Today was the end of an era, we had the last service before alteration to the church building I worship in. For the next few months we will be worshipping in a community hall. As storage space is an issue someone had the great idea of giving us our hymn books in a reuseable cotton bag with the church name on today, the idea being we take them away and just bring them to church with us. There will of course be a few spares about, but mainly we are responsible for them.
The service marking the end also marked the beginning of another stage in the journey. This was for many on an individual basis, aswell as corporate. There was a baptism/confirmation, confirmation, transfer of membership from a UK Methodist church, coming into joint membership with a US church and extension of membership to be both Anglican and Methodist. It was all v. cool and quite moving aswell as v. hopeful.
