Ardgour 306 - Update 2

Good Afternoon everyone.
Here is the latest news from Graeme's camp at Ardgour. After a horrendous first night, prayers have been answered and last night was much better for sleeping. Also the day's activities probably helped towards this inasmuch as they were tiring (canoeing, gorge walking and mountain biking over Ben Nevis way), that the 'proper' programme of daytime activities had kicked in and that the evening programme including Time Out had been satisfactory.
Today, the weather is still a bit miserable and the groups are back at gorge walking and canoeing although 2 girls are playing the refusniksgame. Shannon and Louise are part of Kirsty's Adventure programe project which she has set up in assocaition with the social worker - and this is Shannon's second event when she has not wanted to take part. Graeme feels that Lousie is easily led so they are both sitting out the morning activities and hopefully will want to get back for the rest of the programme - even if out of sheer boredom / loneliness away from the other girls!
The other hiccup is that they haven't found a bike small enough for one of the lads!!
Also one of the team, Linzi from Lenzie is feeling anxious and we would value your prayers for her to realise how valued she is as a person and how she can take part in some of the activities alongside the young people. Her friend Kenny who is on the team is doing well.
This evening Chad is going up to stay for 12 hours to take photos and make a video for our future use. The groups are planning to spend Thursday as an 'own choice' expeduition day with kayaking in the local area or mountain biking at Rannoch Moor. Please pray for Chad's safe travel and a successful trip. He returns for a Thursday evening meeting with me and Doug , our IT support.

Please cointinue to pray for Graeme and Chris leading the team, that GOD will strengthen them in these next demanding days and they will press on with patience and determination, not with gritted teeth but with JOY! Pray for the young people that as they develop good relationships with the team and with each other , that the grace of our LORD Jesus will permeate their lives, understanding and vision and they will be able to respond positively to every message - word and action - to make this an excellent week for all.
