Hi everyone. What a month we have had. Here are a few highlights. (click the picture to enlarge)The Semester is finally over and even though it is sad when the students leave to go home, it was a huge blessing to be a part of it. The students were challenged and in return grew in their love and faith in the Lord. We had wonderful times in our Hebrews, Exodus and DPS (Dead Preachers Society) classes. Thank you all so much for your prayers!
We had wonderful "listeners week" near the end of the semester up in the Yorkshire Dales and God truly spoke and we indeed listened. I had the wonderful opportunity to baptize one of my students, Lucas. (Click on the pictures to enlarge)
A group of us were out in the Dales, by the Aysgarth waterfalls and after talking for a while Lucas asked if I would baptize him. I was of course excited and humbled at the prospect and then he said lets do it now, here at the falls. So we did, it was a wonderful and moving time with a few of his close friends to share with him. God is way too good!
We also had the privilege of being involved in the engagement of two of my students, Jonathan and Nicola. We had a wonderful day out in Fountains Abbey and at the appropriate time Carolyn slipped Jonathan the ring. It was awesome! (Click on the pictures to enlarge)
God looked after us by giving us a great day and beautiful spot. And then when our camera ran out of battery, we asked a couple passing by if they could help us out by taking some photos with their camera and emailing them on. God provided two lovely Christians, Tim and Sadaf! Praise the Lord, and yes they sent on the photos.
All in all a wonderful semester. Through sickness and difficulty and lots of good times, God has challenged and strengthened us.
Thank you all so much for your continued prayers and encouragement.

We're so thankful to God for sending you to Calvary Chapel York and the influence you have had on our son Jonathan. We also loved the role you and Carolyn played in his engagement!
Who are those crazy kids in the photo's above??? And didn't I JUST get off the phone with you! It was good to hear you spending time pouring into the summer service team, as you dominate scrabble! BTW, is "fankled" a word???
