PAGE 1MIKE’S WELCOMESOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A Programme

Hello little ones!It’s good to see you; all year we’ve been lookIng forward to hangIng out together agaIn! If you’re new to soul survIvor then we hope you feel at home really quIckly. we may be a bIt of an odd bunch at fIrst look, but we’re pretty chIlled and lIke to have a laugh so hopefully you’ll go home wIth a bIg smIle on your face!

One thing I often ask myself at the start of Soul Survivor is how much difference can a few days make? The truth is that if it was just down to what we can do, we’d have a good time while we’re here but we’d go away pretty much the same. With God on the other hand – anything can happen! We believe that God wants to meet with us and change us; he can send us home completely refreshed, with transformed hearts and minds.

This year we’ll be focusing on the love of God – the crazy, unending, passionate, all-consuming, overwhelming love that meant God was willing to give up everything to be in relationship with us. That’s the best thing we can possibly focus on because it’s when we’re filled with that love that we can love God fully in return. And when we do that, we can’t help but love and serve others and tell the world about the incredible Saviour who has changed our lives.

Our prayer for you is that you offer these next few days to God and allow him to do whatever he wants in your life. We pray you have fun in all the venues, enjoy hanging out with your mates and stay dry in your sleeping bag; but that most of all you know more of God’s love and go home amazed at how much God has done in your life over the week.

With love

Mike

SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A ProgrammePAGE 4 WHO ArE YA? // WHAT’S IT ALL ABOuT?

in the beginning god created the heavens and the earth. a few years Later he created a greek guy caLLed mike piLavachi and he pLanted a LittLe idea in his mind.

The idea was to have a place where thousands of young people could get together, have a brilliant time and – most of all - meet with Jesus. Mike gathered a team together who liked the idea and bam! Here we are! Soul Survivor events have been running in Somerset since 1993 and in 2007 we wanted to find a venue a bit further north in the country so we could see more of the likes of you! We’ve made our temporary summer home here at the Stafford Showground since 2008 and we like it very much!

WHo ARe YA?

WHAt’s it ReAllY All About? we know and Love Jesus – we’ve seen him do amazing things in our Lives and the Lives of those around us. we beLieve he is the son of god and that through his death and resurrection, we can have reLationship with god.

While Jesus lived in human form on the earth he also said and did some pretty amazing things to help us realise what it means to live a life for God. And that is why we get together: to get to know God better, to worship him (find out about that on page 6) and to discover more about what it means to be a Christian.

poInt 1. We’re all about relationship. Firstly the most important relationship any of us can have is with God. Then, as Christians, God asks us to be in community which means looking out for one another. He also asks us to care about the world we live in and be in relationship with people who don’t know him.

poInt 2. We like to have a bit of a laugh in our meetings, we don’t take ourselves very seriously and we don’t pretend to be very slick or together. But we really do our best to honour Jesus in everything because we do take him very seriously.

poInt 3.Who’s who? Mike P’s the main man who directs all things Soul Survivor. You’ll spot him on stage wearing weird shirts and probably with a slightly crazy hairstyle.

His mates Andy Croft and Esther Davenport will host meetings with him; they are also involved with Soul Survivor.

There’s a whole bunch of people behind the scenes who you might never meet like Liz Biddulph (who keeps us all in line) and the rest of the team who will be scattered around the showground doing everything from answering your questions in Info to driving Fork Lift trucks (we don’t know why they do this but we’re told it’s essential).

THE MAIN MEETINGS

THE MAIN MEETINGS

Twice a day we all get together to have what we call a main meeting (because we couldn’t think of anything more catchy and clever to call them). We think these are the highlight of our time together at Soul Survivor because it’s brilliant to all be together in one place, praising God, hearing from his word and waiting on his Spirit. But what does all that really mean?

WoRsHip

Worship can mean lots of things – we can worship God through the way we live our lives, through acts of service, through looking out for others, and through our work. One of the ways the Bible talks about worship is to sing songs to God so that’s something we spend quite a lot of time doing. We think it’s more than just singing words – intimate worship is a chance for us to give God the praise he’s due, to focus on some truths about him, and it’s an opportunity for us to tell him we love him.

We also believe that we can meet with God whilst we’re worshipping him in this way. For many of us, encountering God through intimate worship has changed our lives. It’s made us fall deeply in love with

him, it’s a place where we can be honest with him and bring our pain and frustrations before him as well as our adoration.

The worship will generally be led by our band from stage and all the words will come up on screens in the venue. We’re a pretty informal bunch so feel free to stand or sit, dance or be still (just make sure you’re aware of the people around you so no one gets hurt!).

Page 9: 2011 Soul Survivor Week A Event Programme

PAGE 7SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A Programme THE MAIN MEETINGS

pRAYeR ministRY

Since Jesus isn’t still walking around in a bodily form, he gave us the Holy Spirit to live in us. The Holy Spirit heals, equips, convicts and empowers us. The Holy Spirit is always with us but during our main meetings we make time and space to ask God to increase that presence a bit like he did at Pentecost (you can read about that in Acts 2). The Holy Spirit also gives us gifts like prophesy and speaking in tongues.

This isn’t a time to hype stuff up (there’s no prize for who did the most crazy thing during ministry!) the time we tell what really happened and whether it was genuine is if we’re changed afterwards.

We’d really encourage you to engage with God during these times even if you’re not used to prayer ministry. Mike will keep trying to explain what is going on from the front (but as it’s God in control and not him, we don’t know what will happen ahead of time). It’s a great chance to let someone pray for you – or to pray for others. Have a read through our prayer guidelines on page 70 if you’d like to pray for other people.

There will also be an Enabling Team around who have been praying for people for a while. They’re there in case you want to ask any questions and to give you a bit of guidance. Look out for their badges and feel free to approach them at any point during the ministry times if you feel like you need some help or advice!

GoD’s WoRD

The Bible is an amazing book but because it was written quite a long time ago, sometimes we need a little help understanding what it’s all about. We’ve got a team of people together to help unravel some of the mysteries of the Bible. The Bible contains life-changing truths and we will be spending some of our time together unpacking those and applying them to everyday situations.

Nodding off at the back? If you think Bible teaching is a bit boring, hopefully we’ll change your mind before the end of the week! God’s word isn’t dry, boring and meaningless – it doesn’t have to be talked about with sombre faces, grey suits and a droning voice. We want to have a laugh whilst learning from God’s word so relax and enjoy!

Prepare to have your mind boggled! We have a huge range of venues here at Soul Survivor A, all revved up and raring to go! The only problem is, it can be tricky to keep track of what’s what and what’s where so over the next few pages you’ll find a handy guide to all that’s going on.

