YF Gym Night this Friday (27th) CH followup
What a weekend! It was such a joy to witness how you all worked together for the same purpose of displaying God's glory. Our sister Salina wanted me to pass this encouragement to you, please read it in full because I couldn't have said it better myself.Dear YFers,
Well done! Good job! ....... Did you hear God been repeating that to you on Friday evening?
I wasn't at the coffee house on Friday. But Manson shared of his joy when he came home after the coffee house, Pastor Francis shared the excitement with the Cantonese congregation this morning; Pastor Josh shared with the C&Y core team this amazing evening in the C&Y meeting this afternoon.
I certainly felt overwhelmed hearing all these. God works in amazing ways all the time in you and through you.
In preparing for this evening program, I know many of you served in the front stage, and yet still many of you served quietly behind the scenes. And together you all served Jesus in joy and to the glory of God.
Remember, the little things you do.... the sacrifices you make..... may not always be noticed by others -- but God sees every one of them and smiles.
Thank you all and Praise God for your love to Jesus.
Well Done! Good Job!!
Praise the Lord for this weekend, all the preparation in the various ways, prayer, decorations, sound, powerpoint, tech, food, games, apple skit, mc, overall program, prizes, leaders, setting/cleaning up, music, testimony etc. As auntie Salina said, many details may not always be noticed by others but the Lord knows your heart and the desire you had to bring glory to Him through the coffeehouse. From your sharing, your friends had a great experience and some were profoundly impacted while others had many questions. Please use these weeks of followup to continue the discussion (about the songs, skits, videos, testimony) with your friends at school or wherever you hang out. The greatest encouragement to me is the fruit in your individual lives, the fact that your faith expresses itself through love for those around you. That's the vision of our youth min that students would be transformed by Christ and develop a passionate faith that is rooted in Scripture; so they would dynamically shape the people and culture around them.
This Friday (27th), will be GYM NIGHT at St. Patrick High school along with other brothers and sisters from the church! This gym is absolutely fantastic and HUGE with nets/equipment for basketball, floor hockey, volleyball, badminton etc. so bring your friends. We’ll meet at St. Patrick High School (Google directions provided: 2525 Alta Vista Drive, Ottawa, K1V 7T3). Please arrive at 7:15-30pm (or earlier if you need to change) and we have the gym booked from 7:30pm until 10pm. Please bring appropriate clothing and footwear (no boots). The consent form is attached. If you need a ride to and from church let me know ASAP otherwise meet at the gym.
This Sunday (29th) we will be entering into Samuel's story from 1 Samuel during Sunday school. Through reading Scripture and understanding what it must have been like for this amazing guy who anointed both king Saul and David in the OT, we should learn to live with our ears wide open.
Following Sunday school, our Ouje mission team will have a meeting to pray and plan from 12:30pm - 2:00pm (max), please bring your own lunch. You've received details about this in a separate e-mail. We haven't received much participation in regards to b/sisters submitting recipes so remember to hound your parents for them :) and their cell groups!
Continue to pray for friends, each other and us adult leaders :)
Let us know if you would like to meet up or how we can be praying for you.
Until Friday,
