I've just got back from a one and a half hour round trip for a one and a half hour meeting. It was hard especially as I am not listening to the radio in the car but great for a very long chat with God. It bothers me a bit that I talk to God more frequently and for a longer time when I have nothing else to do. I hope I don’t treat God like the friend of last resort.
The meeting was for some of the Canons of the Cathedral to try and work out how we can raise a million pounds. It’s a long story but it was funniest when we ended up talking about whether we should get people to sponsor chairs or we should issues shares. It became a serious debate about shares or chairs!
It reminds me of when we first brought the idea of a “bring and share lunch” to Mytholmroyd. One lady said she didn’t know if she had a chair that she could carry to church!
