Heyloez folks!
I believe we had a great time at camp. Multitudes of new friends, crazy games, awesome-ic worship and powerful, "knock-me-over" encounters with the most high. Our pray is that God's word be planted and rooted into your hearts and your lives. Just as we stay rooted and established in Christ, let His Word be rooted in our hearts.
To help you remember, we will be looking into the possibility of making available the sermon and workshop recordings. In addition we will be compiling photos taken by us together with those from campers such as cassandra and amos and a few more. We may either have a 1 DVD compilation or have it made-to-order, depending on demand. So give a shout out to us if you would like any of the materials from camp.
Continue to tune into this space for the near future as we bring to you post camp material. Hopefully that will help to ease the post camp hangover and maybe excite you for next year's one.=D
Rock on Christian warriors! And remember to live IN Him and FOR Him!!

A venture into the Heartlands
Hi campers!
If you didn't already know, as part of our outreach program we distributed FACT Camp flyers to the blocks surrounding our church. For those who were not there, let me give you a brief summary.
On sunday afternoon and the following saturday night, a group of us (campers like you and me) made our way around the neighbourhood distributing flyers to the doorstep of eacdh household.
It was an experience that would have been reminiscent of our Love AMK projects many years ago. Back then we did surveys and gave out love gifts of daily necessities to the households. This time round our purpose was a little more concentrated and our goal was to reach out and invite the youths to come for FACT Camp, so they can make friends and hopefully encounter God in the process.
It was scary. Not particularly the giving out of flyers but at the moments when the doors were open and you had faces staring back at you. Sometimes you wonder if you'll encounter those one in a million case where people get violent or start shouting. There were a few instances I felt like it would be okay to just skip a house. But I realised, I did not have the right to decide who will have access to the gospel or not. And also if they reject me, it is Christ they reject, not something personal.
Overall, it was a great experience that was over all too quickly. It was great partly because we were doing God's work. The other part was that we did it together. Regardless of gender, age or cell group. Its unexplainable when we do God's work together. There is a unity that you can't build up through more mundane events.
With that, I end this report. Hopefully some of you out there will agree with some of the things I have said. Take care people! And remember to keep preparing for camp!

This is what 'you' can do:
'you' can join us this sat
'you' can pray for us and the homes that we'll be blessing
'you' can do your part by inviting your beloved friends for the camp too

BYF!
Act 1:8 But when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will be filled with power, and you will be witnesses for me in Jerusalem, in all of Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
We are called by God to be witnesses of His grace and glory manifest in Jesus Christ. Sometimes it is in the big ways like holding rallies and going on mission to remote places. Other times it is about the small little things we do, the things that touch or affects the course of another person's eternal destiny.
And that is where all of us come in. We are strongly encouraging you to bring your friends to FACT camp 2008~! (BYF) Let them come and experience the life changing power of God and the freedom it brings. Give them a chance to find the gift of eternal life!
You don't need to know the theologies of Christianity inside out. All you need is a simple faith and an undying passion to see your friends get saved. Its not just about choosing a religion when they fill in application forms, its about their name being in the Book of Life.
The time is now. Invite your friends!

The Heartbeat of Christ is the Pulse of the Church!
Here's a shout out to all you young people out there in the world wide web!
As you already know, we are beginning to ramp up preparation for the FACT camp at St. Francis Methodist School this year. The camp committee has already met several times and the preparation is well on its way.
Even as we are days away from the opening of registration, let me share with you a little about this year's publicity theme.
The Heartbeat of Christ is the Pulse of the Church.
We are called to grow to become like Christ. A healthy church should echo the things that Christ was concerned about and how he lived his life. We are the reflections of Christ to a world and a generation that needs it so much
This concept of connection is in relation to our theme for this year's FACT camp. This year we want to focus on getting connected to Christ and staying connected! We want to, not just get you connected to God during the camp, we want to equip you to maintain that connection.
We will reveal the camp theme in greater detail in the near future. So keep an eye out on this space and during service for future announcements and publicity.
We wish you a God blessed week and do remember that camp registration opens this sunday and all who register on sunday the 4th of november are eligible for the early bird fee of twenty dollars.
