JS had a thank you dinner at the Malacqa Nyonya Restaurant
in Subang for its helpers, workers and volunteers and a total of 10 people
turned up – the 3 co-founders Lian See, Sanice and Mary Anne while the others
included Jayne Loh ( amcorp volunteer), Sally Lui party helper, Yun (lorry
driver), Suhaibah (JS worker) Normala (JS volunteer), Adrian (sewing tutor and
volunteer van driver) and Megan (trainee).
While the food was disappointing, the spirit that enveloped
the venue was lively and fun. The 3 co-founders took the opportunity to thank
the helpers for their dedication, urging them to forgive and forget slights and
insults, to work willingly to impact the poor and the needy and more
importantly, to always be motivated by love so that God’s blessings will flow
readily into their own lives.
After that, the helpers surprised Lian See and Sanice with a
belated birthday gift each – a set of pewter fruit picks for Lian See and a
fat, jolly, golden piggy for Sanice! For both co-founders, it was a simple gesture
of TQ from a deeply appreciative pool of helpers and volunteers. To all of them
and those others who could not make it , we salute you folks for your
willingness to avail yourselves to the cause of poor single parents – as Sanice
says “Let’s all keep the flag flying till the end of our days!” Amen to that!
