Refreshment

Fantastic experience at the Methodist Youth and Lay Employees Conference.
Met some great people and shared some fascinating stories. I was privileged to hear Barbara Glasson who led the bible study on the parable of the sower. There was a really good session on "with Integrity" by Helen Cameron.
Martyn Atkins inspired with discipleship challenges.
Worship was thoughtful
Overall it was good work, good fellowship and good worship.
I still am struggling to come to terms with the absolute privilege of being able to worship as part of my working day. Life is great.

Dissertation Progress

The first stage of my dissertation is being reviewed by my supervisor. I have managed to get 60 references into the 2000 words to provide some indication of what sort of reading I have undertaken. The process is uncomfortable but I feel I have really found out the scope of the challenge.
I am certain that I will have significant re-work to do (based on experience) but I am really getting a feel for Wesley and Leadership in the Church.
One more step along the road....
