The C.H.R.I.S.T. Challenge!

The C.H.R.I.S.T. Challenge!
By Dr. Richard J. Krejcir


Allow Christ to Challenge you to live for the faith!

Commit-myself to a relationship with CHRIST with trust and obedience; through prayer, His word, my actions, and relationships! Matthew 22:36-38

Honor-Christ with all my life with morals and values; through, thoughts, words, and deeds! 1 Timothy 4:12
Respect-my parents and authorities, with love and honor! Ephesians 6:1-3, Romans 3:1

Involve-myself with other Christians with love and encouragement! Hebrews 10:24-25

Seek-God through prayer...relating to Him with all our needs and desires...asking that He bring my friends, work and/or school to spiritual renewal! 2 Chronicles 7:14 If you are a parent, pray this for your children too!

Take-the initiative with bringing Christ’s message to your school or work; with care by prayer. Do not fear, or allow others to miss out on life’s greatest gift and adventure! Acts 1:8

Discussion Questions:

1. Where are you going in your life, what is your direction and source of inspiration?

2. Have you ever dreamed of living like your favorite TV or movie Star?

3. Read John 14: 1-7 concentrate on verses 5 & 6 How is this like a map?

4. Do you think you can receive satisfaction in material things, why or why not?

5. What is your most urgent need?

6. What do you count on?

7. What does God’s Word say, how can you obey?

What would your life be like if you took this challenge seriously?

Awana, Sunday school and the snow!

Hi there,

Hopefully we are reaching the masses here, if you find something out on here send it to your friends or leaders and let them know too.

No Awana on Wed. night!
Sunday school was incredible this last week! We had over 80 kids in chapel and 11 in preschool and 11 in nursery. It was INCREDIBLE! We talked about the 12 days after Christmas and what the song meant. We had Ella W. read scripture in the front and everyone read along and then we lit the advent candles. Work on the homework please.

Kids Church is wonderfully delightful with 17 kids yesterday (thanks Emma M for helping in the nursery, I really appreciated it greatly!). Kids church has homework too.

See ya!

Nov 30th! Lots!

Welcome back, hope you had a wonderful weekend.
Kingdom Quest Sunday school elementary is discovering Christmas in a whole new way! What does God want for Christmas? He wants all of you, not just a few minutes or a few seconds but HE wants ALL of YOU all the time. How? In the morning, say Here I am God, what are we going to accomplish today? Spend time with Him in His Word. Get up just a few min. earlier, drink your coffee or soda with Him. Take Him to the gym as you exercize and read about Him. Give Him the first minutes of your day, rather than the last of your hope or day. You will see a world of difference in all that you are trying to do.

Awana Games Competition

Last year we chose not to go because of Spring Break, well this year, Praise God, it is not on Spring Break, so we will pay our fee and go. Let me be completely honest, it cost us $50 per team to participate, plus we pay for our own shirts that we reuse year after year - we need those shirts back so we can keep our costs low. Our club provides your child with water and a snack.

It will be March 27, 2010
10:30 - Sparks
1:30 - T&T

Cost will be $5.00 per child to play.

Sparks team has 12-17 clubbers on it.
T&T is divided boys and girls
Both teams can have 18 kids max!

We will have 1 Sparks team - unless we have you signed up before Jan 1st.
and 1 Girls and 1 Boys team - unless we have you signed up before Jan. 1st.

If you absolutely do not have this, find Eric - the Game guy or Me- Janette Sanne and let us know.

Awana Bible Quizzing for T&T clubbers. Must be through Discovery or Challenge 4 by January 30. If this is something you would like to do, let the leader know.
