visitation

A Bishop’s visitation shortly after ordination does seem a little over the top, but one cannot choose when they happen!!
We actually had a reasonably interesting day walking from Llanasa to St. Asaph with Deanery clergy, the Bishop, Dean and a few others.
It was good to see a bit of Wales without a car, we saw such a different view strolling down tiny country lanes occasionally being able to see distant mountains or Cathedrals. Walking doesn’t seem to be a big part of the job so far… I did try cycling down to the church last Sunday, however it was the hill on the way back up which was the killer.
Perhaps I will drive next week!

  • Nurture and Nature

    Spending a day with a compulsive liar, thief and violent young man is not everyone’s idea of a good day. Nor was it mine! Yet I find it hard to condemn the man when he has increasingly shown in short moments that nature which, properly nurtured, would be welcomed in the best of humans. He is at times polite, gentile and charming. Yet it is ironic that the majority of society would find him a thug. Perhaps I am of such a disposition to approve of this young man, or perhaps he is no worse than the rest of society, just, that the vast majority of people understand appropriate behaviour given the circumstances they are in.
