YF Hotpot with h2o, Amazing Race and more!

just want to say again how amazing Discipleship Week was (for me at least ;). it was a lot of hours together, and early mornings, but i think it was wayyy more than worth it. it was great to spend so much time together (i really mean it), it's something that's hard to do once school starts but it was refreshing and edifying to my faith (even teaching it). i hope it was great for your faith too (which was the whole point), lots of thanks also to james who taught 1 out of the 5 days, it's a lot of work even to do one day of discipleship week! thanks james! also thank all of you for such an awesome summer (my fav summer!) we had the mission trip, sharings, baptisms, YF room, hanging out, bowling and discipleship week! please, please remember to take what you have learned back to school with you as well!

this friday (29th) will be the last YF of the summer, jeremy and jeff suggested that the YF should do a hotpot together, (or cantonese know it as da been lo, or fuo guo if you are mandarin) but i love it!!! it's so delicious! so this friday we will be joined by h2o and hotpot! we DO need more hotpots though (stove, pot and gas), so if you have a set to bring, please let me know and bring it. also bring some food that you want to eat as well (if you do not bring food, please bring $7 to help cover the costs). Hot pot is a really great time because it's not just eating but the fun of being to together and talking! as some of you may be away for the labor day weekend, please let me know that you are coming so we can prepare the quantity of pots and food ASAP!

NEXT saturday (sept.6) will be the AMAZING RACE 5, i wasn't sure about doing it because its really tiring especially between Discipleship Week and the Fall Retreat and starting sunday school again, but it's back because of popular demand ;) so invite your friends, book the saturday off work, and join our YF kickoff event! sunday school is supposed to start on sept. 7th too.

ALSO, our YF fall retreat is coming up for Oct 17-19th!!! so book those dates on your calendar and tell work "yo, i'm not coming in because of the YF fall retreat, it's way cooler, talk to josh if you've got a problem." or something like that! it's at gracefield in quebec, and i've heard some really good things about it! woah, everything is coming up soon so i better get back to planning everything.
