Mike Fisher event at Lifecentre this Friday (30th)

Thanks for your participation and involvement with the Bible study in Jonah last Friday, we discover that (just like Jonah) we can hear God, know Him, pray to God and even obey God but still lose God's perspective and His heart for people (which is incredibly essential to our faith). We asked if there was a Nineveh in our life (Israelites despised Nineveh because they were Assyrians), and to assess if we were participating in God's adventure in our own lives or if we had become a spectator like Jonah (waiting for someone else to do it).

This Friday, Mike Fisher of the Ottawa Senators will be sharing his testimony at the Lifecentre this Friday (30th) (directions to the Lifecentre) and Hearts in Stereo will be playing as well. I know many of you have heard about this on the radio or from friends and are already planning to attend with friends. Please use this opportunity to invite friends who may be curious to hear from Mike Fisher as he'll be sharing how Christ defines his life. “I am very fortunate to be able to make a living playing hockey, but I have come to realize that playing in the NHL is only a small part of who I am, and not the part that defines me. Having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ is what I believe truly defines a person and how we find eternal significance.” There is no formal gathering at CCCO this Friday so we encourage you to join this event and bring anyone whom you may know who would be interested in hearing Mike. The event is FREE (donations given to Rogers House) and doors open at 6pm. Shell and I will be there as well.

Please pray for me if you can remember as I am preaching this Sunday. Also, remember that Discipleship week is coming up in August (16th-20th) 9am - 12noon each morning. We'll have times of teaching and community service as well as a service day at the Mission on the 25th.
Let us know how you are doing and how we can be praying for you/family.

See you Friday
