YF Where's Waldo this Saturday! Fall Retreat forms!

Hope you've had a good first day back at classes (some of you are having your second day today). Once again, thanks to the Ma family for opening up their home for us and for everyone that brought food to share with our fellowship! We also had the privilege to hear from some of our graduating students as well, they shared their hearts with us and I'm sure they would love to stay in close touch with YF.

This Saturday morning (Sept. 5th 9:30am - 2pm) will be our YF Kickoff "Where's Waldo" event! Please try to be punctual, even come ahead of time if you could because we need to divide you into teams and send you on your way as the Waldo's will already be waiting at the mall. Each team will need a camera to take pictures and with video capabilities for extra points. Please bring your cameras fully charged with space too. Each team will be given a "Find these Suspects" card. You will try and find as many Waldo's during the given time (snap a picture with them and get their signature on their picture on the card (there will be bonus points awarded for certain tasks) then return to church by 1pm to eat lunch together. Each Waldo has been encouraged to look "out of character of their own personalities" and to be in constant motion, so they are always moving. Just like any kickoff event, lots of people are giving of their time to be involved in it, please honor that and be quick and invite friends from anywhere (same ones as coffeehouse, a good time to reinvite them).

We've registered many people for Fall Retreat (Sept 11-13th) who still need either form or payment. If you still would like to register a friend or something, we can still make arrangements because of how things have worked out. So please get your forms and payment in this Saturday! We will be meeting at the VIA Rail station at 200 Tremblay Rd at 5:15pm on Friday, September 11th and you can be picked up at the same station on Sunday, September 13th at 5:00pm. If you are on a team for the devotions in the mornings you may want to touch base with each other regarding those.

Let us know if you want us to pray for you, to catch up with a coffee, bbtea or something.
See you Saturday!
