discussion for today

• Missions: no
• Youth alpha: yes
• Cg timings
o hold cg with sec 1s when Pauline is in sawa
o Friday night : 8-9.30pm
o Sunday morning aft 9am svc (most votes)

• a. What is CG to you. Where is it in your level of priority. Where do you want it to be. How are you going to change your attitude towards CG (if you intend to change)
o sarah: it depends on what is happening on her schedule that day. Aimless priority. Will change when she feels cg is becoming more meaningful/changing.
o Luke: priority quite high up; attitude not going to change, satisfied with status quo.
o Joel: very high priority. No intention to change attitude towards cg
o Beryl: high priority. Fine with status quo
o Kelvin: I feel pressured to answer!!!!!!
o Ezra: tries best to come; parental constraint.
o Pearly: not very high; don’t learn anything, schoolwork more important, fruitful than before
o Brandon: below school; take up time, schoolwork more important.

• b. Whose CG is it. Why are you coming for CG. (MY cg? YOUR cg? OUR cg? GOD's cg?)
o Kelvin: josh and esther. Comes for cg cos he wants to gain a new perspective of life
o Beryl: everyone in the cg. Come for cg for a time of BS, fellowship and sharing
o Ezra: don’t even think this is a cg anymore. Same reason as beryl
o Pearly: doesn’t feel like cg. Come cg hopefully to find a new meaning in it and try to reconnect with God once again.
o Brandon: everyone in the cg. Not coming cos of schoolwork; will come for fellowship and learn more about God
o Sarah: our cg. Coming to stay in touch with God; if not I’ll be disconnected from church COS I DIDN’T GO SERVICE WHAT
o Joel: our cg I GUESS. But if we think of it as my cg, I think more ppl will come. Sense of ownership instead of a shared responsibility that can be pushed away.

• c. who went/didn't go for the talk and why. would you have come if it were CG as usual instead of the talk and why.
o Joel: not interested, so study for exam
o rest didn’t even bother to check the blog, so “didn’t know there was a talk”

• d. what were our goals/visions for the CG. are we following it/ achieving anything and how can we improve.
o Beryl: cg bonding and leave impact on youth min. cg bonding- working on it. Impact on youth min- nothing. To do anything, we first have to come for cg
o Sarah: attendance, regardless of who else is attending. We’re achieving it cos no one coming. Change cg timing.
o Joel: won’t ask who is coming cos knows who will come. Don’t know what goals
o Pearly: what goals? (didn’t attend; saw goals but forgot)
o Brandon: attendance rate. Answer is evident. (Brandon doesn’t even attend cg)
o Esther: QT goal is…

• e. how do you want to contribute to the CG and Youth Min this year.
o Kelvin: up to God to decide. Volunteer for CWTC
o Beryl: serve in sec 1 cg
o Joel: start smaller somewhere, provide constructive comments during cg
o Sarah: not yet – till we move back into the church building. Can do designing for this year’s youth camp.
o Pearly: projection and volunteer for events
o Brandon: Attempt to come more
o Ezra: nothing --

• f. describe your attitude. I mean general attitude and perspective.
o Beryl: i have no answer
o Ezra: uh. Not too productive; need church building back
o Kelvin: YAH WE NEED THE CHURCH. Wait this is not an answer hahahaha. Sometime cg no sense of urgency.
o Joel: cg is a good place to get away from everything.
o Sarah: a bit bochup. But still wants to go if not will totally be lost and disconnected from church and God. Cg helps to stay in touch with God. There’s a difference between CG and God.
o Pearly: if cg is not fruitful, then don’t see the point in going, esp with a lot og work. But if it can help improve r/s with God, then will attend cg.
o Brandon: not sure

• What is the diff btwn cg last time in church building and now?
o Not diff now if ade and eu jin are around. Desensitized to ‘pleas’ to come for cg
o ‘mood is not there’
o Complicated CGL/ cluster leader hierarchy. Unstable.
o Church building offers a sense of a ‘peaceful sanctuary’
o No time now in tertiary education
