Week at a Glance

Alright...so it's more like 8 or 9 days, but you get the picture. I just wanted you to see what kinds of things go on in a week(ish) for me in England. It's hard to say what it is exactly that I do because besides the basics (school, church, clubs) it's always changing a bit. I thought seeing it might be more helpful than me trying to explain...enjoy! I sure do :)

Making "fruit" for our vine during our Sunday school lesson.

Bishop Nick came to St. Wilfrid's. We helped with tea and biscuits.

I assisted during a science lesson at school.

Kaihle and I listening intently to our guide at an old monastery ruin Angie and Malcolm took us to.

I oversaw a writing lesson during SAT's week.

I also got the opportunity to lead an art lesson for a relaxing afternoon after testing.

Playing a math game during a lesson with one of the little girls (I think she won).

My big project!!! - planning an art session to make Olympic torches -it was a success!

See?...definitely a success!

Practicing with the kids for their musical - the songs are quite catchy.

In charge of another group of students for math during SAT's.

And these pictures still don't include everything.....I haven't included pictures from when we play games with a group of elderly (but definitely still feisty) Methodist on Thursdays, youth group on Friday night, Compline on Wednesdays, Thursday supper with the Anglicans, choir on Monday with a group of Methodist woman (our singing raises money :) ), the occasional after school project or field trip I tag along on for my school or the other odds and ends either church asks us to help with. We do quite a lot here in Bradford both as part of service and fellowship. It is all stuff I am really going to miss when I come home. Luckily, I live in a wonderful town and church community where I can continue many of these things, just in different ways.
