Glad to Help

Hi,

Alright lets get down into business. My day was is very insightful and inside-ful(there is no such word as inside-ful, but whatever). I wake up to my shock-ness, cause i thought i woke up late but it was only 830am. So went back to sleep. Woke up again to check the time. 1120am. So was time to get up, and i know i had to go some where with Aunt Jo. And i thought that Jay would sms me or call me to let me know in so details but he didn't, no harm done. Just need to make a call to Aunt Jo. This comes the hard part. I think i call Aunt Jo and Uncle Phua a million times, not of them answer their phone. I started feeling desperate cause Jay ask anyone of us to go for this thing and i volunteer to go this thing. Anyway, i was persistent, keep on calling their phone. In the end i made a short prayer and when out to lunch around 1230pm. So i try again, manage to get through. So i speak to Aunt Jo and she say yes that she can pick me and go to the place.

Cut the story short,

This place that i went with Aunt Jo is for our Christmas event that we help out with our friends to volunteer to help several organizations. So this place is call 'Jumble Station'. This place basically sells second hand stuffs or stuff that you don't want already in your house. Make sure is in good condition first. But this place is special cause this place is raising money to help people in poverty. Especially single mom's. This 'Jumble Station' is run by itself, no involvement of church's or other organizations. This 'Jumble Station' is run by a Christian lady, and she is the co-founder. Before she started this, she was a Journalist and a Photographer, if i remember correctly, she use to work for Edge the magazine. Anyway, the store now is fill with a lot of things, for toys to electrical stuff. Okay okay, the main purpose of this store was to help single mom's. This single mom's, their problem is that they have many many kids. How many kids? minimum 3 kids, max you just don't want to know is a lot. So this single mom's is hard for them to support their kids, cause they are earning about 500 riggit to 700 riggit and they are staying in apartments, where the rent is about 250 riggit, and the other money? you know go where food, clothes, phone credits and etc.

So what 'Jumble Station' does is to help them financially. like paying the rent and tuition and so on. There are a lot of more details. Is quite hard to translate into writing. Best is to see the place yourself. This 'Jumble Station' also sells their things in a really low price. Some single mom's buy things there cause is super cheap. Beside all that, if you have any electronic stuff that you have no use for it, you can give it to them, like tv, radio, vcr, dvd, and so on. The most they need is a fridge. Anything electrical is good. Make sure is in working condition and still usable. There quite a number of stores around Selangor. What can do to help? well we still in planing can going to sit down with the leaders and discuss it. You should see the owner, she really have a heart for this people and she is very inpiration to me, hope also to the aunts and uncles who went. Just hear her speak is so full of life, passion and willingness.

So if you want further details, you can go to the website to check out yourself. Click here. So don't throw away any electronic goods. Washing machine and frigde is the most needed and the others are mostly wants. Hearing the stories that the owner tells about this single mom's can make you feel sorry. Well that is why we are helping them during Christmas. This was my day there. is a wonderful to see these people doing God's Work is simply wonderful. If you want to check out the place here is a postcard of the place.

Today i also wanted to play basketball, but the weather force us not too. Oh well today i'm going to pray very very hard that it will not rain tomorrow late afternoon. God is fair enough that You have rain on the weekdays, i pray that You help me by leaving the weekends dry so that i can play basketball and have fun with my friend, the church members. You may rain in the morning but leave the late afternoon all the way to night dry. I believe in You, i commit all this unto Your Name, Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.

Be praying,
