After the icebreakers, everyone enjoyed a time of fellowship and engaging conversation whilst tucking into a delicious Christmas dinner that featured festive favourites such as turkey, ham and chocolate cake.  Dinner was followed by a series of team games. The participants were split into 4 teams, and each team had to complete a relay race involving various challenges, such as throwing a ping pong ball into a  cup, flipping and catching a bunch of chopsticks, and  partnering a team member to hoist and carry a can across the room with a stick of spaghetti.

This was followed by a sharing by Pastor Alex, who reminded the community that in the spirit of thanksgiving, we celebrate the goodness of God in our lives and reflect on the importance of giving thanks to God in all circumstances. The event ended with a round of caroling by our church choral group, G Major, who led us through singing all-time favourite Christmas carols such as Carol of the Bells, Hark the Herald Angels Sing and Joy to the World. This transited into a time of candlelight carolling with participants holding candles and passing the flame from one candle to another.

All in all, it was a wonderful night where the young adults came together as a community to bond with each other, reflect on God’s goodness and give thanks to Him for His many blessings in our lives and in our  community.
