Little Things That Matter ....

Marriage is considered a leap of faith and one of great milestones in someone's life.
So we took it seriously, we searched our vendors thoroughly, comparing the prices, the qualities, the reviews from the forum.

We chose our theme to be white, champagne and lime green.
So from our wedding invitation cards, souvenirs, church mass booklet and other accessories, we use these color theme.

Our wedding invitation cards was designed by my brother and we printed them out in Jakarta. We invited almost 350 people in total.
Since we met because of music, we used piano and flower to symbolise our first meeting on the front cover and our courtship favourite song lyric "Faithfully" as back cover.





Besides, my brother also helped to design and print the church mass booklet. We chose the reading and songs ourselves with Father's approval.
Our first reading was from John 15, I Am The Vine and You Are The Branches. This reading reminds us to always abide in God so that our life always be fruitful and become blessings to other people surrounding 
Our second reading was from Ephesian 5, Submission in the Christian Household.
The reading advises us how to become a Godly husband and wife.



In addition, my mom helped to search and purchase the bible, wedding rosary and wedding candles in Semarang that would be blessed during the mass and used as a reminder to always put God first in everything especially our family life.


Our souvenir was a towel embroidered our name and the date of our wedding. We chose towel for practical reason since everyone was able to use it and remembered our big day.
My mom also helped to source for them at Semarang.

As for me and my house will serve you Lord

Finally, I’ve joined the boys in serving at the Eucharist. It’s not my time, but His time. Two of the communion ministers were unable to serve on Sunday morning and requested to move to the Saturday sunset Mass. This left the group leader looking for replacements — and he thought of me, knowing that my hubby has been serving at Mass for 10 years. I said “yes” to the invitation, and so began my journey: the commissioning Mass on 3rd August, a Day of Recollection on 9th August, and my very first duty on 10th August. It is such a privilege to offer Jesus, in the Body of Christ, to His sheep. As I looked into the eyes of each parishioner receiving the Body of Christ, I saw so many different expressions. My prayer is that this gift of the Body of Christ will strengthen them in their journey, whatever season of life they are in. 

What to do when you don't know what to do

I’ve been absent from writing the blog for quite a while, as I felt there wasn’t any story worth sharing. But today, I want to share something that happened in August. For some time, I had been waiting and praying, asking God to show me whether I should persevere with this winter rental business. I often felt that all my efforts were in vain, and I had reached the end of my wits, unsure of what else to do. In my prayer, I asked God specifically for a sign: if there was even just one try-on appointment in August, it would mean that He still blesses this business and that it remains aligned with His plan. That very afternoon, I suddenly received a WhatsApp message from a man who wanted to arrange a try-on session for the next day. I replied quickly, asking for details — and to my surprise, he said 10 adults were traveling together! I immediately told my husband, though I also explained that we didn’t have enough stock for such a large group. My husband encouraged me to call and explain t...
