Vancouver Missions Team 2009

Here’s a quick list of the stuff that belongs to other people, but is still in my office!!

5 boxes of potpourri
1 water bottle with “JAMES” written on it
1 air mattress (I think Bri’s)
1 moose shirt
1 pair of sneakers (now on display at front of church)
1 Rebel volleyball shirt
1 envelope from 3 link with “James” written on it
1 fleece sweater

If you want them, stop by the church and get your stuff!

Jesus was talking to his disciples and asking who people though tthat Jesus was.  Then Peter didn’t believe he as the messiah and God said to get behind me satan.

If you were in Peter’s shoes, what would you say to Jesus?

I think its amazing that Jesus healed this man and made it so he could see again with just  a little spit in his hands.

How would you feel if you were the blind man being healed with Jesus spit?

There was a time where a lot of people were with Jesus in a desert and he was sending them back home.  But he knew on the way they would die because  they had nothing to eat.  he passed out seven loaves of bread for 4,000 people to eat and he had a couple of fish.  Then he out the leftovers in a basket to send home.

How were they able to pass out so little food and have everyone be satisfied?

So Jesus makes a deaf and mute guy hear by sticking his fingers in his ears and mouth and saying “Ephphatha.”  (which means be opened) He told everyone that saw it not to talk about it.  The more he said that, the more they talked about it.

If you saw Jesus do something spectacular and he told you not to tell anyone, would you do what he said?

Ok so I don’t really understand this passage but here is what I got.  Jesus took a demon out of this lady’s young daughter.  Jesus didn’t want to get noticed but he was and he ended up shoing his awesome power by taking this demon out of this girl.  

-God has a lot of power of course.

So, have you seen God’s power?  If so, in what ways?

The disciples were alone in a boat and struggling against the wind.  So… Jesus decides to go out to them.  Rather than taking his own boat he walks out to them on the water.  They thought he was a ghost and they were afraid.  The disciples were amazed that Jesus could do it beacuse they didn’t understand his other miracles.

What would you do if you saw someone walking on water and would you be surprised even though it was Jesus?

5 loaves and 2 fish to feed 5,000.  Jesus always comes through and will never make us go hungry physically, emotionally, or faithfully.  

What would you do if you were given 5 loaves, 2 fish and a shed to feed 5,000?
