Coming up next week... 
Welcome back. We are into the final term of the academic year, and everything is still a little bit strange. We are still here, planning new material for you guys, writing plans and coming up with (hopefully) some fun and engaging stuff for you to get stuck into. 


Cell Groups
Cell groups are back this week. Different groups will be up to different points through the devotional plans but we are continuing with that this week. Please let us know how you have found the devotionals, it is great to have feedback both good and bad on how you are finding things, so that we can make it even better!

Can you guess which school related words these pictures are from year 7 cell? 




Friday Pathfinders 
Will be canceled until further notice... however both Olly and I will be available to chat or give you creative one player game ideas using the contact details below!! Genuinely do get in touch on a Friday night if you are bored... we probably will be too. 



CYFA
We had a great CYFA yesterday (May 31st) on RAVE where we watched an Andy Croft talk and discussed it together. We are going to be doing the same, but this time with a Mike Pillavachi talk on the 14th June, see you all for that I hope.

Sunday 
Alongside the Sunday service, Olly and I have created a series of talking point videos. These are just a few simple questions to discuss in your homes, with your friends or just to think about on your own. They are based around the topic of the Sunday service and are just aimed to get you thinking that little bit more. We hope you enjoy them!

New Challenges 
Well well well. Who would have thought that age would triumph over beauty in the battle of the youth workers. Olly came out on top (somehow) but we both really enjoyed it, so thanks to those who came up with the challenges, and especially thanks to Jake Holton for taking on the mantle of posting and uploading a load of content. We decided to join together for the last task of making up a dance, use the link to view our video!

 Dobbo and Olly dance

The bible in lockdown challenge is still going on! We have moved into Joshua and Acts, and I think now is the most important time of challenge. As society opens up, and there is more to do, it would be easy to stop reading the bible as much, but let's keep going. 

 There will be some new content coming soon, we are just trying to work out how best to do this, so watch this space. 

If you would like to be involved and you already aren't, either get in touch with Olly and I or follow @stleonardslockdown on instagram.

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.

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
