Abraham and I had the pleasure/honour/privilege of meeting Rev Wee at his office today!
He shared his views about Ortabo:
Pros:
- It's a youth initiated project
- Something came out of TRACKERS
- It's a simple concept that's easy to grasp
- It involves everyone from young to old from the church
Cons:
- The end date is around Christmas - a lot of events like ortabo will be going on concurrently as well, therefore they may be a clash of events
- Identifying the children from lower income families may be insensitive as some families may be embarrassed
He also mentioned that we should talk to the local churches for help instead of going straight to TRAC because it is the local churches that can do more (funding, publicity, logistics, manpower) for us. We will be speaking to the leaders in our respective churches first before making anymore decisions.
The main committee will also be meeting up to discuss issues raised prior to this meeting with Rev Wee.
Please pray for guidance from above to the direction that He wants us to head and for good communication among the members in the main committee.
Recruitment for sub committees has been pushed back to a later date, it's not starting from 3rd May anymore. Further notices will be given.
However if you wish you state interest or have any questions, you can call or sms through myself @ 98485928 or by sending a email to ortabo@gmail.com.
Thank You for your prayers and support!
Jesslyn.
