Cell July 17 - Vines, Branches and Fruit






We did something a little different this Friday night when it came to cell. Since some of the kids are getting older and getting ready to transition into the youth cell, and since some are working on teaching the younger kids in KidzPort, I decided to have some of them teach the lessons on Friday nights. This isn't an all-the-time thing, but I wanted to give them the opportunity to exercise their teaching chops. (and to see how hard it is to teach this group!!)





So the lesson this week was given by Josh. He taught out of John 15:1-9, which Jesus' metaphore of the vine and the branches. Josh did an excellent job breaking down the scripture, and had questions prepared for the group. He even had diagrams to illustrate the various "parts" we all play.



Of course, the "fruit" that we all hope to bear is twofold - of course we are all looking for "fruit" in terms of our outreach: bringing new people to Christ. The other "fruit" is the Fruit of the Holy Spirit - something that is growing in all of us.






Schedule Note: There will be cell next week, but it is also the Men's Fishing Outreach. Anyone who wants to go to that is excused from cell group.






Fifth Friday: For Fifth Friday this month, we will be joining with the rest of the congregation for a movie night in the church. There is no admission charge, and food will be sold.
