At the begining of May, we were in Latvia again, training children’s leaders. It was great!
It was a very full programme, lots of sessions, lots of time for prayer, and lots of time to drink tea!
Iveta (Children Worldwide Director in Latvia) had booked a Pentecostal pastor for the studies. We managed to get over the culture shock of an Indian Pastor (Sam)….in Latvia….speaking English (with an indian/american accent)….interspersed with a little latvian, and who shouted….a lot! (So loud, I could go and have rest and still hear the sermon whilst lying on my bed!) We loved his ministry. He was quite a shock for some of the delegates, but even the ones who did struggle loved him by the end of the weekend…..but they also enjoyed our more gentle approach to teaching! When Sam did a session – it could start at 10pm, and not end until 1.15 am! (And apparently that’s short !)
So…..we have come back a little tired, but all the richer for meeting such wonderful people.

Yes – we are General Directors of Children Worldwide, but we also work as itinerant children’s workers.
Along side these two busy roles, we have other ones:
Children Worldwide is the ministry arm of the charity ‘Family Foundations Trust’. We are two of 
the 11 trustees on the board of FFT. Dalesdown is also part of this charity – a delightful conference centre in the west sussex countryside. Check out the web site on http://www.dalesdown.org.uk/.
We are managing the youth and Children’s work for the Cheltenham Bible Festival – not doing any, just making sure it happens! Check out the web site on http://www.biblefestival.com/
You may have heard of Whizz Kids at Spring Harvest. We have the privilege of running this 5 – 7’s work for Spring Harvest. This will be our 9th year of leading Whizz Kids!
(Whizz Kids is the large event name for Children Worldwide)
