Aloha ladies and gentlemen,
It is time, once again, to behold with open eyes, prodigious minds and edge of your seat anticipation the schedule for this week. Without further ado let us transfix our gaze on the agenda below.

We should all be interested to know that on
Tuesday, Nov 8: 7:30am @ Doug /Janelle's
Wednesday, Nov: 10:oo am @ church
Saturday Nov, 12: 8:00pm @ Doug/Janelle's
there are prayer meetings. Why should we be interested to know this? Because life isn't a playground, and as 1 Peter 5:8 says,"....your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour." (ESV)
Therefore let us pray without ceasing; for each other, for the church, for the universal church of God, for believers and leaders in our community as well as all over the world. Prayer is the most powerful weapon we have.

Thursday, Nov 10: Bible Study at church 7:00pm; bring your bibles and a willingness to learn

"But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth." 1 John 17-19 (ESV)

Alright let us check out what is going on this week...
Monday Oct 31- we have Awakening 7:00pm at church hope to see you there for a time of worship and prayer
Tuesday Nov 1- Morning of Prayer at Doug and Janelle's 7:30am; great way to starts off your day!
Thursday Nov 2- Community Groups talk to your leaders, check out what they have planned

Looks like that is it for now, hope you have a blessed week!
"Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labour in the Lord is not in vain."

They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, the lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him."(NIV)

HSC Fall Kick-Off!!

Are you in High School? Are you freshly graduated and looking for a place to land? Well in case you forgot its September and HSC is kicking back into full gear starting Sept 8 (Thursday)! Here are a few important facts to take note of going forward:

Community Groups - You may or may not have known that our high school and college ministries are split into community groups - this is an awesome place to grow with your friends - if you’re not in one now, we’ll be sure to connect you!

1 Peter Study - We live in day of uncertainty - stock markets on the fritz, earthquakes, hurricanes, wars, rumors of war - and the scriptures aren’t new to a world that looks like this. Have you ever thought about suffering? Have you ever thought about what it means to be a Christian in a crazy world? Well, 1 Peter is a book of the Bible that will bring us deep into these questions. Come ready to go deep.

Hands On Service Projects - Every 4 weeks we will be getting out into the community and working with our hands in loving the people of Steinbach and the surrounding area in practical ways. This could mean Helping Hands, baking for people who can’t get out, Siloam Mission, raking lawns, painting houses, Winnipeg harvest, Union Gospel Mission, Prayer walks, Construction projects and whatever else the Lord brings us!

If your on the edge of coming - just come! Especially consider coming for this next weeks kick-off, its a great time to get to know people doing something fun. Hope to see you all soon!!
