ANGLICAN DIOCESAN YOUTH COUNCIL (A.D.Y.C.) REGION 6 MEETING
The A.D.Y.C. Region 6 which comprises P.Y.F. representatives from St. Thomas’ Cathedral, St. Basil Batu Kawa, St. Paul Siol Kandis, St. Faith Kenyalang, St. Francis Kota Samarahan and St. Francis Lundu will be holding its meeting at the St. Paul’s Parish Hall, Siol Kandis on Saturday, 5th September 2009 at 9.00 a.m. As we are the host, it is expected that all P.Y.F. members will come and assist.
PARISH YOUTH FELLOWSHIP (P.Y.F.) PRAYER FESTIVAL
Tomorrow, 31.8.2009 is the Parish Youth Fellowship Prayer Festival where members of the P.Y.F. are encouraged to pray either as individuals or in groups in their own home or meeting places, e.g. at the Church, Chapel and Extension Centre. The theme for the Prayer Festival is on James 5:16… The prayer of a good person has a powerful effect. This is a yearly affair. Let us bless our prayer warriors on their intention. "Prayer is a plant, the seed of which is sown in the heart of every Christian. If it is well cultivated and nourished it will produce fruit, but if it is neglected, it will wither and die."

A LOVING FATHER
Matthew 6:9, "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name."
MATTHEW 6:9-13
Although God was referred to as "our Father" 13 times in the Old Testament, Jesus' frequent use of this title brought a whole new understanding of our relationship with God. Jesus referred to God as His father over 150 times, and He spoke of God as being our father 30 times. This infuriated the religious Jews of Jesus' day who considered it blasphemy to call God their father, because they understood that to mean they were equal with God (Jn. 5:17-18).
This title has become so common in the church today that we, many times, don't perceive its real significance. The revelation that we are instructed to call God "our Father" reveals the kind, gentle, loving nature of our God (1 Jn. 4:8). Paul amplifies this by using the term "Abba Father" (Rom. 8:15), which is an affectionate term that a young child would use for his father, corresponding to our English word, "daddy."
We are being instructed here to recognize our relationship with God and praise Him for it. It's a relationship that goes beyond any human relationship we could ever have here on this earth. It's a relationship of belonging to a father, who loves us because we are His. Run to Him, drop all pretense and formality, and call Him "Daddy."
ADYC Region 6 akan menganjurkan Retreat bermula pada 27-29 November 2009 di Gunung Singai, di Bau.
