All Saints Southend today, to meet up with folks who are keen to work more closely with their local schools. So for me, new people and a new place, one of the most deprived areas in the Diocese and full of life, full of hope, full of enthusiasm. So we talked about what might be, and how to get there. Afterwards I was given a tour of the inside & outside, including a work-in-progress, a huge labyrinth taking shape in the churchyard, this'll be a great gift for their community.
