Youth in Action - May 2010
//CLICK HERE FOR PHOTO GALLERY \\
On a sunny
Saturday, twenty five young people, gave up
their afternoon to serve, bless and work
hard in the garden of Gabalfa Primary
School. Equipped with a lot of green paint,
brushes, plants and gardening tools, we set
off to bless the teachers and children of
the school by doing a major clean up in
their garden. The large group of young
people, painted the surrounding fence of the
garden (which was a big job in itself!)
picked up weeds, put a base down for a
greenhouse and moved the greenhouse, painted
furniture and overall, cleaned up the place
so that was a more friendly environment for
the children of the school. The might army
spent five hours of their afternoon giving
to our community and they had a good time in
the process...
"It was really good. I had a great time
blessing people!!!" Rachel Lowe
"We had a fantastic time blessing the
school, was a great opportunity" Josh
Sargent
"It was fun, with lots of great
fellowship" Ian Bishop
And the response from the teachers of
Gabalfa Primary School...
"We would like to give them as massive
THANK YOU from everyone at the school for
the magnificent work they did. As well as
painting the fence, they moved and tidied
our greenhouse for us, cleared all of the
rubbish from the garden, bought us some new
pots and even painted our bench and table,
they now look like new, and they even found
time to get us some hanging baskets. When we
took the children from gardening club into
the garden last night they were amazed at
the transformation." Gardening Club,
Gabalfa Primary School Website
The giving does not stop there!!! A few days
later a shed arrived, which the young people
of All Nations Church provided for the
school, and five faithful Leaders returned
back to the garden and spent another five
hours there putting the shed together to
bless the people of the school even more!
Thank you to all the young people and
leaders who gave up their Saturday to bless
Gabalfa Primary School and impact their
local community. Well done!
