Yay! Will edit my form and send it off later.

How are you doing anyway, my lovely? What plans for next year? :hugs:

Eurgh, I've been asked this so much over the last couple of days. Nope, no ideas. Would absolutely love to go to ESM (Emmanuel School of Mission), but it costs a lot of money. Prayers for the money to turn up if it's what I'm meant to do would be awesome.

Got a phonecall from one of my interviewers from the BBC :eek: Completely unexpected. Gave very detailed feedback and encouraged me to apply again next year. That's made me feel a bit better about the whole thing. Apparently I was "very good" but there were some outstanding applicants :yes:

That's really cool :h:

And wrt the SPEC application, I'd just send it off. Don't worry too much about discerning right now, that can come later, and is a process you can go through with SPEC too.

Spirit in the City was absolutely amazing!
So much fun, so much love, so much God.

Def will pray about this. Sorry for asking annoying questions. I know it can be a pain when people ask questions like that, when you don't have the answer :colondollar:

An interesting read. I shamefully hadn't heard of some of these women before :colondollar:

Hope everyone is well. I've amended my form for SPEC. Just sitting on it for a day or two whilst I pray/discern, then am going to send it and hope for the best! :woo:


thankyou, I'd hardly heard of any of them either haven't finished reading it yet:smile:

Just returning from a two day Chaplaincy "holiday" to Scarborough. Eight of us have had fantastic time :smile:

This was posted from The Student Room's Android App on my HTC Wildfire


sounds good:smile: I'd love to go to that Invocations thing mentioned a few weeks ago but i think it would be too far for a weekend.

I'd love to go to this too my mum wouldn't want me to go on my own and I don't think I'll take well to camping

It's busier than the Anglican Society:biggrin::tongue:

Today in Psychology (what is science?)...

Teacher: The US is more religious than we are over here, especially in the Southern States.

Student: yeah, aren't the Southern States like further behind than the rest of America?

I can't remember what the teacher said,


Why didn't I say anything!:frown:

:ditto: this :yep:
Especially difficult to stand up to people you have to spend a lot of time with. It's much easier to stand up for your faith to people who you're never going to have to see again :colondollar:

So true. That's why Dumbledore gave 10 points to Neville Longbottom, after all! :biggrin:

Please pray and give thanks to God for the work and service of my local hospital chaplain, a priest who is retiring because of ill health.

Thanks be to God for this priest's good work and service to your community! :woo: :jebus: :party: It must be a sad loss for you all, and the NHS too. I pray for his health problems and hope they are not too serious :yes:

I shared this over on the X Soc thread but forgot to do so here: please praise the Lord for the fact that my younger sister passed all her 4th year Finals. Tomorrow she begins her fifth and final year as a medical student! :eek3: :awesome: :woo:
