YowCH & Grace

This year, our church has no Church Camp. Instead, we have camps based on the age-groups. Grace and YowCH signed up the the Mid-lifers’ Camp, and Joseph and Samuel tagged along. The camp is in Batam, from 15 Jun (Sat) to 17 Jun (Mon).
Here’s our luggage, with two bags and one guitar for the church worship.
