The Plans

Hi guys,

So I thought I'd get this weeks post out earlier than last weeks! There's quite a few things coming up and things we need to go over:

1. Connected Night (Friday)
2. Drive in Movies
3. Mars Hill Church
4. Kid's camp

So let's start the list off with this Friday's upcoming Connected Night. We have been asked to take care of the little ones (the kids) and for this event, so we are going to have a meeting on Wednesday, June 16th, at around 5:00pm (for now, this time might change) at the church. If you want to be a part of the planning and can't make this meeting on Wednesday you can write your ideas down in the comments section, send a message via e-mail or Facebook to Liisa or myself, or simply call or text us. This Friday's Connected Night is a special one, we are going to have a special guest speaker attending so it's pretty cool. So come on out and help out, it's a great chance to serve others.

Second order of business. The drive in movies. We have 2 choices depending on when people can make it, or want to go. Either this Saturday, June 19th, at 9:45pm, the first show starts. Toy Story 3, Prince of Persia, and Alice in Wonderland are playing. Then we also have the choice of going next week Friday night, June 25th, and there is no schedule up yet at their website of what is playing for that weekend. So please post in the comments section which night you guys want to go and we'll have to go with the majority. Also feel free to invite your friends!

Third order of business. We are going to Mars Hill Church in Seattle to hear Mark Driscoll preach on June 27th. This is the Sunday of next week. Mark will be preaching on Luke 8:40-56, Jesus heals a woman and a girl. We will be going to the 5pm service in the Ballard location. Also we will be having two rides leaving at different times. The first ride will be leaving with Liisa and I early in the morning around 7am and the second with Klaus after the church services are over around 1pm. Space is limited in each ride so if you want a spot let us know ASAP. I can take 3 and Klaus can fit 5-6 people. If other people want to drive too just let us know. Also do not forget to get insurance for that day in the USA... because if something happens that insurance will really save you a lot of money and stress. So, I really want to urge you guys to come, Mars Hill Church is a church full of young people, that is growing rapidly, God is really moving there. I`m hoping and praying that God will really speak to our hearts there, and we leave touched by the Holy Spirit.

Fourth order of business. Kids Camp this summer is happening on August 22nd-27th, and we need all the help with staff we can get. So if you are able to come and help out as a counselor please let me know ASAP!

So there is quite a lot of things coming up and I really need to hear back from you guys on these things. It really helps in planning, so please just take a few minutes and let me know. You can also call me at 778-223-4490. Thanks a bunch!

Also this Sunday`s service will be at 11am in the fellowship hall. I will have the privilege of preaching this Sunday, and it is my first sermon on a Sunday morning so come on out and support me. ;)

Remember to keep Christ as the center of your lives. Prayer is powerful and it really makes a difference. Take some time wherever you are this week and speak to God. That`s what it is, speaking to God. Is that not cool to think about, you are actually speaking to God. Wow, it blows my mind to really think of it that way.

Blessings,
Jarno and Liisa
