This
month’s meeting
took place on Saturday 24th January and it was a little different to our
usual meetings. Recently, it was Tom Loveday’s birthday (youth wing
coordinator) and as a result all the youth came together to do a surprise
birthday for him. It was quite important for us to do this as Tom has done a
lot for us as the youth and therefore the small celebration of his birthday was
a means to say thank you.
Balloons
were blown, the room
was decorated and the lights were switched off. Everyone was waiting in great
anticipation for Tom’s arrival. As he came in through the double doors, the youth
shouted “SURPRISE!”

| The big moment! |
The
youth brought a huge variety of food such as samosas, crisps, rolls etc. A
delicious cake was also brought in by a youth member to celebrate the day. We
hope Tom liked the surprise!
In our
January meeting a group of youth members presented their spiritual presentation
on “Ego”. This was a very interesting presentation delivered by the group as it
is an aspect in life which is relatable to everyone. We also did icebreakers
which consisted of everyone sharing their thoughts on the idea of ego and telling each
other of situations where their ego took advantage. A lot was
learnt from their presentation about the ways to control your ego and how to
prevent your ego from hindering your success.
