weekend away!!!

So this weekend encounter and infinity went on our weekend away and it was really amazing. It was good getting to know the encounter girls and boys and bonding with people from infinity. Here's a quick low down on wat we did each day:

Friday- 7.30pm left church Arrived later in Buckden Buckden Towers looked well posh, the girls stayed on the top floor so we took our luggage all the way up the swirly stairs. Then our first meeting where Matt talked, he told this funny story bout a penguin. Then we played hockey which was well funny. We then had a drink and snack. Then off to bed. Claire and Alex were talking until 2.30am and chucking food at us!! And the boys were making lots of noise !!

Saturday: Woke up very tired, showered and starightened hair. Went downstairs for breakfast. Then we had our morning meeting were Lydnsey talked bout fellowship. We got given a sheet of paper that had 2 words bout fellowship, I got individuality and helping. I prayed about and it and felt God was telling me to be an individual at school and stand up for my faith also to help at mtl which has been on my heart for the last 6 months. Then we did this mini movie challenge which was really funny, ours was about a prison and we did a lot of running. After much exercise we went in for lunch, then bowling in the afternoon, we got lost getting there which was fun!! When we got back we had dinner and our evening meeting where Horward talked. After that we watched a movie called Remember the Titans which was really good and made me think about community. Then we went to bed, I moved bed three times during the nite so was very tired the next day.

Sunday: Our last day :( We got up and had breakfast. Then had our morning meeting. It was really good and me,gill and tasha got prayer for our friendship which i felt really helped us. I love u 2 so much. xx. Then we played loads of different games and packed away all our stuff. We had a lunch got everything together, cleared up and then at 3.30pm left Buckden ,we got back to wonderful luton, went home, had a shower then went to church, yer i must be mad to go out when i was tired.

The weekend was really good overall, thanks 2 all the leaders for making it good, especially Gill VDM for cooking, Andy for taking us and Toby for making me laugh. So that was my weekend, I've made some new friends, some emotions running high and the sense of belonging to a community. xxx
