Pastor Joell Haugan John Giesbrecht & Sandy Ryerson Step By Step We Have An Anchor "Real fellowship is so much more than just showing up at services. It is experiencing life together. It includes unselfish loving, honest sharing, practical serving, sacrificial giving, sympathetic comforting, and all the other 'one another' commands found in the New Testament." ~ Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life TEEN CHALLENGE SPECIAL INVITATION If you are free Saturday, September 23, maybe you want to go to Saskatoon for the Teen Challenge Fall Appreciation Gala! It starts at 6 p.m. with a lasagna dinner, prepared by the students of Teen Challenge SK. (Dinner seating is limited to 200 people, so you will need to call in your reservation SOON!) At 7:30, there will be a program with special music, testimonies, and speaker, Serge LeClerc. To add even more to the excitement, we had a letter today announcing that Howie, our sponsored student, will be graduating from Teen Challenge a little earlier than expected! Howie s graduation will be celebrated in conjunction with the Fall Gala. They write: Howie is so thankful for the way God has transformed his life in the past year. Howie wanted us to thank you for your prayers regarding God s direction for his life. God certainly has given him a purpose and plan for his future, as he looks forward to doing an internship here at Teen Challenge SK. Howie also plans to attend Bible college after his internship is complete.
