Hey guys!
Please come and join the Combined District Youth Gathering on the 26 of September. It will be held at Grace Methodist Church down in Forrestdale; it's not that far, and you can check out their new(ish) building!
More importantly, let's gather to celebrate unity, and to learn more from Dr Brian Harris who will be speaking on the night!
One more important announcement is that we will be taking registrations for the AMYC on the night at the early bird rate! If you still want to come to AMYC, or invite some friends, you can still get the early bird rate. AND; if you come to our EMYF, we are also going to give you a further discount (to $130)! This can also apply to your friends.
There will be no youth on Friday the 25th of September. If you have transport difficulties, please contact James for help! We will get you down there.
** Esther, Jon, Richard -- you guys are ushers! (there will be 3 from each
Just want to let everyone know that this week's special program at EMYF is Iron Masterchef Nite - A Cookoff with the Parents.
The main ingredient that will be used in your dishes is Fruits. You'll be cooking in your tribe groups and will be alloacted a certain amount of fruits to cook with. You will not only be judged on the taste of your dish but the relativity to a bible story. So please feel free to bring your friends and most importantly invite your parents to come along!
It would also help if you could bring some utensils from the kitchen (e.g. knives, chopping boards, nice plates/bowls/glasses, etc.) and any other ingredient that will go well with fruits! (e.g custard, whipped cream, etc..)
Well take care and have a fantastic week! And i'll see you all on Friday at youth!
Our youth will be participating in the 40 hour Famine this year.
For those who don't know what 40 hour famine is.. it is a yearly youth fundraising event that raises funds for children living in poverty in Cambodia and Kenya.
Do something real and sacrifice something you love for 40hrs (be it facebook, food, tv, furniture.. ) and have people supporting you by donating funds. It's a great way for young people in Australia to experience what life is like for those to have to go without - every single day...
The 40 hour famine weekend start at 8pm on Friday 21 August and finishes at noon on Sunday 23 August. So please I encourage everyone to participate this year, although it will be challenging but it makes you realise how much God has really blessed you in your life.
If you are interested in participating, please contact Christina or Jonathan.
This Friday, to celebrate end of exams and tests, we're all going to have dinner at Rev Chew's house. Please bring friends and a dish (if you can), but let Rev Chew know if you are.
Important details:
When: Friday 19th June
Time: starts at SIX PM! Not 7:30.
Address: 84 Camm Ave, Bull Creek. Not Church.
What: Food, Games, Sharing, Fun!
If you need transport, please contact James on 0411080143, or email us!

This is one of my favourite songs which our choir has sung. It is a beautiful song, based on 2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV):
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
EMYF will be participating in the 40 Days of Purpose Journey along with our church for the next 7 weeks.
Here are some important instructions to take note of while we study the 40 Days of Purpose material:
please read one chapter a day (of The Purpose Driven Life book)
come prepared to discuss what you've read
there will be some discussion questions which are on the handout that accompanies the church bulletin - if you don't come to our church service then hopefully you can just read the 40DOP book anyway, the leader will go through the questions.
study groups will be in your new tribes
If you don't have a copy of 'A Purpose Driven Life', we are handing out FREE copies of book at youth every week. Please see Richard or Rev. Chew for more information :) Hope you guys come prepared!! SEE YOU this friday!!
6 November 09 Movie Night! Feel free to come and invite your friends for a night of fun and fellowship

Bible Memory Verse
"The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it." 1 Corinthians 12:12,27
**Never ignore the power of words, God created the world with them!**
