SLC 2008

Here are the motley crew from SLC 2008 (most of them anyway!). From the 17th - 23rd November I was at my second student conference of the year with TSCF. I am still learning my way with being involved in organising these events but by God's grace things ran smoothly!
It was a great opportunity for me to build on relationships I had made with students at mid year conference in June and also to meet lots of new students. It was a very tiring week full of har work but also lots of fun as I worked with collegues I don't often get to work with and students who I rarely get to mix with.
I tried to do my work while students were in their sessions and seminars which enabled me to spend some of the free time in the afternoons with students, playing sport, dancing and generally getting to know them better. It was an exciting end to the week when one of the students gave his life to Christ. What a privilage it was to witness the power of God in his life.
I had been told that historically SLC has always had bad weather so I was prepared with lots of warm clothes but as it turned out, we had amazing weather every day and I now know that sun block is an essential addition to the first aid kit!
I am enjoying some time off this week, recovering from the hours put in during the conference but I am very thankful of the job I have.
