Excellent Carnival Camp planning meeting

We had a wonderful planning meeting yesterday for the 2019 Carnival Camp which will start exactly in a month's time. 12 gathered on a Saturday evening for a meeting which lasted a bit over 2 hours. By the end we had worked out a complete schedule for the camp and divided responsibilities between different people/groups.

The theme this year will be "Connected to Christ", based on John 15:4-5, seeking to emphasize the need for living out true christianity in everyday life and not just in church!

Pastor Rafael (Teixeira) will bring the opening general introductory message in the opening service on the Saturday night (March 2nd). 

On the Sunday the youth (Louisa, Rayla, Brenda, Ray & Mailson) will take the day discussing how to remain connected to Christ in a world of Digital Media (Netflix, TV, Music, Books, Social Media).

On the Monday Pastor Rafael, Andreia & Marah Danielle will lead the day talking about the importance of the Bible and Prayer, so as to remain connected to Christ.

On the Tuesday Philip will speak on remaining connected to Christ whilst evangelizing your own family and in the other service I will speak on relationships, male chauvinism, feminism and the likes and remaining connected to Christ amidst all this.

Liz will as usual coordinate the logistics of the whole event, expected to attract hundreds, and I will lead the overall spiritual and sporting programme. Please pray.

If anyone can contribute to helping poorer families not miss the camp it would be appreciated. To feed people and maintain everything clean, and other running costs, people pay 30 pounds, for the 4-day camp, which is pretty cheap - but many don't have this money. Please send duly earmarked donations to the EAB treasurer and let us know you have sent please so that we can allow for this help coming. Thank you.
