Running diary of the big day!
On 25th September morning, our group members have been departed to the supermarket nearby the campus to buy some daily used, food and stationeries before we paid our visit to Agape Family. After that, it took about an hour time for us to reach safely at the destination. When we reached there, I saw the community seemed like waiting for us with surprising sight. There are around 16 of them which can be subdivided into 15 boys and a girl. At the moment I stepped in the home, I had a feeling that I visited to the camp of national service because most of the friends there are having shaven head. We considered them as new friends because they are not children that stayed in the orphanage home. Instead, they are just a few years old younger than us.
We greeted the friends there and handed over the stuffs that we brought to the volunteer worker, Winnie. The ice-breaking session started by introducing each other’s name and hometown. I could not really remember their names as they just told the short form of their name instead of full name. I am worried with that because they did not addressing each other by proper name as name plays a significant role in every individual’s life on how people treasure each other. In order to know each other more, we played personality-guessing game by observing physical outlook among us. At first they were blur with our instructions and we had to repeat it for a few times only they could understand. Patience is needed to teach them. I am glad that there is someone who is as kind as the person incharge of the home to set up this home and assist the teenagers to back to the right path.
During the gaming session, a few members and I got the chance to talk about the organization and background of the home with Winnie. From there, I felt a bit upset because before entered the home, the friends there were wasting their youth time involving in vandalism or having discipline problem. Some of them even came from broken family. The Agape Family is a home that provides them shelter. They have home-schooling in which tuition teachers are offered to teach them. They also learn to be independent in taking care of their life. At the moment, I was thinking how lucky I am to have a complete family and got a lot of people who love me. At the same time, I was influenced by the laughter from those friends who are playing games. It impressed me because they enjoyed the games that we planned. Sincerely, I hope that they can always having such laughter and joy in their life.
Next, we continued with sharing session. It was a bit shock that they did not know what is their dream when we requested. Life is directionless without dreams and ambitions. So we guided them with some advisory words to encourage them not to give up themselves regardless how poor the situation is. In the session, I found out that they are talented. They know how to cook and playing musical instrument. Winnie told us that they prepared their daily meals on their own. What a surprise for me! A boy name “Zhao” is recognized as the cooker by his friends. I learnt that strong friendship is a must throughout a person’s life especially when you are in suffering. They help each other when doing cleanliness of the home and cooking. Apart from that, singing session is the climax of the trip. We sang a few songs with piano and guitars as background music which are played by them. Everyone is fully immersed into the cheerful melodious. Before we back, they expressed their gratefulness by thanking us to visit them. It was a touching instant to me because the way they thank us is so sincere.
What they need is love and care instead of material needs. May God bless them always and guide them back to the correct path in their life. Overall, our moral field-trip is a great success. Our efforts are converted into infinite happiness. The memory will last long in my mind. If I were given a second chance, I would choose to visit to this place again.
