Exciting Possibilities for Sept!

So in my previous post i said i had a audition!

It was for a Schools band based in Plymouth that covers the Southwest! SO all the training i have had up here would be put to good use, but down south! :)

Its called L.E.D, and they go into schools doing lessons in R.E, P.S.E and others from a christian perspective. aswel as doing music and performances.

I would love prayer from people as L.E.D are deciding if they want me! its very exciting!

Here is their Web page if you want to have a look. !

Hello Everyone!

So yes... i am updating my blog!! a rare occurance i know!

So whats been going on...

after being back in Yeovil for halfterm, we came back and went straight into, Teaching week! yayy!,

so this included, morning on creation/evolution, the worlds most epic sex and relationships talk/day !, and... one that i dont remeber!! And filling out a massive form so we can do prisons work...!

Then we had Prisons week, so we go with Reflext the prisions teams in to some prisons and do alpha and life skills with the prisoners. I cant really tell you too much about it!But it was good and challenging and a rolacoaster of emotions.

Then last week was "Gorton Prep week"

Monday: my team leader was off really poorly, and i stayed late to help with the message buisness partnership, which is basically lots of rich buisness people who come and we tell them about what we do and give them pizza!

Tuesday: i was really poorly!

Wednesday: I had a audition for a possibility for next year.. will write more about this in a different post! THEN had a showcase performance for all the kids we've been teaching vocals, dance and drums to! which was a late one!

Thurs: Anouther one of my team went home poorly! and we had a dance lesson using the old blushUK Mic stands, which are sparkley silver!! veryyy exciting!

Friday: We spent the morning trying on BlushUK stage outfits! and deciding which ones we want to borrow for our week in Gorton!! :) this was fun! THEN! Steve and Lisa From Newwine came over and we did Planning for Newwine this summer! VERY exciting!!!! :)

There is NEVER a quiet week on Genetik, but it is SO much fun! and learning SO much!
This week i am in Gorton, on the east side of the city, we are doing mission, doing youthclubs, homeless work, detached work, lots of different things it should be good!!!

Prayers are always appreciated! :)

Lots of Love

Catch up....


So it has been a couple of weeks, so will have a brief catch up!!

LZ7 week was really amazing, it was really good to be in schools with them and see how they do lessons and assemblies and how they function as a band, I learnt lots of useful stuff that week!

since then we had a prep week for byker and a teaching week.

This week we were in Byker (newcastle) on our first Missions week. Byker is a strange place, it has a "wall" around it, which is like a block of flats that go around byker, and all the houses which are butlins style in the middle.
While we were there we have done school lessons, circus skills, did a performance and talk at a chatroom in the school which was really cool, and 3 youth clubs in the evenings, and 2 dance classes. We performed at the school in chatroom, dance and the youth clubs.
We were talking to the kids about how amazing they are and how beautiful God has made them, it was so amazing just to see this click in the kids heads and was such a privilege to get to know the kids over the week, who have such different lives to what i have had.
Every day the kids come and knock on the door at Laura and Chris's house (the eden workers) and they come in and chat to them and take their dog for a walk, Laura and Chris are amazing and like second parents to most of the youths on the estate!
We had such a amazing week up there absolutely loved it!
theres lots of pictures on facebook...
If you want to like my group on facebook the link is


Also here is a picture i look a bit silly in...
And here is a video from one of the youth clubs....
Mum and Dad and David are visiting tomorrow, then I'm in school with Tweleve24 (another message band) next week!

18th January 2010!

Hello Lovely blog readers!!!

so its 2011! and ive been here for nearly 5months now.
This term is very different to last term...
last term we did ALOT of training each morning and afternooon and placements every evening.
This term we have been split into "missions teams" there are 4 teams and they are all different, i am in a girlband with 3 others called Liberty.
each week of this term is going to be different, going to different places and doing different things.
This week we are in a school with Lz7 (one of the messages mission bands) they got a number 26 in the charts at the end of last year.
In a few weeks we are going to Byker in newcastle for a week, while we are there we will be doing performances in youth clubs and schools aswell as doing teaching. We are all VERY VERY excited about this!!
So i now only do 2 evenings in Oldtrafford doing Detached and Youth club. which means a little bit more sleep some weeks!!

Prayer points:

-Everyone here is starting to think about what we are going to be doing in septmeber... as ever i am undecided and have a few differnt options, so prayer that i decide and get the right options.

-for my missions team, and the other girls, Abi, Shelley, and Lydia. that are planning and missions go well.

-for good health, and no more getting poorly.

-i would really really really like a car, soo for some1 to decided to give me a car, or for about £2000 to somehow turn up would be lovely!!

if you wanna know more or have questions... let me know!

lots of love

Last friday we had a event at the lowery Hotel, which is a 5* MEGA posh hotel, my job with 3 others on my course was to greet guests in the main reception, as we were doing this the whole Manchester United Football team with Sir Alex Fergison walked through...!!! it was very very exciting!

This week we have done performance in vocals, we all had to choose a song and perfom it in front of the rest of our course, mine went very well, i was very please, but my vocal coach told me i smiled to much!!!! hehe!
In Drama we are comming up with christmas related sketches and we are performing them at a kids club in Decemeber.
And in dance we are still learning a few different routines to a few songs.

On the 6th of decemeber we have auditions in front of all our different tutors, as they are putting us in mission teams of 3/4's to work in after christmas for this i have to sing 2 songs and do a dance.

Also Yesterday we had to give a 5min talk on a topic of our choice relating to God, or the bible or a concept etc! we've had a week to prep for it. I was really really excited about doinng it. and Mine was called How to change the world in 5minuits.
It went so so well!!! i was so proud of myself! we had some visitors who work for Eden in and they were giving me feed back and it was so positive, i loved it.

Il leave you with that for now!!! :)

Thurs 14th Oct!

Heyyyy !
I haven't managed to get online for a while, but here is a quick update!

Everything is still going fine, teachings are interesting and challenging, this week we have been looking at evangelism.
The creativeness in the afternoon is good too, i reached all my goals in vocals this week which i was quite proud of! and we are learning a group dance and a solo one, in dance!!! In drama yesterday we pretty much freaked out the whole of the sharston industrial estate and all the message staff, we had to adopt a character of our choice get into that character mind set, then be released onto the estate to interact with "the world" as if it was the first time we had seen it. There were mock up fights with very confused passers by, lots of very very confused looking people!!! I shouted at some chavs because i thought they were people from genetik, turned out they weren't, but thankfully my mate came round the corner pretending to be a bird, which distracted them!!! :)

Last night was another eventful night in the world of Old Trafford.On the news lately its been saying that there is a rapist in our area, and last night some of the youths from youth club got chased my a bloke with a shot gun! Then had a bit of a incident at our house last night that i wont go into to much detail in, but basically had fire works thrown at it, then some random bloke jumping over the 5ft brick wall to try and get in our back door and look at us through the window at about 11pm last night!!!! thankfully we have lovely eden workers that came to our rescue, after the police suggested that it could just be some1 that was confused and thought it was there house....!! do u throw fireworks at your house?/ haha!

Its all fun and games, the youth club last night was amazing! :)

we are getting our Internet installed tomorrow :D yayayayayayyy!

I am coming home for half term in a weeks time :) if you would like to see me book me in now!! i will be making a appearance at church next Sunday!

Prayer points for now:
-Safety on our estate
-for the bloke that was in our garden
-strength, energy and good sleep
-that the Internet goes in okay!

Feel free to ask me questions ! :) i will try and get on here more :)
