Ok, so I am a little late on getting this one posted...I guess it just got lost in the shuffle this week. So we're studying Matthew 4:12-25 tonight (Sunday), starting at 6:30pm in the Fireside Room at the Abbotsford Church of the Nazarene. Childcare is provided and we should be wraping things up by around 8:00pm or so. See you soon! Oh, and feel free to leave any commens on what you think about this passage!
Blessings,
Graham

CAYR Coffee House at 6:30pm this Sunday
OK, so I've decided to enter the readings as their own blog entry so that you can respond to each one if you want to post your thoughts or engage others in conversation concerning the topic we discussed on the Sunday night (if you want to respond to the passages we looked at last Sunday, do so on the first "Readings" post I made). So, this Sunday (January 21st) the Bible passage we will be looking at is Matthew 3:13 – 4:11, so if you want to start thinking about it (or blogging about it) check out this passage! See you at 6:30pm (childcare provided)!

Readings
If I get my act together, or we have a guest speaker, we'll post the Scripture reading that we will be discussing ahead of time (or on the day of) so you can read the passage before you come, or if you miss a night, you can read the passage so you can catch up. This is all optional of course...you're not required to read anything to show up...it just might help you out. They'll be posted as comments, so click on "comments" to view the upcoming readings.
Conversation
This post is where we can ask questions, discuss the teaching we engaged in together on Sunday night, or converse about any issues we want to talk about, so feel free to "comment" away! We may need to create new posts or a whole other blog to keep things straight, so keep your eye on this blog for changes to the format.
Gatherings
This post will be for you to communicate your social gatherings (watching a hockey game, going out for dinner, going camping, going skiing/snowboarding, watching a movie, going for a hike, etc.) that you would like to open up to our young adults community. This way, we can just check the blog and find out what's happening and if we're interested, meet you at your social gathering.
To see what gatherings are happening, click on "comments" and you'll be taken to the comments page. To post a gathering, just click on "comments" and enter your gathering as a comment. When you post your gathering, be sure to include details such as date, time, location, cost, and if you need people to tell you they're coming. The further ahead you post your gathering, the more likely people will be able to make it, but feel free to be as spontaneous as you like. If people need to contact you to let you know if they're coming, it's probably not the best idea to leave your contact info (other than maybe your email), so just have them phone or email me if they don't have your contact info and I'll send it to them.

Welcome to CAYR!
CAYR stands for "Come As You Are" and is the Young Adults group at the Abbotsford Church of the Nazarene. The term, "Young Adults" includes anyone from any background that has graduated from high school and is up to 30 something (or anyone who feels like a young adult)!. We call our selves, "Come As You Are" because we want people to do just that. Whether someone is a long time Christian, a new Christian, not a Christian, interested in Christianity, not interested in Christianity, having a great day, having a terrible day (you get the picture), we want them to come be a part of community just as they are. So, we invite people to our Sunday night coffee house (childcare provided) where we meet to engage in relationships, conversation, and the teachings of Jesus, and to our social gatherings to come just as they are.
This blog is meant to be an extension of our community. So far, there will be 3 sections that we want you to interact with. One will be called "Gatherings". This post will be for you to communicate your social gatherings (watching a hockey game, going out for dinner, going camping, going skiing/snowboarding, watching a movie, going for a hike, etc.) that you would like to open up to our young adults community. This way, we can just check the blog and find out what's happening and if we're interested meet you at your social gathering (so be sure to include details). It's easy, just post your gathering as a comment! Another entry will be called "Conversation". This entry is where we can ask questions, discuss the teaching we engaged in together on Sunday night, or converse about any issues we want to talk about. The final post will be called "Readings". If I get my act together, or we have a guest speaker, we'll post the Scripture reading ahead of time (or on the day of) so you can read the passage ahead of time that we will be discussing, or if you miss a night, you can read the passage so you can catch up (this is all if you want...you're not required to read anything to show up...it just might help you out).
So, that's it for our first post on our CAYR blog! I look forward to seeing our community grow!
