Passing Out

Well, today marks my last official day as the secretary for CF. It's cliched to say this but it feels like yesterday when I first went up to the post at around this time last year. It was that time that I carried on the baton from Sherene. On one hand, it can be seen as a good one year of intense learning to serve God and on the other hand, it's a relief that I can pass on the baton of responsibility to someone else already.

It's a rite of passage. A time to step up and a time to pass out. It felt just like the times when I became a specialist at the cadet corp at SJI and vice-president of the journalism club at JC. When the day came to bid farewell was there, I awoke up one day realising that I need not bring my cadets for training or handle the weekly online publication stories at the journalism club website. Right now, it's waking up realising that I no longer need to handle memos, event proposals, reviews, weekly e-mail updates and meeting minutes. In any case, I wanna thank God for all the lessons that he had taught me throughout this committee term and it's indeed a privilege to be given the chance the serve Him through this way. I've realised that I've grown alot spiritually too during this whole term of serving as secretary.

For the old committee, it has been indeed a wonderful 1 year of serving with you guys. I've really enjoyed working alongside all of you and I think we learn many new things about each other in the process. The memories from all the committee retreats that we have would definitely be times that are worth remembering. For those who are staying on in the new committee, continue the good work that you have done.

Well, I would like to wish all the best to the new CF committee. I'm sure that the new committee will lift CF to greater new heights. Continue to be a blessing to others and yea, it's now your turn to lead the charge for God's army! :)
