Still alive...

Hi Everyone,

I just thought I would update you a little bit on what is happening up here at the IMC. So Last week we went to a Christian activity centre called Min-Y-Don and spent 4 days there doing many activities, i can't disclose all of the information about them, but i can say that i have now skinned and eaten a rabbit! Fun times! Then we had a nice relaxing weekend, we had no lectures or anything on Saturday and so just had a lazy day, popped into town for a bit and played some silly games! Then yesterday (Sunday) we went to a church int he morning, all the Action Teams were split into groups to go to different churches, and then after that we had an AMAZING lunch, steak! Then another lazy day, with some silly games, but lots of washing up! Then that evening we had a worship session which was really good, and amazing to worship with 35 other young people all sharing the same thoughts and aspirations!

Today we have returned to world of lectures, and have just been told how to write our prayer letters!

Hope this find you all well!

I am here!

Hey Guys,

So I am now here at the IMC we are just baotu to finish our 2nd full day of training, and everythign is going sweimmingly. All the teams are getting along, and are just having a laugh, and everyone gets along with everyone! It's really amazing to meet with 36 other "young" people who all have the same goals and abitions as you for the next year ahead.

Tonight I was shown some pictures by a previous Action Teamer, who went to North Brazil, and it looks AWESOME! Can't wait to get there now! It's going to be such an awesome, and fantastic year!

Hope this finds all fo you well!
