In an earlier posts I had mentioned that I was part of a group trying to reconstruct church in some way.
Well, we just had our first get together and in many ways it was completely unremarkable. To the onlooker it might have just looked like a family get together in the park, with some bread and wine and remembering what someone we loved dearly (Jesus) was like as we broke bread and drank wine in remembrance of him. This really felt like we had really started church from scratch even communion (the centre piece of the meeting) felt new and one attendee commented that it was something that should be really easy but it felt like we were first timers wobbling along as we rode the communion bike. The gathering was simple and unremarkable yet I am excited about the potential it has to become a central and important part of my spiritual journey.
