HELLO FELLOW OCF CLAYTONITES!
Are you feeling the motivation to study hard now? Something I learnt from a psychology journal is that people perform better if they forgive themselves if they procrastinate. So instead of beating yourself up and feeling guilty for procrastinating, just forgive yourself (and ask God to forgive you =P) and move on to work even harder. Let everything that we do reflect His glory and not for our own pursuit of success. So going onto what's happening this week...
Announcements:
PRAYER
Every Wednesday, 2-3pm @ Piano Room 1 (that's at the campus centre basement) and
Every Friday, 6.15pm @ R3 (just before OCF meetings)
Do join us to pray, for prayer is everything. It brings us closer to God and brings change in this earth we're living in.
WINTER CAMP 2010
1. Super special earlybird $75 is only available by this Friday OCF
2. For those who are going to register this OCF, please bring deposit $20
28 MAY - 7PM, FRIDAY @ R3 : "MISSIONS AND EVANGELISM WEEK"
This week we're going to have an exciting and interactive time! So DON'T MISS THIS! We will be covering on topics such as - what God is doing in the world today? What is His purpose? What is our role in God's Kingdom? How does that relate to us personally? Dr Ian Grant from Harvest Bible College will be coming to speak to us. Be prepared to receive lots from God! Do bring paper and pen too!
Let us all be reminded to be True Worshippers, seeking God in Spirit and in Truth. When we come together on Fridays, let us unite together to truly desire, love and obey our precious Lover.
So see you all there!
Fighting! Ganbatte! Jia You! Hurrah! =P

We're together again!
Helloooo Claytonites!
How has the week been doing for you ppl? I know its been tiring and stressful for most as the semester is coming to an end, but I'm sure we can take a break on a friday night and COME for OCF!
I'm pretty sure most of us enjoyed our respective girls/guys night session last friday, and it was good that we had our own time to share with one another (something new for the guys), but yea its time we all come together again as brothers & sisters of Christ.
So as usual its on;
Friday, 21 May
7pm (All are welcome to join for prayer at 6.20pm)
Rotunda 3 (same place - building 8 in Monash Uni, between Menzies and Matheson)
We're having Bible Study on 'Truly Loud' which underlines our theme of the year, and this concludes all 5 lessons we've learnt up to so far. BE excited and hungry for more, especially since its the last Bible study of the semester!
* Do take note, that prayer meetings will still be conducted every Wednesdays from 2-3pm at Piano room 1 located at the lower ground floor of Campus Centre. Make it a point to come and join us if you can. Also if you have any prayer requests, please feel free to let Faith know – 0422 152 040/chinzjinghui@gmail.com.
On a side note, there is MHOP-united (monash house of prayer united) meeting of the semester on:
Monday 24 May
5pm-7pm
Room: R7 (rotunda, building 8)
Basically, its a prayer meeting to not only focus on unifying the christian clubs and communities around campus but to also encourage and empower the young and old christians alike in the power of prayer!
Last but not least, keep 2 - 4 July free for Winter Camp! Registration opens this Friday!
Hope to see you!
Cheers,
Calvin

Hello guys and girls! (:
Hello folks!
Sorry this email comes two million years late (I mean, two days)! And you know what? It's worth it :D Because what's coming our way is gonna be goooooood!
Hey men! GUYS' NIGHT // 7PM @ R3
Briefly, it'll be laser tag + dinner + sharing! As Kang Wei said (part jokingly, part honestly), no girls ≠ guys don't turn up! Haha. We're having a separate guys/girls session is because we believe there are different things God wants to speak to both, so yups, let's get open and hungry to what God wants to say and do...
Hey ladies! GIRLS' NIGHT // 7PM @ 1/24 Myriong
Some of us girls are already very excited for this! Heh.
Venue: 1/24 Myriong which is Lynette and Jared's house (no, Jared won't be home – he's a guy ha ha)
Dress code: Autumn! (Think red, orange, yellow, brown...)
Food: Comfort food (arranged by cell – your cell leaders would have contacted you). This is just finger food so please eat your dinner before coming.
Bring: Love exchange – anything which represents "love" to you; an item/object that's small and not costly, yet meaningful, to exchange with another girl + Quilt/pillow – so we're all cosy and warm! + Bible, notebook, pen + open hearts – we really look forward to what Esther Oakley has to share with us!) + A girl friend – she'll definitely be blessed
If you need transport, please contact your cell leaders or Ivie (0430 201 449).
WINTER CAMP // 2 - 4 JULY
Keep those dates free! People who miss out on winter camp... miss out on a lot :/ Winter camp is always a great time of bonding for Clayton (some people say it's better than Easter camp, in that cosy sense), reconnecting and/or growing deeper in our relationships with God and people! Registration starts next week.
To end off, stay sane, even as some of us have begun mugging for exams!
Isaiah 26:3 (The Message) says,
God is, like, seriously awesome man.
^_^ love, Faith

We're together again!
Hello dear peoples (:
What's up this week?
Wednesday PRAYER // 2 - 3pm @ Piano Rooms
This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us - whatever we ask - we know that we have what we asked of Him. – 1 John 5:14-15
Friday OCF // 7pm @ R3
How was FOF last week? I definitely had fun :D But also, I missed us ALL gathering TOGETHER! So yups this week, back to R3 whoopee! Followed by digging into God's word! Be there or be (square). Prayer is at 6.20pm.
+++
Yesterday at Citylife Church service, the song God Speaking by Mandisa was performed. And I really loved it (: It speaks about how God is in everything, everywhere, speaking to us, getting our attention, showing us Him.
Whatever it is we are going through, He is here. With you.
What intimacy. This week, my prayer for each of us (myself included), is that we will get to know this God. So big, so great, so powerful, yet so personal – He knows each of us intimately, and longs for each of us to know Him personally.
Ask Him for a greater hunger, for Him; He is a love worth knowing (:
In His very sweet love,
Faith (:

Who knows how He'll get a hold of us?
Get our attention to prove He is enough
He'll do and He'll use whatever He wants to
To tell us, I love You
