  RICE Youth Sydney

• Meet the RICE Rally team...

  April 14, 2012

  RICE Rally (formally RICE Youth Sydney Rally) is back again this year! Lock in Saturday 18 August in your calendar and check out www.riceyouth.org for more information. Leading up to Rally we’ll be getting to know some of the RICE Rally team who work so tirelessly to bring this event together. This month we meet Sam Mak, Boris Yu and Ryan Yeomans.

  
  

  What church are you at? 

  [Sam] Kirkplace Presbyterian Church

  [Boris] Australia Ling Liang Church Asquith

  [Ryan] Christ Church St Ives

  
  

  How long have you been involved with RICE?

  [Sam] 9 years

  [Boris] Since 2008, starting as a Key Coordinator

  [Ryan] 1 year

  
  

  Describe RICE Rally in 3 words:

  [Sam] Engaging Christ-focussed proclamation.

  [Boris] Know. Love. Experience. ;p or Jesus. Bible. God.

  [Ryan] Jesus. Saving. People.

  
  

  

  
  

  What is one thing you love about RICE Rally?

  [Sam] I love the fact that young people across Sydney step up and take their faith seriously and take the gospel into their schools.

  [Boris] I love the fact that God worked in me at RICE in 2005 and showed me who Jesus truly is. Now I get to see many other youth come to the same life-changing realisation every single year-it’s all God’s grace.

  [Ryan] I love that RICE Rally actually serves a need and isn’t just there for the sake of it – but it’s filling a hole that’s missing for the youth of Sydney.

  RICE Youth Sydney

• RICE Zone kicks off for 2012

  April 13, 2012

  Our next RICE Zone event will be on Friday afternoon on the 11th of May at Central Baptist Church. So help us spread the word and let other Christians in your high schools know about it!

  
  

  When: Friday 4th May, 4-6pm

  Where: Central Baptist Church - Train to Town Hall and walk 

  What: Awesome worship, prayer, bible teaching and sharing from other high schoolers.

  
  

  Check out the Facebook event page here: http://www.facebook.com/events/195907623862015/

  
  

  
  

    

  
  

  RICE Zone kicked off for 2012 on March 23 at Central Baptist Church. RICE Zone aims to spur Christian high schoolers to develop a more intimate relationship with Jesus, to expand their Christian network and to encourage them to do big things in Jesus’ name in their school.

  
  

  We had 38 kids from all over Sydney come along to sing praises, share about their schools, encourage one another and hear from God's word. It is amazing seeing how eager the youth are for fellowship and to worship God together. They come straight from school to have fellowship and sing praises, and then most of them shoot off to youth group straight after RICE Zone!

  
  

  

  
  

  There was one girl from St George Girls who this year started up a Christian bible study group in her school called "Lighthouse". It began with just a handful of Christians but, after ceaseless prayer, God quickly grew the group and has been bringing 40 girls  (one week there were 60 girls) to regularly come and study the bible at lunchtime! Our vision is for youth to faithfully step out and start groups like this in their schools, and wait upon God to do his work.
