YF Waterfight @ Eric's this Friday, Discipleship Week next week

Hope everyone had a great civic holiday weekend, huge thanks to Em and Shelly for the Food Olympics events and the 20+ participants to make it awesome!  Thanks for praying for Sunday as I spoke on spiritual warfare.  This is the constant reality that we live in and we are frequently warned to be alert and in prayer.  Pray for our church, fellowship and friends.

This Friday (10th), we'll be having our Waterfight Extravaganza at the Pan's home  (address in your e-mail). (Google Maps Directions).  Arrive at 5:30pm for a potluck, bring food, feel free to arrive as you are able, Games and waterfight will start at 7pm and following that we will have an informal time of games and hanging out until fellowship ends at 9:20pm.  The forecast looks like 70% rain on Friday, but we'll make it work :)

The deets: Eric will be providing a couple hundred waterballoons, feel free to bring your own stash (like last year), bazookas and other special tools for your own 'tactical advantage'.   Bring Friends, Water guns, balloons (we'll have some but the more baloons, the more chaos), towels, clean change of clothes, from Eric:  " YFers will bring food for potluck, as well as any towels or change of clothe they will need. Dress will be shorts and t-shirts at all times, no white t-shirts. I would also suggest shorts to around knee-length, or just slightly less. (I'm so old fashion, the Ammish be trippin' =P) "

If I'm missing anything, maybe Eric can fill in blanks! :)

Next week is Discipleship Week (August 13-17th) 9:30am - 12noon each day, we are wrestling with a curriculum which examines the way Jesus commands us to live our lives. With what is considered normal in society these days, the lives of Christians should look drastically different.  Print out the letter for your parents to fill out so they are aware of the service dates.  Thursday we will be meeting at the Jericho Road home at 10 Crerar Ave, every other morning we will be meeting at church.

VBS is coming up (20th-24th), thanks to all of you who volunteered, we are currently looking for rides for some of the children, if you have a sibling attending VBS with space in your car, please let us know! 

Fall Retreat is booked for September 21-23rd, pray for our retreat and Rock the River (Sept 29-30) the following week and bring your coffeehouse friends!

Coming up: 
Waterfight, Discipleship Week, Fall Retreat, Rock the River and more!

See you all at Eric's on Friday!
