I have just got in from my trip to Basingstoke and I should feel tired but I’m quite buzzing which could be something to do with the Red Bull which my body decided it needed as I drove past Fleet Services.

Today I have heard more dreams. It was great to spend some time with Luella, who is the Director of Basingstoke YFC, this afternoon and see how much progress she has made with her young people in such a short space of time and to hear some of her ideas. It was even more exciting to hear that she has not got a blueprint of a vision – by that I mean she wants to hear from others what they think, and hear the dreams of others already doing work, observe what God is doing and from that, with others, try to form some vision for a way ahead. A dream of seeing more and more people working together to reach the young people of Basingstoke.

This was excellent to hear and I look forward to seeing what happens.

In the evening I met with some other people to talk more about YFC in Basingstoke and about the role of trustees. This was a great meeting too with other people with dreams and a desire to work together.

Seems like Basingstoke has all the right ingredients for something exciting to happen.
