This afternoon see’s one of the reports that I’ve been most looking forward too this week. The Report of the World Mission Council. I’ve been interested in the work of this council since I first became aware of its existence in 2000. I suppose it all boils down to the fact that, when I was … Continue reading

A bit of a mixed day…
Today was an interesting day. I’ve spent most of the day holed up in my bedroom trying to drink and sleep enough to feel better – it wasn’t the most pleasant night I’ve ever had! I’ll be making an effort to avoid Buffalo Momo in the future – although I’ll still be having vegetable Momo!!! … Continue reading
