"The Name's Bond...James Bond - Your Mission...Zimbabwe!"
We recently had a costume party here at Capernwray and I didn't put my usual thought and effort into my outfit. Hence, at the last moment I had to go for the dinner suit and slicked back hair look. I even had to borrow the gun...from a cowgirl! You will have guessed by now who I'm supposed to be...that's right, the tax man! Do note however, that I cut off my sideboards, the first time since I was about 19! I felt naked without them - luckily they're back now!
It was great fun and everyone had a fantastic time and (apart from me) put so much effort into their costumes.
As you may know, I have the chance to go to Zimbabwe in February with a team from Capernwray. I am very keen to go to a totally new culture and have the opportunity to share the gospel, but the cost is £1,000. I am therefore trying to do some pretty quick fundraising.
We would be working mostly with children and young people alongside the Bishop and Minister from Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe.
I would very much appreciate your prayers, that this would be a trip that God wants me to pursue.

Picnic on the Beach...IN NOVEMBER!!!
I can't believe that it's November already. It doesn't seem like five minutes ago it was July. Well I'm a quarter of the way through the winter term here at Capernwray. I'm still really enjoying being here but I feel like it's taking me much longer to get to know people than it did in Spring School, but good friendships are worth taking your time over!
Last weekend was travel weekend and I went up to Morpeth to see Jenny. Would you believe we had a picnic on the beach even though it is November. As you can see from the picture, we were well dressed up, but the sun was shinning.
I spent last night (Friday) walking around Kendal in the pouring rain putting cards through doors, inviting people to a new church which is being started in the town. I guess we delivered about 300 cards so I pray that their service this Sunday will have a few extra people who are seeking the Lord.
