This morning, Pastor Sam Fiore will be delivering the message.
A Series from the Book of Ephesians:
“The Formula for a Failsafe Family”
"For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his
wife, and the two will become one flesh." 32 This is a profound mystery-but I am talking about Christ and the church. 33 However, each one of you
also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her
husband.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2 "Honor your
father and mother"--which is the first commandment with a promise-- 3
"that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the
earth." 4 Fathers, do not exasperate your children; nstead, bring them up in
the training and instruction of the Lord.
Ephesians 5:31-6:4
Coming Soon from Ephesians…

LiNK- The Au Pair Connection is an outreach of Youth for Christ to
au pairs working in the Lake Geneva region. Au pairs are young
adults (mostly women) coming from another country to live with
and work for a family doing childcare in exchange for room, board
and a cultural experience.
Traveling to a new country presents them with new challenges as
well as unique needs. They find themselves needing friends and
encouragement. They need to adjust to a new culture and
language. The fact of being alone makes them vulnerable. They
often encounter situations for which they are not prepared.
LiNK meets these needs through creative meetings, weekend
excursions and contact with LiNK’s staff. “Linking” au pairs with
each other and to the LiNK staff is a key aspect of meeting their
needs.
September
PACTEC
In addition to practical needs, LiNK offers ways for au pairs to
explore life with their Creator. They are at a pivotal time of life
October
when they are asking important life questions. To help “link” au

pairs with God, they can explore Christianity, at a weekly group,
November
called CrossLiNK, that meets to read and discuss the Bible

together.
