So if you weren't able to make it out to the Emerge retreat this weekend you missed a really good time. Think epic poker matches, awesome worship, and a speaker who wasn't afraid to say the things he needed to say to get his point across. To give you a taste of what it I have linked in Jim's message that he delivered to another church below (this is pretty much exactly what he said the first night at Emerge). For those of you who don't know Jim is the leader of Visionledd a ministry which is helping the church respond to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Africa. He has a heart and a passion to see the church rise up and respond to this crisis out of a pursuit for righteousness and justice. Take a listen but be warned Jim will push you, challenge you, and make you want to get on a plane to Africa right now.

Welcome Back All
Happy New Year and Welcome back All,
I hope you all had a good break and are eager to get back to your studies and lives here at SFU. We've missed you here at UCM and want to hear how you are doing and how your holidays were so drop by and see us at our table out in front of the IFC from Tuesday to Thursday this week.
While you are at the table give us your schedule and sign up to be a core bible study this semester. The topic this semester will be The Spiritual Life and we will be covering topics ranging from "Who is God?" to "What Role Should Money Play in My Life?".
As well the deadline for the Emerge retreat is fast approaching so if you haven't registered yet...do it now. Emerge is our province wide UCM retreat from Jan.18-20 and is always a great time of both learning and discipleship and hanging out having fun (so many board games so little time). This year our speaker is Jim Cantelon who will be sharing his passion for the justice and righteousness of God and what that means to us as Christians. For more info or to register go to www.ucmonline.ca and click on the events link. I hope to see you all there.
