The ladies warming up with some hot chocolate on Team Day . |
Hello everyone! Julie here with the first
blog of 2014 for Les Equipes.
We arrived back in La Beauce last week
after spending sometime in Ottawa with three other teams to receive some more
training. We’re thrilled to be back, and have gotten right back into the swing
of things.
For our weekly sports night we decided to
switch things up a bit, and instead of a sport we played cards and board games
with the youth at our office! It was a fun way to spend the evening, and
everyone had a great time. The weekend featured our first youth group of the new
year with a night for the younger high school students where the theme was
“Jesus as a Friend”. We played some team-building games, heard a talk from Matt,
wrote letters to Jesus during prayer time, and finished off the night with
trivia and snacks. It was beautiful to see them so concentrated sitting in the
church writing their letters, and really using the opportunity to deepen their
relationship with Christ. Lots of our older youth were also able to come and
help as volunteers, and it was awesome to have them getting involved!
This weekend we also had a Youth Mass on
Sunday evening. Many families and members of the community came to take part,
and the readings, serving and offering were all done by the youth.
God has already done amazing things in
Beauce this year, and we can’t wait to see the fruit the next few months will
bring!
God bless,
Julie
