YF Games Night this Friday (20th)

"I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." I hope that you were encouraged on Sunday and pray Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3 for those surrounding you. The love of Christ surpasses knowledge and has to be experienced, by us and through us. We had a good class in Proverbs on Sunday, guarding our tongues because they can set a whole forest ablaze in James and Jesus shows that they are an indication of our heart "for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks" Mt 12:34

This Friday (20th) will be a games night in the Youth Room. With examinations looming for some of you, this may be a good time to just enjoy each other's company with games. Please bring various board games (Risk, Apples to Apples, Dutch Blitz etc.), friends and snacks etc. Our family will be out in New Brunswick so, we'll miss you guys this weekend! You'll be in more than awesome company with each other, Brad, Rae-Anne, Emily and Jeff. Jeff will be teaching Sunday school this Sunday (22nd).

Upcoming: Next week (27th and 28th) will be YF Bible study and Worship and Praise night on Saturday!
