Preparation

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

Tonight and for the next 3 weeks our youth will be talking about Healthy Love. We will be looking at what the Bible says about love. Love between God and man, between a man and a woman, and the cultural difference between followers of Jesus and the World. This can be a touchy subject, please pray for all conversation to be coated in Love, and seasoned with truth. The lesson and preperation for it will be finished today.

We continue to work with four youth groups in the Upper Canada region that will all be using the Youth Alpha materials at the same time. Our youth Answer group will be using this opportunity to build confidence in natural leaders to lead our group some weeks. This begins the 2nd week of February. We will be organising a Holy Spirit weekend with all the youth groups participating in Youth Alpha again this year. Please pray into this weekend. This weekend will be either the last week in March or the first weekend in April, 2017. If you are interested in helping out with the Holy Spirit weekend, please send a reply to this email. There will be many youth, many mouths to feed, many hearts and minds to keep in prayer and many bodies to supervise. We would like to offer this time to the youth and their leaders for free, so ask God how you can help. Thanks! Wednesday this week, we will be facilitating a meeting with the Young Souls on Fire (Youth Adults) group in Brockville to plan for their Alpha series beginning the second week in February. Please pray for the small group leaders, and for the larger group to catch the vision for the Global Alpha Campaign in Brockville. I believe this group has potential to have an amazing impact on this generation through their willingness to participate in this. Thank you for your prayer. Thursday this week group from this area will be meeting with two of the the leaders from Alpha Canada. Regional Director for Ontario, Ryan Moffat and Tim Teakle, Youth Associate for Ontario will be joining us for dinner in Kemptville to discuss planning and best practices for Alpha both in the Young adult and Youth context. Pray for them, their ministries, and that the time spent with them is helpful both for us and them. For more info or to support these guys in what they are called to do in Canada, See link below. Alpha Canada staff From January 23-26 we will be at Eastern Regional in Kingston. This is a time of fellowship and training within the family of YFC. Please pray for our time together, and for daily travel mercies. Our family has been experiencing sickness for over two weeks now. Please pray for healingand rest... and patience. (Mostly patience for mom, nights have gotten very long)   I cannot thank all of you enough for your ongoing support. Knowing that you stand in place, praying for youth, events, programs, the present and future of Upper Canada YFC is so encouraging. This continues to be one of the best journeys God has ever invited us to be part of. Thank you for journeying with us! Blessings to each one of you.
