OCF CLAYTON ON WEEK 6 SAYS, "HARROW BARROW MASHIMARO...!!!" :)

HARROW BARROW MASHIMARO...!!!

It's that time of the week again! Time to be updated of everything OCF has planned for all of u this week! Ain't it oh-so exciting?? And this week is going to be just that much more exciting because there are some new things happening this week!

But firstly, on a more serious note:
How ARE all of you doing? Everyone coping well? It IS already Week 6, and this is when all the work starts piling up to our eyebrows. But know this: GOD IS, HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS BE OUR STRENGTH. Psalms 18:32 says, "It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect." Amen? And even as much as we can be so overwhelmed by all the things that we have to do, I want to challenge you guys to just STOP, LOOK, and LISTEN. No...Not for the oncoming traffic (Well, actually, ALSO for oncoming traffic), but to stop, take a breath and step back from everything you need to do, look to God and seek Him on what He has planned for you for the week, and listen to what He tells you. You'll be surprised as to how much more refreshed you will feel after you do that. Try it!

Cool beans!

As for OCF this week...Here are some things that you need to know!
________________________________________

1. GUYS/GIRLS NIGHT
This week, OCF will not be the usual at its usual place in R3, because it's the much awaited, and much anticipated GUYS & GIRLS NIGHT! No...It's not some kind of dodgy night of speed-dating, but it's a night where the guys will be doing their own thing, and the girls will be doing our own much-more-exciting-event-that-will-totally-knock-the-socks-off-guys-night thing! Does it sound exciting? You want to know why? COS.IT.IS.

For the DUDES:
The guys will be playing a game of TOUCH RUGBY, followed by an awesome time of bonding over dinner and ending the night with a DVD on a VERY interesting topic. You guys WON'T WANT TO MISS OUT ON THIS.

An important note, though: Due to daylight savings, Guys' Night has been pushed forward to 5PM, where you'll be meeting everyone at CARLSON AVENUE RESERVE (Map: http://maps.google.com.au/maps?q=hilltop+avenue&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wl)

For more information, visit their FB page: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=207639065929667, and please don't forget to RSVP as well! :)

For the CHICKAS:
The girls, on the other hand, will be coming together to watch a movie, along with a pizza dinner and dessert of homemade brownies and ice-cream! Not only that, we will also be heading to the nearby park after for a little semi-midnight picnic, where we can just lay there together, discussing and laughing over girlie issues. So, BRING YOUR CURIOUSITY CAPS ALONG, GIRLS!

3. EASTER CAMP 2011
EASTER CAMP is just around the corner! Easter Camp is a time where OCF Victoria can gather together and spend 4 days together, and just spend some time away from the world to remember what Easter is all about. Not to mention all the people we'll meet from UniMelb, Swineburn, Caulfield, etc. etc. It will really be an awesome time soaking in His presence.
