So since many of our readers have been complaining that we TDDD have not updated our blog at all for quite a long time. And we don't blame you. It's The DAILY Ding Dongs for crying out loud. We're supposed to be like the CLGC Ryan Seacrest and Guiliana Rancic on E! News. So right now, we are going to post a post about CLGC and how it has changed since the very beginning.
Here from CLGC's very own website, [www.clgcpj.org] on the "History" part it says:-
The church started with a handful of believers in 1985. The first Sunday service was held on January 13 at the reception area of a doctor's clinic at the Taman Tun Dr. Ismail town centre. From there, the church moved to several locations in Petaling Jaya. We have had services at Section 13, SS2, Hilton Hotel, NPC Hotel and the former Widuri Pine Club in Taman Tun Dr. Ismail.
Isn't that cool?? We TDDD are so happy we settled here at Kompleks Kemajuan in Section 19. Although parking is sometimes a trouble with RM3 to park inside, we have to agree that our present church's place is absolutely fine.
Then and Now:
We don't think we can remember the other places at the hotels and clubs as we'd have been young so we shall just say what we can. The leather sofas used to be across the carpeted floor from the entrance/exit of CLGC, right at the end. Junior Church was at the other end at the right. The information counter used to be where the sofas are now and the auditorium doors used to be in front of them. The walls used to be a boring light blue and the church's name used to be CLC [Just Christian Life Center].
We remember last time when we were younger [Eep was like.. sixish and Jen was eightish], Friday night's FNS was always in the auditorium and before the night services started, we would have Sunday school. Well, actually.. more like Friday Night school. We'd sit on the red or green or yellow plastic chairs [Which I think we'll break if we sit on right now;P] and do activities on the wooden blue IKEA tables.
The REAL Sunday schools used to be different too. The kids were arranged in their classes from age to age. 3 to 5, 6 to 8, 9 to 11, 11 to 12. Probably something like that. We'd do again the activity papers on the long tables you now see used for camp registrations and stuff outside the auditorium.
Haha, we'd bring our notebooks and pencil cases with mechanical pencils inside in our bags and sit down and listen to the teacher talk and talk and draw on the white board. The classes used to be pretty boring, in other words.
Church camps:
One of the church camps Eep remembers is this place with wooden houses around. There was grass all over and we'd all sit in this big "cafeteria" and munch on toast and eggs and Eep would drink her usual hot Milo. And sometimes, during some of the church camps, Eep would sleepover in Jen's room in the hotel. That was boring too because Eep was always sleepy and went straight to sleep every time. Oh my gosh, we practically cannot wait for 09's church camp!!! Yippee!! Weeeeeeeeee!!!
Youth:
Hahahahahahaha. Desmond and Zech and Sian I and Sian Huey and Jude and Caryna and Chloe and Joshua and all the other loons were the youth and they'd go to the youth camps and leave us young losers at church:( hahas. Ooh, and sometimes Jen and Jenna would grow old enough to go to their very first kid's camp and Eep [who was still tiny tiny tiny] would sadly look at them leave with their bags and stuff. :( :( :( :(
Now can you believe it that Sian I and the other people are young adults and we are slowly growing to becoming the youth?! And very soon we'll be just like them.
love,
TDDD
PS: Eep wishes we never have to grow and we can just be young and energetic and not be oooold with work and money and car petrol.
