Not really GRN news, but still very exciting to those involved in our family.
We welcomed 2 grandchildren into the world in Feb.

One on the 18th and the other on Glenys' birthday, the 22nd

Our second son Daniel and his wife, Shayna had a little girl on the 18th.

April and May will see us TRANTING to churches in NSW and VIC.

We start in Hamilton Vic then off to Gippsland.  As this will mainly be during the school holiday break, we will be bringing Nelita, her brother Trevon and our grandson Xander. Talk about madness!.

Our daughter-in-law is struggling with her new baby after having a c-section and some complications. We are taking the grandson so she can rest, and the grandson, Xander feel like he is a big person going on a big trip.

Trevon is 12, Nelita is 11 and Xander is 4.

Their faces show how happy they were in getting their photo done for this blog. They were not really mad, but not overly excited!





GRN Camp

The weekend of the 11,12,13 March saw us attending our first annual GRN camp at the Winmalee Christian Conference Centre.

The talks were based on prayer. We read, talked and did prayer for the week end. It was a good time to discuss and meditate on different aspects of prayer.

It was interesting that while a lot of answered prayer was discussed, it was also brought up about how to deal with prayer that does not go according to our preconceived ideas of what God is doing or about to do in our lives.

The pictures are here are from the WCCC web page, as I did not think to take some to put on the blog. Sorry!
