09 OCTOBER
A quieter week on the roads and in the office with school holidays and a few staff taking
some well deserved days off for serving alongside the volunteers at conference last
week.
Come along to a location near you this Sunday for an inspiring message, then spend
some time afterwards over a coffee catching up with friends or making new friends.

Spotlight on Family
SPOTLIGHT ON FAMILY
Take the moments. Life is busy, and even with the best of intentions it can be hard to stay connected with our
tweens and teens as their world begins to separate from ours. There might be fewer opportunities to talk and see
each other, or less shared experiences to draw on as you try to keep your relationship strong.
Remember that even the small moments can be meaningful. Take any opportunity to share a sideways hug, a
silly joke, or even a chance to sit quietly together. By all means be available for deep conversations when they're
required, but it's good to know that there are lots of simple ways to express
"I enjoy being with you".
