YF Nehemiah Bible study this Friday, picnic Saturday

It was a great weekend to be able to fellowship together, YF on Friday, soccer on saturday, YF missions sharing on Sunday and being able to have supper with a lot of you for Helen's birthday at Montana's. The congregation has responded incredibly to the YF missions sharing and were really encouraged, adults of all ages said that your sharing made them feel like they wished they could have been there too. If you were unable to go to Ouje this year, please prayerfully consider going to Ouje next year, it's a continual ministry and presence that we want to keep in Ouje each summer! I've received 7 of the 12 written sharings so far, please continue on those :).

This Friday (17th, 7:30pm at church) we will be continuing our study on Godly leadership from the book of Nehemiah.
We are trying to wrap up Nehemiah so we can begin a new study in the fall (Romans, a real important book for believers to know!). We will be studying chapters 7 and 8 on Friday so please come prepared and bring your Bibles and any refreshments you would like :) The next day (18th) is our church picnic, please come with your families as Allan, Luke and Helen will show their obedience to Christ through baptism! Get together your cards and encouragements and more importantly, your commitment to pray for each other and strengthen those you fellowship with.

We also want to spend the summer getting to know our grade 8 graduates (names in e-mail)

Our camping trip along with other details are coming up quick!
