"Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." ~Hebrews 12:2

Junior High Lock-In
We had a great time playing basketball, floor hockey, blacklight volleyball, wall climbing and much more. Also, we learned that in life we tend to pick up alot of baggage and that we can ask Jesus to take that hurt and pain and heal us. Jesus wants to help us, we need to seek Him out for help.

Caroling & 'The Nativity Movie' Night
It was incredibly cold for our caroling night, but we had small and mighty group that went caroling. It was fun to see the reactions of those that we were able to share Christ's love and message to through song. Then a few of us stayed and watched 'The Nativity Story'. A great movie to get a better understanding of what Mary and Joseph may have went through and how Jesus came as a gift to all people. Watching the shepherds and wisemen worship Jesus makes me wonder how we respond to the gift of Jesus. So....what is your response to the gift of Jesus...will you worship Him and bring Him the gift of your heart? Have a Merry Christmas as you meditate on this question.

SARDINES!
Tonight at MYF we played the game of sardines. This was a lot of fun. Also in junior high we learned about the story of Jesus healing the paralytic man and how we need to ask ourselves "what is keeping us from Jesus?" In high school, we talked about the Bible and how we need to read it for ourselves and allow it to change us from the inside out.
Remember, no MYF this coming Sunday (12/14). We are back on track for Dec. 21. Caroling from 5-6:30 and 'The Nativity Story' movie from 6:30-8:30pm. Let me know if you have any questions.
