General thoughts on today
A Sociable Sunday
It’s been a good, sociable day, starting with the Christmas service at The Bridge Saundersfoot. It still feels surreal that Christmas is only a few days away! Afterward, we headed to Tenby for some shopping, a walk, and a pint at Tenby House.
The church service was a lovely surprise—super busy, with the hall full and extra chairs needed. It’s so encouraging to see it grow. I enjoyed reconnecting with familiar faces and catching up on life, particularly sharing updates on our move. I also metChris Caine, whom John Edmonds had mentioned earlier. Chris recently moved to the area too, attends youth club with his son Noah, and is settling in at The Bridge. He’s a petrolhead and decorator—seems like a nice guy. This reminds me I should start adding private notes about people, especially key details, to help track connections.
After church, we headed to Tenby, bumped into Steph’s mum and dad, and grabbed lunch at The Lounge. While Steph went shopping, Isaac and I wandered around the harbour. It was freezing but refreshing to get out. At Tenby House, we bumped into Donna, Andrew, Holly, Evan, and Libby—a completely random encounter, but it was great to see them. They were off to lunch at Umi, so the catch-up was brief but enjoyable.
Faith and Gratitude
I felt especially struck today by how fortunate we are to have found such a supportive community at The Bridge. Many people were genuinely happy about our move and shared that they’d been praying for us.
TV
Finished Black Doves…polished, well acted, just not 100% on it - maybe season 2 will cement it.
