EAB has had people doing sponsored marathons, runs and walks, but I had never even heard of a sponsored toddle! Well this is what the Great Lumley evangelical church is organizing for June 26th when the children from their 'Tiny Church' will be doing a sponsored toddle round the football pitch in the local park. Their aim is to raise funds to buy a hair sheep for a poor family through the EAB 4-Legs project. The idea was inspired by an article in the latest edition of EAB InTouch magazine. Great Lumley is a lovely village in the northeast of England.
Yesterday morning I went for another nice 3 km walk at Green Pastures and saw lots of wildlife such as a Large Teiu Lizard and a Wild Tortoise. I saw and heard the following birds: Great Antshrike, Picazuro Pigeon, Greater Ani, Sooty-fronted Spinetail, Roadside Hawk, Southern Lapwing, Common Gallinule, Chalk-browed Mockingbird & Pale Baywing. There was also on show a beautiful display of wild native flowers. Such walks are envigorating, good exercise and inspiring.
Yesterday afternoon I took part online in the EAB Board of Trustees meeting held at West Wellow in England. It was a very good and productive meeting which confirmed the next EAB AGM for Saturday, October 19th at 6 pm (fellowship tea) and 7 pm (celebration service) at Lighthouse Community Church, Hardley, Southampton.
