April 15th to 18th 2010 is the date for the next Project 242 event based at the Pioneer Centre in Worcestershire. The title for the 2010 event is "by faith" and we will be studying what does it truly mean to live by faith.

Pioneer 242/10 caters for all ages with an exciting program for adults, supervised creche facilities and a kids program for ages 4-11.

More details of the programme will be posted nearer the time but for now please read below for a little insight into the subject we will be looking at.

Subject Summary

Our relationship with God begins with us having faith in what He has done for us through His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. “By grace you have been saved through faith” (Ephesians 2:8) It is a faith that saves us, giving us eternal life and starting us off on what can be a great journey.

God asks us to live life ‘by faith’, trusting Him for all things. It’s sometimes easier said than done. Learning to believe God’s promises, and stepping out with Him into every circumstance that comes our way, is a challenge for every one of us. But, “faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1) and we need to learn to have a real trust in God.

After all, it’s only by increasing our faith in Him that we can move forward in a developing relationship with Him. God desires the best for each of us, but for us to experience this we need to live by faith, trusting Him for everything. He can do great things through those who live by faith, but are we brave enough to step out? Are we limiting the work of God because of our lack of faith?

The study at Pioneer 242 will focus on real, living and active faith seen in the lives of God-given examples. For inspiration and encouragement, for guidance and direction, for a true understanding of what faith really is, we need to share the vision of what God can and will achieve in lives lived ‘by faith’. Pioneer 242 will give us the chance to discuss faith together and learn valuable lessons from each other.

Our prayer is that we will, as a result, be seen and known as people who live ’by faith.’ It’s the life that God is calling us to, and “with God all things are possible.”