Although we make a big deal out of our main meetings, we think this stuff is really important too. We don’t want to separate things out and have ‘spiritual’ and ‘non-spiritual activities’ (otherwise people will start chucking about words like dualism and then we all get confused).

Instead we want to celebrate the fact that God is in all our venues around site. So whether we’re having a chat with a mate over a slice of cake, having a laugh with our team on the sports field or singing our favourite lyrics at the Bandstand, God is in it all. So get stuck in and enjoy!

FURNACEFurnace is a quiet spot in an otherwise often hectic showground! This is a brilliant, creative and inviting space where you can come and pray, take a chance to process some of the things God has been saying and doing, seek him about a particular situation or just come and be. There’s no agenda but there will be some creative prayer prompts for you to use if you’d like.

Some people have really big ears. We like those people and find them very useful so we gather them up and put them all together in a room. Then we invite other people we like (namely you!) to go in and talk to them.

So whatever you’d like to chat about, this is the place. Our Big Ears would like nothing more than to hear how you’re feeling about what’s going on this week, what life is like for you back home, what you’re confused or excited about in life, or even what you had for breakfast this morning.

They just love putting their big ears to use so make the most of them and pop in for a chat.

The main meeting’s finished but if you feel like you just want to worship God some more, come and join us in our Late Night Worship sessions which do what they say on the tin.

These aren’t like the main evening meetings, they are more intimate gatherings with a smaller band and a more chilled vibe. So head on over, bring your praises to God and enjoy spending some more time worshipping him in song. People leading these sessions include a few guests and members of the main stage team.

They want to see a whole generation of people who love God and are passionate about the things that he’s passionate about, like standing up for those living in poverty and making a noise about the injustice in the world.

So, if you’re up for it, your first challenge is to come on in and enjoy some fairly-traded drinks and snacks. Easy huh? Then once you’ve soaked up your surroundings and drunk your fill you might want to find out some more about the brilliant work of Soul Action and how you can get involved.

If you just want a quiet spot, don’t worry, the team won’t be offended, they’ll just leave you to it. If you do want to chat, just throw them a smile and they’ll be all yours. You might want to chat about something deep and meaningful or you might want to talk about the current Home & Away plotlines, either way our team will be happy to see you!

tHe Hot spot

In some game shows ‘a hotspot is not a good spot’. In the Fringe the Hotspot is brilliant! The deal is this: you drop your questions off with the Fringe team during the day, then swing by at 10.30pm to hear someone’s thoughts on your question. Simple eh?!

Our mates from XLP are joining the Fringe venue this week and they’ve brought their state-of-the-art mobile recording studio with them!

YouR Host

ROSSY B! Songwriter and producer Rossy B has made it up country to host Blueprint. He’s from Bristol, part of the Dub Step outfit Statix, and played keys for the band ‘We Start Party’s’.

the voyage of the the dawn treader Dragons, dwarves, merfolk, a band of lost warriors, and escaping to Narnia through a magical painting – it’s all just another day’s work for our intrepid heroes Lucy and Edmund.

This time they return to Narnia with their cousin Eustace, join forces with Prince Caspian and head to Aslan’s country to save the inhabitants of Narnia from an unfathomable fate. 1 hour 41mins (PG)

toY stoRY 3

Andy’s off to college, and that means Woody, Buzz and the crew have a play-date with destiny. When they’re accidentally donated to the local nursery some of the toys are delighted that at last someone wants to play with them. When they realise the nursery is under the leadership of Lotso, there’s only one thing for it: they have to escape. Woody leads the charge, desperately fighting to get back to his beloved Andy, but will they make it?

This film comes with a warning, it may be very fun but it’s also been known to reduce grown men to blubbering wrecks. Bring your tissues and your best “Dust got in my eye” excuses. 1 hour 38mins (PG)

In fair Verona, where we lay our scene….. don’t worry, we’re not going all English Lit lesson on you, this film may take place in Verona, the setting of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, but there’s not a rhyming couplet to be seen.

Instead we have an American girl, Sophie, fascinated by letters written to Shakespeare’s heroine, discovering the team of women behind answering them.

When she uncovers a letter that’s been left unanswered for decades she sets about finding the lovers referenced in the letter and finds herself swept up in a romantic adventure. 1 hour 41mins (PG)

GulliVeR’s tRAVels

Jack Black (Lemuel Guliver) takes a trip in search of the Bermuda Triangle to impress a woman and to try and find himself a new career (as you do). Instead he ends up in Lilliput, surrounded by teeny-tiny people, and being looked up to in more ways than one. How will Lemuel cope with his new found fame? 1 hour 33mins (PG)

SHOWING: DAY 4

HoW to tRAin YouR DRAGon

Hiccup is a failure in his father’s eyes; he’s too skinny and more interested in inventing things than taking part in the village pastime of slaying enemy dragons. Hiccup wants to impress, not only his father, but Astrid who happens to be the girl of his dreams as well as a hardcore dragon fighter to boot.

When Hiccup invents something that manages to bring down a dragon he can’t bring himself to finish the deed and instead befriends the dragon, finding out in the process that everything he and his village believe about the creatures isn’t true. This is a brilliant tale of adventure and friendship with lots of laughs along the way. 1 hour 34mins (PG)

THE TooLSHEd

This is a MASS INFORMATION WARNING! Please be aware that as you enter the Shed that is known for its Tools, your senses will be overloaded with some of the finest offerings known to mankind. Browse the stalls and you’ll find brilliant resources that are all about helping you in your walk with Jesus. There are books, CDs, DVDs, gap year opportunities and loads of great stuff from fantastic charities. So take a deep breath, gather your wits, go in and enjoy!

Here’s a couple of things to bear in mind about the ToolShed, that we’re pretty serious about:

tImeDay 1: 9.15pm-11.30pmDays 2-5: 1pm-6pm & 9.15pm-11.30pm

loCatIon:The ToolShed

point 1

All the stands and organisations are here to equip you in your walk with Jesus. That means none of them should be getting upset because you don’t quite get their theological angle on things. If you feel like you’ve been accosted by an over-zealous exhibitor, then pop into Information and let one of our team know.

point 2

Most of the items that are sold in the ToolShed are either resources or a way of generating money to support the work of a charitable trust. We know lots of you like having a browse around but the absolute last thing we want is for anyone to feel pressured to spend any cash. We’re not trying to make money out of you.

point 3

From time to time Mike & Co might mention a book, CD or DVD on mainstage. Just so you know, there are no marketing deals going on – if they say they like it and think you will too, they mean they like it and think you will too (no one is paying them to push the product at you).

