Exciting Contests Exciting Prizes!

As part of the missions camp experience, campers are invited to join the Missions Costume & Exhibit Contest and the Paramihan ng Na-Witnessan (PNW) Challenge.

The missions exhibit will fall under the group category and entries should be an effort of the youth organization in the church. The exhibit should project objects that will display the culture of their chosen nation. The chosen nation maybe a country or a tribal group or any group of people with distinct culture from others.

The Missions Costume contest and the PNW Challenge will fall under the individual category. The missions costume contest will be a representation of any nation displaying their culture through clothing. The PNW challenge as the title suggests, will be a challenge for the campers who will have the most number of people whom he or she has shared the Gospel with.

Everyone is encouraged to be creative and join. Exciting surprise prizes await you! ■

Come Holiday Season, Come AAFC Camp

The holiday season is approaching and so does the SIBFK-AAFC annual holiday camp. Holiday season means vacation in the youth context, an excellent time for young people to have holidays from school. And camping is just one of the excellent ways to unwind from the worries of schooling and get back to the One who authored education in our lives.

The SIBFK-AAFC will initiate its first ever missions camp with the theme Born with An Ultimatum this December. The missions camp aims to raise the youth’s awareness on the essence of missions in God’s plan for salvation. The now-generation Y’s immersion in the culture of the society’s “me-first” mentality has carried them into oblivion and has made them negligent of the Lord Jesus Christ’s Great Commission. The Lord has mandated everyone who has come to His saving knowledge, young and old alike regardless of their status, to exe cute this command. And camping is one of the exact ways to learn more about God and His plan for missions.

The SIBFK-AAFC has prepared a fun-filled missions camp especially for the youth to challenge them and to ignite their hearts with zeal to reach for the lost
The SIBFK-AAFC Missions Camp: Born with an Ultimatum will be on December 26-29, 2007 at Putting Bato Baptist Camp, Calaca, Batangas. Pre-registration is on-going and will end on December 22.
