MAD Project

On October 15, 2010, I went to the International Coastal Cleanup as my first service trip. I was an meaningful experience for it was my first time cleaning trash in a public area. I could not believe how much trash there was on such a small beach. The more trash discovered, the more sad I felt, that God's creation is ruined by the selfish works of man. God intended man to take care of his creation, but instead, we destroyed the beautiful environment. Therefore, this is one of the reasons that I want to make a difference.



On November 3rd, 10th 2010 and January 12th 2011 all three of my service trips, I went to Shatin Wai Baptist Lui Ming Choi Primary School. My task was to interview the students in english and help them prepare for F1 oral interview. I also had a group discussion to know more about them.

Throughout the service I have learnt the joy of being able to help others. It is a great blessing to be able to use my ability that God has given me to make a difference in other people's lives.


Interviewing students younger than me, gave me an authority to give constructive criticism and uplifting comments about their conduct. It also has given me a chance to improve my communication skills. I can easily find topics to chat and elaborate with people that I'm not familiar with.

Finally, I hope I can continue serving others and make a difference in people's lives because it becomes an unforgettable experience.
