Let me begin by wishing you all a very Happy New Year! 16 days and one conference later, I am grabbing a quick coffee before heading down to Ayr for the first MTN meeting in 2012!
Last week was spent at Gartmore House for my second of four Probationers Conferences. Based on the theme of Exploring Mission, I think I speak for most if not all those there when I say that we not only shared a lovely four days of fellowship, but we left with a lot to reflect upon as has been the case for the entire conference programme so far.
From Working with Volunteers to Using Multimedia in Worship, from Mission to Psychology, we had a very busy four days, which I for one enjoyed immensely. With a great Chaplain, good food and a beautiful log fire to look forward to at the end of the evening (which I fell asleep beside on the last evening!), I am looking forward to concluding my Probationer Programme there in the Summer.
I am off to Calvin College in eight days time for their annual Worship Symposium, where I hope to have time to maintain my blog when I am away, so I will close this entry before I start waffling!