Basically what this boils down to is the fact that we like you, we think you’re pretty special and we don’t want to treat you like marketing fodder. We want you to be able to relax and have a good time at Soul Survivor. Nuff said?

wHAT’S A SEMINAR?

Seminars are teaching sessions – similar to the ones we have in our main meetings – but that last an hour and are on a whole range of topics. There are lots of seminars happening over Soul Survivor A and they happen at 9.30am, 2.30pm and 4pm each day (except Day 1‘cos that’s when we’re all busy putting up tents plus Day 5 when we have Communion instead of 9.30 seminars) so have a look through and pick the ones that interest you the most. If you miss any – or find that two clash at the same time – you can pick up a recording from the Soul Survivor stand in the ToolShed or order one online when you get home.

tImesDays 2-4 9.30am, 2.30pm & 4pmDay 5 2.30pm & 4pm

Because the number of seminars is a bit mind-boggling, we’ve put them into three categories so you can tell at a glance what they’re all about.

up

The ‘Up’ stream looks at all the stuff we do to communicate with God, and how he communicates back to us. Expect talks in this stream to be all about stuff like worship, prayer and the Bible.

in

This stream takes a look at the things that are going on inside, so seminars will explore working on our character, developing our gifts and dealing with things that have hurt us.

out

All the seminars in here will focus on how we work out our faith in the world around us so will focus on things like evangelism, serving the poor and standing for justice.

4pmfaIth under pressure

Patrick Regan We all face difficulties in our personal lives which can impact our engagement with our communities, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and wondering if we’re in any position to help others. This seminar will look at the hope and comfort God promises us in these situations and how focusing on this will enable us to offer that hope and comfort to others. BLUEPRINT (13015)

revolutIon faCebook style

Jason Gardner We often say that Jesus is the greatest revolutionary that walked the planet. So if he was around today would he have organised a political upheaval using social networking like people around the globe are doing today? Should Christians be channelling the technology to create change? And if we really want to create a stir for Christ, how do we do it in an age of mass media? SEMINAR B (13016)

healIng Instead of hurtIng

Jeannie Morgan Maybe we’ve suffered from some sort of abuse, maybe we’ve lost someone near to us or it may be that we’ve been robbed of safety, security and hope. This seminar will look at some of the causes of our pain, and how we can find healing. Confidential prayer ministry will be available.ROCKETS (13017)

hmmmmmm...Andy Croft

If God doesn’t blow our minds wide open he probably won’t blow open our lives. In this seminar we’ll take a look at some of the amazing truths about God; How can it be he was never created? What does it mean that he’s outside time? What are his plans for the world? What is God actually like? SEMINAR A (13018)

the father heart of godDaniel Hoogteijling

God longs to father our orphaned hearts and give us an understanding of his love for us as his children. This seminar aims to bring liberation and a revelation of God’s good heart towards us.SEMINAR C (13019)

TOM FIELD Worship leader Tom went home to New Zealand for

a wedding last November and then claimed he had visa issues which delayed his return to the UK for six months. We think he was just avoiding the British winter and topping up his tan as he spent most of his time at home surfing. Either that or he really is Fernando Torres and disappeared to play for Chelsea for the season.

JEANNIE MORGANJeannie is married to Ken, and is part of Soul

Survivor Watford church. She also travels every now and then as part of the Soul Survivor international team teaching about prayer ministry. She’s written a couple of books including ‘Let the Healing Begin’ and is passionate about people finding healing in Jesus. We think she’s ace!

KIERA PHYO Kiera is married to Trevor and heads up the

Tearfund Youth Team. She’s half Irish, very messy and her talents include talking very quickly and juggling mobile phones. If you’re struggling with how to say ‘Phyo’, it’s pronounced ‘Pew’.

MIKE PILAVACHI Mike is a West Wing fan and master chef who

spends a lot of time taking the mick out of his mates and competing with them over anything and everything. Sadly he hasn’t found a way to make a living out of any of that, so following on from his previous careers as an accountant and youth worker he now heads up everything at Soul Survivor and pastors its associated church (Soul Survivor Watford), speaks at events around the world, writes the odd book and tries to keep up with his five Facebook accounts.

PATRICK REGANPatrick has worked for 18 years to see young

people from the most challenging backgrounds succeed in life. He founded the charity XLP which serves thousands of young people and their families weekly in inner London. His most recent book is ‘Fighting Chance: Tackling Britain’s Gang Culture’and recently won the Mayor of London’s peace award. Patrick lives wife his wife and three children in south-east London.

JAMIE RODWELL The biggest news in Jamie’s life since last

summer? He FINALLY got a haircut in February! It made Mike happy but sadly it seemed his long hair was the source of his musical talents so he’s had to learn how to play the guitar all over again. He’s also been kept busy studying for his AS Levels, helping out with worship at Soul Survivor Watford church and playing sport.

MARK RUSSELL Mark is Chief Executive of Church Army, a movement

of Evangelists in the Church of England, as well as the youngest member of the Archbishops Council of the Church of England. Originally from Northern Ireland, Mark is a Spurs fan, so he knows what it means to suffer!

Scripture Union. He’s spent the last 17 years involved in youth work in Birmingham giving him a passion to help Christians live out their faith amongst their Muslim friends. He’s married to Sarah and they have two sons. He can usually be found playing trains or listening to good but obscure bands.

MIRIAM SWAFFIELD Miriam recently graduated from the University of York

where she studied Writing, Directing and Performance. She is now working as Student Mission Developer for Fusion. Her passion is to tell those who don’t know the Christian message about Jesus and she likes to think she is more of a surfer than she actually is.

ANTS WATTS Ants hails from New Zealand where he is one

of the pastors of Spreyden Baptist church. He lives with his wife Sandy, daughters Hanna & Olivia and seven of their mates. Together they try to work out what it means to follow Jesus, and celebrate moments of beauty in the world as the kingdom comes here on earth.

SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A ProgrammePAGE 48 WHO, WHAT, WHErE AND WHY?

Why do people close their eyes And put up their hAnds in Worship?

Often in times of sung worship people close their eyes which can look a bit strange if you’re not used to it. There’s nothing weird going on though, mostly people do it to shut out other distractions and help them focus on God. Raising yours hands high is a sign of praise, or some would say they are reaching for God. Sometimes people turn their palms upwards as a sign that they are making themselves open to receive from God. Everyone expresses prayer and praise to God differently but most would be open to explaining their actions if you ask politely and at an appropriate time, so don’t be shy!

Who, WhAt, Where, When & Why?

Why do people do Weird things When the holy spirit comes in poWer?

