Family Worker Ramblings

​Change

There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens.  Ecclesiastes 3:1

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.    Hebrews 13:8

Another year begins and for some of you change may have already happened - either instigated by you or by others. We say how a year flies by, but on the other hand sometimes a day can seem like an eternity. What chances would you like to happen this year? Is God prompting you to change or do something different? Will you embrace the opportunities that come your way? Will you spend more time talking to God?

One of the biggest changes for me last year was travelling alone on the train, as I was involved in planning the adult activities during the 3Generate weekend that happened in November. I dared to get involved and by doing that I grew in confidence and made new friendships. Using technology - I have to confess, my knowledge of computers and all things technical has room to improve this year! The websites below were on a leaflet given to the adults who attended 3 Generate. Some you may find useful, either for yourself, your family or our church
as we learn more about God and Christianity this year.

www. YouTube.com/3Generate TV: watch what the young people at 3 Generate talked about.
