Summer seems a long way distant as we get ready to celebrate Jesus' birth again. However memories are strong in those that were affected by thw work of Extreme Rebuild in th Summer. Paul Drage of Southchurch writes about a surprise meeting with satsified customer, be encouraged...
I was just finishing my shopping in Sainsburys when I noticed a boy waving at me,I was thinking what to buy and then suddenly noticed he was still trying to get my attention. I didn't recongise him as a relation or a BB boy, then the penny dropped, Woodgrange Estate and the name process in my head started, I tried one name and it was correct, his mother smiled as we spoke, she seemed so pleased to meet someone of the team who had made her son happy during the summer holidays, she thanked me, I expressed my thoughts we may be back but then the boy started recalling his joyful memories of scoring the vital hit in a game.Seeing him again was worth it and the joy which the team led by Ros and Sonia created and the lasting happymemories in the children's minds. The final thought can be summed up in an old hymn To God be the Glory...
