1. Friends had looked out for a house for us, but nothing had been available within our budget and area.  Minutes before they began the heavy lifting, he had a call to say that a house he had seen and liked, but that had been a bit pricey had been agreed for us. 
The landlord had come down on the price and they could put our furniture straight into it.  Those of you who've moved house yourselves, will appreciate how good that was.  The timing was perfect. Chris will stay on in Nepal and we'll join him shortly.  We're excited to get back, though sad to leave everyone in the UK again. Whilst it was good news for us, not all the INF visas were approved, so our friends and colleagues continue to wait and we pray for them and for wisdom in the negotiations that Chris will be involved in. THANK YOU for your prayers and encouragement, Debbie and Chris

Potential new church venue
We have been exploring the possibility of other Sunday morning venues around Chapel Allerton as we are becoming more restricted for space in the primary school.  The most promising option is the Potternewton Centre, on Scott Hall Road (diagonally opposite Scott Hall Leisure Centre). The Centre is a day care facility during the week and is in the process of being refurbished with a large meeting hall, a kitchen and a number of classrooms which would work well for our Children's work. Please consider and pray about this as a potential new church venue.
Set up in November - Lis Farquhar
Set up in December – Dave Herringshaw
Please note that we are not allowed to use the equipment in the lower playground and that any children playing there must be supervised by an adult.
Thank you!

Please James Bell (site manager) at stating your availability, a contact phone number and your doughnut preferences.
Update From the Drews
We heard on Tuesday that our visas have finally been approved by the Nepali Government, so we are free to return and work. Just a week ago we had neither a house nor visa; now we have both.  Thank you God. Chris actually returned to Nepal last week on our remaining 2 weeks of tourist visa for 2016 to pack up our house (the landlord needs it back), to store our stuff and attend meetings about the future direction for INF.  Many friends helped him pack and move stuff.  Last Saturday they moved our personal belongings and Sunday was the big furniture moving day.
