Courage Little Church

PCC tonight and a difficult one. A few months ago the deal which was going to deliver a new multipurpose community facility in one of my parishes fell through as a result of the downturn in the housing market.
It's so hard when you have glimpsed what might happen to settle for what can happen at least for now anyway.
The tremendous leadership shown by this little church, although they're tired will now have to raise their game. For now they have to keep believing in their vision in the face of facts and figures and "reality".
It's a narrow kind of reality we are working against. It's a reality that negates the possibility of God and it's a reality that negates the possibility of change.
It will take a bit longer, but we'll get there.
