YF Games/Movie night this Friday (25th)

I trust everyone is either done their exams or finishing up today or tomorrow :) It must feel nice to wrap up the school year. Many people have been praying for you during these busy weeks, that you would manage your time with wisdom and glorify the Lord through your studying. Thanks for everyone who participated in the Bible studies on Friday and at Sunday school, we had the privilege of hearing several devotions prepared by youth who'll be serving in the Ouje mission next week.

This Friday (25th), we'll be having a games night / movie night at the church (118). Please bring your boardgames, wiimotes, Brawl disc, you can bring movies to choose from - you can gather in the backyard and play some outdoor games, talk with one another/pray together... Feel free to invite your friends as well. Brad and Rae-Anne will be with you guys this Friday as I have a couple of High School commencements that day (one of which overlaps with YF time) so I hope you guys have an awesome time on Friday! The next Friday (July 2nd) there will be no official YF program at the church during the YF Ouje mission trip, however we do encourage you to make time for each other, meet up somewhere - go bowling or have bubbletea to build relationships with one another.

Now that you have some more freedom in the summer, let us know if you'd like to meet up for lunch, coffee, bbtea etc.

Ongoing:
Please continue to follow up your coffeehouse discussions with your friends, ask them about their thoughts towards the testimony, skits, music and the whole coffeehouse... and prayerfully invite them for our 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

Additional: Looks like we will be free to use room 202 through the summer!! If you have ideas for the large room and how you would like to design it, let me know or Jon Lam (Hong Kong Jon Lam) who will help design a blueprint for it! Couches, colors, stage, rugs, lighting etc. Let us know, we'd love to have it somewhat designed by Youth Alpha time in September :)
