YF Basic: Fellowship Bible study and discussion this Friday (12th)

Had a great time with you all at Emily's last Friday, it was great to see so many of you able to join us for some Marco Polo, weird swimming competitions, old school soccer baseball, barbeque dinner, snacks and the like. Special thanks to Emily and her aunt for opening up their beautiful backyard for us to crash for 6 hours (which passed incredibly quickly!).

This Friday (12th) we'll be continuing our BASIC series with Fellowship. Two months ago, we went through the Holy Spirit study and discussion which brings us to the 4th in the series with Fellowship. We'll wrestle with what the Bible says about fellowship, is the church a place where individuals gather once a week to sing a few songs and listen to someone talk about God? Or is it the people themselves, sharing a common mission in the world? What would happen if we start to view church the way God designed it... perhaps we might show others a glimpse of who God is, and begin to impact the world as He intended. How do we work towards that ideal fellowship together? Please bring your Bibles and be ready and willing to participate.

Next Monday through Friday (15th - 19th) will be our YF Discipleship week. This letter provides more details regarding our service opportunities for your parents to sign. Our theme will be "Manhood and Womanhood as defined in the Bible" This week will not only help you grow as a godly man or woman but also allow you to articulate what it is to look for in a potential spouse as well. As always, we will have a few local community service opportunities lined up.

Let us know how we can be praying for you!
See you all on Friday!

Coming up:

Also book September 16-18th as our YF Fall Retreat!!! This is a great kickoff retreat to build relationships within the group as a new generation of YF enters. I'm happy to say that Camp Galilee was gracious to us and we are set to head back to Renfrew for our Fall Retreat :)
