YF Games and Brainstorming this Friday (3rd)

Our Alpha course finished last Friday, thanks for all your participation in the discussion and for all the wonderful leaders who made efforts to facilitate the discussions! Each group had their own unique discussions each week. In all the weeks 23 of your friends attended the course and while not all of them were regular, I am sure that seeds were planted and curiosity was piqued in who Jesus is. To me, our retreat was definitely a highlight of Alpha as we got to spend time as a fellowship, focus on knowing Jesus in solitude and reflection... As a reminder, times of silence and prayer can also be a daily choice - as we shared in Sunday school: devotional guides are available (at Salem or free online) and theme Scripture is provided to reflect on each day. In Sunday school we looked into Daniel`s uncompromising attitude and his deep prayer life.

Since we`ve had some intense discussions over the last 10 weeks, we thought it would be fitting to have a more relaxing night of fellowship with games and brainstorming this Friday (3rd)! YF is back to its regular time, but feel free to come as early as 7pm to help set up and interact with each other! Bring your games (Connect 4, Jenga, Taboo, Pictionary etc!) as we will have several tables set up and snacks! We will also plug the WII into the projector and have some Brawl and Kart etc going on the big screen, so bring wiimotes, games, batteries etc. Feel free to bring some extra snacks and drinks as well. We`ll also have some short time to discuss the room design, leadership retreat and some other things that are coming up in the new year!

Looking ahead: I know it`s early, but PShawn, PDave, PDan, PSam (from Vietnamese church) and I have already gotten together to meet for GETAWAY planning. We have tentatively scheduled a meeting for December 12th after Sunday service at OCAC. Our vision for this retreat is to have a student led event where we gather your input regarding theme, worship, games etc and make it happen together! Please use your gifts to serve the student body of Christ through helping a team for the Getaway! Also, If you are free on Saturday, EACO is holding a coffeehouse at 7pm and you are invited to join as well.

See you all on Friday!
