MySpace Club 4 Teens - Food Sharing!

Tomorrow afternoon we'll have
our My Space Club 4 Teens

We organize this club for local kids,
in partnership with Budrio Town Hall
as part of their after-school programme.

In this way, following every Covid-restrictions, we've been given a room in Budrio's Auditorium and social workers are sending some of the kids they follow. 

As part of our club, we also offer help
with their English home-works.

 

 

 

Together we'll engage with the YfC Rock Solid material,
interacting with the theme: 

Food Sharing!

 

We'll play lots of fun games like: Lockdown Cooking, Food Logo Quiz, How to Set a Table, @Matthew's Table, Kids vs Food: Pizza Toppings, Who are You? - Lockdown Home Delivery, Chocolate Challenge, Social Distancing Games, which will serve as illustrations to Stefano's Talk from Matthew 9:9-13, where we'll see who and why is invited @ Jesus' Table, because he said: "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick... For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners."

AppMatthew - Mid-Week Bible Study

Tomorrow evening we'll have our AppMatthew (Applying Matthew's Gospel), our series of Mid-Week Bible Studies in which we'll keep interacting with what we're learning through the preaching in our Sunday services. 

Stefano will lead this time where as church-family we'll engage with what we are learning from Matthew 10-11.

SUNDAY SERVICE: Matthew 11:16-30 - Be like little children who receive and not like children who complain.

Tomorrow we'll have our morning service to worship God together and to proclaim His Word in Budrio.

 

 

 

 

 

We are glad to enjoy in person services at the Auditorium, a former church building reconverted to be a cultural meeting point right at the centre of Budrio. 

At 10.30 we'll start our service with our series on Matthew's Gospel - The King & his Kingdom! 

With Stefano we'll engage with Matthew 11:16-30 - Be like little children who receive and not like children who complain.

Together we'll see see the beauty of Christ who, to every generation exhausted from complaining at him to affirm their false independence and oppressed by the heavy laden of man-made religion, says: - "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28

  
 

We'll have a children's talk where kids will engage with the same Bible passage and families will have activities to keep interacting with God's Word during the week.

Theology for Breakfast with Crosslands

Tomorrow we'll continue our series of meetings: Theology for Breakfast! 

Due to the new COVID restrictions for public meetings, we'll meet online through the video conferencing app ZOOM.

We'll interact with Crosslands module: Gospel Relationships. With Stefano we'll start Unit 2. Conflict.

 

Relationships are fundamental to our identity, yet they are fraught with difficulty, fear, conflict and uncertainty. Coming to Christ puts us automatically into relationship with a community of his people. The gospel enables relationships to fulfil their purpose and design. The gospel transforms all our relationships. It resolves conflict, and gives new purpose to friendships, parenting and marriages. Together we'll discover how we can be freed to serve and love others with gospel intentionality.

As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love."

SEEKERS Club15-25: seek, and you will find! - I am the way, and the truth, and the life.

Prayer Meeting in preparation for the Acts29 Church Planting Sunday.

Tomorrow evening for our prayer meeting on Zoom, as church family we'll focus on the coming first Acts29 annual event of Church Planting Sunday.

Since on Sunday we'll have limited time due to the restart of our in person services, we'll dedicate the whole of our prayer meeting to the importance of church planting and the Acts29 global planting ministry.

 

We'll then specifically intercede for the Acts29 Rural Collective which is focused on churches planting rural churches and our partnership with Buffalo City Church, an Acts29 rural church in Jamestown, ND, US.

For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you." Matthew 10:19-20

Due to new COVID restrictions on in person meetings in our region, we'll meet on ZOOM. 

At 10.30 we'll start our Easter service, where all our church kids will read from Luke 23:44-24:12 and together we'll engage with the meaning of Jesus being the Passover Lamb on whom the LORD has laid the iniquity of us all Isaiah 53, and of the Curtain of the Temple which was torn in two at Jesus' death!

 

 

We'll celebrate the Lord's Supper from Luke 22:14-20.

Then we'll see the beauty of Christ and God's eternal plan of salvation, by answering the angels' question:  

Why do you seek the living among the dead? 

He is not here, but has risen!

 

Together we'll see how the whole Old Testament was the preparation for the Easter event, and how the rest of the New Testament serves to tell the world about this event - Jesus' resurrection is the central point of everything.
Our faith is based on Christ's resurrection, because it is the testimony that Jesus defeated sin and death once and for all, this is Easter that we too want to announce to everyone!

Good Friday Zoom video party - The Jesus Film Project

 

Tomorrow evening we'll meet as church family for Good Friday.

Due to COVID restrictions on in person meetings, we'll have a Zoom video party, where together, kids and adults, we'll watch The Jesus Film Project.

We'll have an introduction time before the movie, followed by a prayer time at the end.

Jesus (also known as The Jesus Film Project) is a 1979 biblical drama film directed by Peter Sykes and John Krish, and produced by John Heyman. Jesus is described as the most-watched motion picture of all time, in addition to being the most translated film of all time.

Shot on location in Israel, the film was financed primarily by Campus Crusade for Christ and was released without production or cast credits, as producer John Heyman declared that the creators of this picture were “simply being translators” of the New Testament's Gospel of Luke, “so nobody will know who produced or directed the film.” The end of the film states that the Good News Bible was used during filming, and instead of telling a parallel story or embellishing the biblical account like other biblical films, the filmmakers chose to adhere to the Gospel of Luke as closely as possible.
