YF + PE Group Games this Friday (4th) in Room 202
Thanks for participating in the Next Gen Family Feud event last Friday! A lot of you guys were getting perfect scores in the gameshow which illustrates that many of the ideals are extremely hard to practice consistently in the family dynamic. May God give strength, wisdom and patience to parents and strength, wisdom and patience to youth as well we continue to strive to be healthy God-loving families. It was a serious, yet sometimes funny (with honest input) study of Proverbs 7 on Sunday, some grave warnings, but godly wisdom to be mindful of at all times. Identify some of these vulnerable areas of temptation and address them in practical ways, guarding both heart and mind. My devotion focuses on Awareness this week. The Bible is full of God's mighty outpouring of love and miracles. We become conditioned to look for God in the phenomenal events in life. We need to pray and become more aware of God in the ordinary and common things of life. May the Spirit persuade us to look for him in all things and at all times. Ps 63, Jn 4:4-42; Mt 13:1-23; Mk 8:27-30; Jn 9:1-41; 2 Cor 4:7-18; Rom 8:18-27; Dan 2:20-23.This Friday (4th), we will have an evening full of fun, games and food in Room 202 with Pure Energy! Brad and Rae-Anne have been planning a fun night of group games which will be sure to be a blast... as Brad said on Sunday, it won't have balloons (Popaballoonapalooza) or lots of relays so stayed tuned! Feel free to bring extra drinks/snacks and your friends along, 7:30pm this Friday in the Next Gen room!
Next Friday (11th) will also be amazingly awesome as Aaron and Marcus will be working together and teaching us from Philippians 2:1-11 (with some background help as well :) and our brother Wardrer will also be sharing his testimony to YF on that night. Jesus worked with and through His disciples all the time and I pray that the Lord would continue to increase your faith as you see Him work through each other and yourselves as you continue to serve Him in this fellowship! Then as you mature, continue to disciple those younger than you! Each of you has an amazing story to tell and every pair of youth that will lead Bible studies will have the help that is necessary to work through these experiences :) This will be awesome! Our guys/girls night will be on the following Friday (18th).
This Sunday (6th), we will be committing our time to prayer along with the brothers and sisters in the English congregation. As we focus on praying and becoming a house of prayer, this is an opportunity that we discussed as Pastoral staff for the church to pray with and for each other in an inter-generational environment. We want to create a more natural culture in which brothers and sisters of all ages can get to know one another and pray as a family of Christ.
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
Never too early to start thinking of Getaway 2012 and our meeting in Dec where we will discuss theme and student leadership teams.
Let us know how we can be praying for you and if you'd like to catch up!
See you all on Friday!
