In
a weeks time we will have our new recruits conference. I will be
speaking to them on the Monday morning and I have decided to lead them
on Jeremiah chapter one the first ten verses and discuss the call of God
on their lives and how God called Jeremiah when he was young. I will
also be giving them background information as we are told that it was
during the reign of king Josiah and it was in his day the books of Moses
were found and Josiah repented. It also seems to me ( and I need to
check this) that the books of Moses were found by Jeremiahs father.

The postman and days off for illness
I had a chat with the postman last night. He was not all that well, but had to be in work as he had already had days off ill and if he had more off in a certain period then he would get a warning. This is post office policy. I can understand why they want to stop people cheating and taking time off, being paid for it and not be ill at all. However, it also tells me the they do not care about individuals who may indeed be ill and not taking time out to fully recover. Someone who is working while ill is going to take longer to get well and not necessarily be entirely useful. I am glad that I am not a postman. I know a man who was a postman who took early retirement. He once said that each meeting was yet another chance for the management to piss on them. He also said that it was a good job when he started but now he hated it.
For all our griping, at least in what I do we are broadly loved and valued in a way that is beyond the worlds comprehension.

Book signing yesterday
I was at Ds church in Aylesbury yesterday and after the morning meeting, I sold a few copies of my book and signed them. D was a bit disappointed as only her friends approached. However, I got photos out of it which D took and I hope that just one or two of them may be helpful to the publisher.
