Discipleship Day in Carlton

Despite the overnight snow, I set out early for the Discipleship Day for the Nottingham (East) circuit which was help at Gedling Road, Carlton. At around 9.30 Paul and I were discussing whether to cancel it but by 10am a good crowd had turned up. In the end over 30 people attended. The spirit in the meeting was excellent. They were enthusiastic about the day and engaged well. Sharon Glasspool who was on the projector was really complementary and said at the end that she loved hearing me speak. Robert Forster didn't make it and in the end I left his material out so that we could finish promptly at 2pm. I was on good form and had a good rapport with the attendees and Paul and Tom.

The important thing now is presenting it well next Sunday at Arnold. We decided on Thursday at the steward's meeting to entitle the project 'Focus' and I prepared a photo to give thrust to the name - a picture of a bee on a flower with an out of focus red car in the background. Tis was taken last year in Divonne Les Bains.

Here is the photo I used to talk about FOCUS

When I got home we nipped up to Wheatcrofts for a drink and a chat. We relaxed in the evening. However, I exchanged emails with Paul to help design the leaflet for the project.
