I'm concentrating on Greenbelt cos I love it, whereas going back to school, even after a weekend, let alone 5 weeks (we had a longer holiday last Christmas, so we haven't had 6 weeks this summer. That's what I was told anyway!) is something I find difficult. I'm ok once I'm there and am able to just get on with the job.
I'm looking forward to greenbelt very much (although I'm still not convinced by the weather. Hope and pray, I suppose). John Bell from the Iona Community is going to be there and he's a good speaker and composer. Rob Bell, the author of the Nooma bible study resources, will be there, but you have to be at his talks at least 3 hours before hand to guarantee getting in, so I don't know if we'll see him. Bob Holman did a talk, at a previous Greenebelt, that I've got on my MP3 player about youth work, so I'll check out what he's saying. Idlewild are playing the mainstage during the weekend so we'll definitely be seeing them. There's also loads of worship going on. Me and mum have been talking about going to Soul Space in the Grandstand, every year we've gone. So far we haven't got there! I think its contemplative worship, which I love, so that's cool. We'll go to the Taize service as well, of course! Gotta be done! Definitely looking forward to it, and of course I'll be blogging about it when I return home! :)
