Joy in the Garden, again

It all started with a small vision of God that the member of Cinnamon Home Fellowship of Full Gospel Assembly to visit a charity home or organisation in time of festive.  The search of home began and then God directed us to Joy Garden.  While we were there for the first time, we met Ling of Hosanna Home Fellowship, was there visiting friends.  Since then Hosanna has approached Cinnamon for a joint visit to Joy Garden if there is such an opportunity.

If there is will, there is a way.One of “Cinnamonites” received a blessed gift from God – RM1,300 cash vouchers of Metrojaya and JUSCO.  Here comes the divine opportunity from God.  Cinnamon approached Hosanna to kick-start the joint visit to Joy Garden – the date has since then fixed on Monday, March 9, 2009.

Products to Joy Garden

We arrived at Joy Garden between 10am to 10:30am.  The setup of food, praise and worship and products were done in less than 15 minutes with the help of Joy Garden folks, “Cinnamonites” and members of Hosanna.

Once opening prayer by Poh Beng completed, the praise and worship was led by Hoch, accompanied by Rosemary and guitarist that I forgot to introduce myself to.  :-)

Ling did the grace and prayer for the food and bon apetit.  The last trip we had Hainanese Chicken Rice, by chef Lor.  This time we have chef Rosemary with yam cake, chocolate cake, fried noodle, Hong Kong porridge and curry chicken.  Off course, chef Lor and Agnes also brought along the chicken.

Some of the feedback and comments from the folks at Joy Garden:-

“God has answered our prayers after the first visit before Chinese New Year.  We asked God to bring all of you back again.  We did not know that God answered His prayer this soon!”

“God bless the good works that you have done,”

“Thank you for bringing the tasty food!  You remember that we like chicken, you brought them again!”

“We are quiet, lonely and seldom have visitors.  Some of us can’t do anything ourselves – blind, old age, mentally challenge….”
