wedding stationary

Have spent the last few days being a bit crafty! It's been a while but I had fun. I was making some prototype wedding invitations for my Brother and his fiance. They may not like them, but I have definately enjoyed myself.
Have also tried to crochet but as of yet am a bit rubbish! Am thinking I must try harder, however it is in my nature to give up if I can't do things really well, straight away!! Hense still not really playing/practising my guitar, despite it's beautiful pinkness!

Am really looking forward to my day off tomorrow! Hooray!

walking through the bible

Last night we took our youth group through a whistle stop tour of the Old Testament, with a little help from the Lego Bible and Issy (Former Theology student!).
It was great, going through the timeline and discussing where we think people's relationship with God was at varying points in the journey. It was a really great time of learning for all of us, young and not so old!
Taking a moment to remember God's promises to his people was helpful, especially as thus far January has lived up to the impending sense of doom I felt about it on New Years Eve.

As the big man said to Josh, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."
Words I am holding onto this year.

NEW YEAR/NEW TEMPLATE

I am going to try and keep the old blog up to date from now on!
I confess that I have become Facebook obsessed, but I am not sure how healthy it is.
So onwards and upwards into a year of possibilities!
