This Sunday, we started with "Blow Wind Blow" again (no wonder the haze is all gone!). But this time round, if you are out, you have to tell a story using any three pictures from the nine pictures given. In this icebreaker, we are required to respond fast both physically and mentally, and be a creative impromptu story teller.

Next, our Chapter Sponsor Coach Joseph threw us a meaningful question- "What makes some people more prepared in crisis"? "Being filled with the Spirit", " Fearing God", and "Being familiar with the truth" were some of the answers shared by the speakers. Coach Joseph illustrated that life is actually a series of preparations. Man is made up of body ( physical ), soul (mind) and spirit (consciousness). When we are put to a test, the first test is the spirit. If we have been constantly fed by the spirit of God, we will respond with God's Spirit. But when there is nothing in our spirit, our soul will take over. When our soul takes charge, we will follow our mind, doing what we think is right in our own eyes. If we have nothing in our soul too, the body will then take control. This usually leads to depression, anger, etc.

In conclusion, we must be spiritually strong at all times, to face any circumstances in life. We were reminded again that there are two tracks in ICC :- portfolio as well as communication with conviction.
Then, we proceeded with our portfolio coaching before the speakers practiced presenting our respective speeches to the chapter.
First off was Jern Ling and Jern Yoong who did their humorous duo interpretation, "Are you My Mother?"
