concert!

The concert last night was a great success! The performers were wonderful! We had Rosemary, Kirsten, the Peregrine recorder Orchestra, Time After Time-barbershop quartet, Kayleigh-anne Robert Fisher and Ed Beard (piano trio), Tash, tony and me. I had to do all the announcing because we could get nobody famous to do it!

About 40 people came, and we raised £283! I think they all enjoyed it, I know I did!



The days before the concert were fraught with dramas great and small, from running out of ink to almost over lapping an event at the church. But we got there! Thanks to all the performers, Christina for playing, the people who delivered leaflets, mum and Jenny for printing programs and leaflets, and everyone else who helped!



Next? . . . . . . . the bike ride! Aaaaaaa!

Fundraising Fundraising, Fundraising!

Just a quick update!

·         I have received a cheque for £100 which is fantastic!
·          Plans for the concert on 21st May continue, I now have 3 confirmed acts: Rosemary, Kirsten, and the Peregrine Recorder Orchestra. So things are looking up there!  
·         I have been asked to arrange another ‘awareness’ evening. So that will happen at the end of May or the end of June.
·         There are around 14 of us doing a sponsored bike ride on 11th June, 16 miles!!! (I am not the fittest person in the world, so this might well kill me! Or at least my legs will drop off! Lol) me and mum will be riding tandem.

So it’s a busy, busy time, but God is good, and things will work out for his purpose.

Romans 8:28 “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”
