Youth work...

What an incredible way to live... To live to affect the lives of youth. Personally i think its great, but then after this year i would wouldn't i...
On tuesday we had a day event with the local kids. Four of them turned up, which in some cases i think a small group if better... and in this case it was better. I think that it was easier for us to connect and for them to have our attention all the time. We took them to the beach to play volleyball have a bbq and then do some climbing and absailing...
It was great... the smallest guy managed to complete the hard climb that we had set up... i think that he was really pleased with himself, and we, well we were ecstatic about it.

Apart from tuesday, i help in the setting up of a youth group in a place called Camarthern every friday. Since i have been here i have helped out in numerous camps and youth events, and most of it i have enjoyed... there have been the times where i think, oh dear here we go again. However, last friday, when i was feeling like that, i prayed for energy and enthusiasm, and well by the end of it, the person that i help set up the youth group had noticed that i was getting more stuck in that week and asked why... so i told him, 'I Prayed'... there is some more proof to you that prayer works...

This weekend we have another youth event, well a camp, please pray that our leader will be able to come on saturday morning, so that i can go with him... the thing is, because we are setting up the youth group on friday nights, we can't go to the camp out that night... and then on saturday the camp is on the beach... but i need a way to get there and our leader is the only straight forward way... so please pray that he has the car...
Thanks
