This week in St. Leonards Youth......

Coming up this week... 

This month seems to be going super quickly! I can't believe we are nearly at the end of it. Here is what is happening this week...



Cell...
This week is our first week of looking at 'Big Questions' and we will be exploring the topic of science and religion. Are they the same thing? Are they anti each other? Is there any point talking about any of this? All that and more to look forward to at cell. We looked at new year last week, so this week we will also be putting together time capsules with the beautiful selfies we took last week. Hopefully then next year we will be able to open them and see how young we all looked and be embarrassed  by our poses. 
Exhibit A
Next week the cell leaders are having a training session so normal cell sessions will be cancelled.

Friday Pathfinders...
This week the younger pathfinders will be taking part in "I'm a Pathfinder Get Me Out Of Here!" so come in clothes you are prepared to get dirty!

 For Older Friday Pathfinders this week we will be doing our very own version of Never Mind the Buzzcocks so you should all brush up on your music knowledge!
At Older Pathfinders people are expected to climb round a table without touching the floor (I'm not quite sure why!)
CYFA & Sunday Pathfinders
Once again there is no Sunday Pathfinders or CYFA this week :( but the good news is that we are having a speaker in Church from Adventure Plus, A Christian Charity which runs Outdoor activities for young people so please come along!

You may recognise some of these people on an Adventure Plus camp!


Soul Survivor
The price for Soul Survivor goes up at the end of the month so if you want to come you absolutely need to get your form in this week! otherwise we will have to charge you more for a place. We are also having our first fundraising meeting next Tuesday so please come with lots of ideas!



Youth Weekend Away
We literally now have only one more place to squeezed someone in at the weekend away. So if you want to come along you really need to get your forms into Olly or Beth. The first person to hand in the forms will get the place and everyone else will go on a waiting list. The waiting list people will get first dibs if someone else pulls out or if we can find a way to possibly get more people in!

Coming up next week...  After a bit of a false start last week with the bank holiday, we are now back with a bang.

The theme this time is loneliness and you will hear which part fo the service you are doing a your cell next week! Read on for more...  Year 7 Cell: WILL BE MEETING!!! Even though this Monday (6th May) is a bank holiday, we have decided that unless meet, then the bank holidays will mean you have missed too many cells, so being the lovely leaders that we are, we are keeping cell going. We will be preparing for our part in the cell celebration Year 8 Cell:   WILL BE MEETING!!!  Even though this Monday (6th May) is a bank holiday, we have decided that unless meet, then the bank holi

Wow, what a summer! Soul Survivor was, as it always is, amazing this year. If you were at St. Leonard's on the 7th September you will have heard all about it, but for those of you who weren't: We took 30 young people and 4 leaders with us this year and were joined by a group from Leicester. So all told we had group of 45. Which looked pretty good when we were all in fancy dress. But more than that, it was amazing to see how much God moved people along in their faith, simply because they set aside some time to focus on Him. What was also amazing was that a pretty incredible new brother of mine gave his life to God that week; it is has been brilliant to see what God has been doing in him since. Here is a little photo montage to give you a taste of what it was like:  After that we were straight back into the normal running of things for September. Cell groups have been running the 'It's Time' materials suggested by Open Doors, CYFA are looking at what
