Connections Newz Weekly‏‏

Greetings Friends at Connections!

We had a good training at CMTA conference last weekend! I am encourged that thirty six of you had show up to this conference either Friday or Saturday.  That's more than last year.  I hope  you gained some insights or ideas from the conference.

We had a wonderful time at our Social Night for College and Young Adults.  We had Pizza and hotwings for the night.  You can tell we all had tons of fun by looking at the pictures: http://fbcsinglesministry.blogspot.com/  Thank to Sabrina for uploading the pictures.

Also, 32 ladies( Singles or not) are going to Woman's Retreat at Thousands Pine this weekend.  Please keep them in your prayer.

By the way, we are going to Newport(Corona Del Mar Beach) on April 28th next Saturday for our Friend's Day Gathering.  Please bring your own lunch.  We will have a regular meeting and lunch somewhere on the beach then free time for everyone.  Meet at FBCA parkinglot at 10am for carpool.  Please contact me at jtstar97@hotmail.com or 626-716-8618 if you need carpool.

Here is a list of things to do at Newport Beach.  My suggestion is that perhap you or your friends may want to drive your own vehicles if you want to visit some of these places at Newport Beach.  Please visit the sites below for pricing and direction or more information.
