SIB Alive - Amy's baptism 28.11.2011

Amy from Hebei, China, flew in to Kota Kinabalu for her convocation in Universiti Malaysia Sabah. She used to join us in the SIB Alive student ministry before going on to work in Shanghai after graduating.

To make it a double celebration, she requested to be baptised on Malaysian soil. So a group of us gathered in Tanjung Lipat beach yesterday for the auspicious occasion.

Auntie Tiok Hua started the session with scriptural reading.

Moved to tears by the song on the wonderful blessing of knowing and trusting in Jesus.

Great sunny day for baptism.

'I have decided to follow Jesus... no turning back, no turning back...'

It's great to have friends cheering along.

Beach outing for the kids.

Prayers for Amy as she brave the world with a new commitment to follow Christ.

TC sharing some words of encouragement... 'there will be trials and tribulations in your walk ahead, but don't turn back.'

Overjoyed to get a durian cake.... with love, from Malaysia.

The gang.

Amy said she missed bak kut teh... coz she couldn't find such good stuff in Shanghai and the rest of China. So we went for dinner at the best BKT in town.

The girls discussing how to cook BKT for their families in China.

Getting tips from the master... 'you must cook the meat in one big piece, take it out immediately once it is cooked, then slice it... don't throw everything into the pot... cannot eat one like that.'

Ryan found his own company.

若有人在基督里，他就是新造的人，旧事已过，都变成新的了。
