Unexpected circumstances

God works in mysterious ways; In my last post, I mentioned a mission trip I was planning on going on, to the Philippines. Lenny & I held a fundraiser, and ended up with the exact dollar amount to get both of us there.

And then I fell off my bike.

Cardboard and Catchups


A few weeks (months?) ago, I was lucky enough to give the talk at our Youth Group. Following the great testimonies we heard on our camp, we wanted to inspire more young people to share their faith with others.

Dusting off cobwebs.

I'm sorry. So sorry. It's been almost 3 months since my last post. So let's dust off those cobwebs, and get back into it.

This post is a promise, from me, to you. I promise to update this blog more often, with more content, and more video! The video part of this promise isn't too far away - I was lucky enough to give a talk at Youth Group last Friday. As soon as I've edited it together, I'll post it up here for your viewing pleasure.

So stay tuned, get excited, and get ready!

Raising Funds and Studying Hard


I haven't posted in a week; but what a week it's been! Off the back of my last post, our Crave service was a fantastic evening, with the Youth really shining in their service (pun intended). The highlight of the night though, without question, was our very own "village idiot" - Jimmy Young.

Crave: Testimonies and Witness

Last Friday was the first part of our 2 part Youth orientated service, with the conclusion taking place at the evening service this Sunday night.

We set up the church in a classic 'chilled out' arrangement, with couches  replacing pews, and candles everywhere. The mood lighting and modern band made for quite an evening.

Crave and Testimonies


I love my youth group. Our annual camp is coming up - this is our promo video.

Also, I'm giving my testimony this Friday. Pretty pumped for that. I haven't had a chance to share my story recently, so I've got a few things to add, ways that God has been working recently in my life.

I'm hoping to get it recorded, so I might get it up here, depending on how happy I am with it..

I've decided to start a blog. Here it is.

Come in, sit yourself down, and make yourself at home. Not in the 'walk around in your underpants' way, but in the 'put your feet on the couch, but use a coaster, cause we don't want to ruin our nice coffee table' kind of way.
