YF Bible study this Friday (18th)

Thanks for joining us (even during exam prep) in supporting the Relay for Life last week, apparently our lap running ended up in the middle of the pack. ;) Thanks for your participation in our studies of the minor prophets on Sunday as well. We learned from the prophet Micah how to live, doing justice, loving mercy and walking humbly with God (6:8). God does not look upon taking advantage of others favorably. We need to value others more than being self-seeking. The new heart desires to return to God for instruction for life. (4:2) With everything that was going on (2:1-3;3:1-3), God is still able to accomplish His desires (7:18-20)

This Friday (18th), we'll have the privilege of hearing Bible studies at the church prepared by youth who are serving on this year's Ouje mission trip, please bring your Bibles/pens etc. Pending on the weather, we may have our Bible study outside in the Lord's garden as well. Maybe we can grab a spring picture of the group too. We also have a service opportunity on August 25th with the Ottawa Mission (similar to last year's awesome experience where we got to serve and interact with others), which won't overlap totally with Discipleship week, but keep that day open if you can :)

Also, I wanted to briefly shout out Salem Storehouse, each year they donate $300-$400 worth of Bibles to give away to Cree youth that don't have Bibles. I picked up 10 leather Bibles from them to give away just days ago. Just know that when you support them, they support God's kingdom.

Please continue to follow up discussions with friends, thoughts towards the testimony, skits, music and the whole coffeehouse... and consider Alpha: h2o series in September.
Coming up (please book the following dates)
June 27th - July 3rd YF Missions to Ouje-Bougoumou
July 17th Church picnic and baptisms
August 16th - 20th YF Discipleship Week
August 25th - Helping out at the Ottawa Mission
September 17th YF Alpha begins (10 weeks)

Let us know if you'd like to meet up, pray/chat!
See you all on Friday!
