***Important Events in March***

College & Careers - Saturday March 3 @ 7:30 pm

Join us for worship and fellowship with other young people as we continue the series on Scriptural authority, canonicity and inspiration with our leader Donald Vilneff.

If you have a question relevant to the topic, please e-mail him at donaldvilneff@hotmail.com so that he can address this query at the meeting.

Marmora Weekend Retreat - Friday, March 9 - Sunday, March 11

- We are planning on having a winter retreat to Marmora, Ontario (2.5 hrs northeast of Toronto), Donald Vilneff's hometown. If you haven't been there, it really is beautiful- lots of wooded hills, countryside as far as the eyes can see, and bright, clear skies at night (you can actually see stars!). It is imperative that you e-mail me ASAP this week if you intend to come as Donald has to arrange transportation and lodging there.

Details:
- There will be a nominal cost of $10-$12 to cover the transportation expense, as well as to help offset food and lodging.
- We will be leaving from the church parking lot between 5:30-6:00 pm on Friday, Mar. 9, returning on Sunday evening (Mar. 11).
-Since there are lots of outdoor activities to be done (sledding, exploring the farm and barn, winter walks, bonfires, etc.) please make sure to bring appropriate winter attire, including sturdy boots for snow/mud.
- A series of studies will be conducted by Donald, and various activities and games will be planned for the weekend.
-We will be attending church there on Sunday morning at Madoc Baptist Church.

This Week's Events

TBS and C & C Worship and Photo Scavenger Hunt- Sat. Feb. 17 @ 6 pm

*Please join us for a time of worship with the students from Toronto Baptist Seminary and others from C & C.
*There will be a fun Photo Scavenger Hunt following the worship time- teams will be given a list of items to take pictures of on a timed hunt. Please bring digital cameras, if you have one (preferably one with video mode), and USB plugs to attach to the computer if necessary.

*We will be viewing the photos on a slideshow after the allotted hunt time along with some cookies and hot chocolate.

*Prizes will be awarded for the winning team!

Next week (Feb. 24), our leader Donald Vilneff will start a series on the Scriptures- its canonicity, doctrine, why there are different translations, and other relevant topics which some have raised and have queries about. We will return to Colossians again following this brief excursion.

***We are also planning a winter retreat in Marmora, ON (2 hrs. east of Toronto), Donald's hometown. It will be in the lovely winter countryside, and there are lots of winter activities to be done, including winter walks in the forest, tobogganing, snowball fighting, exploring the barn, and a host of other things! Please let me know if you're thinking of going as we have to arrange transportation- we are planning on it being the weekend of March 2 or March 9. Accomodations for the retreat will be provided- we had a great time there last year, so we encourage you to come this year and join us!***

~*C & C Study and Winter Activity This Saturday*~

Saturday, Feb. 10 @ 7:30 pm - Continuing Study of Colossians Chapter 2

9:30 pm - Sledding at Riverdale Park

We WILL start the C & C meeting promptly at 7:30 pm to allow for enough time to do the study and to have fellowship time, as well as accommodate the sledding activity later on in the evening.


As sledding is in the evening, please remember to dress appropriately (layers, warm footwear!). The weather forecast for Toronto is here: http://www.theweathernetwork.com/weather/cities/can/pages/CAON0696.htm
- check it for this Saturday.

• If you have any sledding equipment (ie. toboggans, saucers, mats, discs, GTs, etc.) please bring them so that all those interested in coming can share- there are some sleds in the seminary houses, but more is always better!

• Riverdale park is about 15-20 min. east by walking, and has a very large toboggan hill (Phil and I have discovered an even larger one, about 8 x larger than the one we traditionally go to every year, and it's at the bottom of the classic hill and over the bridge further east- 5 min. away).

Next Week (Saturday, Feb. 17) - TBS/C & C Photo Scavenger Hunt

• We will announce the time for you early next week- there will be a time of worship, followed by a timed photo scavenger hunt, slideshow presentations by teams, and snacks.
• Please bring a digital camera (and USB plugs, as necessary if yours is camera-specific) if you have one as teams will be organized by this.
