Doorway To Dreams

A couple of weeks ago Daniel came home with a slip from school saying that he needed to have an immunisation shot for Chicken pox if he was to continue attending school. So off we went to get him a shot. When we left the clinic he had 4 puncture marks in his arms - and none of them from a Chicken pox immunisation. He had to have a rabies booster, Hep A, Hep B and something else I don't remember. He was very brave and didn't even flinch as four times, 1 inch of needle disappeared into his arm!

When we came out of the clinic, Ali and I saw this door and thought it looked cool. Very Mexican style. (Of course, it didn't look exactly like this. I've taken the liberty to experiment!)

Riverview OC Has Kicked Off


Dusk off Newport Pier. Nice!
Took this when Gavin Eva was visiting us
on the weekend of the Riverview OC launch.
(Check out his version of things at El Rancho Relaxo)

This is the mailer postcard that went out to around 20,000 homes in a 2-mile radius of the Cinemas where we meet. We had several people turn up to church last Sunday because of it (even though it was also Daylight Savings changeover and we had to get up an hour earlier!)

Phil Wickham Wocks!


We were able to go and see Phil Wickham live last Saturday night at The Flock. Very, very cool! This guy has an amazing heart, an amazing voice and great songs. He's a real worshiper and a passionate singer.

I've been a fan for a while and have played the CD many times over at home and in the car, however Ali was taken by surprise. She said it was really fresh and she had an incredible worship experience. She was also moved by his honesty and ability to paint great word pictures.

Unfortunately this picture is not from the other night. It was held in a small church building, but jammed full of about 250 young people.

How Could You Not Want To Marry This?!


Huge congratulations to Boof & Bridget who just got engaged! Wooohooo!
I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say "Onya Boof! We are very happy for you. May the road ahead be wonderful (and littered with Booflets)!"
