MONTH OF LENT

This coming Wednesday 17th February 2010, is the marking of the month of Lent in Christian Calendar.  There will be a service at St. Columba church at 7:30 p.m.  It is believe that Ash Wednesday is one of the two Fasting days, the other is Good Friday.  We will have one full meal for the day with no meat, other Fridays are days of abstinence.  There will be Fast & Pray Seminar on 20th February 2010 held at St' Columba parish hall.  A one day seminar from 9:00 a.m till 3:00 p.m. It will be conducted in bilingual (English & Iban).

During this month of Lent, Christians are expect to observe the meaning of fasting, praying and self-reflection of our christian faith.  Last Sunday 14th Feb. 2010, Rev. Alfred Damu also stressed that we at St' Columba should change our mindset as this year the theme is "Transformation" of mindset as in Romans 12:2 "Do not conform any longer to thr pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will."

Example: "Adat" kitai iban, we should no longer apply that in our daily life; as we have receive a "new life" as christian where we have been batipsed and received Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour.  My personal opinion on "adat" kitai iban, being a new generation grew up in urban surrondings, we must know the existence of our parentage "adat", we can have a sound knowledge of it, though I/we may not apply it to my/our daily life now or in the near future.  I believe only in One Living God, no other gods is greater than our Heavenly Father who gave his one and only son Jesus Christ who die for our sins. 

ieg would like to wish every Christian to observe the month of Lent, lets us fast, pray and get closer to God and may our Heavenly Father forgive our wrongdoings and continue to bless us with good health, life and true happiness on earth. Amen.

1st DAY CNY VISITING - 14TH FEB. 2010

As long as I can remember living in S'wak visiting from house to house to our relatives/neighbours/friends during festives seasons such as CNY/Gawai Dayak/Hari Raya/Deepavali/Christmas is a common tradition or practise culture being uphold by S'wakian which our present Prime Minister has so called it as "1M'sia Concept".
During these festive seasons, relatives, friends will take this opportunity to celebrate together to foster a close relationship, unity and harmony among the ethnics of S'wak which we S'wakian are well aware of the existence of different races, cultures and beliefs living together be it at workplace or our neighbourhood. Inter-marragies are also very common among the ethnics of S'wak; so it is not surprise if you see an iban family origin celebrating either Hari Raya or CNY. Auk, ngenang ke ngabang, tiap taun nadai kala di kelaung ke these two families kami sebilik.
Morning, 1st day of CNY, me & family visit our longtime friend (Bong Siew Long) who hails from Lubok Antu, who has been residing in Miri many years ago. Some pictures taken.

Malam kira kol 7 pm, kami ngabang ngagai rumah Josetina pangkat "aunty" aku ba Lutong (rumah mentua iya). Aunty Jos kawin enggau bangsa cina, 1st day CNY sigi endO kala miss kena invite iya makai malam ke rumah mentua iya. Parents in-law iya very friendly, biasa aja meda pengabang bala iban datai ke rumah, buat mcm rumah sendiri ko sda iya. hahahaha Some pictures taken.
Kira kol 9 mlm kami sebilik mulai kediri tambah mega my little nephew udah tinduk jenak. Ti CNY bala nembiak meh paling happy (ngasai kediri kelia, gaga amat bulih angpow); bala sda ke tuai maia tu meh maia sda ulih betemu begulai berandau nanya ke berita bala pangan, bala kaban diri; sambil ngirup, makai begulai enggau pangan diri..ti enda maia tu, kemaia agik? Ti enda maia tu nyau beribun ke bala uchu ga ko sda mak, auntyx2, pangkat inikx2! Ti umur panjai, betemu baru ga ba taunx2 ka datai.
