VESAK CELEBRATION IN PRISON 20 MAY (SAT)

Hearty notes from our Prison experience
Thanks May for your generous lunch dana and making all the necessary tedious arrangements – pre and during the prison visits. We ask your forgiveness for stressing you out at times.

Thank you August for spending your special birthday with us. Also thanks Mal for your extra equipment, cabling & mikes to make sure we had a better sound system and bass then last Sunday.

And finally, thanks to everyone for contributing your effort, time, singing voices and impromptu acting abilities (especially newly discovered talent Bee Yee and Tracy) over the last 2 weekends to provide some cheer for the inmates.

So we hope to continue our get-togethers – the next one being THIS SUNDAY, at 1.30pm. We have to go through the songs for both of Ajahn Brahm’s talks on May 30 & 31, 7pm. Pls let me know if you can’t make it for the talks or rehearsal.

Metta, Ai Ling

Hmm. thought i sent out a message but no record in hotmail so here goes again, pardon me if it sounds repetitive to you.Thank you guys for giving me a chance to visit the prisons. what little i did on Saturday made me feel a little like an angel. Glad to have known you guys, the bigger angels.I'm quite sure we provided good entertainment and uplifted their spirits. Thanks for being great people. Thanks for the cheerfulness and fun-loving kindness. In different ways you guys have played angel to the little devil me.

Hi May
Thanks for coordinating all the prison visits and even allowing us to spread cheer to the prisoners, especially handling the tough clearance portion with so much efficiency! Looking forward to performing for the folks there again! Cheers, Aug

Morning All,
WELL DONE ONCE AGAIN EVERYONE. I think we are getting better and better. What a splendid performance in such a condition with no rehersal.
Thank you all once again for spending one whole day in two different prisons on a beautiful Saturday. Esp to our dear wonderful August, hope the rest of the evening was much more eventful and interesting......
Its a truly a great experience for me as this is also my first visit to Sembawang DRC and TMP. My regular stops are Cluster A and CWP. I was pretty shocked that there were so many of them in Sembawang DRC. And that place has got a nice stage too. I think we should go there, while its still there, for our CNY performance. I think KBC (Kaki Bukit Centre) will be another great place for us to go.
Just for everyone infor, all other prisons will be moved to Changi. By then, there will be Cluster A, Cluster B, Cluster C....... Like a big resort yah!
YES YES August, we should have more of these gatherings now that we get to know each other better since our 3 nights concert. You are right about one thing, if not for the rain, we would not have spent another 2 hours together in prison cafeteria.
I've got very good feedback from all the counsellors, even Ven Sumana said that we were full of energy and it was the inmates good karma to have us performing for them. He enjoyed the 4 Wives very much.
MAY ALL BE WELL, HAPPY AND HEALTHY and keep up the good work...
See you all real soon, May
