[RISE Weekly] New Sermon Series TONIGHT! 📨
Youth TONIGHT at the Behnan’s! New sermon series! A way you can help Trunk or Treat!
Dear Parents,
It was a joy going through the book of Daniel with your students! I pray that the word changed the hearts of your students – that they were encouraged and helped by seeing the faith of Daniel and his friends as well as the faithfulness of our God. All of our sermons from Daniel are now uploaded to our website as well as Apple and Spotify Podcasts!
THIS WEDNESDAY 🆕📨
Join us TONIGHT from 6:15-8:15 pm at the Behnan Home (36750 Robin Scott St, Murrieta, CA 92562) as we begin a NEW SERIES!
Our staff met together this past Sunday to pray for your students and talk about how we can better disciple them. In the meeting, we identified some common struggles we’ve found amongst the students:
Students not taking sin seriously
Students lacking a big view of God
Students not understanding how to practically have faith
So, starting tonight, we’ll be going through Revelation 2–3. Calling the series “LETTERS FROM JESUS.”
Letters straight from Jesus Christ Himself written to 7 real churches who (besides Smyrna & Philadelphia) are being rebuked for tolerating sin (addresses #1). Each letter is similar in structure – Jesus always begins by identifying Himself and proclaiming His own character (addresses #2). And in each letter our Lord gives a clear command – what they must do to repent from their sins (addresses #3).
TONIGHT we will be in Revelation 2:1–7 where Jesus will essentially ask us the question “Do you love Me?” The first and greatest mark of a genuine Christian is their love for God! I’m so excited to begin this series with your students and I am praying it is a help and blessing. Read the passage with your students before they come!
TRUNK OR TREAT – A WAY YOU CAN HELP!
TRUNK OR TREAT is on 10/28 from 6–8pm at Rival Coffee! This statement is true: Trunk or Treat will be 100x more fun than any silly pumpkin patch you visit this month. It’s just true! Students dress up, go through a ton of activity stations (the trunks) and win awesome prizes. Costume contest! Free coffee! Candy! Live music! Jr High and High School combined! DON’T MISS IT & INVITE FRIENDS!
A WAY YOU CAN BLESS US = DONATE CANDY! 🍬🍫🍭 Trunk or Treat requires a TON of candy (we’re expecting about 200 students with 20 stations)! So, if you are able to donate bags of candy, we would greatly appreciate it! Just drop it off with us on a Wednesday Night or Sunday Morning before 10/28! 😁
See you all TONIGHT at youth!
In Him,
Terrell
Last Week
Nothing is mundane about Wednesday nights, even though they happen every week. The kids love participating in our game and there was even candy given out for those who were able to recall and recap the previous chapters in Daniel. Terrell finished up the series by ending with Daniel in the Lion’s Den and how throughout his whole life, Daniel’s faith was unchanging because he had placed his faith in the unchanging character of God. Small groups went so well by giving us a chance to dive into how to apply the truth of the message to our lives.
