Hi Christians!
I want to announce the addition of two new widgets to our North East blog! These are in addition to the other helpful very helpful widgets we now have such as the Chatterbox, Calendar, Bubbleshare photo album, and Online Sermons from church.
The new widgets are:
1. Window widget to Disciples Today
2. And Window widget to Special Events announced in church.
AS your administrator, I have been trying the best I can to make sure that our blog remains updated and functional. Hopefully everybody will take full advantage of its benefits as our blog enters its 2nd mothlyversary.
If you have any other suggestions and ideas to improve our blog, please let me know. Of all the ministries in Church, only NorthEast, Campus and Teens have their own blog. So I want to congratulate everybody for their contribution to making this blog. Let us truly use this God-given tool to bring our faith higher and to know and worship God.
God bless!

New Widgets!
We Welcome a New Brother
We welcome a new brother in the Kingdom of God!
Our new brother is Yi Xiong, fruit of our brother Jeremiah.
Jeremiah recounted the story of how unfaithful he was when evangalizing in Ang Mo Kio. There he met Yi Xiong.
At first Yi Xiong wasn't very keen in attending church because he felt it to be so far away. I remember in the car with Raymond when Jeremiah told us about Yi Xiong's problem. Raymond suggested that Jeremiah invite Yi Xiong instead to study the Bible. Suprisingly, Yi Xiong was open about it.
It was through perserverance, desire to save someone, and God's faithfulness that Jeremiah is able to baptize Yi Xiong on March 30, 2008.
From us in the North east, welcome to the Kingdom brother!

Reflections from Gideon Lu
Hi all,
I would like to share my insights from John 5:19-21
Jesus gave them this answer: "I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. Yes, to your amazement he will show him even greater things than these. For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it..."
I imagine myself as Son of God because we are all Children of God, created in his image. My Heavenly Father loves me as his son and will show me all that he does and what I should do. Yes, God has show me many amazing things, sometimes without me asking for it. God has always show me bible, people, events, ideas, etc to tell me something. The "shows" from God are truly amazing, God may even design them for me just like watching movies! I cannot revive the dead which only God can do but I can revive the livings who are as good as dead. The dead may refer to people who are stuck in their past, no hopes for future, or simply people who are as good as 'dead'. I am very blessed to be able to see and receive what God wants to tell me, and the life that God give through Jesus which many people cannot see and feel. God choose to give this life to me and he wants me to share this gift or life to others as well.

Church Humor – God does have a sense of humor…
There was a church that had problems with outsiders parking in its parking lots, so they put up a sign:
CHURCH CAR PARK - FOR MEMBERS ONLY
Trespassers will be baptized!"
CHURCH SIGN BOARDS:
"No God - No Peace"
"Know God - Know Peace."
"Free Trip to Heaven."
"Details Inside!"
"Try our Sundays."
"They're better than Dairy Queen's".
"Searching for a new look?"
"Have your faith lifted here!"
"People are like tea bags."
"You have to put them in hot water before you know how strong they are."
"Fight truth decay."
"Study the Bible daily."
"How will you spend eternity?"
"Smoking or Non-smoking?"
"Dusty Bibles lead to Dirty Lives."
"It is unlikely there'll be a reduction in the wages of sin."
"Do not wait for the hearse to take you to church."
"If you're headed in the wrong direction, God allows U-turns."
"If you don't like the way you were born, try being born again. "
"Looking at the way some people live, they ought to obtain eternal fire insurance soon."
"This is a ch_ _ ch."
"What is missing? - (U R)"
"In the dark?"
"Follow the Son."
"Running low on faith?"
"Step in for a fill-up."
"If you can't sleep, don't count sheep."
"Talk to the Shepherd."
"Come work for the Lord."
"The work is hard, the hours are long and the pay is low. But the retirement benefits are out of this world."
An ad for one Church has a picture of two hands holding stone tablets on
which the Ten Commandments are inscribed and a headline that reads,
"For fast, fast, fast relief, take two tablets."
When the restaurant next to another Church put out a big sign with red letters that said, "Open Sundays,"
the church reciprocated with its own message: "We are open on Sundays, too."
AND THE WINNER IS -
- ON THE PASTOR'S PARKING SPOT - "PASTOR'S SPOT"
"YOU PARK, YOU PREACH"
