We have had quite a few weeks of travel, nothing major or mad but good chunk of miles racked up and a lot of great people in some great places!
We spent some time a few weeks ago in Strathdon where we have some CLAN Gathering planning meetings, for the Young Adults program. This was fantastic, the team we have is outstanding, plenty of really spiritually deep people, with lots of ideas we can bring to the Young Adults this year!
The weekend after that for me and Zoe was spent in Belfast being spoiled by my parents and catching up with mainly close family.
The weekend just gone has been spent in West Kilbride and Livingston! We arrived in West Kilbride on Thursday last week to spend a couple of days meeting with YWAM peeps to catch up relationally as well as talk strategy and vision with our line leader, Dave Ausdahl. And then there was a YWAM Scotland BBQ!! Around 80 - 90 people were there, as was a bouncy castle and lots of food!! Great times!
Sunday was then the Almond Vineyard, and a hog roast! Warning, hog link not for faint hearted or vegitarian... Again lots of food and lots of good people, and another bouncy castle!! This one wasn't for adults tho... :(
So we are now all back in Aberdeen!
This week we have lots of meetings, including the pastors/ministry leaders lunch, various friends and collegues as well as hopefully an American girl called Sarah who has a real heart for Aberdeen, God inspire her to bring her gifts to this city! Oh and we also have a Scottish Sarah(Bell) staying with us as she progresses towards moving to Aberdeen to work in Dyce High School.
As usual lots on the go, need to get back to work on www.northatlanticdreams.net, and www.secure.clangathering.org.uk, and a bit on another soon to become visible site!! Oh it is a lot of fun!!!
God is good and He is the one who inspires!!!!
Praise Him.
