24th September- Gibraltar (yes I'm still there :P)

So today was the first day I started to feel home sick! I havn't even been here a week, how silly is that??! :P I miss England and the routine I lived and the people there! So as I felt the urge to cry I went for a walk through the town. It's very sunny today (unlike yesterday...rain and Gibraltar?? Why??) and I brought myself an icecream and walked along the harbour. It truly is a beautiful sight down there but I felt quite lonely still. So when your feeling lonely...in your neighborhood...who you gonna call?? JESUS CHRIST!


So yeah you guessed it.. I prayed. As I was walking back to the house I passed a gym, and inside the window was a leaflet for a salsa class. So I noted down the email, because I enjoy salsa, so I might make some more chums at a few sessions. When I got back home there was an email telling me my singing lesson was confirmed and that I was welcome to join National Gibraltar Choir Rehearsals! God was answering my prayers once again, how awesome... I've also booked flights for returning for Christmas so that has made me feel more relieved! If I had a song of the day it would be "My Will"-DC Talk. I advise you give it a listen, I find it relevant to my everyday life at the moment.  :)


So onto the serious update :P
Mother and Toddler group Wednesday was a huge success apparently, there were 5 new mums and toddlers! Aww they are so cute, I really enjoyed it. Plus most the mums have moved over from England and were quite young so I felt I was able to communicate with them more than I thought I would.
Next week is apparently when the hard work starts, I am talking to head teachers about what they need me to do and suggesting some ideas of my own. Eeeek! Scary stuff, so please pray for me for those events!


I have also completed timetable, flyer, listing, ideas and the sketches for the holiday club in November Half term (Yay!!) and am waiting for approval and the thumbs up to go through with it. If I get approval I then need to find some volunteers to help and then more importantly CHILDREN! Its a 3 day Pirate Party with games (you may get wet!) songs, food, arts and crafts, fancy dress, drama sketch and the theme of "treasure" aka Jesus. So please pray that I have the approval and that things will run smoothly!!


I don't think there is much to inform, but I will update my blog when there is =] Thanks for reading!
P.S. The pictures are of my new church and of the childrens room!
