Our guys running for House Committee

In August, most of the UCT residences had campaigns for 2013’s house committee members.

Like in politics, this involved marketing, campaigning, interrogations and eventual voting by residence members for their next leaders who will facilitate various like entertainments, maintenance, study mentors, treasury, etc

A few of the boys from Marquad campaigned and 2 made it.

What often happens is these guys get elected and when the new year starts, they get overwhelmed with balancing school, social life

and house committee responsibilities. What we’ve been encouraging the guys to do is to build teams around them who can help them. Instead of being a soloist, invite other men into their lives to walk with them and help share the load.

We’re trusting God that these guys will stand up against injustice and immorality and trust God to bring about godly leadership.

Celebrating the youth @ church

On August 19th the youth ran the whole 11AM service as part of celebrating youth. Here’s some snaps:

At the end of the service we had one person representing each age group or generation praying for their generation and pledging for their generation for them to play their part.

Training day: Aug 2012

This putrefy Saturday we ran a training day. We had two courses: Making Disciples & Experiencing Victory.

Great to see students rising up to equip their mates.

I had a chance to take a session at both courses and Chinelle had a session on sexual brokenness at the Experiencing Victory course.



Connect Group social: braai time

Last week's cell group at Leo Marquad was a soccer game and a braai afterwards. We had a Cooper of guys who stay there but don't attend the cell.

Fun times building relationships
