  • Rumi

    Strange that I should be reading from a Islamic Mystic at this time. Seriously though, we (those of us who do care how our fellow travellers are treated) should all read a bit of Islamic material – beats a lot of the the trashy Christian stuff I get to read. Not sure what it is…

  • Bruderhof

    I’m sure there have been loads of these around for a while, but this one ( http://dailydig.bruderhof.org ) is really worthwhile. A little gem in your inbox each morning. Today’s ‘Dig’ was this… Think what the world could look like if we took care of the poor even half as well as we do our…

  • School !!

    Doesn’t it feel great when you can seriously say you have given something your best shot and been victorious. Last Friday I gave the Cardiff council’s schools service a shock to the system. Their dealing of our application for schools was ridiculous in the extreme and so the appeal committee ruled in our favour commenting…

  • A week of Fun and Games!

    I’m sure balloon modeling will come in useful at some point while ordained, but even if not, it keeps the kids happy. That’s what I’ve been doing for the past week. Our eldest daughter’s birthday was on Sunday, usual party etc, bouncy castle etc. Oh can you make balloon models she says, yeah course I…

  • Out with the old

    It is never as strange as you might seem leaving a place of work and then going back to it the very next week to continue what you were supposed to leave. Everyone says goodbye, you get the card and (actually a very nice bottle of whisky) and off you toddle. Strange then when you…

  • First Blog

    Well, this is where it all begins. The house is found, a school is not, but will be organised soon, the college is waiting for arrival…. and still we have to sell our house and move. So much to do and so little time, I should also be going to Iona and Camas this summer,…

  • A Rocha

A Rocha is now a family of projects working in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, North and South America, Asia and Australasia. A Rocha projects are frequently…

  • The Cardiff Bay Lightship

    In 1988 the churches in Cardiff were called together by the Cardiff Bay Development Corporation to discuss the role of Christianity in the bay area. The churches were seen as playing an important part in the community and should be involved at the very hub of the new developments. To this end Helwick LV14 was…

  • The Corrymeela Community

    Founded in 1965 Corrymeela’s objective has always been, and continues to be, promoting reconciliation and peace-building through the healing of social, religious and political divisions in Northern Ireland.
