Summer madness




Well we are coming towards the end of Summer Madness and I apologize for any spelling mistakes. I have managed to borrow Youthlinks Wireless Laptop but this thing is tiny and thats the truth. Its like a big iPhone without the features!!

We have had a fabulous 3 days so far. We have worshipped with 5000 people yesterday (above)morning, we have attended seminars like 'what if Jesus had a facebook' and ' 5 things they didn't teach you in sunday school'. We have danced, sang, played 'football' shared in jokes and had great fun translatting between the northern ireland and appc group. There are 11 from the newtownbreda group staying on site with us and the two groups have just integrated soo well. It has made it wonderful and simple to supervise them.

We leave our journey of spiritual and personal development here at summer madness tomorrow morning (tuesday) and get the chance to shower and sleep in a comfy bed. GLU (God loves you) begins Tuesday evening with a meeting with the 80 volunteers that have registered to work in the community.

It has rained every day so far we have been here but thankfully at Summer MAdness mostly at nights and at times when we have been indoors. We even had a wonderful visit from Mary McCausland who journeyed across from Glasgow for the night to spend it with us at Summer MAdness in the luxury of the stables!!

We are feeling soo blessed by our experiences to date and are soo thankful for everyone's prayers. Please keep us in your prayers this week as we reach out into the local community and share Gods Love Us.

Any homesickness has gone and we are just enjoying and growing each and every day.

If you want to pass on a message to the group please do leave a comment and I will pass it on.
I promise more daily updates from tomorrow afternoon!

Blessings,
Steve
