Upper Canada Youth For Christ, serving rural youth ministries in Upper Canada by building relationships, sharing resources and following the pulse of God where it is already beating

This week at our Youth Answer night we will be doing an introduction to the Holy Spirit. "You cant talk about the Holy Spirit without talking about God the Father, and God the Son". Click on the link below to watch the intro to the Holy Spirit. Pray for wisdom and insight, for their beings to be hungry and understand. Intro to Holy Spirit link

We will continue with the "Random Acts" group on Wednesday at South Grenville District High school. I am in the process of asking some local businesses if they would like to support this group. Also pray for Sarah, the teen helping us engage youth in the high school. The Alpha Youth Holy Spirit weekend is finally upon us!  Friday April 8 to Saturday April 9we will have 35-40 people gathering to learn more about the Holy Spirit. Part of this group will consist of youth in Prescott, another part will be youth from Athens. Our final planning meeting will be on Thursday April 7.  Please continue to pray as you have been in regards to planning. Each day leading up to the weekend (for those of you in the regular prayer team) I will send a group of names to you with the request you keep them in your heart and mind for that day. I will specify if the names are youth or volunteers.  God is at work in this leaders life, and I am excited to see what he will be up to during this time.  To Pray more specifically about the curriculum we will be learning, feel free to watch the Alpha video's below.  Youth Alpha: Spirit, Who is the Spirit, and what does He do? Youth Alpha: Fill, How can I be filled with the Holy Spirit? On June 3, 2016 we are planning on working with churches in the Upper Canada region to do a Youth Rally at the outdoor amphitheater in Prescott. The theme for this Rally will be based on Proverbs 8:21:  "Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose." We have partnered with Pastor Tim Conrad from Centennial Road Church and have invited youth pastors from Smiths Falls to Cornwall to participate. This Rally will include a 5 lessons written by various youth pastors leading up to this time together. It has been difficult to get some of the pastors interested in what we are planning. Pray on this with us. God has given us clear vision to call the youth into a more God glorifying way to interact with Social media. Impact on this generation in this area could be immense. I would like to invite you to join me in a partial fast for the youth in regards to the Holy Spirit weekend. You can do this however you like, if you choose to participate. It is our hope that unbelief or lack of understanding may be lifted, and for the Spirit of Truth to deepen the wisdom in regards to the third part of God. Below I have left a link to an east outline to fast if you are unfamiliar or would like to know more about fasting. "...I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.  I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people..."  -Paul in his letter to the Ephesians Click here for fasting information I could never thank you enough for your emails, questions and encouraging words. Without prayer this ministry would simply be mans effort with temporal outcome. We want to see lives changed for the Kingdom of God.  Thank you for being at the front of the battle lines with me. Knowing you give all of these requests to our Lord in Prayer helps me to do what He has called me to do.
