Once again it's Father's Day in Malaysia. Hotels, restaurants and pubs advertised 'Father's Day Special" and I must say, doing a roaring trade. Church today, the children's group, the ladies' group and the Elektos Youth put up special items all giving tribute to fathers. I think it's very significant that the church got some of youth to share the life and sacrifices of their fathers - just ordinary day to day events - though not earth shattering, reflected the important roles their fathers played in their lives.
The most touching and creative item was from the Elektos Youth. They made a video presentation of a father's struggles, pain and joy in bringing up his daughter - almost like the video presentation made by Meng How and Serene's O2 group. (The scenes reminded me of our sweet-sour times with our children). The most moving part was when the father after the daughter got married, sat at home and waited for the phone call..... I shed copious tears towards the second part of the presentation.

This year the fathers were all presented with fruit cupcake. The phone is a reminder of the precious link to our loved ones far away.HAPPY FATHER'S DAY
