*.* PTC - Primers Training Camp *.*

My 3 Days 2 Nights camp just ended yesterday with another long and exciting Polar Bear game. Interestingly, we didn't camp at any campsite but in an empty house, all thanks to Sir Eng kite who kindly lent us his house and we did mess it up quite well.

First night of the camp was memorable, I will never forget what the officers did to us. We were made to go through the prosecutions that some Christians are going through now in some countries so we were put to test. Given a Bible, pen, some pieces of paper, a candle and lighter, we were told to set up churches. We got to form groups of 3, write down all the books in the Bible accordingly, light a candle and sing a praise song after which when we see an officer coming out, we can choose to run or face him. If he comes with a stamp and said 'Well done, good and faithful servant', we are safe and continue building churches. But if he comes and ask questions and said 'Follow me', that's when the horror comes.

The waiting outside was tough. The screaming, water splashing, slapping and the clashing of the sound of chains were quite scary. They used crockroaches on me, as usual knowing that I fear that the most, made us crawl on the ground, screamed at us, threatened to shave our eyebrow, slapping each other, spitting each other, chained us up and tying us to a tree. It may sounds funny, but if this is a real live situation, I think it's not funny at all. It's life threatening.
That night, we slept at 3am.

Second night, we slept quite early but still I guess my mind was so simulated by the Polar Bear game that I couldn't sleep. It was so exciting and of course I was thinking why didn't I trust some people during that game and 'killed' so many innocent blood. It was so simulated that there were people sleep-talking in the middle of the night. (laughs)

Last day at last, we all woke up super early to get to church for service and came back for the final session. We done a very significant act to serve one another, teaching us to be humble to wash each other feet. I am reminded that all leadership modeled after Jesus and since Jesus done that to his disciple and even the one who betrayed him, we ought to pick up our towels too. After that we got to face all the mess that we had done and clean up for it. Our cleaning was fast where the job was very well distributed. Then, we had our last Polar Bear Game. That round was a very very long and difficult round. Well, I trusted the wrong person and the Polar Bear won.

I guess this is a good bonding for us as Primers and Officers. It doesn't matter which company we are serving because we still come under the same coverage in the church and our ultimate aim is we serve God.
