End of Summer highlights

As we draw to the end of the summer holidays and begin to look forward to September and all the excitement that brings, I can't help but reflect on how blessed we are! 

We were able to take part in three holiday clubs reaching over 200 children in total with the Gospel this summer. I cannot thank God enough for those opportunities. 

Our first holiday club we dived into the jungle and joined St Georges church, Wilton in Taunton and their team of volunteers to deliver their first holiday club in over 10 years! We were so excited to be journeying with them on this adventure. At first we were very worried as most of the team they had available to serve were over 70 years of age with a few 30's around. But it worked! Isn't God amazing! And aren't the faithful servants, these retired teachers and Sunday school teachers amazing! We brought utter chaos, games, craft and music and they loved it. They are already asking for the next one. 

Our second holiday club we were part of was at a church very experienced in running holiday clubs, but one we consult for. They have team and resources and run two a year but have got us on board to help them improve and develop the team with them. They dived into the Ocean for an under sea adventure and on our recommendation started to use prayer ministry times and soaking times with the Holy Spirit in their holiday club. They were able to see children engaging with the spirit and praying. How fantastic is that!

Our third and final holiday club was one where we weren't present at or consulting at but resourcing! We joined with Creech Baptist Church in Taunton to provide them with two van loads of stage decorations and props for their space themes holiday club. They are a thriving church who prioritise children and holiday clubs as they see the value in this. The problem they were finding was that they didn't have enough storage for all the holiday club equipment they kept creating and found between everyones lofts and sheds they were loosing bits and having to destroy or breakdown what they had created each year. We offered our 2000sq ft unit of space and said they could come borrow what they need to avoid making things they didn't have to and they could donate things they had for use by other churches too. The day they saw the unit for the first time was amazing! They were like children in a sweet shop!  

We feel so blessed we are able to help churches in so many different ways reach the children around them. Please continue to pray for us as we do this and please do consider if you could help support this work we do by either becoming a regular supporter or joining the traveling team.
