Everyone's worst fears have come true - I now have editorial access to the website! Unless Alex changes the password... 

The first improvement that's been made is new resources. There's no longer just Newday stuff - we're posting our own Bible studies too (in note form, not MP3). There will obviously only be one per month, with the possibility of Les doing notes for Dig Deeper too, so it could be 'bi-monthly'!!

Check the resources section. We will be looking to add more resources in time - we're thinking of the Together Weekend, Crops...isn't it exciting! 
 
Photos Update 09/13/2009
 
Probably our biggest update so far is the photos section of our website, with new photos, new navigation, new design and new features! OooooOooooh! "Well, what are these new things?!", I hear you cry. I'll answer that question right now.
New photos - We've got new photos from both last year's Newday and this year's Newday, and there's more on the way! "Even more?!". YES.
New navigation - The navigation has been tidied up somewhat, with galleries being grouped into their own sections. This should hopefully mean you find your way around much more easily!
New design- Our hosts Weebly announced new design features to all photo galleries, which was nice! Firstly, you can easily go from photo to photo with the introduction of new buttons when the photos are enlarged. Secondly, the photo galleries should look much more appealing as they are now all cropped to be the same size! Consistency is here!
New features - As well as those new features, all photo galleries now have links at the foot of each page so you can easily share and link to any set of photos.

"That all well and good, but we still can't comment on them". Yeah, sorry, there's nothing I can do!

Update - Latest 09/13/2009
 
I know I said the site should be ready by the 13th, and it is, kind of. There are still updates being made; however, the Photos section has had a big revamp, all dates have been updated on the Calendar and you might notice there's a new Header image (that's kind of still being worked on as well). We're continuing to update, and you can of course continue to look around! During the update page load errors are a twiddling possibility.

Update! 09/08/2009
 
The youth website is currently undergoing a post-summer update with all the latest dates, event news, photos and others bits and bobs. The site should be all ready by this Sunday (13th).

Oh, and any suggestions will of course be appreciated so let me know!

Thanks

Prayer Bulletin 06/25/2009
 

Due to the cancellation of last Friday's Bible Study there was no prayer bulletin this week.
It should be continuing from this coming Sunday.

 
 

  • Newday payments are rolling into Nat, but if you haven't paid or owe an instalment then please get it in to Nat as soon as possible!
  • There's a very good reason for getting these payments in - because you do not want to miss out on Newday 2009! Seminar suggestions are now on the Newday website (voting has now closed unfortunately), and there's loads of great ones to look forward to! So head over to the website and have a look at what you can expect this Summer!
  • Social photos from last Friday should be online within a couple of days
  • It's getting nice and summery at long last, so if you're planning a youth BBQ or another sort of outing then let us know! Contact us via the website or speak to a leader and we can let all of the youth know for you, and we can all get together and have a good ol' time!

 
 

Photos from last week's Crossing are now online here. You can check out all previous Crossing photo galleries as well as photos from other events in the Photos section!

 
 

There is no prayer bulletin this week as it was The Crossing on Friday and it's half-term this week. The weekly bulletins should resume from next Sunday.

Alex

 
 

The prayer bulletin is set to be sent out early this week. It will be sent out by Wednesday at the latest.
Apologies over the lateness of this,

Alex

Newday Payments! 05/01/2009
 

Newday is now just 3 months way! The deadline for paying your deposit (if you haven't already) is just 2 days away! Yes, deposits need to be in by this Sunday please and need to be paid to Nat Smyth. If you know you'll have any problems with doing this or need to talk to Nat about anything pay-related or Newday related for that matter, then please contact her via the Leaders page! If you are a bit hesistant to give away your money for Newday or your parents need convincing, check this out.
