槟城庄氏四美堂/庄严同宗会

Ch'ng Si Bee Tong, Penang

On 3rd of October, I drove my mum to Kimberly Street and attended a prayer ceremony at Ch'ng Si Bee Tong (Clan Association for 庄). This was my 1st time after joining the association for 3 years+ as life member attending their Ancestor Worship on 15th of 8th month of Lunar Calendar.

After prayer, we were searching for my ancestors from the Ancestral Tablets. Finally we both managed to find my grandparents and great-grandparents too. Actually, there was a list as as shown above for us to find but we only realized after a few minutes later.

No friends I have in this association actually. All the "active" members in a clan association usually comes form older generation group, Uncles and Aunties. Perhaps, I'm the youngest member? After this prayer, I was invited to host their dinner a week after that as an Emcee. This one I sincerely need to thank the friends who recommended me to the Hon Secretary or else I wont be so fortunate meeting up with a group of uncles and aunties. I guess from now on, I'm no longer able to run off their any activities. They will surely call me to participate in any activity organised by the association. OMG........
