Rydal Waters

We went on the walk around Rydal waters, and to the cave - three of us. It was a beautiful day, the sun shone and the hills and lakes looked at their very best. The topic of our walk was moving on, with a good friend within the group moving a couple of days later. We reflected on Jesus moving on - his itenerent ministry.

It was a walk with an ending. The Walking Church will need to regroup now, and plans are already on their way, with new people interested. A new format will be developed with a reading/ focus at the beginning of the walk, and reflection at the end. The walking church is looking to become part of other networks of emerging churches in the area, including a church at Costa's in Bowness.

Commenting on a post more than three years after the fact might seem a little late in the day but I want to pass on my appreciation to Brec for this early work around 'walking church'. This is a concept with huge potential for mission and discipleship. Three years on we're just beginning to see signs that the idea could 'catch on'.
