I’m somewhat excited that Australia has finally made it into the World Cup Soccer Finals!!! [If you don't know what I'm talking about read about it here...] You may be unaware that in my previous life soccer came before everything. It was all I cared about and definately came before following Jesus. I’m thankful to God that he has changed me and helped me to turn from the idol of soccer to trust in Jesus. Yesterday at Terrigal High School lunchtime group we were reminded of what will last into eternity:

For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. 1 Timothy 4:8 [niv]

Be encouraged to invest in the things that will last.

One of the things that we’ve seen in Hebrews is how Jesus is better… this week we are going to see how much better he is than Moses.

Over the last week I have noticed no less than 7 sets of shoes that have been flung up onto powerlines around Erina. My guess is that it’s the latest craze of Erina High students. The shoe shops at Erina Fair are loving all these teenagers having to come in and buy new shoes!! Have you seen the shoes???

Welcome to this bumper issue of ccecyouth breaking news!

////THIS FRIDAY NIGHT – Year 7 & 8 will be having separate group nights on November 4. If you haven’t yet heard from your leader give them a call… if you don’t have their number call David on 0428-532-665. Year 9 will be joining the year 10-12s at the Shed as they finish their series in Habakkuk. This will be a good night for the year9s to get a taste of senior youth group ready for next year.

////YEAR 6 SPECIAL INVITATION – On November 11 & 18 we would love to have year6s join us at Triple F to help them with their transition to this group next year. The 2 nights are FREE… if you can encourage any suitable year 6s to come along that would be helpful. We meet at Erina High Hall from 7-9pm.

////TREK - If you missed out on the TREK reading notes on the weekend download them directly from here or from tools. Even if you can’t finish them before Sunday have a go at a couple of days worth. Parents we’d love it if you could keep asking your teenager how they are going with reading the Bible and ask them what they’ve been learning.

The following quote is off a website about a missionary named Ferdie Flores. An sms has been spreading around like wild fire suggesting that he was about to be executed… it’s false and below is the official statement from the website. By all means continue to pray for this man and his family as they seek to proclaim Jesus in a hostile environment in East Timor.

“The information you have received is not correct. That information has been going all over the Philippines and even to the States the last couple of days. Actually Ferdie and his family have experienced quite a bit of persecution recently instigated by the Roman Catholic Church. Several threats have been made by priests, but there has not been any physical harm done to Ferdie as of yet. Although last week a mob of about 250 people did surround Ferdie with stones, sticks, and machetes, but the Lord intervened and the crowd was dispersed without incident. As of now things are calm, but could erupt at any time. Ferdie has requested much prayer. But, he was never arrested and was never scheduled for execution as was reported. Hopefully this will clear things up for you. Thank you for writing.”
