I've turned into a childrens worker for four days as I'm helping at our Oakwood Kids Camp with fourty 8 to 11 year olds. Apart from the sleep deprivation and the lack of anything other than instant coffee we're having a great time! Karen Mehta who is leading is doing magnificently, Lorraine Wade who is in charge of the food is everyones favourite person, I'm so proud of Lee and our youth who are leading groups, running activities, leading the worship and serving everywhere and the children all seem to be having fun.
Next Tuesday Catrina and I along with Ben and Mo Davies and Craig Mills head off to Chicago for the Willow Creek Leadership Summit (I'll Blog regularly from there to give you a taste of what we can expect when it comes to Bracknell in October), then as a family we've got two weeks in France coming straight back for Hope08 - what ever happened to restful summer holidays!
Hope you're having fun whatever you're doing. Think of me in my tent for the next two nights!
Simon.
