I had a life changing experience during my confirmation camp in College General. During this camp, all the sessions taught me a lot of different things. Some opened my eyes and my heart to different possibilities. But the best part about this camp was to be in the place with loads of history on our Malaysian church and to be in the place where many of our current and previous parish priests had studied.

The tour around the museum, the art gallery and the chapel were totally amazing. Imagine walking on the ground where many great saints had walked. To be able to see all the things used then and how technology has evolved and new invention had taken the place of old. In the art gallery, the artist was able to capture the life of Jesus in a Malaysian point of view was very interesting. Who would have thought of that!

The greatest part of all was to see the ancient relics of the saints especially St. Jude’s. I felt very close to the saints then. The different rooms told a different story and that was unique. The books and the priest’s attire were awesome. Having being told and reading about the early saints who were martyred I thanked God in my heart for the gift of each and every one of them. It was also very good to be able to see some familiar faces such as Fr Naden, Fr Clarence, Fr Amala…etc looking very young and handsome.

The view was breathtaking and I felt totally lucky for having had both my first Holy Communion Camp as well as my Confirmation Camp here.
All in all this was the perfect place for the camp. This is the Year of the Priest, so hopefully this trip has influenced many of my guy friends to join the priesthood. Thank you C.G for this experience and a special thanks to my dearest Bro Kevin for making all these possible.
