For the Greater good...

Hey! so its been a little while since my Last post heres an update!

Unite was brilliant! even though it was not packed out with young people God moved in dramatic ways! Chains were broken! I got a chance to catch up with some of the young people from my small group at Re:Act and prayed with one of them! Prayer storm was phenomenal the speaker James did a fantastic Job! he spoke a 100 words a second but the young people really responded! We prayed for areas of Warrington and that God would move in them and we would be united for him! Very excited to see what God is going to do in warrington!

United we Stand.

So now that the church has said yes i have been exploring Lymm some more and it is a beautiful little village! (For the greater good) its small but lovely! Went for a prayer walk around the school with Darren and just prayed God would open and prepare the hearts of the students and teachers for Jesus.


The village (For the greater good)


I have got a great support network around me and i have a brilliant Family at YFC. Everything is going really well here! I am really looking forward to the national day of prayer at Wembley! on saturday the 29th os september. 20 of us young people are going to be in Gidion's army, this means not only that we get a cool free hoodie but we get commissioned and prayed for by Mike pilavachi, the ides is that we would take back the passion and enthusiasm back to our youth groups, towns, school, universities and see God move! Its going to be a great day!

I am back down south after the national day of prayer till the 3rd (wednesday) to pick up my belongings and my HAMSTER :D :D It will be a good time for me to spend with friends and family to say farewell and also my Dad's heart has deteriorated while i have been away so prayer for that would be great :)

thanks for Following me on this new adventure With God!

God Bless

Accepted...

So since my last post i haven't really been up to too much, in a way its been lovely just to not be doing anything and rest but also very odd as i was SO busy during DNA. During the past week or so i have been meeting people in and around the church slowly getting known and helping with things such as toddlers and 2 of the youth groups, its been fab but it gets better.

So i found out on tuesday i think it was that i have been accepted into cliff college! i'm super excited slightly worried about the work load but with support i'm sure it will all be fine! Also tonight was the church meeting to find out weather i would be up north for good and I AM! The meeting went really well! i left and it was just a waiting game! after coming out of church and walking 15 mins in the wrong direction! once i finally got home i got a phone call to say your in! What a relief!! God has totally been in this 100% and i am so excited to see what God is going to do with me here! The people here are so lovely! They have accepted me so well!

I have met the new WYFC worker Darren and i'm super excited to be working along side him doing detached and schools work along with other bits and bobs!! Unite is on tomorrow and its joined by prayer storm! chains are going to be broken! Unite is a monthly worship event for young people and around 70-100 young people will be there im' super excited! Going to be with the team all day praying chilling and just having fun!

This whole journey as really just proven to me if you step out and trust God 100% he WILL meet you and not let you down! Praise God!

where God leads he Provides.

Darren... Bless him.

End of the old, Beginning of the new.

So DNA is over... for those of you that don't know, DNA is "your year in with God" its a discipleship year, its intense and challenging but i promise the best year of your life. It's so strange that its over, i miss the people, the team, the support BUT life goes on and God never leaves. DNA has helped my foundations in God become so much stronger and the love i have for Jesus keeps me going! 


The Family, forever in my heart.


So i did actually attempt to blog during DNA but as you can tell it failed. 


what now?

Well now starts the begging of my new adventure with God, the reason i am blogging is so the people that want to know whats going on in my life can follow!


Im sitting in my new bed well.... i'm just keeping it warm for Charlotte while she's at uni ;)
i'm in a new place, slightly odd place really these northern folk are a bit strange. While i'm full of excitement there is a slight ounce of sadness in me. It's not an easy thing to leave everything, your friends, family, church, town, cat.... With what felt like life just getting into the rhythm of things i felt God call me away. the whole 19 years of my life i have never left Hertford for more then 3 weeks at any one time so this was not easy, But i am not worried for i know God is 100% with on this journey and over the past few weeks the words i have had in my head the whole time are Step out, in fact i have had them words written on my foot for the most part. 

Why are you up north you might be asking.

I am up north with the possibility of working in a church (Lymm baptist church) in a youth/community role. I have met with the church pastor and a few of the elders and now i am just waiting for them to have there meeting and let me know there decision. I have been accepted into cliff college on the youth mission and ministry course, as much as i am excited to learn and be stretched, academic work is not my strongest point so i know its going to be tough but i also know i can do it. The family i am living with are incredible, i miss my host family on DNA ridiculous amounts and it broke my heart to leave such a loving and caring home full of God, but i have to say the acceptance and love i am receiving from my new family just blows me away. 

Sacrifice is never easy, thats why its called sacrifice.
God Bless
