Visit to Portsmouth and Deal


This week saw us travelling first to Portsmouth to see Daniel and Crystal, also Hannah and her Dan. Jonathan and Becky very kindly put us up once again (our beds are permanently kept made up I think!) and it is always a real blessing to spend time with these lovely friends who continue to serve God in all they do. I took Daniel for a paddle, in a kayak - not trousers rolled up in the sea Jonathan! Afterwards we were fed royally at Hannah's and Dan's new flat.

Lynn and I then travelled further east, staying the night in a b&b in Folkestone before attending the funeral of a dear friend and former colleague John Kelly. John sadly passed away recently after suffering from some sort of brain virus. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Wendy, Sam and Jade and all the family. Many friends and colleagues attended the funeral and it was good to see the support for John's family and to catch up with old friends.
