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 :)

Hii!
Again its been anouther busy week here.
Last Saturday was Lz7's single launch at the Apollo theatre. For those of you who dont know Lz7 are a band, who have realeased a song called This Little Light into the main stream this week, and should be in the top 40 this afternoon. Its all about making Goodness fasionable and God famous. So we were all there at the launch helping out.
Sunday was church and chill out.
Monday we had a Accreditation day, which we have once a month to do our qualification training, and to be given lots of work to do at home. I have ALOT of work to do this year!!! prayers for this would be lovely, as i havent had to write anything sensible for a few years now.!!
Tuesday we had prayers and teaching in the morning at the message, and vocals in the afternoon, and then Alpha at our church in the evening. They give us food ! yay!!
Wednesday, we set off for Wales!! with all the genetiks in the lz7 bus/van thing and had time to play games, bond as a team go on walks that kinda thing. It was funny, everyone was getting excited by sheep, and how small the lanes were, they really wernt that small!!! apparently im such a country girl... hmmm!!!
we came back on friday, and we went food shopping!
Yesterday was saturday, i did some work for my qualification and dyed my friends hair :)
I have a cold... again!!! so prayers for my health would be cool. Beechams power is amazing!
We should be getting our internet installed on the 15th, so pray that all goes through okay.
and just general prayers for my area and stuff too:)
Hope your all well, !! let me know if anyone is actualy reading this???

Friday 24th Sept!
Hey everyone!
So! i will try and fill you in on the last week or so, Sometimes there are things that i wont be able to write on my blog, so if you reading this thinking I'm missing things out that is properly why!!
Last Thursday i came back up to the wonderful world of Manc, and went back to The Message on Friday!
This week has been our first week doing our placements and proper timetable! so my average week looks like this:
Monday- Prayers, Teaching, lunch, General creative workshop, tea, detached youth work on my estate.
Tuesday- Prayers, teaching, lunch, Vocal workshop, tea, Alpha
Wednesday- Prayers, teaching, fitness, lunch, Drama workshop, tea, Youth group at my church
Thursday- Prayers, teaching, lunch, Dance workshop, tea, Eden bus
Friday- refection's, lunch, Free afternoon to rehearse/ sleep!!
SO that is pretty much what i have done this week. We spent sometime meeting the bands that are at the message and hearing their stories, and getting some teaching on how to handle schools missions, in particular the question times, and what sort of questions they get asked.
We also had a worship meeting at our new church this week, and Me and one of my house mates are getting involved and helping out the next two Sundays, then being put onto the leading rota for the next year, which is all very exciting. By the sounds of it, it is pretty much a clean slate to be creative with. very exciting.
Having bible teaching everyday is a bit intense, but is good. Its very weird being back in the classroom and having to do lots of writing, and I've discovered i am not very good at sitting still!!!!
The early mornings are still a struggle, the bus goes at half 7, and some nights we wont be back in till 11pm. So prayers for energy would be really appreciated!!!
I would love to hear from some of the Yeovil lot, so feel free to comment or email me with questions about what I'm doing!!!
we should be getting proper Internet soon!! Ive had a argument with 02 today...!! so it should be on its way! haha!
hope you are all doing well

Monday 6th September!
Hey Everyone!
So today was Day1 of my two week induction to Manchester.
It has been amazing!!!!
I will try and do a little bit of a catch up of whats happened since Saturday,
We moved in on Saturday, In my house there is Me, a Girl Called Theresa and two girls from Manchester Called Leanne and Becca.
After being in the house about 2 hours, Leanne and Becca went out to a gig, leaving me and T (the 2 Southerners)in the house by ourselves.
After 10Minuit's we realised that the hot water wasn't working...!! ISSUE. we looked for ages for switches and couldn't find any! So we phoned Matt are course leader, and he came and rescued us and showed us how to work the heating system.
Then Sunday morning, we went to our new church St Brides Old Trafford if you want to look it up! We are based on a Eden project on our Estate, so we have 3 other people who live on the estate who go to our church, but they weren't there as they had to go to another church for a friends commissioning. The people were lovely, and i think we are getting involved with pretty much everything straight away.
On our way to church, which is only a few streets away, we turned a corner and witnessed our first house raid, a few police ran past with a heavy metal door knocky down thing!!! so that was interesting! then on the way home from church we got lost...!!!
we went to pizza hut for lunch with our Eden workers which was lovely, then we went to Asda, Our asda is a bit of cultural experience in itself!! its humongous and just so many different people. and we managed to get the wrong bus home, but it was okay!
Then today was are first day at The Message HQ !
Its such a amazing building, with soo many amazing people. We had talks from a few people about different projects we're going to be involved with, and what The Message are planning for the future. There is one particular project i'm really excited for, so would appreciate prayer as i try to decide how i want to be involved. If you want to know more just ask!
We finished early today, so me and Theresa decided to try and adventure to the Trafford Centre. In theory this was fine apart from The Message is in Sharston which is nowhere near the trafford centre!!!! soo we thought a adventure would be fun! and hopped on a random bus and hoped for the best!! it turns out it was right yay! and would be quicker to use that bus in the morning to get there, and managed to change buses to get to trafford centre. I even met a guy who used to live in yeovil on the bus!! crazy.
Trafford centre was AMAZING! SOOOO incredible! i will definitely be visiting there more often. Obviously not spending money though.
Then Me and Theresa came home, and started cooking tea, then all our electrics went out... uhohhhh!!
SO i left T cooking and i went on a mission to find our fuse box, actually couldn't find it anywhere!!!! our house is huge and i searched every cupboard pulled furniture out, and couldn't find it. So T went and asked out next door neighbour where theirs is. Ours wasn't in the same place, but she said that on some of them its outside at the back. Now, this normally wouldn't be a problem, apart from the fact that our landlord has lost our back door key!!!! SO we phoned Matt again!!
So Matt came round, and found are fuse box in a cupboard almost instantly!! but, it wasn't that. Our house it the only house that is actually being rented and that the message don't own or haven't used before. and it turned out that we're on a metre with a card, and we have to go to the little corner shop to top it up with electric!!! SO Matt sorted that out, and we're now running on our emergency £7 !
That's pretty much whats happened so far! My house mates are amazing, they are all properly on fire for God. We are having so much fun. I am truly loving it.
Its still slightly weird being away from home, and knowing how far away everyone is, but this is totally where i am meant to be for now. I might even be getting a northern accent!!! eeek!!
please please please email me at singit_fromtheheart@hotmail.co.uk

Lots of love

Lots of Love