Good question! People do all sorts of things when they meet with God – sometimes they cry, sometimes they laugh, sometimes they make weird noises or move their body in strange ways, other times they are completely quiet and still.

There’s nothing to be worried about with any of that, it’s just the way different people respond to God’s presence. If you’re unsure about an experience you’ve had, chat to one of the Enabling Team but equally if you’re not meeting with God in this way, don’t worry.

The important thing is that we stay focused on Jesus and that as much as is humanly possible, we don’t hype stuff up. We just want to leave room for the Holy Spirit to work in our lives and the thing that changes us isn’t what noises we make in ministry, it’s the presence of God in our lives.

Why is the music in the mAin meetings All led on guitAr?

In heaven all music will be led on guitar so we’re getting in good practice. Just kidding. We believe God loves it when we offer him genuine praise using any musical style but because there are so many of us gathered together we have to find one style that suits the majority of people. We know it’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea but hopefully the words and the melodies are accessible for most people and the feedback we get tells us most of you guys love it.

We try and involve different musical styles where we can (like getting our friends from 29th Chapter to bring the hip hop beats) but the last thing we want to do is try and pretend we know what we’re talking about when it comes to styles like drum n bass! We don’t have a clue so we’ll stick to what we know best whilst encouraging everyone to find the musical style that suits them.

These are the pages where we try and answer some of the things you might find confusing about Soul Survivor and our events…

hoW cAn i get the lyrics/chord chArts to the songs?

Many are available in song books you can buy from our stand in the ToolShed so pop along and have a chat with the team.

We’ll also try and post more details on our website of songs that we’ve sung a lot, so keep an eye on our news pages (www.soulsurvivor.com/uk/news) for details.

cAn i recommend A BAnd or volunteer A Friend oF mine to plAy At gigs venue or Be A dJ in Blueprint?

If you’re a band who already has a good following and lots of live experience, you can send us a demo CD before November and we’ll have a listen. We love how many of you are passionate about music but unfortunately, because we get loads of stuff sent in, we can’t always respond personally.

Why do We hAve to sit on the Floor?

Sorry if you find it uncomfortable sitting on the floor but the basic answer is because we want to fit lots of you into a small space! It’s not that we think chairs are for wimps, just that having chairs would drastically cut the number of people we can get in to the main meetings and also mean there’s not as much freedom in worship to move around.

hoW do the BAnd get to Be the BAnd And speAkers get to Be speAkers?

Everyone who is part of the band or who speaks at our events is someone we know, trust and are in relationship with. When we put someone ‘up front’ we have to make sure we know who they are, that they love Jesus and that they are part of a church back home (so we know they are accountable and that they are committed to growing in their relationship with Jesus). It’s not about being exclusive and we’re not saying the people ‘up front’ are more special than anyone else; it’s about making sure we can vouch for the integrity of the people who are serving you in these ways.

Why does everything else close When the mAin meetings Are on?

The most important thing we can do when we all get together is to focus on Jesus and that’s why we make a big deal of our main meetings. We don’t want there to be any other distractions because we know that Jesus is worthy of our full attention. Also, because all the venues around site are staffed by volunteers, closing them twice a day gives the teams a chance to have a break and meet with God for themselves.

Why is mike so rude to people on stAge?

Certain things make Mike laugh and taking the mick out of his mates is definitely one of them!

But don’t worry, he wouldn’t be that rude to someone who didn’t know that he loved them and was for them. We like having a laugh because we don’t take ourselves too seriously. But we do take God seriously so hope we don’t cause any offence when we’re mucking about.

SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A ProgrammePAGE 50 WHO, WHAT, WHErE & WHY?

Who, WhAt, Where, When & Why continued...Why Aren’t there more toilets And shoWers?

We make sure that we have twice the recommended amount of toilets and showers than the Health and Safety regulations suggest. But we know that still means some of you have to queue for your shower in the morning, sorry.

Try and help each other out by being quick; or think about having a shower at a different time of day, like before you go to bed when there are less people waiting! We have an amazing team of cleaners who work from 7am to 7pm to keep everything clean and fresh for you. If you spot any problems, do let our Comms team know and they will get it sorted.

Why Are the Food vAns so expensive?

Sorry if you’ve found the vans expensive; we don’t have any control over the prices or the menus (the showground people sort out who comes).

There are some alternatives to eating at the food vans – check out Things to Know on Page 72.

Why do you sAy you don’t hAve much money When it costs us Around £100 eAch to Be here?

We really try not to talk about money very much so we hope you don’t think we go on about it. Soul Survivor is a charity which means we don’t make any money – everything we get is put back into running events and creating resources for you.

Ticket prices for our events cover the main costs of putting them on (like hiring the showground and the equipment we need) but we also have an office we need to run round the year to make sure the events happen like they’re supposed to.

This means we need to rent office space, pay staff and buy computers and stuff. Plus there’s lots of stuff we do that we don’t get any money for – like updating the website and putting resources on there for you guys.

So ticket prices don’t cover everything and the only way we can keep doing what we do is by people donating money to help us pay for it all. If you’d like to find out more about ways you can support us, please see page 53.

Got a burning question we didn’t answer? Email [email protected] and we’ll try and include it in future.

At one of our main meetings we will take up a collection for the following causes. There’s no obligation to give, so please don’t feel pressured, but we think they are brilliant causes and we hope you do too!

the oFFering

soul Action

A third of the money will go to the brilliant work of Soul Action (our partnership with relief and development agency Tearfund). This is the part of Soul Survivor that’s all about living out God’s heart for justice and helping people out of poverty. If you’d like to find out more about Soul Action, have a little read of the article on page 54.

the persecuted church

Around the world, many of our brothers and sisters in Jesus are persecuted for their faith. We’re in contact with a number of Christians in Central Asia and we want to do all we can to support them as they live out their faith in incredibly difficult circumstances.

young leAders

We’re pretty passionate about investing in the leaders of tomorrow in order to see the church growing and thriving in the future.

Over the years we’ve had the privilege of working with people like Matt Redman, Tim Hughes, Martyn Layzell, Lex Buckley, Ben Cantelon and Vicky Beeching and we’d love to invest in many more of tomorrow’s pastors, church planters, worship leaders and speakers.

If you miss the main meeting where the collection is held, you can pop your donation into Information at any point during the week. We really appreciate your generosity in getting behind these causes... Thanks so much!

Chica* is from Cambodia and she was just 14 when she became a slave. Sadly her story is all too common. Her dad was desperate for money to feed his other young children and send them to school, so he sold Chica to a bar owner across the border in Thailand. Chica was sold. But she’s not a product. She’s a person, created by God to have freedom; freedom that was stolen. Chica managed to run away and she made it back into Cambodia. But with no money, job, skills or training she could – like many others - have ended up living on the streets. Thanks to the work of Soul Action supported project Cho, Chica now lives in a safe-house and is learning some basic sewing skills. Cho is helping her to learn a trade, making sure she has the freedom to define her own future.

