Catch Up !

Things have been pretty busy since I wrote my last post. Being busy has included my visit to London to talk to the joint army navy and air force Chaplains about a proposed CWW Tattoo. Now how brilliant would that be? Anyway its under discussion. Moving on, we had a great evening last Friday at the Ceilidh here in Bo'ness. I think we raised over £900.00 for our church partners in India. Saturday was a chance to catch up with Ian Ferguson who has just completed his 25 years of ministry at Westhill Aberdeen. Sunday was an interesting evening. it was the last of our "On the Street" services. It turned out to be quite a powerful service. It was even mentioned at the Session Monday night by two elders, who expressed their appreciation for the content of the service. I found that really heartening, because i enjoy putting these services together but the time involved is disproportionate to those who attend. Anyway I'll try and find some clips to post about this service in next few days. The "Hustings" turned out to be a valuable exercise, it certainly clarified for me the person who should get my vote. As usual our techy team did a great job, as did Aileen and Rae in setting up the church for the event. It looked really good. Meanwhile today I've been trying to sign up a few people to take a table at the Vine Trust's fund raiser in the Inchyra on the 17th May. I'm looking forward to having Paul Clark share a bit about the vision of partnership that exists between Union Biblica and the Vine Trust. It will also be great to catch up with Tom Morton the BBC presenter and DJ again. Tom is going to be our MC for the evening. I haven't touched base with Tom for many years. Believe it or not we once played together in a band for a short time and he tipped Martha and me off about our first flat. we ended up living below Tom for a year or two. Tomorrow will be a make or break day for many a politician. One thing that is really important everyone needs to use their right to vote.
