YF Basic: Prayer this Friday (24th) Getaway, NON
Thanks for another packed weekend! Even though weather didn't cooperate enough for Winterlude last Friday, we were able to enjoy fellowship at the worship training session, Bible study on Colossians, Getaway practice and Sunday school over the weekend.
This Friday (24th), we'll continue through part 6 of the Basic series that started last January with Prayer. Over the last year we've journeyed through this series which challenges us to reclaim church/fellowship to what God desires it to be according to the Bible. We've looked at Fear God, Follow Jesus, Holy Spirit, Fellowship and Teaching. Our focus this week will be on prayer... Is it possible that some of our prayers go unanswered because we are praying out of a sense of obligation or maybe for the wrong things? Are our prayers supposed to be a list of things we want, or are they really intended to be an ongoing dialogue with God about the things He wants? Bring your Bibles and Getaway forms!This Sunday (26th), we'll continue with our devotional thought followed by wisdom in proverbs. We just focused on holding our tongues, foolish motives and maintaining healthy relationships with God and others. This week we'll focus on integrity and honesty from chapter 20.
Good Friday morning service at CCCO (before No Other Name), I'll be coordinating the Good Friday joint worship service on April 6th. If you have any creative skits (preferably silent or sparse dialogue to avoid too much translation) or something you would like to contribute to the service please let me know.
Getaway forms due March 4th, please return them as soon as possible with cheques payable to 'Ottawa Chinese Youth Ministerium' Preparations and meetings are ongoing for all the Getaway committees, hope things are going well!
No Other Name is coming up on Good Friday, April 6th. Let me know you are coming before March 15th to get the $29 earlybird, otherwise it will be $42.
Prayer: Please continue praying for the personal things you know (shared publicly at YF) or trusted to you by a brother or sister, also pray for our C&Y meeting this Wednesday night, we'll have lots to talk about regarding the mission trip, several events, rock the river, AWANA, curriculum, together program, budgets, etc. Pray for the C&Y team as it's a huge task and the core group members have all been working hard as there are more than 40 volunteers involved in these ministries!
Let us know how we can join you in prayer and help us set up a time to catch up over coffee, bbtea or whatever...
See you all on Friday!
