7 young people, 2 slightly older, who were working on teams, 4 adults and two children all spent 5 days camping - (along with the other 9000!) at this brilliant Christian Youth Festival - now in its 17^th year.

Daily main meetings, (morning and evening) took place in the HUGE Big Top. Plus cafes, sports, seminars, a 2 screen cinema, various bands, workshops, creative arts- including dance and drama to participate in - meant there was something for everyone. The group really got 'stuck in'; making the most of the packed programme and all got a lot out of it

The expressed aim of Soul Survivor is:

        "to spend loads of time worshiping God, learning from his Word and being changed by His Spirit"   This aim was completely achieved.

Below are some of the comments written by the young people from Chulmleigh and Chawleigh themselves.

 "I declared my faith in front of everyone at the Big Top."

"Soul Survivor has filled me with a new hunger for God and a passion to serve"

"It was very apparent that God was working in great ways in everyone in the group and even away from the Big Top, which reassures me he will still be working back home"

"Huge amounts of fun and an incredible atmosphere"

"Prayer just gets better and better"

"I have never felt so close to God. It has been one of the best times of my life"     

The group would like to say a big Thank You! To Holly, for organizing the coffee morning to raise funds and to everyone who supported them in any way.
