Chapel Review week ending Friday Dec 7th



Chapel Report Fri. Dec. 7, 2012

Chapel this week featured a visit on Tues. Dec. 4 from MCC Saskatchewan’s Community & Young Adult Coordinator Myriam Ullah, along with two interns Rebecca and Erin.  They shared about their experience serving with MCC SK and related some information about MCC’s programming.  Chapel closed with a viewing of this year’s winning entries in MCC SK’s annual ‘Redefining Community’ film contest, which featured some RJC Alumni!

On Wednesday Dec. 5, staff and students celebrated the achievements from the fall sports season.  Coaches and players from the boys’ and girls’ soccer and volleyball teams and the football team shared season highlights.  Athletic director Joel Driedger thanked the students for their participation (80% of RJC students were involved in a fall sport this year!) and commended them on their sportsmanship.

Advent chapels continued on Thursday Dec. 6 with the lighting of the peace candle, a puppet show, carol singing, and a message from Faith and Life student leader Joesf Beug.  This along with ‘The 12 days of Christmas’ dress-up days planned by the Spirit Committee are helping students get into the Christmas spirit, even though many are far from home.

On Friday Dec. 7, RJC was honored to have Conrad Flett, host of the television show Tribal Trails, share in chapel.  Conrad’s soft, yet to the point, message conveyed his heart for God and his desire for others to experience the peace he himself has found.  He also played two songs.
