Obviously I have more time on a Monday morning, but this Monday is a little different. It’s the Queen’s Birthday holiday and that means the whole family is home – something I am not used to on a Monday!
Open was on last night at High Street UC and we had quite a crowd for us. [...]
Monday mornings are my time to take it easy, to start a little more slowly than the rest of the week – or at least most of the time!
I’ve spent this morning reading the blog of someone whom I treasure having an acquaintance with. She is a great and beautiful person, but also a wonderful [...]
Well here I am, sitting in Perth airport awaiting my flight back home to Melbourne.
I’ve had a great weekend catching up with the First Third Ministry team in WA. Saturday, apart from a very early 3.30am start, involved attending a conference on First Third Ministry, hearing how it’s working and how it’s supposed to be [...]
This weekend a group of us are heading up to Maryborough to help a rural family with flood clean up. Our connections are through the local Uniting church and minister and we look forward to being helpful as well as sharing the company and the country hospitality.
Hope to do a couple more trips during the [...]
A friend of mine jumped onto my site recently and asked me about theSkinny. It made me realised that I need to put more stuff and keep changing it – sorry.

Then February [...]

Early in July a large number of Uni students, chaplains, and other interested people gather for the School of Discipleship. We meet in Canberra and share 3 or 4 days of study, reflection, social gatherings and usually a public liturgy somewhere in the city.
This year the School of Discipleship (or SOD as it is more [...]
For the last 5 or so weeks Wednesday mornings have begun a little earlier than usual for me. I arrive at the Uni around 7.30am, open up our building and start getting ready to serve pancakes to a group of around 100 students and staff.
We are developing a ‘regular’ clientele and it’s great to [...]
On the last Friday of April a group of 10 young people (plus some parents) headed up to Oakleigh to test our skills at Go-Cart racing. The competition was fast and furious with Tian being the fastest around the track, and his dad William following closely not wanting to be beaten. Now that we know [...]
