This has been a week. In amongst all the good, “ordinary” local things in Brandwood and in Birmingham, some wonderful travelling.
A trip to south London to work with the folk at the Church Plant at Ackroydon Hall on the estate in Southfields. A great time exploring the possibilities of Jesus Shaped People together, and for me some deep learning about other communities, other estates, other churches. And beer. And food.
Some time off in Rochdale with Mark and Wendy. A couple of walks in the South Pennines
and time reflecting together on ministry, faith and life.
And then this morning to London again.
a visit first to Haringey to the Bernie Grant Arts Centre for the Churches Together Pentecost Service
and then to the very special Church on the Farm on Broadwater Farm to preach, to learn about this Church and its work and presence on this estate, to experience such vibrancy and love, and followed by the best goat and rice and chicken I have had the pleasure to eat.
Time now to catch up with myself and to reflect and pray properly on all this.
