Busy days

We seem to be going non stop right now, but I think we're beginning to catch up with ourselves now.

We celebrated Grandpa and Grandma Ungers 60th wedding anniversary on Sunday and had a program consisting of different people telling stories about Grandma & Grandpa, the grandchildren (including us) singing the doxology and 'Here I am to worship', the children singing some hymns, and then 'faspa' or afternoon tea I guess we (the english) would say, so bread buns, sandwich meat, cheese. It was really nice, especially seeing family who live further away.

Unfortunately I had to leave as soon as we had finished eating to go to the Pumpkin Smash, which is organised by YFC and supporting churches. They use the local indoor football centre, which has 4 pitches. We used 3 of those pitches/halls for the pumpkin smash. We had a worship hall, and 2 fun halls. There was a battle of the bands, a huge jousting tower (like off Gladiators), go carts, dance mat competitions, huge inflatables, car smash (taking a sledge hammer to a knackered old car), and pumpkin smash (sledgehammer again).

The whole eveing was really fun. Dan King & Tim Redekopp DJ'ed during worship, there was a word station, art station, all to be utilised during the worship, it was awesome!
