EPIC - Endless Possibilities in Christ
EPIC is our Friday night youth ministry program which caters for young people from Year 6 through to Year 12.
EPIC is split into EPIC Jnr (Yr6-8) and EPIC Snr (Yr9-12).
Each Friday night young people gather to connect with each other, connect with their leaders and, most importantly, to connect with Jesus. The leaders at EPIC are all Christian young adults who are members of St Alban's. They are keen to see youth grow in their understanding of the bible and of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ in our world today.

Term 1 2010
The 1st EPIC for 2010 is on Friday 5th Feb.
This term we are doing a series called " 24: The Last 24 Hours". We will be looking at John's Gospel chapters 13-18 and seeing what happened in the 24 hours before Jesus was crucified. As we look at this part of John's Gospel we will find out what Jesus is passionate about and what he calls his followers to be passionate about.
In the easter holidays KYCK is happening. KYCK is a conference at Katoomba for thousands of young people from hundreds of different churches. We are going on Weekend #2 (16-18th April). The total cost is $175 (before March 19th) for KYCK rego, accomodation, food and transport. We have 40 spots, don't miss out! KYCK is open to any people in Yr 7-12. This year at KYCK we will be looking at the book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament.

I was in Newtown the other day and noticed the remains of a "Jesus - All About Life" sign tied to the fence out the front of a house on busy King St. Someone had obviously taken offence at the sign and ripped it in half. The sight of the vandalised sign didn't surprise me at all. With so many people walking past, at every hour of the day and night, it's a miracle that the sign wasn't vandalised earlier and its amazing that there was still half of it left on the fence! …
I recently read the book titled "Do Hard Things - A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations". It's written by 18 year old twins Alex and Brett Harris, who are Christians from Oregon, USA.
Their basic premise is that the expectations teenagers have of themselves in the western world is far too low, and that this is exacerbated by the low expectations adults and the society at large generally has for teenagers. …
Young people in Years 6-8 at school are well catered for at St. Alban's. On Sunday mornings the Fungus group caters for this age group. On Friday nights EPIC Jnr also caters for this age group. Although these two groups target young people in the same age range, they are very different groups with very different objectives.
The main aim of Fungus is discipleship. …
In recent times the Skidz group (Sunday mornings, school years K-5) has been growing and last term it was bursting at the seams. On some Sunday mornings there were more than 50 children present. The decision was made to split the group into two, from the beginning of this term. So Skidz has now become Light and Salt.
Two of the main advantages of splitting into two groups are:
1. It is now easier for the leaders to prepare and run age appropriate games and teaching material.
2. …
This term, each Friday night at EPIC, we are going to examine selected passages in the New Testament that explain key ideas about Jesus.
The series will be called "All About Jesus."
As we work through this series it's my prayer that we would all gain a deeper understanding of who Jesus is, what he has done, what he is doing and what he one day will do.
Throughout this term we will see how important Jesus is, how powerful he is, how loving he is, …
