Continuity in a New Season
New seasons are exciting and disorienting. We listen to two fresh graduates share what they found from their respective camps.
The Polytechnic Chinese CF (CCF) Fresh Graduates Camp, held at FES from 30 April and 1 May, was a time of reflection, transition, and anticipation. As I stepped into this new chapter of my life, the camp provided me with a much-needed space to pause, reflect, and process the journey ahead.
The speaker sessions and panel discussion changed my perspectives and helped me to understand more about balancing my army, work, and personal life with moral and spiritual integrity. It hit me with added emphasis that living out my faith isn’t just about Sunday worship or cell group, but about the everyday choices I make – in my army bunk, at the workplace, in my family, and my relationships. It’s about reflecting Christ’s love, honesty, and compassion even when it’s challenging or unpopular.
As I reflect on how I will approach this new season in my life, I want to prioritise integrity and Christlikeness in every decision, big or small. Now, I see things that happen in my life as opportunities to grow in character and witness for Christ.
Moving forward, I hope to build a rhythm of prayer, reflection, and accountability – staying rooted in God’s Word and surrounding myself with supportive brothers and sisters. The camp reminded me that while life is full of uncertainties, my identity and direction are secure in Christ. I’m grateful that this experience didn’t just equip me with practical tips, but also anchored me in a deeper understanding and conviction of who I am and Whose I am.

The CCF Combined University Fresh Graduates’ Camp was held from 14 to 17 May at Aloha Loyang. One of the most impactful lessons I took away from the camp was a renewed perspective on what it means to walk with Jesus in the workplace. As I transition from campus life to working life, I’ve found that time and energy are often stretched thin in this new season – especially on days when I need to do overtime. It’s easy to feel unmotivated to prepare for Bible study or serve in ministry like I used to in school.
However, the camp reminded me that even when circumstances can’t be changed – like being unable to leave a difficult job – my identity in Christ remains unchanged. I am still called to live as Christ did, especially in environments where He is not known. That doesn’t mean striving for perfection but choosing daily to reflect His character in the way I speak, work, and treat others.
This shift in perspective has encouraged me to see my workplace not as a limitation, but as a mission field. In this new season, I want to be intentional in sowing seeds of the gospel by exemplifying the character of Christ in a Christless society. My prayer is that through this, others might begin to see the reason for the hope I have in Christ.
