Snow Day

Well I have arrived in Leamington Spa after an adventurous day in the snow. You can see from the photo that when I decided to set off from Sheffield thetre had been a bit of a snow fall. It took me 20 minutes to get out of the street and 2 hours to travel the 10 miles to the M1
I eventually arrived at the YfC conference 2 hours late at 12.30pm. At least I was not doing anything at it. It's been a good time and I am really grateful to Richard Bromley for giving me the opportunity. It seems like there is a real desire to collabarate with regard to strategy and share resources where possible. We are both very committed to building God's kingdom and need to work out how we do that most effectively
It's also been great to see people commenting about how much they benefitted from Breakthrough - the SU holiday that I am involved in helping to organise over the New Year. We now need to explore how we follow up effectively. I am exploring with a number of locations running a regular youth cafe as a way of providing a space for folk to get together. I need to add it to my to do list.
It will be a year on Friday since Jackie was taken ill and so this Saturday we are holding open house from midday until about 10.30pm. If you know us and you are in Newcastle - please call in.
