On Monday 18th April 2011 until Wednesday 20th April 2011 about 70 of us set off from Aldridge for our annual time away at
Cloverley Hall, in Shropshire. Cloverley has always been a special place for YF and this year again proved no exception.

The reason we went so much later in the year was because there was a mix up over the dates back in February so the
Easter holidays was decided to be the best time to go. We couldn't have wished for nicer weather! The sun was
magnificent and seeing Cloverley with so many of the spring trees and flowers out was an added bonus.

Phil Wilks, our youth coordinator was our weekend speaker and he was brilliant
as we looked at some of the great men of God from Old Testament days.

Pictures and uTube clips below, show the fun we had and the serious teaching that went on over the weekend.
We also of course had to have a crazy concert, which this year was exceptional.
What a talented group we have. Our grateful thanks to Phil for all his hard work in preparing the talks;
 to our leadership team in making it all possible, and our teenagers who were just such a joy to be with.

More items will be added soon, so please check back

At the weekend, we said goodbye to one of our AYF leaders - Josh Blunt



Josh is soon to be married and he and his new wife will be attending a different church.
We are so grateful for all the input Josh has given the group, we are going to miss him.
We wish him, and Helen, every happiness in their new married life together.
