YF Bible study this Friday
i know you are all really busy with exams and are in crunch mode right now, but it was encouraging to see many of you take a break and come out to show your support for this year's relay for life as we joined ling and friends. it was great to hear from michael and neva during sunday school in preparation for the trip. the worship, crafts, games, testimonies, devotions, testimonies and supplies are almost all ready - please continue to pray for our mission trip to northern quebec next week.
speaking of trip preparations. this week for YF we will have our last devotion sharings from natasha, valerie and jennifer on how Christ has exemplified the fruits of the Spirit and how the fruits can be lived out at home. afterwards, we will continue our study of acts chapters 19 and 20. so please bring your Bibles as we continue to discuss the fruits of the Spirit and the book of acts.
things to keep in mind, very soon we hope to start renovation work on our youth room. currently, uncle roger (yip) has been really awesome about helping and is even drafting floor plans for the renovation and we are hoping that we (youth) will be able to work with some adults/h2o in the major renovation of the room in july so that we can use it for our events and spend discipleship week in the room! so get ready with your paint and decoration ideas! it'll be really awesome to have our own space to make our own with couches and all!
let me know how you've been doing as well.
we'll pray for you guys during your exams this week, i've heard from a few of you that you have more than one on the same day too!
for those on the mission team, please meet a little earlier (7) for prayer
see you on friday!
