Words of Faith, Peace through Games
Dear BYG:
This morning we heard Pastor Yancey tell his story of ministry and faith. He said his central understanding of God in Christ is that he came to bring us life.
This afternoon, Amy, Carson, Miriam and her German exchange student Franzi joined with 14 other youth from Jewish and Christian Science faiths to play games and explore the possibilities for building peace in our world. Thanks to Bill Pryor and Sherman Lee for volunteering to drive.
NEXT WEEK: We will be distributing pamphlets around the neighborhood to notify them we will be picking up food during Halloween for Hunger (4-6 p.m. on Saturday, October 31.) We also need help at church during the blood drive, assisting our blood-givers with snacks and TLC. Anyone who is over 16 can donate blood, with parent permission.
We are missing Pastor Rebecca's story of ministry and faith during education hour, but we will invite her to share with our youth group one day instead.
From today's Gospel lesson in Mark 10:
Jesus said, "Whoever wishes to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wishes to be first among you must be slave of all. For the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
All about life this week,
Deb
