Hi
everyone!
Welcome to December! Hope you
are all well during this extremely cold time of year - how exciting that
Christmas is only 25 days away now!
Just
over two weeks ago we had another delicious CMF Meal, with a great talk from
Willie Harrison on the topic of Shining
like Stars, looking at the passage from Philippians 2:14-18.
14 Do everything without grumbling or arguing, 15 so
that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you
will shine among them like stars in the sky 16 as
you hold firmly to the word of life.
It always important to
remember that this means we must take every opportunity to share our faith with
other on our course and within our work place. We are commanded to be stars and
stars may look small from our perspective but they are not. They are huge suns
millions of miles in diameter. He makes our lives something that is not to be hidden
from others. We are to SHINE.
If you really enjoyed this meal, we have another one coming
up really soon! The annual CMF Christmas Meal is just around the corner, and
whether you’ve been to none of the meals so far, or to every single of them you
are most definitely welcome here. There are 25 of us going so far but would
love to have a full house, bursting with fellowship and banter! So please RSVP
here (http://www.facebook.com/events/281113215324406/) on the facebook event,
or send us a quick email @ (cmfaberdeen@gmail.com) letting us know you can come
along with any dietary requirements. Very excited for this!
Another really exciting event coming up next term is the CMF National Student Conference in February, the 8th-10th to be precise.

Also let’s try and
represent Aberdeen even more by getting a few more members! It’s great to see so many people turning out for these
meals but would be even better if you could all become “official members”
(details here) - £6 for the first 18 months is a
bargain at just over 33p a month, and think of the amazing meal you get for
that! Worth it we’d say!
That’s all for now! See
you on the 11th of December!
Lots of love Beth & Sophie :)
