Day 10 of the New year and my first two school assemblies of 2017!
Pleasure to go into Park Gate Primary School & Sarisbury Junior School to take the assemblies.

Thousands of young people learn about the Christian faith through ‘Counties’ resources:

‘GSUS Live’
had 19,418 students through its doors and is already fully booked for 2017.
‘The Life Exhibition’
had over 10,000 visitors during 2016 and the calendar is nearly full for 2017.
‘Key to Life?’,
which was launched in April last year, had 2,700 people on board who learnt about Jesus through interactive lessons.

‘GSUS Live’ arrives n Hampshire tomorrow ready for its six week stint:

Gordon is coordinator for the six week visit and will be manning the expo on three different weeks. Please pray for all those involved, pupils, teachers, presenters and the assemble &dismantle crews!

Last official Church activity of 2016 for Duncan Road Church. Great to be part of ‘the choir’ as they lead a Carol Service at Hamble Heights care home. Park Gate. Southampton.

Three Christmas services today – Morning (preaching on the Wise men at DRC), early evening opportunity to share the good news (preaching on Jesus the saviour) at West End Chapel, Fareham and then back to Duncan Road Church, Southampton for Carols by Candlelight service (preaching on 1 John 4:14).

Although numbers were down tonight, it was still good that 20 men squeezed into the home of Mike Peach to come ‘Face to Face, with James Richards.

“People used to think of me as Jim the Marine – it gave me that sense of recognition. And yet… there was something still missing.”

James Richards talked about his experience serving with the Royal Marines, and his search for belonging in the battle of life.

If you missed it you can hear James story on youtube:A Soldier’s Story
