YF Winterlude this Friday (11th) meeting at the Yan's + Winterness forms

This last weekend was such an amazing encouragement to many! Uncles and Aunties have been overwhelmingly encouraging about you guys! They had many positive and encouraging comments regarding your service on Sunday preparing the lunch, cleaning, setting up tables/chairs, removing decorations, cooking etc. Be sure to continually thank our aunties and uncles for all the work that they do as we have much to learn from them. It was clear from all the workshops, sharings, dinners, lunches and the services all throughout this weekend that the adults of our church love and support you guys as the next generation!

This Friday (11th) we will be skating/walking on the canal along with Pure Energy to enjoy Winterlude!! we will be meeting at uncle Eddie and auntie Salina's place at 7pm (address in your e-mail) and picked up by 9:45pm. We will skate together in groups, complete with ice sculptures, hot chocolate and just enjoying each other's company. Submit the attached form If you have not submitted it at gym night. Bring warm clothes, skates and some money if you plan on eating beavertails etc. :)

Winterness forms are due this weekend (forms are attached)! We need to know the number so proper transportation and food can be provided.

This Sunday (13th), We will tackle the second lesson from chapter 4 in our "Experiencing God" workbooks. Those who own the book are encouraged to complete and meditate on each day's lesson (5 days in each chapter) throughout the week. As mentioned before auntie Salina, uncle Youlian and our very own Brad shared about how the Lord used this curriculum to completely change their lives as they listen to the Spirit.

Also, please remember that I would love to come and share at your Christian groups in your schools, please let me know your schedules and if you'd like to come and share. As always, I would love to catch up and pray for you if you are free (the leaders would love to meet&pray with you too).

Upcoming:
Montreal Winterness on Feb 26th - Return FORMS ASAP (attached) There will be skidoos, skating.... and winter goodness as well as meals, transportation etc. I`ve attached the Waiver form to your e-mail and promo (produced by Brad and Rae-Anne!) so please get those back to us ASAP as we need to arrange for rides. This is a perfect event to invite your friends to YF as well!
Getaway: Know my Voice. Ten Four (March 18-20).
30 Hour Famine: We are doing the 30 Hour Famine this year! I've asked the other pastors and they are down. April 8-9th!
For those who are prayerfully considering missions in Ouje, our dates would be June 26th - July 2nd. There is potential that the trip could be longer than previous years, but that is the Teen Camp date. Pastor Enoch and I hope this doesn't overlap with exam dates as it has in previous years.

See you all on Friday!
