Youth Cleaning & Kick-Off!!!

Why does "cleaning" make it into the story?? Because mice had a party in the portable over the summer and our awesome team of youth leaders had an adventure cleaning it up!! Upon discovering a nest behind the xbox (next to the stash of dinosours someone hid in there) Kyle and Nikki grabbed a toy lighsaber to begin the fight! And fight they did. Mice were caught. Mice ran into the speakers... so we played dubstep and blew our airhorn into the speaker to try and scare it out. We believe this killed them... but I guess only time will tell. Fear not though! It is now super cleaned and traps are set!
KICK-OFF was awesome. We met at Pritchard Park, talked about the plan for the year ahead (youth Alpha 🙌), and slapped each other with tortillas. (The tortilla challenge: fill your mouth with water and hold it. Rock paper scissors with a friend. Winner slaps the other person with a tortilla. First person to spit out their water loses. It's hilarious) Tortillas aside, we're stoked for another year of learning to walk with the Lord, serving, and laughing together!

Such a great way to kick-off the ministry year with baptisms! Earlier in the day we began church by enjoying breakfast together. Thank you everyone for making this Sunday happen!

Baptisms!

Baptisms!

Recently, some of the local Chinese community reached out to our church family asking for baptism. As a result, we had the great pleasure of conducting a baptism class with these brothers and sisters and on Sunday, August 14th, seven of them took the important step of committing their lives to Christ through the symbol of baptism! What an honor it was to celebrate together. The weather was great; the Okanagan lake was a beautiful backdrop; God is so good. Praise his name! We will be sharing their video testimonies in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!

Men’s BBQ

Brisket, ribs, chicken, and enough variety of salad to keep things righteous. The event was the Men's Ministry kickoff dinner at Shawn's house. About 17 men showed up to eat, play ping pong and have fellowship. The aim of the event was to introduce a new Sunridge Ministry that we hope will call men into a closer walk with the Lord. This important ministry is aimed at men of all ages and will start in the fall. For more information, please reach out to Shawn: shawn@sunridge.org
