We've created a poll to get a consensus for what day would be best for our
"Denominational Differences" Discussion Group in February. Please take a moment and go to the
RPC YA Group Blog and you should find a poll on the left. Select the best day/time of day for you. We're hoping to have a guest speaker that day to give us a more in-depth view for this discussion.
Thanks to those that came and joined us for our January discussion on "What is, and How to Manage Stress" If anyone would like the handout from that evening, please let us know.
Also, even though the Eagles Loss to the Cardinals, we enjoyed a "win of a day" this past Sunday at the Art Museum! We started out with a meal together and just chatted after the Worship Service. (Glad that Bob, Michelle and Kevin Joined us for that portion!) With the light snow that fell, God provided a wonderful wintry landscape to enjoy viewing on our way, close (free) parking for our ride, and helped us find a few pieces of art to share some history with. The Art Museum is truly too large to enjoy all the galleries in the short time we visited, but we hope you enjoyed and learned a bit about what we were able to see. It was a great afternoon to be with you all.
If you want to learn a little more about the symbolism in Christian Art you can go online to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and
Search their Collections . Some also have audio files embedded that you can listen to. Those audio file Podcasts are also available through an
ITunes link for free. Another interesting and well compiled resource of Christian Symbolism is found on the personal page of
Walter E. Gast
The Next verified Date we have an outing planned is Sunday, February 8th after Services. Amy and I are planning to go to the Valley Forge RV show - and you're invited too! We'll have WaWa Hoagies before as with the Art Museum outing, so even if you just want to fellowship a bit with the YAs and enjoy a hoagie after services and NOT go to the RV show - that's fine too! If you need a ride to the RV show - drop us an email!
Don't forget - the Agape Feast is coming up on Saturday Evening February the 21st, 2009. Great meal , and great entertainment by faces you'll know! As usual I've heard the entertainment committee has a few tricks up their sleeve.....
Last but not least - remember - Wednesday Nights are re:Fresh Nights! 7:30pm Come to Sing and praise our Lord, as we continue through Acts led by Pastor Bronc - time to meet and chat afterwards.It's your time to be refreshed - Mid-Week!
We'd love to hear from you - just how you're doing - or if you need help - maybe we can be your stepping stone! Drop us a line - anytime!
With love and prayers,
Mike and Amy
