Imagine.Imagine coming to school and being greeted by the traffic police; namely your own caregroup members.
Imagine them smirking at you.
Imagine standing in the middle of the hardcourt, and all around you are people doing their morning QT.
Imagine the head of the student council saying,"Five minutes left before assembly starts. Get on with your QT."
Imagine people having worship from one end of the hardcourt to the other end.
Imagine walking up the stairs and seeing your cg member. You stopped to talk and promptly lost track of time.
Imagine being bored silly in class, and seeing your cg member walking past made you smile.
Imagine walking down the corridor to the canteen, and you are greeted by your cg members with their different recess groups.
Imagine then, the knowing smiles.
Imagine the flung open doors at the end of the school day, and people rushing to their cg destination.
Imagine your CL asking, "Hey, can we combine games today?"
Imagine looking across to the special room area, and seeing all the different banners promoting different cgs' MCG.
Imagine having praise and worship at the roof top directly opposite the third floor study block.
Imagine having a YHope study group.
Imagine the caregroup joining the school events, as a separate entity other than the identity we have in our class and house.
Imagine close friends from every batch.
Imagine having someone coming up to you, and asking if she can come to Hope, cos she's heard so much about it.
Imagine celebrating birthdays, with different ideas but one common theme, 'God's beloved.'
Imagine having rugby, captain's ball, badminton, hockey, floorball, netball, volleyball, soccer, basketball matches.
Imagine Anagram, or our own band performing in the Auditorium.
Imagine the caregroup being the influential people in school.
Imagine. The possibilities. You are part of the school, but you belong to an organization much bigger than that. You belong to this company called the Kingdom of God.
Now imagine with me,
seventeen people laughing, joking, sharing lives and food together, reaching out like never before. are you in, or are you out?
holding on to you.
