Our church's small groups meeting has been in recess since end of last year for the festive season such as Christmas, Chinese New Year, and etc. Now that all the festive celebration is over, it is time to resume the small groups meeting with a pot bless dinner gathering.
The day started with a lovely sunrise.

Braised pork belly and mixed vegetables.
Steamed soft tofu and fried egg omelette.
Pizza, fried noodle and curry puffs.
