It's been an interesting week. The post has brought more orders for the CD and I plan to run these off next week and send them out.
A sad note was sounded on Thursday afternoon when we took Doreen's car to the garage and she bade farewell to both it and driving. She is getting on very well with the electronic shopping scooter.
We had a great choir practice at the prison on Tuesday. Only once choir member missing and some items sound seriously good. I wish I could record it for you!
On Wednesday Doreen and I joined the Yelvertoft Senior for the annual lunch which was held at West Haddon. One lady there had been asking about the Congregational church in the village and tells me she is coming this Sunday morning (if she can cope without the Archers!). We followed this up with some pastoral visiting.
Also on Thursday the YP and their leaders came to visit Torch Trust and present a cheque for £700. That's enough to buy 38 goats for poor families in Malawi. There are a lot of photos on my Facebook page.
After the presentation the YP and leaders tries on various glasses that replicated sight loss. They also went on a tour of the offices, recording studio, printing works, library and despatch area.
The rest of the week was taken up with some study, some admin and miscellaneous activities. These included getting invitations out for the next rural church leaders meeting for south Leicestershire, north Northamptonshire and Rutland.
This coming week:
Sunday 27th Yelvertoft CC (Pathways to a lasting peace)
Monday 28th Study/Admin
Tuesday 1st (Wedding Anniversary) Gartree Prison
Wednesday 2nd busy at Yelvertoft (and possibly a prison activity). Collect Country Way magazines from Stoneleigh, Warwicks.
Thursday 3rd Mostly study and writing
Friday 4th Study and prep for Sunday
Saturday 5th Mission and Society Committee in Nottingham
Sunday 6th Yelvertoft CC
No formal day off this week but I plan to take time out each day, if possible. I have only one evening commitment this week.
Thanks again for visiting this blog and for your prayers. Do take a look at the Yelvertoft pictures on my facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=696458192.
