Niamh has been moved up in gymnastics

Niamh has been moved up to the next squad in gymnastics. Their training is 9 and a half hours a week, 2 hours more than she does at the moment. We have been quite happy for Niamh to stay in the squad she is in, and expected her to stay for another year, but she has been moved up sooner than we expected. The one problem we knew we had to face was that their biggest training session is on a Sunday morning. Niamh is really excited about being chosen, but of course we know the Lord's will is not for her to do sport on a Sunday. It has been a precious time of spiritual learning for Niamh as she realizes that she needs to put the Lord first in her life, and that all these things are in His plan, and He knows all the details. We have told them that Niamh cannot train on a Sunday, and we will see if they are willing to make a plan for her to train on another day, perhaps she can do a 2 hour private session with one of the trainers which should make up for the time she loses on a Sunday, the only problem being when she has to train in a group for the displays. Well done Niamh, we are excited to see what the Lord has planned for you!
