As a community, we have always sought to be inclusive in the way we conduct our affairs, encouraging all voices to be heard, and perspectives to be honoured, as we work together to build, sustain, adapt, and evolve our faith movement…

We have just celebrated another Mothers’ Day. Each year I remember my own mother. Winifred was a wonderful inspiration to me, academically, socially and theologically. She died of cancer two decades ago at the age I am rapidly approaching.

Did the Easter weekend change you?  As we had a few days off to remember and celebrate the facts of Jesus’ death and resurrection, did these days make an impact on your life?  Many people take Easter as a chance to have that last swim before the cooler autumn months or to head off camping or to catch up with old friends. Has Easter just become another holiday for us to enjoy?…

Each year as Holy Week approaches, I feel a sense of foreboding come over me. The events in the gospels are familiar, following a similar rhythm and narrative each year.
