Friday 24th February, 7.30pm – 9pm

St. Peter’s CofE School in Exeter

With guest speaker, Rachel Gardner from the Romance Academy.

Romance Academy is a revolutionary relationships project that tackles teen pregnancy and underage sex head on.

They address the underlying causes of risky youth behaviour such as, poor self-esteem, low aspirations and lack of positive family/community life by promoting the value of stable relationships through our unique 14-week intervention project. The aim is to give young people the tools to make intelligent choices around sex and relationships.

Romance Academy was co-founded by Youth Worker, Rachel Gardner after appearing in the 2005 BBC documentary, No Sex Please We’re Teenagers. Their small but magnificent team have since been working hard to ensure that the programmes success did not stop at the original twelve teenagers.

FNX will have the usual mix of live band, interaction, games and much more!

The latest underground news from Uplyme Church…

• Despite what you way hear on the street Uplyme Church finances are in pretty good shape.  We’ve made some cuts in some areas but overall giving is up.  We have some reserves for a rainy day and we are currently using these reserves.

• Despite a small deficit in our budget we have decided to partner with our Tearfund Zambia project.  We hope to raise £10,000 per year for those that have no water or sanitation.  In the first six months of this year we raised £6750 towards this goal.  Only £3250 to go before June 2012.  I think it is great that we are putting the poor first and I’m sure God will honour our commitment to this project.  If you would like to help please contact Russell or Morag Kingsbury on 443947 or via the contact form.

• The PCC have decided that in April we will reconstitute our PCC around our Mission and we will be looking for people to fill more specific roles.  This year, Nikki Griffiths, Alex Tulji, Mark Trafford, and Kate Eaton will be coming off PCC as their term has ended.  We sadly lost Terry Daly last year and Robin Hodges’ term as Deanery Synod rep also comes to an end.

• Gavin starts his partial sabbatical to continue his work on The Beatbox Bible and we are grateful for Judith Abbot who is stepping in to help with the mission and ministry of the church.  Judith’s first Sunday with us is this Sunday so please give her lots of verbal hugs!
