An interesting time at Swaythling!

The exhibition is going well and touching many individuals. We’ve not had hoards of people at a time, which has given those who are walking round time and space to absorb the messages of the paintings.

There is much healing going on and an abundance of tears as people are identifying circumstances in thier own lives with the images.

Some friends of ours, John and Theresa, have spent a lot of time in the kitchen providing wonderful lunches and sandwiches each day for those coming through the doors. Sharing meals together adds a special time for cementing relationships and making new ones.

One lady who came on the first day admitted that she had never set foot into a church before and that the atmosphere was wonderful, especially with so many people sharing food together. I must add that she has now been in every day, helping me to serve in many ways at the exhibiton. More than that the paintings are really challenging her in new ways.

The real blessing to me is having the opportunity to pray with so many people. So if you are in Southampton and want to spend some time in a place of peace I look forward to seeing you there.
