Bradford, Yorkshire; God's Own County

Phil & Faith Lewis:
My hosts in Heaton
Well,I said that loads has been happening for the last six months. Just to start with, I am currently in Bradford, West Yorkshire; so am staying with God. Well, they say Yorkshire is God's own home or is where God lives, cos of it's beauty and lovely natural and unnatural cites.
Anyway, I moved from Liverpool to Bradford on the 14th of January 2009 to start my placement with Andy Milne and the Sorted Group. I first stayed in a place called Heaton, and my 'house' was right opposite the Yorkshire rippers house. If you don't know what am talking about, the Yorkshire ripper is a man who killed about 13 women in his garage about 20 years ago. Anyway, you can imagine what is likely to be happening in the area; ghosts screaming or laughing around,maybe at night!!! Scary!! Oh nah, I stayed their for two months, but never heard anything unusual really.

I would commute daily from Heaton to Idle where Sorted is run from and where most of the Sorted projects are. I used two busses daily. The first day I went home alone, I got lost and took about an hour and a half wandering in the neighbourhood looking for 9 Garden Lane, which was just a few metres from where I got off the bus. (It made remember of the Israelites in the wilderness for 40 years, while the land was just a few miles away from them). It was really cold and this lad made me get lost even more by sending me to the opposite direction. I called a taxi and it took ages, so I decided to just continue walking and finally I found this old man who knew where I was looking for. The old are really wise and they are gold.

At Heaton, I lived with a really nice family of four, so I became the third, and a black for that matter, a man of his own. Hehehe. Phil, Faith, Tim and Naomi. Wonderful family. Am nolonger in Heaton, I moved again. I once heard a sermon from a guy called Craig, who said that a God's servant is not meant to be settling, cos God is always on the move and at work, and He can send you anywhere anytime. So, am moving, still moving, am currently living with another family in Swain House area.

Hey Guys, hope you are all well.
Well, it's taken ages before I updated this blog. A lot of stuff has been happening really and soon i'll be filling you in with what I have been upto; from my visit to St. James Palace, to my progress at Sorted, to my confusions and worries and to my conversation with God. Lots has happened this year as I said before and you gonna get loads of stuff that God is doing in my life and you gonna get encouraged I believed.
Keep it in here for all these news. Thanks for being my prayer partner, I appreciate very much.
We are still in this walk to see our generation turn to God and having a strong link with the King of kings and The Lord of lords.

I love you all.
