YMLC 2007 Moments

WOW! God has answered our prayers to demonstrate His power at the conference!! A good number of people healed of various sicknesses including long term ones. Hey, those who were healed, and yes we remember who you are, please email your testimonies (50 to 100 words) to me at barnabas@cairnhillmc.org.sg so I can put it up on the blog and give glory to God; testimonies of other kinds are all welcome too! The teachings by President Rev Wee Boon Hup, Rev Edmund De Souza, Rev Dr Jon Seet, Pastor Aaron Tay (another good looking pastor:)), Mr David Wong and Mr Choe Peng were inspiring and have blessed all of us, thanks!! And what a blessing to have Catherine Wee and Jessie De Souza join us and minister to our young leaders too, thanks ladies. Thanks to all the mentors for sharing your lives and insights with the groups :) Worship was great and it's getting better each year, thanks to Glenn and his team from PLMC, Ivy, Si Qi and their team from BMC, Eugene and his team from WMC or WC (their preferred initials I was told) :)), Rufus and his team from AMC, Ruperto and his team from CMC (hey that's the initials for my church too!) and Hazel and her team from BRMC (my home church:))! Thanks too to Elizabeth for writing the theme song, Unlimited Power, now we can't get it out of our heads - a number of people told me that! Thanks to Bobby for your song, In You, some inspiring tune and lyrics; you sure got great pressure to come up with the winning song next year - go strangle Eugene! Thanks to Jonas for your song, Unlimited Power (We Abide In You), great tune and lyrics, very devotional! Ah, and all the other songwriters too - Steven, Nigel, Ben, Jimmy (the rocker), Glenn (the 6/8 guy), Reginald and Mark M! And my dear colleagues, thank you so much for putting your hands to the plough and serving so well with me in the organizing committee - appreciate you all. Praise be to God!





















The following video begins with a loud constant audio buzz (stood too close to the speaker lah), then it gets better, later the buzz becomes intermittent, but it's still worth watching as it captures our passion at YMLC :)

YMLC 2007 Songs

Yo everyone, praise the Lord for the 9 songs submitted to the YMLC Committee to be considered for this year's conference theme song! When we started this theme song thing two years ago, there were 4 songs submitted. Last year, there were 5. So as you can see, we're progressing well :) The top 3 songs were selected, not without difficulty though, because of the relatively high standards. To show our appreciation to all the songwriters, we actually have a gift and a certificate of participation for every song submitted! They will receive these at the Opening Service of the YMLC on Fri 7 Sep, 11am.

I'm very pleased to share with you, for now, the top 3 songs (click on song titles below to download files and the lyrics/chords are also available below). These 3 songs will be featured at the conference. Third place goes to Jonas Chow of Faith MC for his song, Unlimited Power (We Abide In You). Yes, this year's theme is Unlimited Power. The second best entry is the song, In You, by Bobby Lam of Wesley MC. And the best entry, which is this year's YMLC theme song, is Unlimited Power written by the only female contributor, Elizabeth Chia of Paya Lebar MC! Here are the songs for your listening pleasure and it is our prayer that the Lord will use each of these songs to inspire and bless you. With the permission of the other songwriters, I will be uploading the other 6 songs at a later date. Please do give your comments and encouragement to the songwriters here in this blog or when you see them :)
