Rach's Diary - What a Picture

30 Mar 2017

Whenever I get asked what I do at work, I always say that every day is different. This is still the case. I've recently been a bit more grounded in Manchester, but my job still has a great variety to it.

Last Thursday SCM Manchester had a social evening so we ate pizza and played a card...

Rach's Diary - Called to be and beyond

22 Mar 2017

Last time I blogged I was one day away from the biggest weekend I've had with SCM, 'Called to be...' the Student Gathering in Manchester. You can read how we summed it up, or how...

Rach's Diary - To Liverpool and back again

9 Mar 2017

You may remember that last week I'd been to Liverpool on Monday. I continued in that fashion with a trip there on Wednesday evening too, travelling from Manchester via Birmingham to vist the SCM office. Wednesday's visit was to join St Bride's Church for their student...

Rach's Diary - pancakes in the snow

28 Feb 2017

Last Thursday Storm Doris arrived in the UK. This meant that my plans for Ruth W (SCM's Faith in Action Worker) to visit SCM Manchester were scuppered as Ruth was stuck in Birmingham. We ended up cancelling the whole evening, but earlier in the day I did manage to get to Didsbury to meet with...

Rach's Diary - Celebrating Student Sunday

20 Feb 2017

Six months ago I'd never heard of the Universal Day of Prayer for Students, but this past Sunday I got to spend the day exploring Jesus and Paul with students in Lancaster. We used the beautiful liturgy from the Student Sunday resource pack, gave out the prayer cards and explored how we tackle...

Rach's Diary - 300 Trains and Counting

27 Jan 2017

In previous years I've challenged myself to do things as part of a new years resolution. This year I haven't found the right challenge yet. It's a good job though that it wasn't to blog more - I know some of you struggled to keep up with all the blogging I did last term! But, we've reached the...

Rach's Diary - first week back

10 Jan 2017

I've been back at work for a whole week after my Christmas break. It's been a full on first week, and I've spent much of it confused about which day of the week it is.

Tuesday started in Birmingham which was usual, though this term I'll be doing Wednesdays in Birmingham on a regular...

Rach's Diary - Christmas Parties

21 Dec 2016

So here we are, I've reached my last day with SCM in 2016. I have no idea where the last 4 months have gone. I do know that December had just 45 trains, 7 trams, 2 buses and 1 taxi. Taking my train total for these four months to 255!

It's been strange this year, for the past three years I...

Rach's Diary - It's beginning to look a lot like advent

16 Dec 2016

The weekend before last I had 3 blogs published in 4 days. I therefore thought you might have read enough from me for a while so have waited 9 whole days before writing another one. This does mean I have almost two weeks of adventures to tell you about.
