Another very special day. I spent the morning at The Anglican Communion Office, being introduced to their work and the work of those who inhabit the office space. Michael Hartfield, National Director of Anglican Missions NZ, and his colleague Mark Mitchell are held in extremely high regard.
Thanks to the brilliant work of Caroline Thompson and Grace Barlow, I had a time with the Rt Revd Anthony Poggo, The Secretary General of the Anglican Communion. Whilst our discussion was wide-reaching the focus was on – where are things working well and not so well in the Anglican Communion and why, and what can we be praying for from Greater Hastings. More to be shared on that in my report.
Then it was time for mid-week Communion. I was lucky to have a day when many people from all parts of the Communion were present. A superbly simple Eucharist led by the Rt Revd Jo Bailey Wells, Bishop for Episcopal Ministry in the Anglican Communion. It was a God-given time to reflect more on ministry and Jacob wrestling with God.
I have also deeply valued these times of prayer. … See MoreSee Less

I enjoyed St Martin’s. More great photos.
A very special and a deeply spiritual day!
Special – We had a personal tour of Lambeth Palace, the home and office of the Archbishop of Canterbury, hosted by Sammy Wainaina.
Spiritual – following the tour I was given time to reflect and prayer in the Crypt Chapel, before sharing in 12.30pm Eucharist in the Lambeth Chapel.
Today gave me space to prayerfully contemplate God’s call to ministry. … See MoreSee Less

Can you remember the sermon?
This morning we worshipped in the local church.
A lovely service. They worship at 9am and 11am.
What inspired us was the use of church space for community 7 days a week. The coffee cart and soft serve icecream, and the study space in the Community Centre. Great use of facilities in the community. … See MoreSee Less
