We had 11 members in attendance on Sept.20th.
Our venue: R’n’R Restaurant in St. James Wpg.
Dale Hunt, our group leader, took us through another section of ‘Your Life in Christ’ a  discipleship program from Navpress.
We had good participation in this in-depth examination of the Trinity.
This is ‘Meat’ and not ‘Milk’: requiring preparation and reflection to
fully understand the  theological concepts that God is showing us.
We are advised to ask the Holy Spirit to speak to our head, heart and hands to enable us to comprehend fully the Scripture. (Head-to understand how our Lord deals with us in our walk with Him.
Heart-to fully embrace the truth we are studying and love our Lord in obedience. Hands-to ask the Spirit to show us how to apply what we learn in practical ways.)
An intercessory prayer time closes the session.
This is a wonderful blessing and our group shows compassion for those for whom we pray.
Ron Benson gave us some encouraging feedback. He appreciated the seriousness that our members show for our meetings. We are prompt, prepared and eager to participate. (Thank you Ron).
A new study will be started in October. These booklets, The Spirit-Filled Follower of Jesus, are available now for $20.  They will be ready at our next meeting, Wednesday September 27.

We had 11 men attending our session on this very warm day that ended with a tornado warning for our province. We were pleased to have Alan Hiller the missionary with us. (He has a calling towards the Muslim community in Winnipeg.)
During the study, Your Life in Christ, the following question sparked an interesting response. “What would our life look like if you lived it with humility and service to others? “ An example was given: like Gerald Reimer. Lots of agreement and examples of Gerald’s service and care towards CBMC members was given!
There was a good level of participation in our study.
Ken took our prayer requests to the Lord. We were grateful that we can cast our cares upon our Lord.

We enjoyed “double digit” attendance at this meeting!  A good number considering the time of year-peak Canadian holiday season.
We continue our discipleship studies in the Navpress study ‘Your Life In Christ’. This is Bible-based helping us live a life of hope and practical Christian love in our Canadian society. Each week we discover more about our wonderful Lord.
Our prayer sessions are a balance between intercession and thankfulness towards God for His answers to our requests.
One piece of feedback I received about the meetings from an attendee, “…this is the most encouraging part of my day….”
We pray especially for Ben’s trip to B.C., for meetings and recruitment.
