Pictures from Day One

Prep and VBS Day One

The England Team arrived and along with the numerous volunteers from Little Stukely, Alconbury Baptist, and RAF Alconbury Chapel the church was decorated and readied for Artic Edge.

The first day of Artic Edge arrived and approximately 60 preschool to 6th grade children came.
It was a flurry of activity and the night went extremely well. This is a great group of kids and volunteers, adults and well as lots of teenagers. The kids are eager to learn and have fun. The adults/teen leaders were having as much fun as the children. There is such a cooperative spirit and unity among everyone. God has definitely blessed this joint effort to get to know Jesus and renew our spirits.

Last night the presence of Jesus was so real drawing the children to the truth of him, igniting their their spirit and passion. It was so amazing and humbling that we are a part of this effort.

PRAYER SUPPORT

Stukeley Update July 21, 2007

This is Stukeley calling. Just a quick update for your prayer support.

We have a terrific spirit of cooperation with the Independent Baptist Church and the Air Force Chapel as we prepare to do VBS. It is truly encouraging to see the willingness to work and the helpful attitude as we iron out the last minute details. We are all really pumped about the prospect and we will be handing out information at 4 local schools as they dismiss from classes this week,

A while back I told you that we were praying about what to do with my bum knee. We were praying that the surgery could be done at the Lakenheath AF Hospital and that the surgery could just do a repair type job instead of a total knee replacement and that the problem could be fixed. Well that pray has been answered in the positive. I will have arthroscopic surgery on the 23rd of August to remove the tears in the cartilage and flush out any derby. The surgery will be done at the Lakenheath AF Hospital. It will be an outpatient procedure done under local anesthesia and will require only two weeks of rehab.

For the next 6 weeks make theses items a priority in your prayers:
That we will have many unchurched kids in the VBS/Holiday Bible Club even 29 July- 3 August
That we will see life changes in the children
That parents will show an interest in spiritual things.
That the surgery on Paul’s knee will go well and solve the problem.

Serving together,
Paul and Jepye of the Stukeleys
