Last weekend was a great one, spent looking after twelve 4 – 8 yr olds at a church weekend. We always enjoy working with St. Luke’s Thurnby – always welcoming, friendly and a pleasure to be with. It also makes us feel old seeing youngsters who have been with us over the years now ‘all growed up’!
If you check out the twitter updates on the left, you will see some of the things we taught.

A Children Worldwide management meeting on Tuesday was really good. We spent some time looking at the future and how we should develop what we do. Our ‘fresh vision’ for the future isn’t earth shattering – It’s to keep doing what we do – but do it better! One new idea was to put on lunch time events to bless other children’s workers who need to know they are loved and appreciated. Children Worldwide is mainly about fellowship and support – so we hope to be implementing this soon! There were lots of other ideas that will benefit our existing membership – we all just need the time to put them in place… All very exciting though!

News hot off the press from Wednesday – those who follow our blog will know Kay had an operation last March. For various reasons, the full operation Kay was expecting wasn’t done, so she is due to go back and have a total hysterectomy on August 4th (As long as the anesthetist gives the go ahead). This is very soon after the previous surgery – and having fibromyalgia means recovery is generally slower, but having the op then gives a longer time frame for recovery (No large event to dash off to only 3 ½ weeks later as we did last time!)

Meanwhile – back to preparing for Hungarton Camps!

Lots More Miles On the Clock!

This last week has been non stop journeyings! 


From Broadstairs, to Hassocks, to Cheltenham, to London, and tomorrow on to Sheffield.


Lots of meals have been had with lots of lovely people, as well as some meetings, time for ourselves, and even an ‘interview’ for ‘In Good Company’, Jeff Lucas and Ruth Dearnley’s Chat show on Premier Radio. This will air some time in August on a Sunday night at around 8pm. Kay was very nervous about it, but Steve seemed to take things in his stride – as usual!


Next week the traveling continues with a trip to Falmouth for Peter’s (Steve’s oldest son’s) graduation – taking grandma with us too! Then we travel back to a local conference centre to do the children’s work for a church weekend (St.Lukes, Thurnby)


Do keep an eye on the twitter updates (On the left) for real time updates on all we’re doing, as it covers more than we can in blog updates!
