Ru-Shi Youth Group 2011

Greetings everyone,

Welcome to Ru-Shi Youth Group 2011 blog.

My name is Andy Lieu, and I am one of the two secretaries in the Ru-Shi Youth Group Committee. This is my first year being part of this committee, however, that does not mean that I don't do anything.

As a secretary, my partner and I are responsible for keeping everyone up-to-date with any events that the Ru-Shi Temple, located in Ottoway, and/or the Ru-Shi Committee has arranged for everyone. Not only that, we are also responsible for making sure that there is a place that we can do these FUN activities with everyone.

Although this is my first year in the committee as a secretary, I have learnt many things. I have learnt to be more independent, more confident in my choices, and being able to voice out opinions to everyone, I have learned to hear what other people want to say. I have learnt to love what I do, and I have learnt to do what I love. After much adapting, I was able to balance out the secretary job, volunteering, work and studying times. It may be busy, but I enjoy what I'm doing, and because I am having a fun, I make sure other people can feel what I feel.

Enough about me...

Weekly, the committee will post blog about the recent class given by the temple's Masters.

We all gather on Friday weekly at 5:30PM.
"Where do we meet?" you may ask.

Well, we all meet at:
University of South Australia (UniSA)
City East
Playford Level 5 Room 33 (P5-33).

Every Friday Dharma Class (FDC), we'll gather together to socialize, play, learn, update, and even meditate! Don't fret, FDC is not on EVERY Friday, we all want our holidays. I'll let all of you know when FDC is on or not.
Everyone's equal and everyone is welcome.
YOU CAN EVEN BRING YOUR FRIENDS IF YOU LIKE!!!

The Dharma Lesson that Master gives is a lesson people can use in everyday life. It's an opportunity that you DON'T want to let it fly past. Don't worry, it's not a "typical lecture" where it's just a one-way conversation. Everyone can learn from him and even he can learn from us.

So, gather your friends, and we'll see you at UniSA in P5-33 on many Friday's.

Yours Faithfully,
Andy Lieu
Secretary of Ru-Shi Youth Group Committee
