Walking into City Light Church not knowing what to
expect, the Seniors finally had their long awaited class activity! On Friday,
April 23rd, the Senior class attended a worship night that was planned
by their very own class president, Daniel Choi.
For more than a year now, the pandemic known as
covid-19 has greatly affected the whole world negatively, and this is
especially true for Dalat’s class of 2021. Starting with the cancellation of
the JSB they themselves were supposed to host, a series of disappointments
continued to greet them as they entered their last year in Dalat.
Daniel Choi even said: “I felt numb throughout the
year, and I felt it in my class. It was as if God had forgotten us for a whole
year. But truth is, he never left us, he was building patience in us for THIS
MOMENT RIGHT NOW!” This was said during the Worship Night.
The night started off with Ms. Henderson providing
an icebreaker, in which some volunteers were to throw a tennis ball into a
basket from where they sat. After a few had attempted it, the icebreaker ended
and the worship team led the night. After singing the first 4 songs, Uncle
Keith gave an inspirational talk to the Seniors challenging them to be leaders
and leave an impact during SEW the next week. It was also after this when
Daniel had given a little speech of his own, producing the quote from above.
The Worship Night continued as more songs were
sung, as well as speeches given, by Henderson, and Mr. Ronzheimer. The Seniors
were also given time to reflect and pray by either by themselves, or with
others. It was during this time when many had felt the rest and peace they so
desperately needed, while others were able to amend their relationships with
others and/or God. Later, the Seniors were given the opportunity to share what
they experienced. They were able to end the night on a high note by singing 4
worships songs, and after a few minutes of hugging one another, the Worship
Night that brought rest and healing ended.
