YF Bible study: Red Letters (14th) this Friday (GETAWAY meeting on Sunday 16th)

Thanks for all the input during devotion, sharing of spiritual gifts, vision and ideas during the Leadership Retreat this weekend! It helps to hear from you in regards to everything that is being planned for the year, thanks also to auntie Ivy and Leon for opening their home for YF for the games night, all the food, hospitality and the overnight stay!

This Friday (14th) we will be continuing our series on the Red Letters (Jesus' teachings) that started before the Christmas break. We studied the Beatitudes from the sermon on the mount last time and will study from where we left off last time. We had a really good discussion the last time during the Beatitudes and discovered the depth of Jesus' teachings. Bring your Bibles and please bring an open heart as we invite the Spirit to teach us what the implications of these words have in our lives.

This Sunday (12:30pm at OCAC, 16th) will be our Getaway meeting, prayerfully commit to coming and serving in Getaway (LUNCH is provided, translation: Free food for you 12:30), this meeting was originally scheduled before Christmas but had to be postponed because of the weather/driving concerns.

Next Friday (21st) will be a joint family Gym night with Pure Energy, YF, H2o, well everyone! It will be at St. Patrick's High School (2525 Alta Vista Drive, Ottawa, ON K1V 7T3) from 7:00 to 10:00 pm.

"Try to make your prayers this week be of praise and adoration. Don't let yourself begin from your needs of from within the context of your life. Instead begin your prayer against the backdrop of the greatness and majesty of God: Our Father... hallowed be Your Name..."

Let us know how we can pray for you or if you would like to meet up!
See you all on Friday!
