MySpace Club 4 Teens - Nickname: Prince of Peace!

 

Tomorrow afternoon we'll have our
My Space Club 4 Teens
Christmas Party for students and their families.

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

In this way, we've been given a room in Budrio's Library 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: Nickname: Prince of Peace!

From 5.30 pm to 7pm we'll play lots of fun games like: The Nicknames, True or False?, The Christmas Truce of 1914, Speed Debating, Walking Football, How it's Made?, Finding Peace, He'll be called: Prince of Peace.

Then from 7pm families will arrive and we'll engage with the theme of Peace on Earth.

We'll have a speaker from the local Partisan association who will talk about peace during WW2 and our Sofiya who will share about her experience of being in Kiev during the beginning of the war.

Then David Moss, from Peak Trinity Church in Bakewell, will talk abuot Jesus being the true Prince of Peace on earth from Isaiah 9:6.

Jesus Christ is the only reason we can truly live peacefully with God. In Jesus, our fears in death are removed and replaced with the gift of eternal life. Jesus is the true God, and He is able to give us the true peace that nobody else can offer. Jesus said “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”

Christmas Truce Outreach Project - Middle School

Tomorrow morning we'll start our Christmas Truce Outreach Project at Budrio Middle School!

We'll engage with all the 3rd year classes engaging with the theme of the 1914 Christmas Truce!

World War I was ravaging a continent, leaving destruction and rubble in its wake, but from the midst of this dark conflict comes the story of the Christmas Truce of 1914. The Christmas Truce of 1914 has been called 'the miracle on the Western Front' when British and German troops came together to celebrate, share rations and small gifts and play a game of football. But these celebrations and truces did not last long. After Christmas Day, the footballers and soldiers returned to the trenches. The Christmas carols died down and the war sadly resumed. 

With a team from Peak Trinity Church, Bakewell, UK, we'll challenge students to see how events like the Christmas Truce are worth celebrating, but they leave us longing for a lasting peace!

We believe that's the Peace only Jesus can give!

SUNDAY SERVICE: Isaiah 9:6 - For to us a child is born, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor

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

 

 

 

We are glad for the Lord's provision of the meeting room at the social center Magnolia, a well known cultural meeting point right at the centre of Budrio.

At 10.30 we'll start our service with our Christmas series on Isaiah 9:6! 

With Stefano we'll engage with Isaiah 9:6 - For to us a child is born, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor!

Together we'll see the beauty of Christ, the Immanuel, God with us, the Wonderfull Counselor who lead us in the full knowledge of the Father. So with Paul we pray: "that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe." Ephesians 1:17-19

 

 
 
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

Tomorrow we'll continue
our series of meetings:  
Theology for Breakfast! 
Following Luther's Table Talks example, we'll meet from 9 to 11am @ Central Café in Mezzolara where, while enjoying a breakfast with capuccino & croissants, we'll engage with God's Word discovering the beauty of theology in our everyday life!

We'll interact with the module: Gospel Relationships. With Stefano we'll start Unit 7. Marriage.

 

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. 

MySpace Club 4 Teens - Christmas: The People!

 

Tomorrow afternoon we'll have our
My Space Club 4 Teens
for this school year.

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

In this way, we've been given a room in Budrio's Library 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: Christmas: The People!

We'll play lots of fun games like: Candy Crane Craze, Herd The Sheep, Shepherd For The Session, Celebrity Come Dine with Me, Wall-E: The Value of a Diamond Ring, Undervalue, Christmas Shopping List, which will serve as illustrations to Stefano's Talk from Luke 2:8-20. How incredible is that the Good News of Jesus’ birth was told first to the shepherds, who amongst the lowest in the society. Yet they recognised this honour and wasted no time in going to visit baby Jesus and then telling this Good News to everyone. Jesus is the King Redeemer who came to save his people from every nation, gender, age and social class: “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2:10-11
