Spanish Donna

Donna
We had our fist continental meal, Spanish Donner kebab which is just like the English variety. Which has lead me to begin to peal away the false layer of perfection my travelling companion seems to have of me. I am more than aware the effect s a Donna can have on my exhaust system, which leads me to a story. I told my companion as a warning the time Erin and I were in bed we had done our bit of reading turned off the lights and travelled towards sleep. One of us said to the other “can you smell that?” feeling sleep was more important than the smell we ignored until the smell became a bit worrying. one of us said “did you turn the gas off? “ Well you have to get up to that don’t you. I went and made some investigations in the kitchen came back with the all clear. Except the smell of gas was still in the bedroom Erin came to the conclusion I was the source of the smell. I think we will leave the window open tonight after Compline just in case.

    Beware - i feel it is only fair to warn you that your travel companion may yet be able to match you in the exhaust system stakes.....Open all windows... !

Response To Bishop North

A while back Bishop Phillip North spoke to New Wine and caused a bit of a reaction one of it was a Tweet to my millions of followers. In response I had a phone call from The Church Times asking for a quote because I serve in a poor parish, I declined and said I would put a more considered response on my blog, so here it is with a link to The Bishops full talk. https://www.churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2017/4-august/news/uk/there-s-a-future-for-the-church-if-evangelicals-put-the-poor-first-bishop-north-tells-new-wine 1.      One of the issues the church does not recognise is the exportation of people , talents and money from parishes like mine to middle class parishes which is draining and demanding on leadership. For 10 years I thought I was building a community, then it dawned on me I was building people up to go to other places. 2.      Bishop Phillip talks of abandonment of the poor: I think it’s more complicated than that.

YWAM Nensa

Mercy Air trip to  YWAM  Nen s a ,  Mozambique The  first mission trip of our  ‘ new normal ’   in South Africa  happened last week.   Azarja , our pilot, flew the team ;  which included Bruce, Stephen, Erin and Nigel  in the Cessna 310. We traveled from Mercy Air; to Kruger International (to exit SA); to Beira (to enter Mozambique); then on to Marromeu (12 hours total, including long waits for permits and visas – This is Africa!)   The drive by car ( in a  4x4) would take about 3 days on some very difficult ,  non-tarmac roads.  Allison and Leanna  drove  the final  1  1/2  hours  from Marromeu  to the YWAM base  at  Nensa .  As a rookie African  M ission ary,  I did  initially   feel a bit like Michel Palin without the film crew. The common red sand  road,  so   many people walking into the dark , headlamp beams throwing themsel...
