Mormon Helping Hands at Pure Life Society, Jalan Puchong, Kuala Lumpur

This is the video made by the sister in our church and published in our church newsroom in Malaysia region. It is a great video clips with the song "Have You Done Any Good?" for the last week service project we had been participated last week at The Pure Life Society.

I love it so much!!!

Kuala Lumpur - Leaders in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia asked church members to look for ways "to do good in the world."

The video highlights a fun day of service by the members from the Kuala Lumpur District of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They helped staff and residents of The Pure Life Society, Jalan Puchong, Kuala Lumpur to prepare and clear areas for a garden walkway project, a vegetable patch, a compost ground and many more projects planned ahead.

Mormon Helping Hands ~ Pure Life Society Service Project

Today is public holiday Awal Muharam (Maal Hijrah). There is a service project for Pure Life Society at Jalan Puchong starting from 9:00am to 1:00pm.

The service project is to help the staff and residents of the Pure Life Society to prepare and clear areas for a garden walkway project, a vegetable patch, a compost ground and some projects planned ahead.

We were there a bit late around 9:15am as we had our Bak-Kut-Teh breakfast nearby Jalan Puchong too, and we headed to the wrong address which is at another service centre.

We had missed the Opening Hymn and Prayer, and the safety briefing too prior to beginning work and the segregation of group in works to be assigned.

We saw all the Elders and Sisters Missionary were there to help too. Some tools on the floor standby to be used. We just put on our gloves and prepare to lend out our helping hands!

Daddy asked Elder Hadley what we can help, Elder Hadley asked us to look for Elder Cane for works need to do.

Then, we were assigned to clear the embedded stones or bricks in the ground. We began clearing rocks. Some members clearing limbs, brush and debris. Some members remove dead branches, debris and fallen leaves from the grounds. All the collected debris were thrown into rubbish bin.

Some members opened some land for garden beds which will be planted with vegetables for use in the kitchen of Pure Life Society where they serve more than 100 people 3 times a day. Vegetables and fruits are a staple in this kitchen.

Daddy, Brother Felix, Elder Loos and Elder Hord helping to do a compost pit. Waste from the kitchen, along with leaves and clippings will be placed here for composting.

We have a break around 11.30am to drink some water and drinks to replenish our energy. And, we continued back our works.

During the works, I met with a sister from Kuala Lumpur branch, Sister Sharon Wong.

I went up and help her on some branches, twigs and banana leaves which needed to be thrown. Then, we have a chat. She had been with the church for almost 20 years. I just told her that, our family from Subang Jaya branch and we just baptized last year October.

Daddy also came over during he brought some drinks for me. Annabelle too, came over. We asked Annabelle to bring drinks for Sister Sharon.

Daddy shared with Sister Sharon on our family testimony on how our family have found our church, and how the Lord bring our family back together after what had happened previously to our family separation. We testified that, we are in Lord’s good hand and it is all His plan and we are so grateful for Him.

She was happy and glad to hear our testimony. We are happy get to know her too.

Around 12:30pm, we have completed the works for the day. While waiting for the staffs and residents of the Pure Life Society preparing our lunch, we have our chat with Brother and Sister Cole too. It is really a good get to know each other function, where we can get to know members from different branches in Kuala Lumpur district.

We have our group photos with Mother Mangalam, the co-founder of The Pure Life Society. We did not stay for the lunch, we left after the works done.

Our family feel happy, that we are able to help people.

Mother Mangalam commented, "You Mormons give me hope. Just look at all you young people doing work for others, gave up holiday to assist those did not know.. You don't just talk Christianity, you live it."

Yes! I am a Mormon and I am proud to be one!

Dinner @ Fish & Co Main Place USJ21 9 Oct 2015

After Mummy fetched both children from Mahkota Tuition Centre, We met Daddy at Main Place USJ21. We have dinner at Fish & Co. as we never try before the food at Fish & Co.

Thus, we have our dinner here. Annabelle was so happy, as the restaurant gave a set of stationery sets and some paper games for the kids dine here. Annabelle made herself a princess crown on her head, she was so excited! I felt so funny looking at her enthusiasm on the gifts that Fish & Co. entertained the kids.

Well after all, it is a good dinner that family can sit down together! Family can be together forever!

Annabelle’s Baptism Day

Annabelle got baptized today at Church, which is 4th October, 4 days after her birthday. It was such a great day to share with family and friends.

We did a few things to prepare for the big day. I did design of the invitation card to the friends and family to invite them to her baptism at the Church. She was pretty happy about the whole deal.

Prior to her baptism, she have been interviewed by our Subang Jaya branch President Chi last Sunday in Church. President Chi just told me that she is ready for it.

I actually was so nervous that Annabelle might not pass the interview, as she was always restless all the time during the Sacrament Meeting. It turned up great!

When the big day come, our family were ready. The baptism ordinance began at 2.30pm.

We were most delighted to see Aunty Jessie, together with Uncle Yeap and her mother came and witnessed Annabelle’s baptism.

Annabelle was ready to go with her Dad, Alvin performed the baptism ordinance in the baptism font.

We were happy when both Brother Richard and Brother Jackie gave their approval on the ordinance.

Annabelle was practicing the baptism in the swimming pool in out home so many time with Alvin. She was glowing with excitement.

After her baptism she was given the gift of the Holy Ghost with all the good Priesthood Brethren, where Elder Dacayanan performed the ordinance.

There were some refreshment after the baptism at the Church, which prepared by the Relief Society sisters. We were so grateful for that!

Eventually, after we were back to our home, we only realise that we were so attached to that moment that we totally forgot about taking photos for her and with her! Oh my!

And I just got this little photo of Annabelle with Brandon!

Annabelle Birthday 1 Oct 2015

We did not celebrate or make it a big one for Annabelle birthday this year. We have dinner out of home. Then, we just bought a small chocolate cake and a candle.

She is ok with this small and simple little celebration, and as long as our family are together. This year, Alvin bought an owl craft pillow for her as birthday gift. Issac was so excited and offered his help to do the craft!

Both were happy with this small celebration!
