Audacious!!

On Monday the 2nd of August we set off!! there was Stuart, George, Jonathan, William, Wes, Caleb, Luke, Lee, Nathan and Mark for the boys and Jayne, Becca J, Jodie, Jordan, Susan and Me for the girls.



We traveled for an hour and a half (which i dont remember coz i fell asleep!) And when we got there we had a compition to put up the tents.....



It was boys against girls! Which obviously the girls won!!



After the boys defeat, we cooked burgers, which were delicious!



We then went to the Monday night confrence, where there was awsome music and John Bevere spoke!

He spoke on Grace and how Grace is empowerment. And if you ask for Gods Grace in everything you do, you will benefit ten times more than if you do the thing without Grace.



When the conference had finished for the night, we went back to the campsite; where we had a treat of toasting marshmallows on the fire and having banana with mars inside. we also had a discussion about the Grace of God which was really powerful. Then all the girls went back to their tent and had "story time" and a devotion which was really good and talked about the Love of God.....



In the night I had a really good sleep apart from when I woke up half way through the night. I was face to face with Susan so rolled over in fright, to find Jodie talking to herself in her sleep. So I sat up quick to see if Jordan was OK and she was snoring her head off at the other side of the tent. So I layed back down and fell back to sleep.



The next morning we were woken by George shouting something to Jayne from the other side of the field. hehe! and also the smell of the gorgeous bacon sandwiches was in the air :0)



Tuesday morning we went to part two of John Bevere's sermon, where he continued to talk about Grace



After a short break we heard Russel Evans who gave a very funny sermon!



Then we went for lunch and had a sub way!!!



Then after dinner we went back to Audacious & were split into groups for 14& under, 15& over, missionary work and leadership. So our group got split into different groups. me and a few others went into the 15& over group and we had a man called Dez talk to us about challenges we face today as young people that are Christians, which really helped.



We then went back to the campsite, and had another competition to take the tents down, and the girls won again!



Traveling home was fun on account of we stopped of to have fellowship...... and a Chinese in Huddersfield! We had a buffet and Mark and others found themselves eating a few plate fulls with desert!!!! but it was a good way to end a great trip and I cant wait for next year!!!



Thank you!!! :0) Photos will be on a slide show shortly!!

friday of mission week!!


today was the fun day, with stalls and more face painting!! we also had a barbecue that tasted FAB!!!!!X
Plus there was a very deep drama that was really challenging for your faith in Jesus Christ and also challenged your walk with Jesus Christ!!
the drama was about a girl that was created by God, just like you and me. she danced with God and God showed her amazing things. Then she has a relationship with a boy that starts to separate her from God, but without the girl even realising it. then money pulls her away and she finds herself falling deeper into sin. after that alcohol gets involved and which pulls her even further away. after that a model comes and the girl envy's the model for having good looks and being skinny. so the girl tries making herself skinny by making herself poorly. then someone comes along and says they have a solution why doesn't she slit her wrists. the girl is now so in sin and so depressed that the person hands her a gun. at first she struggles but the sin in her life is so much. she glances at God and hopes for an answer................

then she fights to get back to God and tries with all her might and all her power but she starts to grow week so God comes in and takes the burden of all her sin and she prayer's for forgiveness. God destroys that sin, helps the girl and continues to share the wonders of the kingdom with the girl..... in reflection i think that the girl is so deep in sin that it looks like there is no way out. But there is a way out and his name is Jesus Christ and hes waiting so that he can push away sin and give u a hug and tell you its going to be OK..... you just have to let him.

thursday of mission week








Thursday was really good!!! there was face painting and also the drama got deeper and started to show how people have to make decisions on your walk with God!!! we also had football tournaments and volleyball tournaments and the winners got to collect there medals from the Mayoress of Rotherham herself!!! so another great day!!
