Dear brothers and sisters,
A group of young people have been bustling around in the church in the last two weeks to prepare for the annual Summer Camp in Brecon Beacon on 2-7/8. Praise the Lord, the second generation of the church are encouraged and built up in every camp.
They set off last Sunday. Though it rained most of the days, they are strengthened in their perseverance and faith.
The Swansea Church has purchased a new building. They are excitedly cleaning and tidying and doing some simple fitting-out works. In the announcements of last Sunday, I heard that some brothers and sisters were injured in the process and felt disturbed. Though it’s only minor injury, it has raised the alarm. When we serve in the church, we need to pay attention to the ‘Health and Safety’. Let us serve the Lord together with love and zeal, and also care and wisdom.
The little precious at home is doing well generally apart from the unsettled sleep. I’m excited to be able to see her ‘walking’ from crawling process. It’s fun watching her stand up unsteadily and sit down slowly. She climbs the stairs confidently and even tries to walk along the rail. Climbing down the stairs is so smooth that she becomes less careful. I can smell danger.
Too many restrictions will hinder her development, but too much freedom will spoil her.
‘Start children off on the way they should go.’ It’s really not easy!
In Him,
Sam Wong
