The main purpose in starting this blog is to keep you informed of a new challenge in the Atthill household. In November 2011 Sue received confirmation that she has FSHD which is a form of muscular dystrophy. Again we are privileged to be surrounded by friends and family that want to know how things are and how Sue is coping; well this is for you so that we can update you more regularly.We’ve called this blog “Atthill Life” as from time to time we will give you updates on the rest of the family as well.

Youth Weekend Away

We have just returned from an amazing weekend at Letton Hall - along with 130 other young people and leaders from our family of churches within Norfolk.  The theme for the weekend was 'Seek First His Kingdom' and we had some superb encounters with God during the different meetings.  There were also seminars which included relationships, friends, life decisions, power, loneliness and advancing the kingdom. 

Peter was overseeing the meetings for years 7 to 9's, led the 'Advancing the Kingdom' seminar and together we were on the panel for the 'Kingdom Relationships' seminar.

The weather was fantastic and we spent Saturday morning playing team games outdoors and wizzing around Letton Hall's go-kart track.  As team leader I was keen to join in and was still able to do some activities but a little frustrated at not being able to do others. I also discovered that loose gravel (between venues) is not good for walking on when you have little control over your foot/leg muscles and slipped over a couple of times! 

It was a privilege to be able to speak into these young people's lives and encourage them in their walk with God.
