Community Service

ConneXion Semenyih had its first community service last Friday morning. For a UK based campus, Good Friday was actually a holiday. We gathered in the morning, go around Taman Tasik Semenyih 5 (our housing area) and pick rubbish, that's what we did.

9 am in the morning:

So there were 13 of us split into 3 groups and go our separate ways to pick rubbish. Oh gosh, my group is gonna go along the playground, bus stop, and uni bridge... the most happening route in the whole TTS. Statistically, bottle is the most thrown rubbish all around, I wonder... Oh ya, Sarah picked up two reload coupon for DIGI and it's still usable.

Our group started working:

It's almost 1 hour til we met another group at our finishing line. Considering that we still have some big bags with us, we'll just go a bit further than we planned (reaching some parts of TTS3 and TTS4). Wow, these are our piled up result of picking rubbish.

Meeting the other group at the finishing line:

OK, hard work that worth one hour and thirty minutes. Here we are back to ConneXion house waiting for Uncle Rodney to bring us lunch. Everyone seems to be worn out, although it's just morning. Honestly, a moment of peace is what we needed the most, but it won't be easy during this season of due dates.

Tired face:

Well, everyone seems to be chilling like it's summer break. We started to play spongebob monopoly and whatever relaxing method. I went back to have a refreshing shower (can't stand it although no direct contact with rubbish). At 1 pm, lunch arrived and we had a big feast!

Chilling and lunch:


"Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is born of God and knows God."
-1 John 4:7-

Oh Lord, teach us how to love each other in Your name. Make good use of us to shine for the world to see. As our work is small and unworthy, through You we believe, we can make a difference. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
