Week 4 - Bible Study 1
Dear brothers and sisters,
Getting into Week 4 of Michelmas Term I hope you are not too busy to become exhausted. To freshers especially, hope you have more or less settled at Cambridge already :)
This week I've got a few pieces of news and reminders for you -
1. Bible Study 1 (THIS WED)
2. Winter camp
3. Dinner default list
4. Term card
5. Prayer list
******************************************
1. Bible Study 1 (THIS WED)
Many thanks to Uncle Alan for a thorough briefing on the Book of Acts last time. In the coming meeting we will begin by looking at how God called Paul and his fellow worker, Barnabas.
On the term card it says the bible study will be based on Acts chapter 13 but to have a better picture of the history background we will also read the following verses:
Acts 7:54-8:3; 9:1-31;
You are strongly recommended to read through the passages in advance so to facilitate discussion during the Bible Study. Although the passages seem quite long they are pretty descriptive so shouldn't take too long to read. If you don't have a Bible in hand you can read the above passages from below:
English:
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%207:54-8:3;%209:1-31;%2013:1-52&version=31
Chinese:
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%207:54-8:3;%209:1-31;%2013:1-52;&version=22
There will be seekers' group and group-based quiet-time sharing this week.
******************************************
2. Winter camp
Another reminder for Winter Camp! If you haven't signed up for a place, do it quickly before places run out! You can contact Anna(anna.wong@cantab.net) or Cherry(cww24@cam.ac.uk) for further details.
******************************************
3. Dinner default list
Do you come to Joshua's dinner every Wednesday yet is tired of having to send in emails to reserve meals every week? We have set up a dinner default for regular diners. If you haven't put your name down on the list, send an email to jfdinner@yahoo.co.uk and we'll reserve a delicious meal for you every Wednesday.
******************************************
4. Term card
Most of you should have got a paper copy of Joshua's Michelmas Term term card. Alternatively you could download an electronic copy from our website (Term Card session).
******************************************
5. Prayer list
Have you realised we have a prayer list on Joshua's website? It contains JF or CCCC related prayer items. Prayer is one key foundation stone for running a fellowship and a church and we encourage you not only to pray for brothers and sisters in Christ, but also for our fellowship and church.
If you have any prayer items which you would like to add on the prayer list please let Jowie(chjy2@cam.ac.uk) know.
******************************************
Thanks for bearing with this relatively long email and hope to see you on Wednesday!
Dinner at 6.30pm as usual and you're very welcome to come and help.
If you are going to be late for dinner please send an email to jfdinner@yahoo.co.uk as well so we can reserve a dish for you.
*** DINNER ***
Joanna's group will be cooking dinner this week.
Anyone who can come to help with cooking and/or washing up, please let Joanna (otjw2@cam.ac.uk) know and arrive at Henry Martyn Hall at 5:30pm.
IMPORTANT: PLEASE email jfdinner@yahoo.co.uk if you are not on default list but would like to have dinner (with subject: I would like to join for dinner this Wednesday!). This is essential as we need to prepare enough food for everybody.
Love in Christ,
Helen
On behalf of Joshua Fellowship
