Sept 2010 Session 准我接近你／信仰是什麼 (Sept 23rd 2010)

九月份嘅主題係准我接近你／信仰是什麼

信仰是什麼？- 是很難，好抽象的東西。 我們用另外的方法去present就是令參加者relate faith to other people similar to faith to God

我哋今次玩嘅遊戲叫聲聲相識。希望每個參加者都有機會做被蒙眼的和帶路的人。

被蒙眼的- 去感受相信partner是善的 =（相信 God is love）
去感受無助 人不是萬能，人是要相信幫你的人
去感受「全心」的依賴

Sharing 分享完遊戲的感受
1. 相信你的partner嗎？
2. 平日有幾依靠身邊的人？

阿信的故事 ‧帶出天主教信仰是什麼
人類和天主的關係

准我接近你

由人與人要維繫關係要「溝通」， similar to God。 We need to pray to communicate with God。

接角近尾聲嘅時候，我們唱了以下首歌

「准我接近你」

星空伴朗月共沉醉
唯獨我孤身面對
尋覓祢影踨難找到
難道祢要我放棄淚暗湧

孩兒請不必再找　
因我靠著你
晝與夜從沒間斷在你心
若然拋開心裡憂　
必會接近我
長途共我同步去

“Children,
ask then you receive,
seek and you will find.
When you knock
and the door be opened, too.
Would you tell me
what you want,
then listen to my words,
I will guide you all the way.”

主為甚賜下苦與憂
沉重擔子怎面對
前路裡太多全不知道
長路裡會有那個伴我走

孩兒怎不懂我心　
一切已為你
遙遙路暗暗帶領伴你身
請將心打開　
容許我接近你
那管路遠同面對

Children,
ask then you receive,
seek and you will find.
When you knock
and the door be opened, too.
Would you tell me
what you want,
then listen to my words,
I will guide you all the way.”

August session (Aug 26) - 痛苦

"痛苦"是我們Catholic Open House八月份的主題。"痛苦"往往令我們聯想到失望、沮喪、傷心。為什麼好像總是不能跟快樂連在一起呢？這次，我們就透過了遊戲，令參加者明白到凡事都有不同的角度，只是在乎我們用什麼心態去面對，痛苦其實只是天父給我們的磨鍊，無論我們開心與否，天父亦會對我們不離不棄，與我們一起同行去面對困難和挑戰。





與你同行

舊日　在那風中獨行 世界　沒有關心問候 我卻　獨自承受和面對 孤單　只好強笑前行 * 現在　幸有基督在旁 我已　挺起胸襟振作 此刻　懷着盼望相遇上 傷悲　如從未發生
** 如今終可與你同行無需再怕孤身浮沉是你令我今生也覺無撼是你令我變改交出摯誠和熱愛讓我共你牽手同尋覓路去 ** * 但願共你一起走進這光輝未來敎我以熱誠扶持堅忍如果他朝你捨我不顧我如何面對遇上你令我立志奮力前闖 (重唱 **) © 2000 Photon Distribution Inc. All rights reserved.

WCCCLC camp 2010

Dear God,Thank you for guiding us and being with us at the WCCCLC camp this year.Full of joy, full of love. It is also a blessing for COH that we had 8 COH members on the stage to promote COH at the camp. This a photo of some COH members with our speaker this year, Fr. Paul Kam.We were touched and inspired not just by his words, but also his action of love and being present with us. One of the precious passage from Fr. Kam. "Come and See, Go and Tell". Three of our members are the first time camper of WCCCLC, which affirmed that "Come and See" does not have to happen first. God does have his plan for every one of us. How to reply to God's Love? "Go and Tell", is one the way for us to reply. 愛你的近人，去回應主對我們的愛。

以愛還愛
曲/詞: Magnificat

編曲: Lennie Cristobal

* 主祢浩瀚大愛　令我高歌懸在十架　張開雙手　擁抱著我這愛　赦免我罪　領我心歸家去唯獨在祢愛內　才能活出真我
主祢浩瀚大愛　令我高歌完全藉祢體血　交出真愛這聖事灌溉我的心不再怕乾枯飢渴接受了這深愛　要以愛去頌謝我主
** 攜主愛的心　不分階級膚色齊憑著這愛　將世界擁入懷抱共拓展　主愛的國度齊邁向　主愛內共融讓我將　基督愛的足跡　遍佈於世 ** *
(重唱 *)
(重唱 **)
讓我將　基督愛的足跡　遍佈於世

July Session (July 22) - 最偉大的愛-耶穌

The topic for the July session is 最偉大的愛-耶穌. This was our second COH gathering for 2010 and we had about 50 participants. We were excited to have over a dozen of newcomers this time! We were gracious to have Auntie Connie leading a team of wonderful cooks to prepare dinner for us.


For the ice-breaker game, we played the "Big TV", where each team clued the team member who was trying to guess the word shown on the TV. We had a lot of fun playing the game and the winner team received a price!

We were also pleased to have a lot of interactive discussion during our group sharing around the topic of "The Impression of Jesus". We also shared the following bible quote, which it showed that God loves us very much that he is willing to send his only son to save us.

若望福音3: 16 - 17

天主竟這樣愛了世界、甚至賜下了自己的獨生子、使凡信祂的人、不至喪亡、反而獲得永生。

因為天主沒有派遣子到世界上來審判世界﹐而是為叫世界藉著祂而獲救。

October Session: 准我接近祢+信仰是甚麼

Our 5th COH gathering took place in Oct. 22, 2009. There were two themes in this gathering and we divided the program into two parts. There were about 60 participants in this gathering. Besides there were more newcomers participated our gathering, some of our participants were come as a whole family. We were pleased that more young people come to join our program.

In the first part of the gathering, we presented a short skit about a person who loses his way and how he finds his own path both in his journey and his life. In the second part of the gathering, it is our pleasure to have Aaron sharing his experience of how to overcome fear and panic by having faith in God. We also had a short praying session in order to reflect and to refresh ourselves. At the end of the praying session, we sang the song 准我接近祢 together and here is the lyrics.

准我接近你

曲: Paul Yeung
詞: Paul Yeung
唱: Florence Au, Gabriel Woo

星空伴朗月共沉醉
唯獨我孤身面對
尋覓祢影踨難找到
難道祢要我放棄淚暗湧

孩兒請不必再找　因我靠著你
晝與夜從沒間斷在你心
若然拋開心裡憂　必會接近我
長途共我同步去

*“Children, ask then you receive,
seek and you will find.
When you knock
and the door be opened, too.
Would you tell me what you want,
then listen to my words,
I will guide you all the way.”

主為甚賜下苦與憂
沉重擔子怎面對
前路裡太多全不知道
長路裡會有那個伴我走

孩兒怎不懂我心　一切已為你
遙遙路暗暗帶領伴你身
請將心打開　容許我接近你
那管路遠同面對

*Repeat

Be brave to ask, and God will give your a right answer!!
