london weekend
19th-21st may 2006, londonok, so it wasn't an mayc event at all but we had no other page for it.
9 young people and 4 leaders took a relaxing trip down to london for the weekend (with many thanks to dave for all his driving). travelling by minibus, train and tube we stayed at the lantern arts centre attached to raynes park methodist church and share Jesus international. two very comfy floors meant a surprisingly restful night for all, saturday dinner was taken off leicester square (riot police and all!) and the sonorous strains of sat nav yoda's "left you must turn, right you must turn" and "congestion charging, you must pay!" kept us all amused for the long journeys. some amazing time was spent with God and everybody had an amazing, challenging and exciting time.
