Deanes Mission - Day Five

Hello Everyone

Well today was the last day of the Extreme week but certainly not the end of it. It was a good day with the TCC guys taking two year 9 lessons talking about drugs, sex, hell, heaven, abortion, homosexuality and loads more they have gone really well.

The girls where busy doing dance, drama and music. Today we also had the lunchtime concert which was well attended and went well, with loads of the young people joining in with the dance moves.

So what is next now?

We are doing the follow up concert next wednesday at the Church, which we are hoping to see loads of the young people come along and then attend Extreme which is being run within Radiate Tuesday and Ignition. So this is only the start....

Please Pray.

1 - The Deanes teachers are meeting next week to review the week, please pray that the meeting is postive and that we recieve feedback that is constructive in making Extreme and our work as a Church a really valuable thing for the school

2 - I will also be back in the school on Monday for the Christian Union, please pray that this is another way to follow up our work

3 - I will be meeting with the head of RE next week to book lessons on Christmas, please pray that I get to see all the Year 7's again and comtinue to build relationships with them.

4 - For rest and inspiration for the team over the weekend, Myself, Dave, Steve, Andy, Alison, Sophie, Kat, Laura and Vicky

Thank you for your prayers over this week, this website will be update regualry covering our work in the schools.

God Bless

Deanes Mission - Day Four

Hey Guys

Well today has been intresting for us guys we have been doing some intresting re lessons, Dave Pickett joined us for a year 9 lesson, which was quite tuff! as the pupils where asking questions but not listening to our answers which made it seem like the lesson went on for ever!

The year 7 and 8 lessons have been fun, tomorrow we have just a couple of year 9 lessons, as we have now seen all of the year 8 and 7's. Tomorrow is also the lunchtime concert.

Points to pray for.

1. The lunchtime concert tomorrow
2. The year 7 assembly tomorrow
3. That our ignition kids will find it cool to stand up for God
4. For general relationships to last beyond this week
5. To start to pray for the follow up concert next wednesday (7th November)
6. Also for the firework event this Saturday.

Many thanks
Richard
