wow... no one has posted anything since feb 6... i guess it's cause of exams and everything... so i guess i'll make my first entry here...

you might all be wondering who I am and why I am at Samuel every week for the last couple of weeks...

well, if you don't already know, i am Johnny. I attend CLBC on a weekly basis and i attend UNI fellowship at 8 every friday. I am a York University Graduate from the kinesiology program. I have been working at a physiotherapy clinic in the past year and a half. I hope to be attending masters in physiotherapy in the fall. I have been attending church since i was 8 but it wasnt until maybe 5 years ago when i considered myself Christian. so that's me in a paragraph. feel free to ask for more details or anything you want to know..

why I decided to take part in Samuel? I want to take part in your growth. I want to see each member mature in Christ, myself included. even though i am suppose to be the one bringing things to the table, I, too, see this as a learning experience for myself. A vision that i have for myself as one of the leaders/members of samuel is that I don't want to be viewed as the older guy that tells ppl what to do and what not to do... I want to present myself as one who is approachable in times of need... i want to be a friend/brother to all of you... yes, that might sound corny... but until you can see others within the church as brothers and sisters, you will not be able to see what kind of difference the church can bring into your life... I might be A BIT older than you guys... but highschool isnt centuries away from me... i still remember what went on and I can still get an idea of what goes on now... i dont believe that my high school days are all that different from today's...

so feel free to come to me w/ anything... questions about me, questions about Christianity, random questions, questions about life, etc... I will always try and make myself available...

and i do encourage you guys to make use of this blog... not just amy and sabrina writing... but everyone contribute... this is your space to venture... u can vent, u can share, u can ask for prayer... this is suppose to be a judgement free space to express your concerns and anything... and it doesnt have to be anything deep... it can be a random joke u heard that you found funny... it doesnt have to be Christianity related either.... just post as you wish... but remember, this is a place to encourage one another... if you want to put someone down or gossip about someone, this is not the place to do it... nor should u be doing it..

signing out.. peace
