The YWAM York 2011 DTS is going well, we’re seeing a lot of growth in the staff and trainees alike.
The DTS house is becoming a bit hub for the local children (6-11) – they’re bored most of the time so we bake, play football, paint, garden, listen etc. They keep coming a-knockin so we must be doing something right, they actually called us ‘the sunshine house, because it’s always sunny here’ – which obviously means they see Jesus here, which is awesome!
It’s just great that this is a lifestyle thing, they’re our neighbours and we do life with them, out of a genuine love for them as people.
We’ll be going on outreach in a few months but we hope to include the neighbourhood in that by telling them where we’re going, maybe practicing some games and dramas with them, baking cookies to raise support etc, so hopefully they won’t feel we’ve just left them and hopefully they’ll get exited with us!
