Done and Dusted
The National Gathering has now just moved on a stage, to texting and emailing folk who met and ate and talked and connected. I think it was a very good weekend. It was a real positive illustration of the church and just a tiny bit of it. Still there are a number of ministers who haven't told their congregations about it. These gatekeepers should be sacked! Scared God's own People get an idea of their own?
Anyway, we had a good lot of fun. Not everything is ever going to be your cup of tea but it does show the breadth of the church and that there are a LOT of folk who get life from the church.
So what stories do you have to tell, those who were there?
What ideas did you pick up and want to explore a bit?
What speakers, worship moments, PrayerZone spaces, tents, people spoke most to you?
Got some pictures here from Tom. There will be more later.
It's a bit of a bummer to get back to a normal week, especially one with both Presbytery and Session & Board in it. Back to earth with a bang. Hopefully we'll still believe was is possible in the church and not get ground down.
Wonderful pics Roddy.

PS - When does that degree course in delinquency start? Am I too late to join? Can I go for a lifetime achievement award?
