OLIVE NOTES | 21 April 2009
On the Third Day, He Rose Again.

 
Other Happenings:

Postcards from PaulPOSTCARDS FROM PAUL is an inventive look at one of the complex characters in the Catholic tradition. He was a wolf who ate the lambs of the first Church but became a great shepherd. Paul was a man who worked for his keep and preached the good news. Paul was a man capable of both old testament wrath and child like tenderness. Who was this man? Postcards from Paul attempts to reveal more about this great character by building on his writing and imagining what his life must have been like. This event will be at OLPS on 9 May 2009 Saturday, 8:00pm @ OLPS Canteen! IT'S FREE!

Hi everyone,

Easter is over but I hope you are still rejoicing in the risen Lord? Easter marks the new liturgical year for the Catholic Church! Therefore it is a glorious time indeed. And we need to ask the very pertinent question - so what happens after Easter? After Easter, we begin a 7 week liturgical season which climaxes at Pentecost. So it is not over yet!

Meanwhile, our hearts also go out to all of you taking your exams now. >> Click here for prayers for a student (other prayers)

EASTER STOMP! TWITTER, & FACEBOOK!

More about recent happenings, the recent Easter Stomp was a daring gig by the YMM members, especially since there were only 5 or so YMM-ers trying to create the STOMP effect. But it was really cool. Watch the clip now at youtube >> Watch recent Easter Stomp

APRIL Youth Prayer Meet!And there was the recent APRIL prayer meeting when we focused on Onion Peeling! We learnt about our "layers"... aka our different levels of identity and reflected on how this affects our openness to love and be loved! Read more

Finally, social media. We're kinda getting the hang of this, facebook, twitter... are you online somehow? Add us! You can now find us on twitter. Anyone else on Twitter? And of course,... facebook!

A Prayer - When You are Fearful >> Father God, I am feeling fearful today. Life seems to be uncertain and out of control. I recall that the Bible tells me “Perfect love casts out fear”. You alone are Perfect Love, so would you please cast out the fear I feel and replace it with confidence in your sufficiency. Psalm 121 tells me that you never slumber or sleep, so I will trust you to take care of me - moment by moment, day by day. In Jesus name. Amen

Wishing you a blessed week ahead!

God Bless,
