St. Peter's Day - Another Busy One
A really busy day today without a moment's rest. Up early today and drove over to Whaddon to attend Morning Prayer and afterwards breakfast with the clergy team. Following this I attended the Mid-Week Eucharist which was also attended by the Worship Committee (consisting of pupils aged about 10) of Alderbury School. For many this was their first attendance at a Eucharistic service and they were given pieces of paper with a list of things to look out for during the Eucharistic Prayer. It thought it was well thought out by Elizabeth, who took the service. I read an extract from Acts from the Good News bible about Peter's release from prison which we thought would be a good story for the children. After the Eucharist I drove up to Leatherhead to attend a meeting with a client to try and reach an agreement over an employment dispute. The drive up was quite uneventful until I got to Hindhead where I thought the new tunnel through the Devil's Punch Bowl had been opened. Although it has been completed it is not yet open to traffic and I had to crawl through Hindhead. I arrived early in Leatherhead and bought myself a sandwich and a drink at Tesco's. The meeting was not a complete success as no agreement was reached although some progress was made. The parties are still too far apart for a financial settlement. I managed to get back to Winterslow in good time for Sessino 8 of the Lay Worship Leaders' training course. Tonight, Jane Charman led the session on "talking .v preaching" and it appears that as LWLs we will have quite a bit of freedom during the "talking slot". I also registered this evening for Moodle to enable me to access the educational resources on line for the LLM training. Richard and I ended the evening chatting in the Lion's Head over a couple of pints of beer.
