A long but fab weekend!

Hey all,
Havent blogged for a couple of days so thought i'd do it now!
Just come back from a very long, but equally brilliant weekend. I have been at Youthwork The Conference, working on the stewarding team.
I had to get over alot of fears during the weekend, i am a fairly out going person, and have stewarded before, but never like this!
I had to record events (yes me, Chloe Purchase - doing tech stuff....) mesed it up a couple of times, but you should have seen me today....i was well good at it! haha
Loved clicking people in and out venues, but cant say i wanted to keep the high vis jackets! lol

Had really good conversations with many different people, so big leaders of churches and charities, but also the delegates. It felt such an honour to be able to serve God in this way, and to serve his people (and a massive power surge when we had to evacuate the building late at night!!)

It has become even more clear to me, that God wants me to do Youth and Childrens work, i dont know in what form yet, but i'm really excited to be exploring that in the near future.
Please can you pray for me, that i put my trust in God, and his plan for me life.
I tend to want to be in control alot of the time (ok, most of the time!) and i really need to learn how to hand things over to God, and let him take more control in my life.
Which will be hard, but i think as soon as i can grasp that, i will see my life massively change.

Whilst your praying! I havent really slept much this weekend, and worked long, and late shifts. Seem to have a manic week coming up, including a 5.30am start in the morning. So please pray that i keep positive, and get all the things done that are creeping their way on to my lists!

Sorry for any typo's in this! feel shattered and now heading to bed! but wanted to update people!

Take care,
Chlo x
