you're a girl, you can use it as nail polish!
Painter: Oooo pretty!

Group 2:


Presenting, THE PEN.


You can use THE PEN to draw any place you want to go to and step right into it.


Ahh... and you can kill people!!

Group 3:


This wonderful ball can fit an entire Christmas tree with all its decorations inside!


Just press a button and your decorated Christmas tree will spring out of the ball! No more tiring hours spent on trying to decorate during Christmas! Get your own magic ball now! On sale!

Group 4:


Coming to you, the all-new, special sunglasses!


Very good wan lah...


You just absorb the healthy chemicals from the sunglasses...


Wahh... I feel the power already...


And also can look good for picture lahh....


Get a pair of the all-new special sunglasses now! Limited stock!



Haha. That was an enjoyable icebreaker! We certainly got warmed up for the rest of the meeting ahead of us!





Coach Joseph shared with us a very useful phrase to say whenever we meet up with non-Christian friends or strangers: 'I am a Christian, and this is what the Bible says...' It worked for Coach Joseph when he conversed with various taxi drivers with different beliefs about their religion. We saw that there really is nothing to be ashamed of when it comes to our beliefs. When he used this phrase, Coach Joseph was surprised that the people he was talking to did not get offended at all, and even agreed with him most of the time. We certainly were surprised at how much could be communicated by beginning with such a short, simple statement.

Next came the RETURN OF THE GANGSTER:
(dun dun dun dun!)

Now came the time we were all preparing for... when we will be asked:


(music gets more dramatic)


Miss me, lehh... Let's get on with the interviews, shall we?



HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT THE BIBLE IS TRUE?



The Bible is true because... 


What a humorous interrogation session.


It's hard to keep a straight face...


The Bible can change lives.


Check it out. 
                                        


Face the truth, atheist!


Now we're even.


This is my man!


Hehe... trying not to laugh lahh...


I am a Bible-believing gangster! Don't play play!


 Atheist: Hmm... I haven't thought about that before...


 I hope the atheist likes my persuasive smile.

The interviews ended with Eliza, and she presented very good reasons on why the Bible is true.
Sorry no photo :(

Next, my sister, Eliza, and I presented our first platform speeches!


Eliza shared about what true love really means, and how important this is to the community. 
We truly learned a lot from her interesting speech. 


I delivered a speech about how truth sets people free, and how much the world needs truth. 
It was a great experience to present and get helpful feedback.

After our platform speeches, we had an excellent time of fellowship and sharing!

We can't wait for our next ICC meeting in 2015!
