My time at Ripples was fun, and exciting. The lessons I learn from each session was great. The friends here can't actually be found in school. The friends here are always there to encourage me rather than most school friends who always put you down.
Here at Ripples, I get the chance to:
-learn about God with my friends
-play the guitar for God
-worship lead
----
Also, the Ripples group joined the Teenstreet Camp 06.
It was fun. It was AWESOME! Dan and Suzie Potter sure know how to communicate with the youths :)

Transition
by Andy Lim.
Over the past 2 weeks, God has helped me in many things. These past 2 weeks, it was almost a month for me since I started college. The first few weeks I wasn't very comfortable with college life. It is a change for me. During the past 2 weeks, God helped me in a way. Maybe it's because I asked God to help me walk my college life. When I think back, I see that God had given many great new friends. Surprisingly, all my new friends are very unique in a way. They're not the same kind at all. Because of friends, college life seems much more comfortable for me and I really praise God for it. That's not all that has happened. Last week, God helped me through my test and I was able to answer all my questions. Therefore right now, I know that what I find impossible or tough is just a piece of cake to God and He is always there for me. I also thank God for giving me people who I can relate to and share everything openly.

character change
by Jonathan.
Well for the past few weeks, I've been getting a bad reputation for myself in school. Once I started focusing more on God and books, I started feeling very different.
I felt more sociable and more open-minded. I felt that my life wasn't miserable anymore. Everyday I use God's words from Proverbs and it works a lot. I'm changing from an annoying fella to a very calm and generous guy. Until today, I am still working on my maturity and my attitude on becoming a better person for God. I am very thankful to God for giving me various challenges in life for me to face.

God at work
by Leanne Ooi.
Just quite recently, a friend had come to me to share her problems. It seems like she did not know who else to go to, not even her parents because the problems she face involves them. I tried my best to comfort her, to help her. She was in a really confused state, do not know what to do. I find it quite hard to comfort her in a way that she will understand because she is not a believer.
I prayed to God and asked Him to help me with words to say to this friend. I did not know how to share about Christ to her. I prayed hard for ways to share with her. I prayed for God to use me and give me an opportunity to bring her to Him because I know that only God knows what she is going through and only He knows what are His plans for her. I believe God can help and guide her.
And amazingly, God gave me this opportunity to invite her to a rally, 'Easter Rally' organized by SMKSU. I prayed that her parents will allow her to go and God worked again. She told me that she could come. I could not help but to ask that God will speak to her and touch her in the event. God was amazing. I believe she was touched. She went out when the psator of the event called for those who wants to know more about Christ. I do hope that she will continue to grow in Christ. I thank God that He had worked so amazingly.

T.G.4.R!
by Ng Su Xin.
Ripples is a good place to have fellowship. Everyone is friendly and is a good place to obtain friends. But most of all it's a good place to learn more about God and how He lived on this earth that some of us love and some of us hate. How to become a better person for Him and also why He did all that He did. To know why He loves us so much. I learned that all He did actually had a different meaning behind it. It's sometimes heart breaking but it builds us up all the same. So, I thank God 4 Ripples! (T.G.4.R!)
