Vicki, Lifzie and Karen ventured far and wide on Sunday - as far as Penrhiwceiber. After a lot of wrong turns, we finally found St Winifred's Church and entered (late) the latest Diocesan Youth Service. It was a great service and followed on rather well from what we've been studying in Youth Group.

Aiways willing to be fed, we joined everyone else up a very steep hill until we finally found the Church Hall and ate happily.
