I’d just like to take this opportunity to provide you with an update college wise. I shared at the last Core Team meeting about a possible future partnership with the Chaplaincy Team and things have since progressed in this area at a rapid rate. I met with Naomi Nixon (Chaplain) on the Thursday before half term to talk some ideas through and by the end of that same meeting I came away with two chaplaincy t-shirts and a start date!
On Tuesday 23rd February I started the role of Assistant Chaplain. I will be paid by the college directly for the four hours a week I’ll be doing and these hours will be in addition to the 20 I’m already doing for the Bridge. Having said that though, when I’m working at the college I’ll still be firmly wearing my Bridge Youth Worker hat!
I know Tim has often said that God is a 3 mile an hour God, but my experience of Him at the moment is more like 10! It’s all good though and incredibly exciting. I’ll fill you in on the detail of exactly what being Assistant Chaplain is another time, but for now I’d really appreciate your prayers as I attempt to settle into this new role and find my feet.
Please do contact me if you’d like further info or have any questions about this.
