Hey all!!
Well, Christmas season is here again, this year has gone so fast it’s scary!
We’ve been so busy these past few months. I’m going to take you back to October and fill you in on our first schools week back after the summer. The week went so well, the kids responded to us fantastically throughout the week. We had 85 kids at the concert and 20 got up to respond to becoming a Christian which was amazing!
We have had one off gigs here and there too and it’s been great to work with the young people there too, to see the impact of what God is doing there is amazing. We had a church presentation at Swindon Family Church, which is now called Gateway Church but I keep calling it Swindon family still!! That went really well, Bee and myself worship at Gateway church on Sunday so it was great to give them an insight to what we do. They really enjoyed the evening!
The next school week we did was in Stroud at Thomas Keble School! The kids in this school we so well behaved it was scary!! We got on so well with them, including the teachers, they were incredible! Please pray for the head teacher there though, he isn’t a Christian but he should be, haha, he arranged the whole week for us didn't mind what we said in lessons about God, so please pray that he will find Jesus! At the concert we had approx 130 and 115 of the got up to respond to becoming a Christian, this is really overwhelming. We made a visit to them the following week at their youth group on the Tuesday night to see them and perform for them, it was a fun night!

Next week we are in Wootton Bassett high School, we are so excited for it but please pray that the teachers don’t get offended by the lesson content, they maybe quite sensitive to what we say. It will be a fun week though, my Host family’s daughters are both at the school the eldest is int year12 and the youngest in year 11,  they are actually quite excited for us to be coming in, I thought they might avoid me like the plague but they seem to be excited hahaha!!!

I almost forgot…. This weekend we’re all paying a visit to Cornwall as Space South West is being held down there and we have been invited to perform there in February time which will be exciting!!

I shall be be home soon (2 weeks I think)  so I shall give you a live update if I have left anything out when I am back!

Prayer Requests:

 
THANK GOD FOR THE OPPORTUNITIES HE HAS GIVEN US TO GO INTO SCHOOLS
PRAY FOR THE HEAD TEACHER AT THOMAS KEBLE, THAT HE MAY FIND JESUS
PRAY FOR STRENGTH AND UNITY AS A BAND, THAT GOD WILL MAKE US EMPTY VESSELS FOR HIM.

Thank you so much for your support,

With Love and Blessings
