The best bit for me was going round seeing what other congregations are doing and speaking to each other! I found the weekend very encouraging and inspiring. There was so much to see and do: seminars, worship times, a resources exhibition and lots of activities for the youngsters(both of which I didn't experience!)and about 12o tents to visit. I also visited the Mission Aviation Fellowship Trailer and was very impressed by what they do, flying aid out to the remote places all over the world and thereby supporting a huge number and variety of charities.A very worthwhile cause to support. Having a tent was also a great opportunity to meet people and the idea that the tents are being used to help others is brilliant! Does anyone know how many people attended? Has there been any mention of it in the papers or on the TV? Yes,it was a wonderful weekend with so much on offer.

A lot of hard work went into this weekend. I particularly valued the all-age open air Agape held on the Sunday evening - and of course Stuart Townend leading the worship. My hope is that it will enspire and encourage the folk of the church to really be a "Church Without Walls"! I hear that they are looking for sponsors for the remaining tents (quite a lot) at £50 each - to go for emergency relief work! Any takers - see the CWW Web site. Yes, it was very impressive.
