Day 5: Adventure Cruise

The Adventure Cruise has arrived back at its port and the passengers and crew have all debarked.

Today we sailed the C of Commitment and shared the story of the 4 friends who were committed to get their lame friend to Jesus, even if it meant lowering him through a hole in the roof!

A fantastic week all made possible because of a great crew of volunteer helpers. Thank you to my orange people (those under 18) and the blue people (we oldies!)

Cesare Pavese once said, “We do not remember days, we remember moments” and we have many good moments to remember!

Evangelism @ Speakers Corner

“Every Christian is either a missionary or an impostor.” – Charles Spurgeon

Speakers Corner in London’s Hyde Park is the oldest free speech platform in the world. People won the right to speak in mass protests in the 1860s and early 1870s. Some people believe the tradition is connected to the right of the condemned to a last speech before being hung at the Tyburn gallows, a practice that stopped at the end of the 18th century. Every Sunday people from all sorts of convictions come to Hyde Park in the afternoon to spread their message or to have fun.

‘BodyBuilders’ Houseparty 2024

What is it?
‘BodyBuilders’ houseparties are packed with interest and provide excellent value for money. Campers are given the opportunity to explore new places, meet new friends, and take part in exciting activities!

Organised Houseparty activities include sports and games sessions, plus trips into the New Forest, a jaunt to the beach and a splash in a nearby swimming pool.
During ‘free time’ campers can just ‘chill out’ or use the onsite facilities e.g. table-tennis, badminton, table-football and a variety of board games.
The Houseparty is Christian based. That means that each day all campers take part in various forms of Bible study and prayer. The main learning time takes place in an action packed, fast paced programme called ‘T.G.S.’ (The God Slot).

‘BodyBuilders’ Houseparty is an inter-church event run by ‘Counties’ Hampshire.

Fun Theme – Explorers at the North/South Pole.
Teaching theme – Various New Testament characters.

*Expedition #1: Never too many mistakes: Simon Peter.
*Expedition #2: Never too ordinary: Stephen.
*Expedition #3: Never too bad: Saul of Tarsus.
*Expedition #4: Never too young: Timothy.

A very happy atmosphere and the children are really engaging with the songs, stories and activities. New links with children from Sarisbury school and others. Fewer junior helpers this year but more opportunities for them to feel needed and valued.

One Jnr helper told Penny today ‘I love this place!!! I can come here and be myself and help the kids and it’s just great.’

Pray for the kids, young helpers and our older ones too. Lots of lovely connections and interesting conversations.
