Potter & Clay
Potter & Clay (P&C) is a leadership formation course that we in IMU have been invited for. Adeline (Pharm), Ben (Sem4), Serena & Jonathan (Sem2) are now attending the course in St Francis Xavier (SFX) church in PJ.
There is a similar course beginning in Chapel Kurnia Kristus (CKK - sister parish of SFX), which is to be held in Subang. So far, Adeline (Sem2), Edward (Sem1) & Xandra (Sem3) are going.
The point of all this is of course to keep you all informed of what is going on in the CSS since it is kinda hard to meet everyone face to face. Please remember them in your prayers as our brothers & sisters take another step toward Christ in service & faith.
P&C, like many other activities that we may plan or join with other societies provide opportunities for you to continuouly live out your faith. Faith for faith's sake is meaningless. There has to be action to substantiate our faith and we try our best to provide opportunities for that to happen. I'll admit that we may not be the best runned society and we have our flaws but we try as best we can.
Keeping that in mind, I urge you to reflect back on your life just a little and ask yourself if you are living out your faith or are u just "believing" and leaving it as that. Don't be afraid/reluctant/shy to come forward and answer your calling to be an active & contributing member of our community.
A community goes forward only when the community wants to take that extra step out of their comfort zones... implement changes... and humbly bears all struggles & adversity knowing that sacrifice is not optional, but essential. No man is an island.
I know i sound quite haughty & a tad pompous today but I hope you'll forgive me on that. Just try and understand the underlying message =)
