Update – 30th June 08

Hey everyone!

It’s been an insane couple of weeks since my last post, so just a quick summary for you all.

The weekend in London was awesome! I spent Saturday afternoon at the local fair in Wimbledon (which apparently is a annual event always held the weekend before the Championships), and it was a good day meeting people, and getting a feel for all the different things that go on there.

Sunday morning was spent at Hillside, where the “One Prayer” series continued with a special guest speaker. He ended up speaking in general on prayer, but it was great to hear some of his insights. Also, it was great to meet everyone at Hillside, and it’s going to be great to work with the guys there as we seek to see God’s kingdom come to Wimbledon.

Sunday afternoon was spent in Hyde Park, just relaxing ahead of heading home, and I headed up to Speakers Corner to see what all the fuss was about, and it was interesting to see all these different people “preaching” about different things that they believed in. While I was there, I had the opportunity to speak to some Messianic Jews who were there just sharing their message. It was such an encouragement to me to see them there, and to pray with them before I headed back.

Since that weekend, I’ve just been busy with work and preparations ahead of the move, but God seems to be using every single opportunity to speak to me about things in London, and how things are going to be there. It’s awesome to see that, and it’s firing me up even more for what God’s going to do.

Thanks for reading.

…And we’re off!!!

So things are finally falling into place for everyone. Jayma arrives in London next week, and she’ll be soon joined by Chris and Dana Byers, who have had a protracted battle with the authorities in the US for their visas to be approved. They were finally approved today, so they’ll be arriving back in the UK within the next two weeks.

I’m in Wimbledon this weekend to visit the church that will be hosting all of our activities, so that should be a good weekend.

Update

Hey everyone, Hope you’re all ok.

Just wanted to get out a bit of an update for everyone.

Work is going great at the moment, we’re about to start a new round of training in order to do a completely different task, because in doing (and completing) the first task, we created a backlog of work in the second!

Church has been awesome recently, amongst other things, I now lead a LifeGroup, and with One Prayer having started this past weekend, I now feel we’re into a momentus time. God is moving, people!

London update: I’ve been invited to lead what will become the youth program at the Network Church (AKA The Open Door). I’ve done a bit of youth leadership before, but something on this scale is completely different to anything I’ve done in the past! Prayers would be appreciated as I begin to step into this role.

Also, I’ll be heading to Hillside (the Church that is graciously allowing us to use their building for the services) in a couple of weeks to meet some of the people there, so I’m looking forward to that.

Finally, I’d love to know if there’s anything I can pray for you guys for.

Thanks for reading,

Keith
