Monthly Prayer Walk

Hi gang,

Haha.. Love it. Don't you? You may be confused and wondering what I'm talking about... love what? LOVE LIFE! Man it's wonderful to be alive and loving life. A magnificent gift from God, and only He can give us that joy in our hearts to truly love life and live happily; and to receive this joy we must love God with all our hearts and love our neighbors. The greatest commandment is love. One of the was to show God that we love Him is to show love to other people around us... after all they are all God's creation and He loves all of us equally.

Which brings me to what we are doing this Friday evening. We will be going for our monthly prayer walk around the neighborhood and praying for the community. What better way to show love for the people around the church than to pray for them, even when they don't know that we are there.

So come on out to the church at 7:30pm and join us. Last time we were really lead by the Holy Spirit in our prayers and felt the power in prayer, it was awesome! So I encourage you all to come. Hope to see you Friday!

Have a blessed week,
Jarno and Liisa

Special Evening

Hi everyone,

Hope everyone is having a fabulous week! It was nice to get a bit of rain on the weekend, the city and vegetation really needed it... but it wasn't the greatest timing with the Christian outdoor concert going on in Cloverdale and also one of my friends had their wedding on Saturday.

So this Friday night at 8:00pm we have a special service happening at the church. We have a guest speaker and also a guest worship leader who will be there. Many of you know that the Finnish Summer Conference is happening this weekend and this gives an exciting edge to Friday night's meeting. We have been praying for this weekend that God would really pour out His Spirit in a powerful way and we are really looking forward to it. So come on out and be a part of what's sure to be a great meeting. Hope to see you guys there.

Also this Sunday morning service @ 11:00am is going to be a joint meeting in the main sanctuary, it will be in both languages, English and Finnish.

Stay blessed,
Jarno and Liisa

Movies

Hello everyone,

Sorry about the late post this week. Time has just been a blur this week with camp so near and things to do... so this month is really busy with Konffa happening at the church next week and then camp pretty much right after that.

Anyways Liisa and I thought that this Friday we could have a fun outing since we worked so hard at the car wash and all. So how does a night at the movies sound? I thought we could go see Inception, I hear it's a good one and that it's also got good reviews at Christian websites. I thought we could go to the Richmond theater and see the 7:40pm show. What do you guys think? Post in the comments if you are coming so we can get a count and get seats together.

Also come out to our service this Sunday @ 11:00a.m. Liisa ant the guys will be leading us in worship and I will be preaching. We've really been having some good meetings lately so come in check it out.

Be blessed guys,
Jarno and Liisa
