Peace and Quiet

Things have calmed down a bit and got back to normal over the last couple of weeks. I managed to go to St Ebbes for the first time since January and have been enjoying things being a little more relaxed at the weekend. (I did go to Cadbury's world though which was amazing - I ate an awful lot of chocolate!) I have also now finished college for Easter (we have 5 weeks off!) which will hopefully give me some time to actually get some work done!

I have also been loving the sunshine and even got my legs out on Sunday and did a bit of sunbathing with a book in the garden!

At Pathfinders we have been running project nights where all the kids spend three weeks doing one of four projects (woodwork, knitting, filming or magic.) This has allowed me to tick something off my bucket list as I have now learnt a magic trick. I have also managed to lose two cards down a radiator which means I only have 50 left in my pack.

We have also had a Soul Survivor meeting - the fundraising is going really well but there are lots of things coming up which you can support. The next event is a coffee morning at the Church Hall this Saturday.

I've been thinking a lot about the future and what I'm going to be doing next year so I would really appreciate prayer that I would know what I should be doing.

I am currently the only person left in the office so I am really enjoying the peace and quiet!

Another flipping blog

This weekend we went to Viney Hill for our Youth Weekend Away. This was a great success and really good fun although I think everyone has come home feeling completely exhausted!

During the weekend we played lots of silly games and did some activities (I did manage to persuade Olly to put me on Crate Stacking so didn't get too cold and managed to climb up 14 crates.) There was also a serious side to the weekend with the young people taking part in three different workshops as well as worship round the campfire on saturday and a service on the sunday. I was running a workshop on evangelism with Olly and Jonathan which went really well (although we did run out of time.) One of the challenges we gave the young people was to commit to praying for 5 people who they would like to become christians, so I have also decided to set myself this challenge however as I work for a church and do most of my socialising at church things I have realised I have very few non Christian friends!

I have also eaten a lot of pancakes over the last week as I had pancakes in both my cell groups, my home group at Ebbes and at home! I have now managed to perfect my flipping technique (thanks to Sarah for the blog title). I wanted to think of something to do for lent and am considering trying a lent thing organised by tearfund which gives you an action to complete each day. Here is the website: http://village.rhythms.org/square/livefree-lent/ Feel free to check up on me!

I have finally been given a hospital appointment for my Chronic Fatigue which is tomorrow so if people could pray for that I would be very grateful!
