Tonight we had a wee meeting at work to discuss and pray for cafe-red… We set it all up as we hope to have it on Saturday nights, and man, it looked so class! Like, im get realy excited now. I think it will fill a gap in peoples weekends… we’re aiming to cater for 20’s + 30’s age group, which doesnt really have that much to do at the weekend.
This weekend is launch night… Ally’s wee bro Steven (Stephen?) is playing, along with Jeremy Gardiner. Not quite sure how many to expect as there is a big concert on the same night (Micheal W Smith and Delerious?), but we’re hoping there will still be a good crowd along.
So if you happen to be in the area… pop in and relax for a while with some good music and a great coffee!!

well I’m off on holidays for a few days now. My family and I are heading down to Portstewart for a week, so we will most likely do very little and have a great time doing it! It will of course mean trips to Barry’s Amusements, several beaches, the swimming pool, Coleraine, Portrush, Portstewart, Carrick-A-Reed rope bridge, and who knows where else. Unfortunatley this means my blog will be down all week pretty much, I doubt I’ll get internet access…. nooo! Anyway… have a great week guys and I’ll see you all soon!

Things are really kicking off now… big prayer meeting last night (Seekin’ Meetin – because we’re seeking Gods face) and a prayer breakfast tomorrow morning, before we start on Monday morning.

Nothing particularly exciting with me today, have had quite a busy day with different stuff thats been going on. Had my first AS level exam today, physics practicle- not good. Really difficult stuff but hey what can you do?! Thought i’d post another sunset picture today, they’re just so pretty and I love them!

Well yesterday I took the day off school and went to Balmoral Show – great fun! Watched a (very small) bit of the cattle judging with dad, good for a bit of bonding you know, and just generally pottered about. The afternoon was very nice indeed, took a trip into Belfast for a bit of shopping and stuff.
I found this great wee cafe-type place, called Flour, which makes crepes with all sorts of toppings. For example, I had a savoury crepe with bacon and maple syrup- sounds weird I know, but it was sooo good!! They had lots of other random toppings on the menu, like ‘sweet and sour chicken with cheese’, ‘belgian chocolate with mini marshmallows’, and ‘ham cheese and pinapple.’ Loving it!
Hmm so yes, now I wish I was back in Flour…

Well, Ally, I finally got around to getting my very own blog… so here it is! How exciting, my first post.
Have had a fairly uneventful day today, was at work most of the day, but it was nice to have some time to lie in and just chill around the house for a change- no rush for school!
I have just finished reading Purpose Driven Youth Ministry this afternoon (another benefit of lazy days with no school etc) – great book. It has filled me with lots of new ideas and strategies for CU in the next year, far too many to list them all now but i will fill you in as i begin to make sense of them all. For now, heres what im thinking…
‘When you understand why your ministry exists, you will want to more carefully focus your time.’
‘If you are a leader who lives out the purposes, you will pull people instead of push them.’
‘Don’t allow doing the work of God to come at the expense of being God’s person.’
‘In all of your communication, express your heart; we want to see students grow spiritually.’
I guess what im saying is that im being reminded of how important it is for me to spend quality time with God. The more i see of Him, the more others will see of Him in me.
