Weekly fellowship

Acts 2:46b, "... and breaking bread from house to house, they partook of their food with exultation and simplicity of heart."

Dear saints,

We are excited to announce a wonderful opportunity to blend with the young people on Saturday, November 8, 2025—the IYP Progressive Dinner.

This is one of the most anticipated events of the year during which the young people travel to three different homes to progressively enjoy three courses–appetizer, main course, and dessert–each with a different family in Irvine. It is a time of blending where the young people and families get to know one another as fellow members of the household of God. We hope you can consider whether you would be willing to open your home for this purpose.

The proposed schedule is as follows:

• 6:00pm-6:45pm - Appetizer in 1st home
• 7:00pm-7:45pm - Main Course in 2nd home
• 8:00pm-8:45pm - Dessert in 3rd home

We invite you to enjoy the blessing of blending by signing up to host the YP for either appetizer, main course, or dessert.

Sign up to be a host using the following Google form: bit.ly/2025-IYP-Dinner-Host

If you have any questions, feel free to contact Charles Lee (626) 371-6227, or Phoebe Jaramillio (818) 481-8319.

Grace be with you,

The YP Serving Ones

Please read and review the following important items as reminders and updates to the registration:

• There should be one account login per registration. (Couples or families should have separate logins).
• Full-time means you intend to attend all the meetings.
• Part-time (Live or Video) means you will attend the meetings which you have selected to attend based
  on your schedule. You can only be marked excused or absent from the meetings you selected. You are
  allowed to attend any of the unselected meeting(s). The registration forms will list the meetings to be
  selected when the part-time option is selected.
• Full-time shared seat: A part-time shared seat is not allowed. Any shared seat must be occupied full-
  time. Therefore, it may be a better option to register for two part-time seats for flexibility rather than
  trying to fill a full-time shared seat.
• Live Training Registration (Two Forms Required):
  • The Irvine registration form will record the shared seat name and part-time meetings, if applicable.
  • The corresponding LSM registration form will record the registration with LSM for the Live training.
    • Both forms are needed to complete the registration.
    • The leading brothers will review and approve the list of registrants attending the Live training.
• Age restriction: All those who participate in the semiannual trainings must now be 18 years old and over (at the time the training begins), without exception. This applies to registrants for the live trainings in Anaheim and for all the video trainings.

A special fellowship was held at the 2025 June semiannual training concerning the Lord’s up-to-date move in Europe as a whole and specifically in Italy and in French- and German-speaking Europe. A video recording of that fellowship is available at lordsmove.org/reports.html.

The church in Madrid, Spain, would like to purchase a house next door to its meeting hall for approximately $1.5 million, that would, together with the meeting hall and a second neighboring house already purchased and owned by the church, give the church possession of an entire city block. By such consolidating the ownership of the whole block, the church anticipates multiplying its capacity to host conferences and receive hospitality for the purpose of blending, since Madrid plays a central role in the Lord’s move in Europe’s Iberian Peninsula.  If you are burdened to make a donation to be applied towards the purchase of this house in Madrid, you can do so directly or through the church in Irvine’s website by designating your offering as being for the “Madrid House”. For the full letter from the church in Madrid, please click here.

Offerings to the church in Irvine can now be made via Zelle.

The church’s Zelle account is: Zelle@churchinirvine.org

The benefit of making offerings by Zelle is that there are no transaction fees charged to the church. If the offering is for a particular matter please designate that in the memo field.

If your Zelle limit is below the offering amount you would like to give, it is often possible to raise that limit by requesting that your bank increase your transaction limit.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For those already using Zelle related to other matters (e.g., paying rent for corporate housing), you should continue using the same Zelle address as before.

For any questions please email offering@churchinirvine.org. (Note: Do not Zelle funds to this email address)
