We kicked off this half term with a much-needed, spiritual retreat at our school Sports centre, out in the countryside. It was a valuable day about "La Vida que vale" (The life that counts.)
Prayers were answered and, after a weekend with torrential rain, the weather was perfect for us on Monday.
We enjoyed a day of talks from Bishop Greg Venables. He is well-known and loved by staff in St. Andrew's. He taught here many years ago and went on to be the school director. Later he became the Bishop of the Southern Cone, leading us from Buenos Aires.
The day gave plenty of time for chat and reflection together
and we enjoyed a superb barbecued lunch.
We also had fun, with comedian, pastor Ronnie.
There was "time out" for games for the energetic.
and rest for the less energetic.
Finally Bishop Greg was presented with a Paraguayan Flask and Guampa for drinking terere.