There are thousands of young people around the world like Chica who don’t enjoy the same freedom that we do, so this summer Soul Action is inviting you to use your freedom to help them.

the sessions

Day 2: out oF hiding

What are the things that make us hide from God and others? The things we’ve done wrong? Things we’re ashamed of? Things we’re scared of? How can we be free to bring all that we are to God, knowing that he loves and accepts us just as we are?

Day 3: out oF the Box

What does it mean to be feminine in the 21st Century? Who does God say that we are and how does that differ from what the world tells us? We’ll be getting to grips with issues of identity and looking to God to help us understand who we really are and what it means to be girls.

Day 4: out oF this World

In our last session we’ll be thinking about what we want our story to be. How can we really live life to the full? How can we extend that same freedom to our friends back home? What are the tools we need to make this stuff work when we get back home?

Over 13,000 of you logged on at the start and though we know not everyone has kept up to date, we’ve been hugely encouraged by how many of you have enjoyed it! We heard some brilliant stories of youth groups reading together & supporting each other; people reading with their families, and others getting their non-churched friends interested. We even had one youth group in Germany translating our blogs for each other before school every morning! That’s awesome!

We’re really passionate about getting into God’s word, it’s an amazing way to understand how he wants us to be living. We know it’s sometimes hard to get to grips with, so each day we’ve been posting videos or blogs that help explain what’s going on. And guess what?! We’ve enjoyed it so much we’re going to do the whole thing again starting on September 1st! So whether you’re new to this or got stuck and want to start over, get yourself logged on and we’ll do it together!

“I’m loving the Bible in One Year so far. Reading my Bible every day has always been something I’ve struggled to do, but having all the readings together in one place along with the website is really good and encouraging!”

“There are so many people all over the UK reading the Bible ‘together’ and that just spurs me on, knowing that I’m acting as part of one body.”

“I’m loving the Bible in a year! I’m enjoying every day more and more! The website is awesome. To get some commentary on it and see what everyone who is reading it together thinks about the passages”

“It’s great to come to the website & find like minded people to discuss what the days reading means to them. It’s nice to know people are asking the same questions as I’m thinking. Now I don’t feel afraid to ask!”

Just so you knoW…

Some of the content will be the same as this year and some will be new. The cover of the Bible in One Year has been refreshed and is looking mighty fine but the readings will be in the same order as last year.

textiFy By MiKe pilavachi /hope

I hate to admit it, but I love my phone. Being the very trendy, culturally aware and tech savvy man that I am, I do (of course) own an iPhone… and I almost know how to use it.

Forget emails on the go, receiving calls or even Angry Birds… I love my phone because of two apps: Facebook and Twitter. I can change my status when I’m on the loo. I can give a little tweet whilst I’m preparing a feast in my kitchen. I can connect with all my friends (and spy on them) no matter where I am in the world. I love it!

Like me, I’m guessing you love communicating and connecting with your friends too. Apparently 5,000 text messages are sent every second in the UK. Combine that with the 50 million tweets and Facebook updates that we upload every day and it’s pretty obvious we all love being able to connect with our mates on the go!

All this stuff is an amazing way to share our lives with our mates! So, how about joining us as we explore ways to use our phones and social networking sites to start a conversation with our friends about Jesus? We know Jesus’ love is definitely worth sharing, but we also know how hard it can be to talk to

our mates about what we believe. The good thing is our phones can help us get a bit of confidence and get a conversation going…. we can use them to Textify!

Join the textiFy chAllenge!Textify is a challenge to spend five days praying for three of your mates.But it’s more than that. At some point over those five days we want you to be brave and text your mates a question or God thought to start up a conversation. Their response could lead to a chat about the real difference Jesus makes to your life. You might be amazed at what God does through you!

When to stArt?

You can be one of thousands who take five days to Textify between the 12 – 30th September – a good time to go for it as school terms get started!Pray, get prepared, and then share your hope with your friends.

you could text A conversAtion stArter like:

“I am praying for you this week - what would you like me to pray for?”; “When we next meet up, ask me about my faith”; or “ What are your hopes in life? Ask me why I’ve got hope”.

Yes it can be scary, but a simple text could be the start of more than just a conversation! Ask the Holy Spirit to give you the words to say and the confidence to say them (John 14:26). Ask some Christian friends to do this with you and pray for each other too.

But remember, our faith isn’t just about words… following Jesus is about our actions too, so as we Textify we also need to live in a way that backs up what we say say! Together we can share God’s love, through our words and our actions.

get involved

seminAr recordingsWhat’s the most common question people who come along to Soul Survivor ask? Nope, it’s not ‘how old is Mike Pilavachi?’ (he’s eighty two if you’re interested). From our extensive research it’s more like ‘Oh no, I missed an awesome sounding seminar. Gutted. Is there any way I can hear or watch it?’.

When you’re home:

Get online and head to www.soulsurvivor.com/uk/shop. You’ll be able to order any of the talks as mp3 files, audio CDs or video DVDs. We’re aiming to get the new set of talks up for the end of September. That’s exciting right?

If you find yourself in this predicament we’re here to help. And so is technology. Every year we record all the seminars so you can buy audio copies of any sessions that you’ve missed. But there’s more. We also film all the seminars too, so barring a few (very likely) technical glitches, we’ll also be able to offer DVDs of the complete seminar timetable as well.

Where do i get them?

Firstly you need to decide what seminar you’d like to hear. Go through the Day Planner (starting on page 33) and flick through the descriptions. At the bottom of each entry you should find a little number starting 1300--*. Just remember that number and do one of the following:

Whilst At soul survivor:

Pop along to the Soul Survivor stand in the ToolShed and chat to one of the team behind the tills. They will help you in either buying an Audio CD or a video DVD of any of the talks.

The CDs and DVDs should be available by the end of the week (depending on how good our technical skills are), so you can pick up any session to take home with you. If not, you can order the session and we’ll send it out to you in the post (by end of September). Costs for CDs are £2 and DVDs will be £4.

mAd For Jesus BiBle reaDinG notesSo, you’re here! is your tent up? Got all your food? or is it burger and chips from here on in? you’re going to have a fantastic time over the next few days, even if you do put on three stone from eating kebabs all day. But try to set aside some time each day to spend on your own with God, reflecting on what you have heard so far, listening to God, praising him and telling him the things you’re worried about.

