Out with the old and in with the new…

“Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: forgetting what is behind and straining towards what is ahead, I press on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenwards in Christ Jesus.” – Philippians 3:12-14

As we come to the last day of 2016; we look back on the past year; remembering all of its trials and tribulations, its victories, all of the fun that we’ve had and all of the challenges that we have overcome.

We can remember all of the blessings that God gave us.  We remember God’s faithfulness and how He has brought us safely to the end of another year.

But more than that, we look forward to 2017 with great expectation.

Expectation for the year ahead.

Expectation that God will once again show us His faithfulness.

Our Emmanuel – God with us; will still be with us in 2017.

What are your prayers for 2017?

What are you looking forward to?

Like the apostle Paul, are you pressing on to lay hold of all that God has in store for you in 2017?

We certainly will do in 2017; especially as we attend the Youth for Christ national conference in January. We look forward to a year of impacting young lives with the life changing message of Jesus. A year where we see God do amazing things in and through the work of Llandudno Youth for Christ. We also look forward to seeing so many people coming alongside us to engage with this ministry. Standing alongside us in 2017 in prayer; with finances and with voluntary support at our different events.

Thank you for all of your amazing support in 2016; and here’s looking forward to 2017.

Happy New Year!
