Training update!
Tuesday, October 31st, 2006
Term is almost six weeks old now so this is a brief update about college life for those that are interested! One of our biggest struggles is not missing you all too much so it’s really good to have a chance to tell you our news and thanks to all who do come here to read our posts and look at our photos.
My studies are going very well. This term I am taking classes in church history, ethics, mission and christology (the study of Jesus) as well as ‘Life and Service’ which is a kind of catch-all course for various practical and pastoral things. I have four essays due for the end of term… crikey! So the work is piling up, the books to read are just getting more and more of a mountain on my desk and there is lots to do and it’s proving tough to keep up, especially with the demands of being a dad and trying to help Kerry look after Nathanael and Bethya.
With Nathanael just over a month old now, the camera has been in overdrive taking photos of everyone and everything. As I sat and downloaded them all tonight, I thought I’d share some of the best ones with you all! 
If you will excuse the geeky nature of this post, I am writing with a purpose in mind so bear with me and I may do you a favour! One of the things that makes me feel guilty now and again is the fact I am rubbish at taking back-ups of my computer hard drive. I know I should do it, I know it’s pretty important but it just gets lost sometimes in the bigger scheme and besides it’s a hassle.
