Awhile ago , it was somewhat a random and impromptu thought of just get a few ppl and head down to KL… Feed and cut the homeless.

Manage to gather few people , Min Yang , Khim Hai , Vincent Cheng , Phoebe Wong and some friends .

Along the way we met a lady who’s in pain and having a bad fever. Thank God we have a nurse in our team. She manage to check and get her some panadols. That night , our friend Dr Madhu and his team rushed to see her…

Thank God for amazing people like Phoebe and Dr Madhu.           

These boy here is Panjunk. That’s his FB name .. He’s struggling with various health issue. When we met him , he was high in glue addiction . It was kinda scary at first to offer them a haircut but if this is what it takes to go into their life …transformation begin there and then.

Jacky Stinson

A guy named Jacky came all the way from singapore to learn barbering from me. 

   

  

 
I thought it was good to instill some different kind of “training”.

Training for the soul. 

So I brought him to few places.

Charis Old Folks Home in Mantin.

Jacky and me have some similiar background . We both have psoriasis skin issue and our dad passed away in recent years. It’s good to be a brother a mentor to him….Cus there’s so much we both can talked about. Bringing him here and giving haircuts to some of the old folks does feel like giving haircuts to our old man.

Then I brought him to meet out street friends.

For the first time , he sees the dark side of KL. Here we met our friend , Panjang , Joe and Ani. They’re still high on drug (glue) while we were cutting their hair. It wasn’t easy for us as it’s risky but we went ahead and strike a conversation with them and try to find out more.

When we see them somehow around our age, it’s disappointing , sad and heartache at the same time.

At the end of the day, I just want to share more than just my barbering and hairdressing skill, I want to be able to Inspire and share the love of my Daddy in heaven and to bring Heaven to earth… To some , living on earth may be like hell.

After we end our haircut session, Jacky hop into my car and break down in tears. Manly tears.

 It was a mixed feeling experiencing the dark side of this city . Talking and cutting hair with the homeless , drug addicted young people . It wasn’t easy to bring a change to them but we believe in one step at a time. It first begin with building a relationship.

Jacky quoted …

Cutting hair doesn’t change them, it changed me.

My goal  accomplished.
