Bridging Light Updates!

Hey people,

Here's a big thank you to those who had helped us in the Youth and Young Adults Commissioning and the F.I.S.H event yesterday! It was really gratifying to see the whole parish applauding the leaders after their commissioning. It's a way to show the leaders that the parish cares and is fully supportive of their hard work. May God continue to guide the leaders in their personal and ministry lives.

1) A drama production by The Potter's Clay coming your way soon...

4) A testimonial project by the young people for the adults - It's time to re-engage the adults into the passion of being in love with God! We are starting a testimonial project where the youths and young adults can express their struggles, pains and joys while being in love with Jesus. The aim is to gather all these testimonials into a BOOK! When people read it, they go "Ah! So I'm not the only guy with this problem!" We are aiming to publish this book by the end of this year. So if you do have testimonies, please do not hesitate to go to this form:https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dEZmUkxyeWJ1Y05pOTR6dHBibTBxM0E6MQ and submit. It's ok to be anonymous!

5) Intercessories - Once every 2 weeks, a group of young adults and youths will come together to pray for the needs of everyone in the parish. If you have any petitions, please send them back to our email. This week we pray for students who had just started their studies... again.

6) Get in On the Acts with Thomas Smith!

Tue-Thu, 20-22 Jul | 7.45 - 9.30pm | Main Church | All are welcome
Beginning with Christ and St Francis of Assisi as our examples and guides, we reflect on how we too can concretely restore our Church and our lives through the Word, Worship and Works of Mercy.

Fri-Sat, 23-24 Jul | 7.45 - 9.30pm (Fri), 8.30a | Main Church | $25.00 per participant (inclusive of lunch and workbook)

Thomas Smith continues by exploring the early development of the Church and the role of the apostles in spreading God’s message to the ends of the earth. He challenges us as modern Christians to think about how we too can become apostles for Christ in our lives today.
