In the early morning of the Good Friday (2 Apr 2021), the church organized a nature walk starting at Lower Peirce Reservoir Park and following a trail which will lead us north, into Thomson Nature Park.
在受难节那日（2021 年 4 月 2 日）的清晨，教会举办了一日步行，从贝雅士蓄水池下段开始，沿着一条路将我们带向北方的汤申自然公园。
Besides enjoying some of the beautiful nature scenes that God created, walking inside the forest early morning is also amazing for our health, both mental and physical. 除了欣赏上帝创造的一些美丽自然风光之外，清晨在森林中散步对我们的身心健康也非常有益。
We explore the nature park in groups of 8. It was the first outdoor event of the year and there are 79 people who signed up for this nature walk. 我们以 8 人为一组在自然公园漫步与探索。这也是教会今年第一次的户外活动，总共有 79 人报名参加。
Walking side by side also provide us a great opportunity to interact with our own church members and getting to know one another better. 每个小组并肩行走也带来了聊天的绝佳机会，让我们与教会的会友和外来的朋友互动，彼此了解。
There were quizzes and landmarks to find to make the nature walk more fun.
在大自然漫步中，也加了一些简单的测验和寻找地标，使活动更有趣。
Journey to the west 西游记
On a side adventure, Deacon Ngiam Keng Suan and his wife reminisce their old romance days fishing at Upper Peirce Reservoir Park. It is located much further to the west from our main route. 当日，严经川执事回想以前常常和太太在贝雅士蓄水池上段公园钓鱼的浪漫时光。蓄水池上段是需要往西的方向走，也不在我们原定的路线。他们还是决定往那边走，冒险的深往西方！
Both of them decided to “go back in time” and venture into Upper Peirce Reservoir Park, thus, unable to “return in time” and miss their lunch! Oh well, finding happiness is key to making your marriage flourish – just as God designed. 😊 严经川夫妇两人决定冒险西游记进入贝雅士蓄水池上段公园，时光倒流 “回到过去”，无法在预定的时间 “回到现实” 因此错过了午餐！但是值得哦，找到幸福婚姻发展的关键，毕竟婚姻是神圣的，愿荣耀归于上帝。 😊

The nature walk was a very successful initiative especially how it was conducted to facilitate fellowship during a pandemic. The whole Mt Carmel XMQ had a good time exercising in the morning and having breakfast. 教会举办自然漫步非常成功，尤其是在疫情期间更加需要促进团契关系。 迦密山完成早上运动后，又一起吃早餐，玩得很开心。

大自然，多美好!
神的创造，多么神奇。
一年一度的大成春游日又如约而至，真的令人兴奋，因为此时的新加坡正是"樱花盛开"季节。
很荣幸，能与照耀柱的同事及佟彦一路同行。
我们相约在碧山公园，一路前行至贝雅士下段的蓄水池，沿途大家欢声笑语，彼此沟通，尽情享受神所赐的美好。
相信，经过这一天的徒步运动，每一个参与的人都能感受到彼此的热情与真诚，但愿在 神的带领下，我们再次相约，但愿 神的呼召和感动在彼此的心里动工。
平安与我们同在。
