YF/PE FM 4:19 this Friday (4th) and Saturday (5th)

Thanks for all who participated in the 30 Hour Famine! Awareness was raised for all 4 issues and you were particularly passionate about safety and clean water. We got to make 60+ encouraging (and beautiful) cards for the senior residence, encouraged them with your visit and donate three wagons full to the Ottawa Food Bank. The final number has not been determined yet as all the forms/donations haven't been returned (please do so this week), but our group will donate the funds to help provide clean water to those that need it most. In Sunday school we had a devotion on idols in our lives then looked at the sayings of Agur in Prov 30, amazed by God's goodness and particularly challenged by his prayer from 7 to 9.

This weekend will be our FM 4:19 event (4th and 5th) at Bethel Pentecostal Church. Please meet at 500 Viewmount Dr around 6:45pm (to counteract Chinese time). Everything about the weekend has been specifically designed (and solely focused) to help jr+sr high students identify and understand the important truths of faith in Christ, draw you closer to Him and give you confidence in articulating the gospel to others! SIGN UP HERE: https://secure.billygraham.ca/rocktheriver/fm419/ let me know as soon as possible). We will also be joined by students city-wide (and beyond) and the Rend Collective Experiment, watch their story here and listen to a sample song here.

Where: Bethel Pentecostal Church (500 Viewmount Dr., Nepean, ON)
When: Friday night 7:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.
& Saturday morning 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

I have the following 16 youth signed up for FM 4:19 at $10 a piece (It is now $15 to register), If you have paid you are marked with a (p): Allan, Andrew(p), Maria(p), Marcus(p), Zachary(p), Eric Y(p), Rachel Y(p), Priscilla(p), Eugene, Eugenia, Jade (p), Gloria (p), Hillary, Aaron, Jeffrey(p), Alison(p)

This Sunday (6th), please pray for me as I will be preaching in the English service and join for prayer in Room 202 as we do the first Sunday of each month.

The Ouje mission team is being finalized and you should know within the week, we hope to have a quick debrief after our Sunday school class this week.

Coffeehouse is coming up on May 26th, just a month away! We encourage the student leadership team to focus on the progress thus far. Start praying about who you can invite to the coffeehouse too!

Suggest a time in the coming weeks to catch up, if you can`t find the time - tell us how we can be praying for you/your family. See you at FM 4:19!
