T&T Update   April/March 2005    Happy Easter to All   Christian Life Programs Welcome to the new members of our CFC Family.  From the Tacarigua CLP, the Laventille Shrine CLP and the  Beaupres CLP we welcome our new Handmaids, Servants, Singles and YFC.  May we always be to you what God would have us be -  a family always there, to be strong and to lean on.  We thank all speakers, MCs,  hospitality teams, intercessors, chief cooks and bottle washers for their CFC warmth and support.   Singles for Christ Francisca Monsegue of SFC sent us the following report from the SFC CORE meeting.   Apparently some members were missing (could that be you)…Anyway back to Fran’s report: Here’s what’s upcoming 1. We plan to go Kayaking and Archery on Easter Monday. We meet at the Kayak Centre in Chaguaramas at 7:30 a.m. after which we go to the Archery Range. Cost: Kayaking approx $30. and Archery :$10. Non members of SFC are also invited. (dem could gallivant!!).   2. We will be turning out in numbers at the SFC Annual Retreat on Friday 29th April–Sunday  1st May at  Caroni Retreat Centre.   Cost: $130.00.  We will pre-register with Sandra Theodore or Claire Peters so they can gauge the numbers for catering purposes, but we can pay at the door.  Seasoned retreatants suggest that you walk with sheet, pillow-case, bible and snacks to share.  (nah boy dem serious)   3. Our Responsible Parenting Sessions have been planned for the following Saturdays from 9:00a.m-12:00 noon. at the Catholic Centre on Independence Square. May 7th, June 4th, July 2nd. Sandra and Earl Theodore are responsible for the sessions in terms of getting persons to conduct too. Other ministries of CFC are also invited. All we ask is that persons bring a monetary contribution each time, since (1) The door man at the centre works from Mom-Fri but has offered his services to us on the Sats. (2) We may need to get tokens for our presenter(s).  (whoa  dem is real CFC people)     Radical For Christ 2 CFC Youth For Christ has once again embarked on getting the youth of the nation together to show how radical for Christ we can be in the Radical For Christ 2 Conference.  In August last year Radical for Christ was held in Chinese Association and the youth all had a great time listening to amazing talks, watching dancing and singing by their fellow youth, even modelling by the service team, and participating in games - all this sandwiched between awesome praise and worship.  This time around it would be just as good or even better.  So if you’re between the ages of 13 and 25, on Saturday April 2nd 2005 come on down to Providence Girls Catholic School in Belmont from 8am to 5pm and show how radical for Christ you can be.  Radical for Christ jerseys will be on sale and registration is only $20.00 so check your Youth Coordinator or call 640-7234 or 746-1874 for details… hope to see you there.  “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil”.Psalm 23:4     CFC Caribbean Conference "God is Enough" Ps 23 Conference Testimonies.  Some of us have been to CFC conferences before, and some of us haven’t. Why does someone go to a conference?  Send in your Conference Testimony to neil_claire@cfctrinidaandtobago.org.  If yours is chosen for publication you may win a CFC rosary, CFC T-shirt or maybe……..your fully paid conference fee !!!   Conference Registration Forms are now available online at our website cfctrinidadandtobago.org.  Fill out your preregistration so that we can gauge numbers for catering purposes.   Ooops…  Our indefatigable Keith didn’t get your call volunteering to help…… he sat at the phone waiting…he told me so himself……. So he says please call me, 629-2128, 680-2681 …We need to get funds rolling in.   Other committees also NEED your help.  (So call .. oh gorsh man...call nah)       May God Bless o        Angelique and Charles Villaroel on the birth of their beautiful baby. o        Neil Peters who has been appointed to our National Council.  We will pray for you and your lovely wife Claire. o        Chris Metevier who asked to step down from the National Council because of family commitments.  Chris and wonderwife Leslie continue to serve CFC whenever called. o        CFC Youth For Christ (YFC) who hosted Love Forum on February 13th, 3 YFC Camps and various parish and school retreats all within the last month.  WOW.  We thank God for their zeal and example.
