Great start to this evening to the new series of inter-Church youth events.

Always nice to receive feedback – thanks Gareth for the email:

“…it was a great night at BodyBuilders last night and the feedback from all of our young people was that they loved it !!
We are all looking forward to coming again next month and hopefully the few that couldn’t make it yesterday will be with us next month :0)”

Please continue to pray for the talks given and that the young people will mix and make friendships that will encourage them in their faith.

Always nice when you run out of seats at Duncan Road Church‘s weekly ‘Kids Klub!’

At Kids Klub the children have fun and burn off lots of energy as they take part in a variety of run-around games, singing, a mixture of fast paced action songs and also some quiet, more reflective songs.

Each week we watch a Bible story on DVD and sometimes learn a verse from the Bible to compliment the story. Craft time is a chance for the children to split up into age groups around tables to make something to take home that ties in with that weeks Bible story.

Each week the children also take home a fun sheet based on the weekly Bible story. The fun sheet has pictures to colour and puzzles to complete. Children who return their fun sheets the following week get to choose a reward from the Prize Box.

Kids Klub is for those children in Reception to school year five.

We have now welcomed Luke onto the programme who has travelled all the way from North Carolina! He will be spending the next few weeks at Tilsley Bible College before moving on to his church placement at Greenview Evangelical Church. Please pray for him as he faces this new chapter in the UK and for all the preparations to be put in place for his overseas placement in Niger.

The amazing Emily (photo 1) & Kirsty (photo 2) are now settling back into life in the UK after their FirstServe adventures, please continue to pray for them as they move onto the next chapter of their lives.

FirstServe is a unique discipleship and missions programme, primarily for 18-25 year-olds on a gap year, or those with a shorter time available.

Gordon is part of the FistServe Steering Group.

Arlo was taken to The Queen Alexandra Hospital, Portsmouth on Sunday evening (September 18th) with a suspected appendicitis! His appendix had burst and he had an operation to remove his appendix early Monday morning (September 19th).
Arlo returned home Monday evening (26th September). Last night (27th September ) Penny had to take Arlo back to the hospital as his wound was oozing out lots of liquid goo! He returned home a few hours later and is resting up.
He will not be at school for another week and he will not be allowed to do any contact sports for 6 weeks!
He is getting better, looking better and feeling better each day!
