weekend away - Going deeper

the weekend away was awesome. left church on friday night at about 7-30. thanks Gordon for giving us a lift there. was a laugh on the way there, we got a bit lost!! but we got there in the end. so we arrived found our rooms and got them ready. them upstairs we went to the room we were meeting in to start the weekend. the book we were studying was Daniel chapters 1-6. we worshiped and then had a talk and God was really present, then we went into our small groups to do cell. which was cool. then we chilled and watched a video and had free time. didnt get a lot of sleep! went to sleep roughly 2-30 and i woke at 7! but it was cool, then in the morning after we;d had breakfast howard did a talk which was really awesome and after we had small groups again. in the afternoon we went bowling! i won in our team with a score of 108! then me and dan had a game of table hockey (i think thats what its called) Dan beat me by 1 point! after we arrived back at the centre we had a time to chill so adam me tash emma went for a walk and then we met up with the others and went for another walk, where i fell over cause i was turning round talking to adam! i have a lovely big bruise on my leg now! in the evening the worship was awesome, i really felt God and i prayed for people. when we went into small groups our cell desided not to do the outline but to pray and it was really awesome and i felt really at peace after we did. then we had a time to chill out before bed, which was a laugh. so went to sleep again about 2-30/3 and woke up at 6! after breakfast we went up for our last meeting and the responce was really good,we could stay in there if we wanted to and worship, i stayed and i really felt God. then we had cell and that was cool, we wrote encouraging things on paper for one another. then i helped cook sunday roast and we cleared the rooms and got ready to leave. about 3oclock and claire came and got us and took us home - (thanks claire) and i fel asleep in the car! then arrived back at church about 3-50.

so the weekend was really awesome. i spoke briefly at church about it tonight. i definatly have gone deeper with God and with all the members of infinity that came to the weekend away. the highlights for me are going to be:

* my cell all going deeper with God and each other
*the worship and how awesome it was
*God might have given me the gift of tounges - but im not completely sure so still praying about it
*cubby bunnies and pictionary! cubby bunnys was funny and i wont forget it and dan putting 14marshmellows in his mouth!


so the weekend was really good and God really spoke to me in many ways. tonight at church i went for prayer and God has now helped me to feel at peace - thank you christine for praying with me. also thank you to charlie for organising the weekend and thank you to all the leaders. its a weekend that wont be forgotten :+)

ive got more i could write about and i might write about it later but right now im going to go to bed as im pretty tired, but those are the main points which are special to me. xxx
