Hello.

Hope you are avoiding the lurgy,both Diana and I have been battling through this week, taking it in turns to be ill!

It's been a busy week with all clubs now running. We started at Castle Hill this week, a small group but very eager and full of questions. Some of the things discussed highlighted the importance for clubs like RS in providing friendship for those who are lonely. Please pray for this group as it grows.

Back to the busyness

Hello. I returned from Wales last week after spending a week in a Castle for the Youth for Christ Staff Conference. It was a great time for teaching, with some excellent and inspiring bible studies lead by Leonard Sweet, so informative seminars and a time to reflect and pray into the work. It's always so encouraging to meet with other centres and hear the stories they bring, and to see over 400 people there all involved in the work of YFC in Britain! It was also a time to say farewell to Roy Crown the National Director of YFC as he moves on to new things.

But now I'm back and 2009 has great things in store for HSI. Diana Andre has returned from maternity to leave to do part time work with us, helping with the Parkway Rock Solid, we hope Rob will also continue his valuable contribution to the club.

We are also starting a new Rock Solid at Castle Hill Middle on Monday's after school for an hour. If you would like to be involved in this as a volunteer please contact us.

We are praying and looking into another mission week in a school, please pray as we seek to speak to schools.
