It's #WorldDownSyndromeDay And #WorldPuppetryDay today, so Theo the Pondering Platypus and I are celebrating both! Theo may have gone a little over the top with the socks though!
Here's another "Prayer on the Run" for the @A_N_All stand at the @HiHConference You can have one of these, or one of the others we will have on the stand....or just have a zip to fiddle with (which will also help you listen to all the wonderful seminars & workshops!)
Please note:
We have a new section in our 'Prayers on a Theme' menu! It's called 'Christian Living'. This is one of the prayers from the new section - using coins to talk to God about making good choices. ponderingplatypusresources.com/show-me-what-t…
Another prayer activity for you: Always wear your Invisible crown! (This is a longer version of the one in the 'quick ones' section of the website.) ponderingplatypusresources.com/wear-your-invi…
Theo's looking forward to being there too!
We've been away for our hols - 2 weeks on the norfolk coast & it was Bliss! But now it's time to get back into work.... Team Platypus now has a very busy couple of months ahead & lots of prep to do, so we would really appreciate your prayers for wisdom, clarity & being organised.
Always wear your invisible crown! This is a prayer activity from our 'Quick Ones' section: ponderingplatypusresources.com/wear-your-crow…
Use a zip to pray for friends who have fallen out: ponderingplatypusresources.com/zipprayers
From a good friend of Team Platypus and worth a read with your beverage of choice!

With so many people & organisations asking what it means to be human, it made me wonder what it means to be human & disabled. I haven't found a fancy theologic answer to that, but there's a lot out there that makes disabled people feel less than human. theponderingplatypus.com/disability-hum…
At Team Platypus, we think we need this activity ourselves today! Took an hour to book train tickets & assistance. Thankfully quicker than the 3hrs it's taken in the past. Feeling stressed today too? Grab some bubble wrap & then head over to the website: ponderingplatypusresources.com/feeling-stress…
The Additional Needs Alliance is 10 today!!! Little did @KayMorgan_Gurr & @Mark_J_Arnold know that it would become such an amazing space in that time. Huge thanks to the core team for all they do to support us & the Facebook group. Here's to the next ten years 😁
My interview With the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association 😁 (For My UK friends - It's American). Please do share it around! @KayMorgan_Gurr was heartbroken by how churches treated children with disabilities. billygraham.org/?p=271644&shar…
We've been busy pondering, & created a new set of prayers! Quick prayers for those who are too tired to think, have foggy brains or just can't sit still. There's just a few on there at the moment, but many more on the way Go and have a dig around! ponderingplatypusresources.com/Quick-Prayers

Disability is a gospel issue. Read more here about some of those impacted by current church culture #DAD2022 #disabilityawareness naydawson.com/2022/07/11/sto…

@TheoThePlatypus @KayMorgan_Gurr This looks great and, when I tried it, I won £57 off the children. 😜 Seriously though, this is a great idea.
@TheoThePlatypus Have a great first day at work Theo! 😀
My lovely hair dresser rang this morning & asked if I would like to bring my appointment forward by a week.... That would be a yes! #ItsTheSmallThings 😁 Especially thankful as I'd set aside time in Nov to record stuff for @TheoThePlatypus and I look like a silver #yeti.
