Great article Nick - I think we have to accept that the church of the future will be very different than the church of today and that change has to start now. That's not to say it will be better - just different! I especially like the typo in the title that refers to the "mission generation" - mainly because that is surely the task - to turn the missing generation into the mission generation?

(And I acknowledge that sounds a bit naff!)

Maybe something for us to explore? http://www.methodist.org.uk/news-and-events/news-releases/is-your-church-as-welcoming-as-you-think?noredirect=1#noredirect

My first impression of Wisewood was of Russell proudly showing us around the whole building (and impressive kitchen) and Dorothy insisting on us driving with her to the old folks home to sing carols and then to Howard and Joan's for some food! As abductions go it was pretty welcoming but then we were used to church and I think that was obvious - perhaps it might have been too full on for some but I suspect it was just what we needed :-)

There is an official opening of the pitches on the 8th June. We will be something crafty for kids and Riva Project are doing refreshments and need donations of cakes etc (see post below) so put it in your diaries.

Thanks to everyone who came last night, to James, Stuart and Noel for the fabulous "coin cookies" they made, to Harry for fetching us fish and chips and to everyone else for the discussion time we shared. If anyone is interested Wesley's sermon on money in modern language I got from this website: http://theconnexion.net/wp/?p=2873#axzz2Re2cKuTT
