    Cheers Kelvin,
    it was great fun – even if we didn’t do the great cup cake bake-off or the manual wheelchair race up Gilmorehill to the Uni Library that I suggested :-). As so many students have expressed disappointment at no further action on the issues we raised, I’m considering standing for Education VP in the SRC elections.
    Meanwhile, for I’m looking forward to the inclusive Christian spirituality retreat we’re running in March (10th-12th) on the lovely Isle of Cumbrae for gay and bisexual men: http://retreat.maniple.co.uk/ (some places still available).

    It might turn out to be for the best for your future – Gordon Brown was a working rector and look how it turned out for him! Well done on being an honourable second.

  • Sermon – 16 July 2006

    Two dancers. Different stories. We are invited to consider this morning David dancing the ark of the covenant from one place to another. And Salome shimmying around Herod’s party and catching his eye with such disastrous consequences for John the Baptizer. Two dancers. Two very different stories.
