Last Friday Night...

I seem to be spending this year collecting certificates! In the last two weeks I have completed my second child protection training of the year and a first aid course. I have also spent a lot of time in the last couple of weeks in meetings about soul survivor, the youth weekend away and sunday pathfinders. This has actually been really good as I like to be organised about things and it was encouraging to talk to the other leaders.

Last Friday at pathfinders we created our own disney prince and princesses (below) at pathfinders. Disney night has also left us with a giant teaspoon and long green plait in the office - any ideas what we can use them for?

Unfortunately the youth club we help at on thursdays is going to be closing down for a couple of months as the school needs to use the space so we are having our last session on thursday (when we are having a disco)

The highlight of my fortnight though was a trip to the ATP World Tour Finals with my Mum where we got to see a match between Federer and Del Potro - Here is a picture of them warming up!

The next few weeks are going to be really busy in the lead up to Christmas so it would be great if you could pray for energy for me to keep going through this time.

Half Term, Hot Chocolate and Harry Potter

It's been a while since I wrote a blog as I have been rather busy and lacking any inspiration! I am currently drinking a hot chocolate in
the office after a week off so am now feeling much more relaxed. Unfortunately I had a blood test very early this morning so am still just as tired!

The last few weeks have involved more sorting as well as all the usual groups. Sarah and I managed to throw away 6 bin bags full of stuff from the pathfinders cupboard which now looks an awful lot tidier! Another highlight was Harry Potter night where I dressed up as Bellatrix Lestrange - the shower was black for quite a while that evening!

My first half term at St Leonard's has been a really great experience; I have met some lovely people and feel like I am going to learn a lot this year. For those of you who don't know I suffer from depression and often get very stressed. Last year not long after this time I dropped out of Uni and had a pretty rubbish year so I'm feeling really encouraged that I am enjoying what I am doing and managing to cope with all the different things I am doing.