These six slices of the Bible are designed to help you do this and, rather handily, they explore the same themes you’ll be hearing about over the next few days.

As well as what’s here, you’ll be able to access more stuff on your mobile, if you can get on the web.

Just head to www.wordlive.org/soulsurvivor and you’ll be able to find some great audio, video and background info for each day.

Ready? Well, wipe that burger grease off your fingers and let’s get going.

dAy 1 paul calls for a raDical love

Who do you model yourself on? Whose style do you like? Pause for a moment and think of all the influences on your life. Are they positive?

Read Philippians 2:1–18 and underline all the bits you think would be good guidance on how to live.

So, what did you underline? Well, I suppose you could have underlined the whole thing, so packed are these 18 verses with good stuff. But what struck me when looking at this was what Paul says about our attitude to others. He uses words like ‘humble’, ‘interested in others’, ‘servant’, ‘sacrifice’ and calls the Philippians to ‘shine like stars in a dark world’. But most of all, he holds Jesus as the example for us all – Jesus was radical in his life. He showed love, mercy, kindness, humility, became like a servant. He was obedient to God to the point that he died on the cross, so that we could be made right with the Father.

•Is Jesus one of the influences in your life? How much?

•How much does your life match Paul’s description? Think about your whole life, not just the times when you’re doing ‘spiritual’ things.

•If Jesus lived the radical life and followed God’s way to the extreme, what does that mean for you?

dAy 2 aBraM heaDs into the unKnoWn

What kind of personality do you have? Do you need to have a plan, to know what you’re doing at every stage, maybe even have lots of lists to help you? Or do you let things happen, ‘cos it’ll all turn out right in the end? Or something in between?

Read Genesis 12:1–9 and reflect on what Abram would have known about God’s plans.

We don’t know much about Abram before this passage. But what we do know is that his love for God must have been HUGE.

Look at what God tells him in verse 1. Abram gets a big call, but no details – he knows God’s ultimate destination, but not exactly where that is or how it will happen. Yet Abram packs up and goes into the unknown, armed only with God’s call and his great promises (in verses 2 and 3).

•WhatwouldyouhavedoneinAbram’s position?

•LettingGodleaduswherehewants us to go is daunting, but it changes the world. How ready would you be to answer God’s radical call if it came now? Is anything holding you back?

dAy 3 Daniel stanDs up anD stanDs out

Have you ever attracted attention because of your faith? Was it good attention? Or did you get criticism and insults? How did that make you feel? How did you react?

Read Daniel 6 – if you’ve heard this story lots of times before, try to read it as if it’s the first time.

Daniel’s life has not been plain sailing at all. He has had to rely on God to get him and his friends out some pretty sticky situations, because their faith has attracted anger and criticism. And here is no different. On a piece of paper (or in the margins), write down what you make of Daniel, Darius and the supervisors. What words would you use to describe them? The jealousy and greed of the supervisors lead them to trick Darius into laying a trap for Daniel and he gets major stick for keeping

on with God. But Daniel carries on following God’s radical plan for his life. He doesn’t let anything stand in his way.

•WhatwouldyouhavedoneinDaniel’s situation?

•Doyougetnegativecommentswhen you’re doing stuff for God? How do you react? Are you discouraged? Do you stop? Or do you keep going?

•HasGodspokentoyouthroughthis story? What’s the impact on your life going to be?

dAy 4 peter Gets it riGht, anD WronG, anD riGht, anD WronG…If your life was a graph, with time marked along the bottom and how well you’re doing in your walk with Jesus up the side, what would it look like? Would it be a straight line of increasing holiness? Or more like a roller-coaster?

Read Matthew 14:22–32. If you were Peter, would you have even got out of the boat?

Peter gets it right, and then almost immediately wrong again. It’s easy to say what a doofus he is, but I’m not sure I would’ve even stepped off the boat. Many people identify with Peter, as he’s a two-steps-forward-23-steps-back kind of guy. In Matthew 16, he identifies Jesus as the Chosen One and then goes and does something that leads Jesus to say he’s talking like Satan. He steps

out for Jesus, but often gets things wrong. However, he experiences Jesus’ forgiveness and is used greatly by God. He never stops learning, and goes on to change the world!

•Doesacalltoradicallyloveandfollow Jesus mean we will always get things right?

•Whatdoyoudowhenyoudosomething wrong? Does it make you hesitant and cautious?

•Howwelldoyoulearnfromyourmistakes?

dAy 5 Mary Gives all she has

I was given an iPad the other week by a friend. I know. GIVEN. I was speechless, literally. What’s the best thing someone’s given you? How did it make you feel?

Read John 12:1–8 and try to think how many people you could help with an average year’s wages – about £27,000.

There are two main players here (apart from Jesus). Mary gives Jesus something that would have cost a year’s wages. Judas wants to sell it and give the money to the poor. On face value, Judas seems to have a point. Think back to all the things you might do with £27,000 – what a radical thing it would be to change so many lives! But Jesus can see ulterior motives: Mary loves Jesus so much that she honours him radically with her most prized possession; Judas doesn’t want

dAy 6: BAck home the early church Goes viral

So, now you’re back home and Soul Survivor probably seems a lifetime ago. Spend some time now reflecting on what God said to you while you were away.

Read Acts 2:43–47 and 4:32–37. What might your church look like if it behaved in the same way?

The Roman empire was a money-grabbing place. If you were rich, you gave money and support to people less well off than you, but only in return for other favours (votes in elections, rent-a-mob, that kind of thing).

But the church here is being completely counter-cultural. Sharing money with no thought of any reward, happily sharing food. And what’s the effect in 2:47? Their radical life attracts others.Now your church may never be

completely like this (and in some ways it’s an unfair comparison). But you can live radically for God where you are now – you and your church can make a difference.

SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A ProgrammePAGE 70 PrAYEr MINISTrY

one of the things we’re really passionate about at Soul Survivor is meeting with God. during the main meetings and celebrations we will always try to let God lead what’s going on by his Spirit. As part of this the leaders of the meeting will make time for us to wait on God’s Spirit and pray for particular groups of people they believe God wants to ‘minister’ to. it’s a chance for God to work in our lives, so try to be as open to him as possible.

prAyer ministry

Don’t worry if you’ve never had prayer offered in this way, or if you’re not sure how to pray. Mike P and the team will talk you through what’s going on as it happens. We also have an experienced ‘Enabling Team’ who will be around to give you a guiding hand, plus there’s a whole bunch of seminars on the Holy Spirit and praying for others too, so get along to one of them.

There is no ‘right way’ to pray for each other. However, we’ve included these guidelines as they are tried and tested and tend to work quite well! While you’re with us please stick to the advice given.

so, WhAt hAppens?

