We had a wonderful, bonding, challenging time at our Residential Conference venued at High Leigh Conference Centre in Hoddesdon, Herts.
‘The Courage to Change’
We learned about seeing the world, ourselves and our lifestyles differently. We were challenged by the hypothesis that we are living off our children’s inheritance, and the need to be more inclusive with our theology. We learned that organisations are not machines; if we expect them to behave as such, we are bound to fail in our projects. We learned that emotional damage can happen in infancy and were given hints on how to recognise such and make the allowances and offer the forgiveness that we all need.
More in our January 2009 issue of Way of Life.
Meanwhile, our next big project is our Day on Healing at Bury St Edmund’s Cathedral on 24 April 2010.

It is in all our interests to learn how to cherish and nurture this fundamental relationship.
