A Visit to Old Folks Homes...

My church organized a trip to visit the old folks at some Old Folks Homes nearby. There were quite a number of us that went. But there were a few MYF'ers that went. Where did they all go? If I'm not mistaken, there were 3 only that went. MYF'ers, we also need to make time to visit these people. They are being forgotten by society... Do you like being forgotten by people? The church only organizes to trips to these homes a year. Making time for two days in a year is too much?
Pokok Sena Old Folks Home...
This was the first old folks home we visited. There were about 19 old people there including the caretaker.
The worship team...
The old folks...
Bethel Hill Old Folk's Home...
This was the second. There were about 9 old folks here including the caretaker.
The old folks...
The group that went...
I'm not in the group picture, cause I was taking it. I pity all these old people. Here they are in the outskirts of the city, being forgotten by people. Why did their children throw them in such places? And also, why don't we MYF'ers organize like a spring cleaning for them? It would be something meaningful.

Just reflect on this!
Christmas = caroling
Christmas = gifts
Christmas = party
Christmas =fun
Christmas = I
Christmas is not THEM
Christmas is definitely not old folks
Christmas is definitely not orphan
What difference can it make?
They will be still orphan after the visit
They will be still old folks after the visit
Why bother?

Dear Prorogue,
Read my comment again...slowly and digest it...it start with reflect on this!!!!......Its a reactions to Daniel thoughtful comment"But there were a few MYF'ers that went. Where did they all go?

.........Do reflect....
It is always "what is in for ME' attitude....so old folks/orphan take the back seat when we are celebrating.....ME too busy....caroling...party....many important tasks....WHY BOTHER?
Please ponder and digest the comment again. Thank you. God Bless you
