Coming up next week...  I know its a bit early to be starting to think of Christmas but its a bit chilly in the youth work office now and that has set my mind on a festive course!

Coming up next week...  Well, its the first week since half term and it all seems to have gone pretty well so far. Nothing has burst into flames yet as I am aware.

Coming up next week...  I hope everyone has had a great half term. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, so I won't mention that by Monday it will all be over :(.

Coming up next week...  We have made it! Tomorrow is officially half-term! Well done everyone.  We've still got some things happening though, so it's worth reading this blog... just in case.  Cell Groups  Well done to everyone who took part in our Cell Celebration on Sunday. It was a brilliant service and everyone did really well. The sad new is that because of half term, there won't be any cell next week. You'll just have to wait until the week after for you cell group fix!  Friday Pathfinders (younger) Tonight (20th October) its Cafe Night. Mo and Dave will be there with their international Cafe and Olly will challenge anyone who feels brave enough to face him at Teken Tag.  Next week (27th October) its half term :), so there won't be any Pathfinders :(. But don't worry, we will be back the week after that for more fun and games.  Friday Pathfinders (older) Tonight (20th Oct)...

Coming up next week...  You may have to excuse a few (more) typos and spelling mistakes than normal. Hope, may have decided that 4.30am was wake up time and is now chattering merrily away next to me. This is our last proper week before half term, but its a goodie. We've got cell celebration, cell leaders training, and a winter BBQ. To find out more have a little read below...  Cell Groups  THIS SUNDAY (15th OCTOBER) 6pm is our Cell Celebration! If you have never been to a cell celebration before, now is your chance. Ask anyone who has been if you want to know more about what they are like. You'll be glad you did.  If you are in a cell, please can you make sure you are there for 5.30pm to set everything up.  Next week (after the cell celebration) there won't be any cell groups meeting, because our lovely leaders will be attending a training session. We will be back after half term though, raring and ready to go. ...
