Vocational Visit MARCH 1ST.(With apologies to Neil Diamond)
Brother Pete’s Travellin’ Bicycle Show
One hot March night
And the leaves hanging down
And the rain on the ground smelling sweet
Move up the road
To the outside of town
And the sound of that good workshop beat.
Room gets suddenly still
And when you’d almost bet
You could hear yourself sweat, he walks in
Stooped, but full of soul
And when he lifts his face
Every ear in the place is on HIM
Starting soft and slow
Like a small earthquake
And when he lets go
Half the valley shakes
It’s Pete, Brother Pete’s say
Brother Pete’s Travelling Bicycle Show
A great crowd of 36 rolled up to B4H Fellowship Night. A cooler breeze wafted over the hill to make conditions pleasant.
Quite a few guests were present including Sierra Parent from Michigan, U.S.A, John and Maureen Turner (B4H), Chris Neretlis (B4H), Brad and Sue Uglo (B4H).Some of those present helped Pete prepare and stack some bikes into the container.
Pete , resplendent in his AFP uniform and new hairstyle narrated some of his experiences in Timor and invited those present to look through his memorabilia. He then explained the B4H enterprise and its operation and the project to send a container of bikes, spares and tools to Timor Leste.
We enjoyed a buffet meal and further fellowship.
Thanks to Pete and Cheryl Moore for their hospitality. And Also the B4H Team who were supplied coffee from Nadeem and Di