Ministry times usually begin with an invitation from someone on the main stage for people to respond

to the Holy Spirit. In praying for people, the most important thing to remember is that this is God’s work, not ours. We are there to encourage those seeking God and to bless what the Holy Spirit is doing in people.

A guide to prAying For others…God can use any of us to help people meet with him, but we’ve found that some of this common sense stuff is useful in making sure we don’t get in God’s way when we’re praying for others.

GenDer:

Only pray for someone who shares your gender. Prayer ministry can bring up all sorts of stuff and so it’s a tried and tested

principle to always have at least one person with you who shares the same physical bits as the person you’re praying for. Even if you’re married we’d ask you to bear this in mind to avoid any confusion for others around you.

Mouth:

Don’t be afraid to ask someone what they would like you to pray for and what God is doing – even if the Holy Spirit is moving powerfully on them (in Luke 18v40 Jesus asks the blind man ‘What do you want me to do for you?’).

However, be aware of not turning this into a long conversation, this is a time for the Holy Spirit to offer counselling, not you! If appropriate speak into the situation or condition in Jesus’ name, be sensitive and recognise that you may be wrong. If you have a prophetic word or picture, offer these as a prayer or in such a way that the person being prayed for can make their own decision as to how appropriate they are. Never insist that what you have to say is a word from God but seek to build up, comfort and encourage the person you’re praying for (1 Corinthians 14v3).

hanDs:

Encourage the person to receive from God and be still, rather than pray for themselves. Some people may show this attitude by opening their hands in front of them. You can also lay your hands on them (if they are comfortable with that). This can be helpful for the person being prayed for and it’s Biblical,

Page 73: 2011 Soul Survivor Week A Event Programme

PAGE 71SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A Programme PrAYEr MINISTrY

especially with regards to healing (in Mark 1 v40-45 Jesus heals a man of leprosy, as a blessing Matthew 19v13-15 Jesus blesses the children). Be sensitive about where you place your hands.

eyes:

Keep your eyes open when you pray for someone. This means you are more aware of what God is doing and how the person is responding.

It also means you can be prepared if they look like they may fall over in the power of the Spirit. If this does happen then please make sure they are in a comfortable position, not draped over anyone else and that their dignity is maintained (i.e. nothing is on show that shouldn’t be). It is not always necessary to stay with the person you have prayed with but encourage them to go on receiving from God. Keep a watchful eye on them and continue to check that they are safe for as long as you think is needed.

ears:

Listen carefully both to the person you are praying with, and to God. Ask the Holy Spirit for guidance and encouragement, be prepared to wait, this is God’s work, not yours. The person you are praying for may tell you about things that have happened in their life. Don’t appear to be shocked by any disclosures. Remember that confidentiality is of the utmost importance but DO NOT promise to keep anything secret (especially with regards to claims of abuse).

Your first contact in such a situation should be a member of the Enabling Team. They are there to support you and the person you are praying with and will be able to take things further if necessary.

the Whole BoDy:

Allowing the expression of feelings is very important and this might mean people cry, shake or respond in other ways to what God is doing. This is totally cool, but be careful not to suppress or to build up the situation. Alternatively some people might not seem to respond physically at all. That’s fine too. We want God to do what he needs to do, we don’t want to get in the way of that and we want to make sure people leave a time of ministry feeling loved and valued.

space:

It’s brilliant to have more than one person praying for someone at a time so feel free to go over and join someone who’s praying already. That said, it’s can be distracting if a large group gather around someone when the ministry is of a sensitive nature so please ensure people have enough personal space and aren’t over-crowded.

And FinAlly…

Not everyone is familiar with ministry and prayer times and some people feel a bit concerned or nervous when they become aware of God working through the Holy Spirit. We need to help people who are receiving, to

feel comfortable and safe, and to encourage them to reach out to God. Always be sensitive and respectful, keep in mind how you would like to be prayed for, constantly ask for God’s help no matter how you are praying. Reassure those being prayed for that God has heard sincere prayers and the cries of our hearts and encourage them to expect answers. Speak healing, peace and release in the name of Jesus and remember the place of repentance, forgiveness and being forgiven.

Do not make appointments to pray with people outside of the meeting. If extra prayer or counselling is needed then find a member of the Enabling Team and explain the situation. You can also refer people to the ‘Chat Room’ on site where there will be people available to pray with them. It should also be encouraged that individuals should seek help from their home church where ministry can be continued.

If at any time you feel out of your depth then ask for help. The Enabling Team will be moving around the venue and wearing bright pink badges. We all find ourselves in situations that we can’t handle alone. This is not failure and it’s often good to pray with others, plus it’s a great way to learn more!

All these are tips to help you let God work through you.

REMEMBER: don’t worry. The Enabling Team and the person leading the meeting will be giving directions and advice. The important thing is that you are ready to pray for those around you.

SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A ProgrammePAGE 74 THINGS YOu SHOuLD KNOW

the postIf you’d like to experience the ancient art of snail mail, try sending something from the onsite post box (which is by the Main Gate ) then gasp in wonder to find out how your postcard reached home before you did. It’s impressive stuff and well worth a go just to say you’ve tried it.

And as if sending post wasn’t old school enough, you can also receive post on site – crazy eh?! If someone wants to send you something this is the info they will need:

Your name AND your delegate reference number (starting A2K11…) Information c/o Soul Survivor Staffordshire Showground Weston Road Stafford ST18 0BD

Any post received will be kept in the Info Office until you come and claim it, so check regularly if you’re expecting something.

CommunIonWe love to end the week together by sharing in Communion.

To do this we start the main meeting at 10am (instead of the usual 11am start).

There is non-alcoholic wine available as well as wheat/gluten free bread for those that need it (look out for directions from whoever is leading the meeting so you know which point to go to!)

lost propertyJesus told lots of stories about people losing things and going to great lengths to find them again. We’ve tried to make it easier on you lot by putting lots of lost things in one place so if you find you’re separated from your favourite Bible/jumper/rubber duck you can just pop along and see if it’s been handed in.

At the end of the event we will take valuable items (cameras, wallets, phones, jewellery) that haven’t been collected back to our office in Watford so give us a call there (0303 333 1333) if you don’t realise something is missing until you get home. Please note that our office will be shut during our other events and for the first few weeks in September (so we can catch up on some much needed sleep) but we will try and get you reunited with your lost property ASAP after that.

Less valuable items need to be claimed by the morning of August 3rd or they will be taken to a local charity shop, so have a good check you are leaving with everything you came with before you head home!

food vansThe secret to truly happy camping is having a happy stomach. If you are a Jamie Oliver-esque culinary genius* you’re sure to be whipping up a feast of char-grilled squid with rustic guacamole over your camping stove.

