YF Next Generation Family Feud this Friday (28th)
That was a lot of fun last Friday! It was an amazing blessing to interact with Patrick and the housemates at Jericho Road last week. They shared how encouraging it was to witness joyful enthusiasm as you served. Because we had such fantastic participation (in numbers and attitude), we finished quickly and had a chance to have discussion groups. It was our privilege to serve and Patrick even mentioned another opportunity that I'll outline later in this e-mail. I've been focusing on lifestyle this week and our prayer focus can be this "when Jesus said that he was the Way he meant more than the Way to the Father. He was also telling us a way to think, a way to act, a way to react, a way for all of life. This week pray that you will truly be in the Way." Ps 15; Deut 5:1-32; Galatians 6:1-10; Matthew 25:1-13; Romans 13:1-14; John 15:1-17; Mark 12:28-34; Luke 11:33-36.
This Friday (28th), YF will be joined by youth from other churches and their parents for our Next Generation conference "Anti-Family Feud". All parents are encouraged to join as this event is meant to be a Game Show Presentation for Ages 9-99. Even if your parents are unable to join, join us anyways! We will be joined by other churches and youth as Pastor Jeff's ministry focus is bringing awareness of the second generation to Chinese churches. He is also hosting workshops at our church Saturday for leaders and concerned parents: "The Role of the Church in Raising the Next Genaration", "Raising Your Kids Between Two Cultures", "Raising a Godly Genaration" More details can be found on our church website. Bring your Bibles and parents at the regular 7:30pm time in the upstairs sanctuary.This Sunday (30th), we will continue our series in Proverbs. 2 Chronicles 9:23 says "All the kings of the earth sought audience with Solomon to hear the wisdom God had put in his heart." May we eagerly desire wisdom as we saw last week wisdom will protect and watch over us (Prov 4:6).
Patrick (from Jericho Road) has a brother who is organizing an evening of praise, worship and presentation. We are invited to play a couple of songs. It's on Saturday November 12th, 2011 at 6:30PM at 1401 Blair Place (Wells Salvation church), if you are able to play a song or two, make a team and all funds raised will support an orphanage, Feeding program, education sponsorship program, and a training center for widows in Kampala-Uganda.
Had a great time with many of you on Wednesday (26th) as we went to the Met fair and Starbucks. Continue to seek the Lord and counsel from your parents as you discern your future.
Remember to keep up your daily Scripture reading and prayer, "Lord, let me put right before interest; let me put others before self: let me put things of the Spirit before things of the body: let me put the attainment of noble ends before the enjoyment of present pleasures: let me put principle above reputation: let me put you before all else. Amen." - John Baillie - A Diary of Private Prayer Let us know how we can be praying for you.
See you all on Friday!
