excited and expecting a time of blessing at this challenging time for myself
the group are formed and ready to experience shalom and wrestle with the God and Jesus principles evident at Greenbelt.

york



summer around the walls of York
for many of our young people the project gives them only chance to get away from the village
also with us being very rural
opportunities to explore other areas are very limited
hence York and the walls along with the railway museum


lookin more like a harry enfield `ole git`

just a few thoughts

there are some people who even thou you don`t meet them often
the memories stay with you as you get older
thier presence, character stay with you
a glance back at photo reminds a time
me l travel back in my head to be with them,
smell them,
touch.

then you wake up?


same for you?



well we survived a tremendous downpour around 10 this morning and it not a great deal better now
but God bless those experiencing worse in Pakistan and Chile.
sometimes the warmth is not evident in the UK but our structures and historical investment help us cope with weather events.

what investment am l leaving for those in the future.?

what has Kevin built that will benefit others when l leave?



this was last summer in the Windle valley a normal August day
this appears to be the rhythm now
late august means autumn temperatures and cold chilly weather

the seasons appear shorter getting beautiful godness sunsets across the fields along the golden harvest
around this time of year across 21,15-21 45 you can get the sun going down and the moon rising
beautiful thank you Jesus
thank you lord

where next in the journey of life



soon l will not harbour anymore in this rural village
like often l not sure what lies ahead
only that even though my faith is momentarily weak
he has already gone before me
not ready to leave just yet.

l hope you dance


l hope you always feel small alongside the northsea
l hope you miss me today
but l hope you dance

oh no

Well it must be my age or something like it?
l feel really drained and cold again today
the big test will be how l feel in five days time as l understand something is passing thru my system.
major event last Friday the weather was really the spoiler but there nothing l can say to change that
we just have to get on with whatever comes our way
and remember what the bible says
"THE RAIN COMES ON THE JUST AND THE UNJUST"

cayton bay 2010



a bar b q went the way it should the food was brilliant and the atmosphere around the campfire was real magic



this is Debi before she fell outa the hammock
all the fun of an old fashioned camp
away for 3 days at the coast not far from scarboro




dropped down by the Cliff face into the caves at thorn wick bay
slightly magical but very cold
always have to be aware of tide times and depth at this place

sharing the love and the gossip



tried to get the bardie going and it took three hours
but in the end it was worthwhile
barbies are very sociable things
but we so often fastrack them into quickie food cook




they have lot of barbie on the sopranos
taking about business
while the meat is grilled over hot colas

Jesus would have had barbies going round at church
food is very Evangelical
talk eat share

The Matthew blessing,

  The Matthew blessing, May God grant us enough stupidity to believe? We can go from this place and make the world a better place, May we wi...

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