If you’re like the rest of us you’ll be burning some Smash and wondering if you can survive on Café Uno cake for five days.

To help keep your stomach happy we’ve invited the fairest food vans in all the land to come along and share their delights with you. Let hunger be a thing of the past as you tuck into a tasty sausage sarnie, demolish a delicious burger and fries or relish a crepe. Bon appetite and happy camping!

*If this is you, please pop into Information and invite us all over for breakfast, lunch or tea (we’re not fussed which). Thanks!

Cafes Need a pick-me-up? Whether you’re just looking for an afternoon treat, a spot of sugar to keep the munchies at bay or are in desperate need of a caffeine fix, the cafes are your one-stop shop for all the goodness you need.

Take your pick from Café Uno, Soul Action café, The Fringe or the ToolShed café.

supplIesRunning low on the essentials? Don’t worry, you can pick up an assortment of basic supplies on site, or nip down the road to the local shoppery:

out of gas? You need the Gas Man! Like all good super heroes he’s there in your hour of need (as long as your hour of need is between 2pm-6pm on Day 1 or 9am-10am, 12:30-2pm or 4:30-6pm on days 2, 3, 4 or 5). Unlike a superhero, he won’t be able to track you down, so pop along to see him outside the Info Office.

freezer paCksYou can exchange (for free) or buy (for £2) frozen ice packs for your cold storage between 9-9.30am and 4.30-5:00pm opposite Café Uno (at the side of the Main Meeting Venue).

onsIte shopYou know how you meant to be organised and pack everything you needed but got distracted by Neighbours instead? The shop is here to dig you out of that hole!

They sell tasty treats (including pick ‘n’ mix and amazing ice cream! YES!) as well as more practical items like fresh bread, milk, toothpaste and batteries.

The shop is open from 2:00pm on Day 1 and 7:00am-7:00pm Days 2-5. For those of you with a bunch of people to cater for you can pre-order milk, bread and other bits. Just pop in to make arrangements at the start of the week.

loCal shops & dIreCtIonsThere’s a whopping great Asda store in Stafford, just a few minutes drive from site which has pretty much everything you could ever need from a supermarket (including a cash point).

To get there just turn left out of the main gate and follow the signs to Stafford and before you know it, you’ll see the green signs appearing in front of you.

If you have a fancy phone that connects to the internet, you can place an order online with Asda and have them deliver it to you onsite! If you put your village (eg Red 2) on your order the delivery man will deliver direct to your tent, but please make sure you are about to meet him!

SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A ProgrammePAGE 78 HEALTH AND SAFETY

fIre regulatIonsWhen you love your neighbour, it’s tempting to set up your tents close together. But according to the clever people who know stuff about fire, you need to leave at least 3 metres between tents (if you have trouble with measurements try lying two shortish people end to end or ask your Village Host).

Also while we’re talking about fire, don’t forget that BBQ-ing inside a tent is a disaster waiting to happen, so DON’T DO IT! Please note that the use of generators is not permitted.

group Leaders: Please make sure you’ve completed the risk assessment form in your Group Leader Pack and make sure you follow the cooking with gas advice. Thanks!

HeAltH AnD sAFetY

sICknessSickness spreads quickly on a campsite. Do your bit by washing your hands often, especially before eating and letting us know of any broken or dirty facilities on site (pop in to Comms or the Info Office).

If anyone in your group falls ill* during the event then please keep them in their tent and contact the First Aid team. The First Aid Centre is clearly marked on the site map. In an emergency ring: 0303 333 1335.

*e.g. sudden fever (a high body temperature of over 38C or 100.4F), and sudden cough or any signs of diarrhoea and/or vomiting

the fIrst kInd of aIdWe hope you don’t need them but in case of medical issues during Soul Survivor we have a brilliant First Aid team ready and waiting to bandage your knee or soothe your brow.

You’ll find them in the First Aid Centre (by the Soul Action Cafe). They’ll be there from 9am – 7pm. Of course sickness doesn’t happen on a schedule so outside of these hours pop along to Comms and they will radio for medical help.

If you have an ongoing medical condition that may cause you problems during the event, it would be really helpful if you could pop in and let the First Aid team know when you arrive. They’ll also look after any medication you need to take on a daily basis.

PAGE 79SOuL SurvIvOr 2011: Week A Programme ETHICAL ISSuES

we’re doIng our bIt by: • Reducing the amount of paper we print on

• Ethically sourcing our t-shirts and hoodies

• Making sure all our tea, coffee and sugar on site is fairly-traded (and as much of other produce as we can source)

• Using biodegradable plates and cutlery in our cafes

• Placing recycling bins around site. And that’s where you come in...

etHicAl issues

we need your help:Please use the recycling points for glass, plastics, cans and paper. We’ve put them all over the site so you don’t have to travel far to find one. When you’re in your camping site you’ll find green bags for all your recycling at the waste pens.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE split out your waste and make sure we can recycle as much as possible. We need your help!

1. reCyCle unused food

Any non-perishable and unopened food you bring along to the Info Office on Day 5 will be donated to Wolverhampton Food Bank.

They are a local Christian charity who provide emergency food parcels to those in need. You get to take less stuff home, local people get blessed; everyone’s a winner!

2. don’t waste water

Take a quick shower when you can and don’t forget to turn taps off fully after use.

3. look after your patCh

It may just be a little patch of grass to you, but after you’ve left a whole host of insects and creatures would like to call it home so please take care of the area you’re camped in and make sure you dispose of all your rubbish.

4. re-use where possIble

Plastic plates and cutlery really cut down on waste (or try buying biodegradable ones if you really can’t stand the thought of the washing up).

we all need to do our bit to look after our lovely planet and the people on it!

12) No speeding. When arriving/

leaving the showground or

unloading/packing up please observe

the 10mph speed limit at all times.

any individual or group that uses Soul

Survivor and its facilities for such

purposes does so against the spirit

of the event. The organisers reserve

the right to cancel any such person

you think someone is trying to force

their views on you and others please

do let us know immediately (come to

situation.

some very pretty areas so please

be respectful of your surroundings

and make sure you don’t walk/run/

skateboard/dance/skip etc where

you’re not allowed to. (Areas are

clearly marked and should be fairly

obvious too!)

20) As you will have realised the car

park is on the other side of the road to

the showground. As this is a very busy

road and you are very special, please

make sure you use the underpass

when you cross to avoid any accidents.

Access to the underpass is via a ramp

but please don’t use your bike or

skateboard there.
