A Growing Vision.
The Jesus Army Charitable Trust which sets up and runs Jesus Centres has a vision to open more centres as funding and capacity allows. Pauline and I we privileged to make a trip up to Sheffield on last Friday and Saturday to share a bit of our experience. On the Friday Pauline held a Fund-raising Workshop which was surprisingly well attended, considering fund-raising is not the most popular subject, with lots of thoughtful contributions from those taking part. It was really encouraging to hear how much has been raised in grants for energy saving features in the refurbishment.
On Saturday morning we were able to share on how the Jesus Centre is playing a major part in the life of the Jesus Fellowship in London. Despite the challenges of making a big project succeed and the strain that inevitably puts on the committed members, the benefits are massive as a centre expands the ministry of the church throughout the week reaching a wider range of people and providing new opportunities for involvement.
We had the opportunity for a quick look round the building and it struck me that if you made a shopping list for what is needed you would come up with the building that God has provided.
It was great to see what is happening in Sheffield and I am sure it's going to be an amazing fourth Jesus Centre.
Plans are well on the way for Number 5 in Birmingham. Praise God for growth!

Mysteries.
I must admit (and I think I may have mentioned this before) that I am not the most IT literate person around but I am puzzled. I recently posted two videos in my journal series by pressing the one touch You Tube upload option of the idiot proof soft ware that comes with the idiot proof camera. Where are they now?
There was a brief introduction to the 'Meet the Staff' episode and a riveting think piece set in Regent's Park about the impact of the discovery of Black Swans and its impact on western thought.
If you see these floating about in cyberspace please let me know.
