So this is my first blog that i am going to write, I'm hoping to write on once a week it should be ready Sunday morning every week.
OK for people who don't know the story so far let me just explain to you what has happened. I went to soul survivor (http://www.soulsurvivor.com/uk/) at the begging of August, from there i learnt about Pais. its a free Christian gap year (i get free food, accommodation, and travel) where young people are placed in a host church around the UK, then work on behalf of the church in the local schools in CU's, in assemblies, after school clubs or lunch time clubs talking to young people and engaging with young people. So on the Wednesday i applied to go on this gap year. When i got home on the Friday i received an email saying i had an interview on the following Tuesday in Burnley. (Everything was happening so quick) so i went to the interview and it went really really well, the following Friday i received another email saying they would like to accept me into the Pais project which starts the following Tuesday, so within 3 weeks of me applying i had an interview, been accepted and starting my gap year. hence why it was a shock to most people when the news came out that i was leaving.
So what first? well i'm off today (Tuesday 30th August) to Burnley for two weeks of training, then i am home for a few days then on Sunday 18th i officially start my year out. Things have gone so quick that I'm not to nervous about it all just exited so is awesome
Some prayer points
1) i met my team and who i will be staying with this year this week so just prayer that i will be OK with them all and we will all get on well and that we will all gel nicely.
2) that i will be able to raise the rest of the £100 i need a month for personal expenses
