DIVE In 06 - Testimony by Chrystin

Hi everyone! My name is Chrystin and I'm from Penang and currently studying at Limkokwing University.

I went to DIVE In last year and through it, I became part of ECF. I remember being really excited to go for DIVE In 06. My former roommate had gone to the LUCT freshie hotdog party at Desaria and brought back this really cool camp invitation. I instantly knew that I had to go.

I was impressed with the content of the camp - the activities, the games - it was fun~! I dont think anyone can be bored in a camp like that.

Last year's DIVE In camp dealt with a lot of life issues that are very important especially to the youth of today. It covered a whole range of topics from friends to relationships; heaven and hell and what the media has to offer. A lot of truths were revealed - about how deceived the generation today is; the deceptions about God; truth, morals, and the spirit realm. I enjoyed the DIVE talks at night when we would break into our groups to discuss the thoughts for the day.

What I took home from the camp was the realisation that I needed to ever closer to God, to stay rooted in His Word so that I am strong enough to carry His values into the world. Another thing that is still vivid in my mind is the call that Pastor Cathryn made to everyone at the camp. It was a call she made for those students who will be COMMITTED to make a difference in their school/college/university. Of course i went out - I believe in that call: to be the salt and light in my campus.

I really want to take this opportunity to encourage all of you to sign up for DIVE In 07 if you have not already done so. It is where faith is strengthened, fire for God is rekindled and focus on life is redirected. So yeah, dive in and discover a real world!
