Hi Ele,
I've been involved in the SPEAK group in Glasgow in time gone by but
recently haven't been particularly active. I'm in my final year of
medicine and I've got my final exams in just over 3 weeks time, so I
have had to put blinkers on to most other things happening at the
moment. Since I won't be finished exams until mid-May, I definitely
couldn't get involved in an April meeting. At the moment I'm not
really able to look ahead to the future but I am still interested in
the work of SPEAK. At the moment it isn't what I want to concentrate
my time on but it is good to be kept informed and to be encouraged to
think through justice issues.
Hope that doesn't seem too negative!
God bless,
Stuart (Fergusson)

I have a provisional date to come and see you and would REALLY VALUE
YOUR REPLY asap so I can be making plans :) It would be great to meet
with you guys and to chat/pray/eat? together.

this would be valuable for both you and them. I'm suggesting
Wednesday 26th April in the evening. (Failing that, possibly the
Tues.or Thurs. either side of it) .

share about, and invite you to, a one-day gathering in June
called "Check 2" (June 24th, London) where we'll be exploring how
SPEAK groups function beyond student-life. Your input in this as well
as what you could learn from other Young Adult groups and their
experiences would, I believe, be helpful for your group.

potential meeting. Encourage them to get in touch! I'm contactable
during the day on 01612328685 although I guess most of you are out at
work during this time. If you want to text me, my mob is 07969599052.
