SEW's Kick-Off Worship Night

Natasha Palanivel

Dalat students gathered on Tuesday night for an amazing time of worship and prayer stations lead by seniors to kick off SEW.

On the 11th of September, Dalat students shuffled into the Harbour Hall and found, to their surprise, that the chairs had been removed! Students chatted and sat on the floor while waiting for the worship night to begin. As the lights dimmed, and the music began to play, students turned their attention towards God, and the worship team lead the students in a beautiful time of worship.

Shannon Frohlich shared an excellent testimony on how she obeyed God, which set up the atmosphere for the next part of the worship night. The spiritual development class of Dalat had come up with a few stations that students could visit to either receive prayer or just reflect on their faith. Different seniors were in charge of the stations and were available to pray for the underclassmen. It was definitely a great opportunity for the senior class to reach out to the underclassmen.

It was amazing to see students praying for one another as the spirit moved that night. There were students in tears before God, and it was evident that the presence of God was there. When asked what her highlight was from the worship night, Shannon Frohlich (12) replied, “My highlight was definitely seeing how many students prayed for each other—how many students put aside their preconceptions about others and demonstrated God’s love by finding courage to give them a word or pray for them. I was at the back of the room, and as I looked around Harbour Hall, all I could see was students either worshipping God, confessing to a friend, going through a station, or praying. Lots of tears were shed, and people definitely experienced God!”

The worship night truly was a great way to kick off SEW.

DINGBAT DALAT STUDENT SPENDS PRECIOUS TIME CONJURING UP SELF-REFERENTIAL SENIOR SCRIBBLE RATHER THAN GATHERING LEGITIMATE WORK

Yusoof Monawvil PENANG, MA - As the deadline drew near and the stars aligned in the night sky above the majestic waters of the Strait of Malacca, one particular Dalat student—Yusoof Monawvil (12), despite a plethora of school events to select and report on—opted instead to spend a remarkably well-wasted 24 minutes staring at a blank Google Docs page, fruitlessly drawing up and shooting down brainstormed ideas.  In a moment of sheer and undeniable epiphany, Monawvil deemed it only fitting to self-referentially satirize his own ingrained incompetence and dingbattery. Commenting on the flash of insight, Monawvil quoted himself, saying: “It all just kinda made sense. I went on DISCourse to look at the little rubric thing Ms. Grad and Mr. Hieber posted, and I checked if I was following all of the guidelines... And I technically am/was; [N]ot like there’s any specific direktive [sic] prohibiting self-quoting.”  In a turn of events, Monawvil did come to find his self-quoting en...

“I Miss Her” by Nikhil Pillay

While most people had a fun week for mid-semester break, whether it was spent with family, or with friends on impact trips, no one had a more emotionally confusing week than Judson Kenneth Robert Nosker (12).  In the light of recent events, Judson, despite all odds, had gotten in a relationship with one of his classmates, and as the break started, he had started to spend a lot of time with her. While with her, he started to experience a new level of joy and completeness that he had never felt before. In the words of Judson Nosker, “The first half of the break was good, but the rest of it was horrible.”  The reason for such a quote and the roller coaster of emotion was because half way through the break, disaster had struck. Judson’s girlfriend had gone on a trip with her family to Thailand, leaving Judson all alone. For the rest of the week, Judson was in a state of longing for her presence.  His friends have reported numerous occasions when Judson would be sitting with t...
