this saturday grace is called vox. should be fun – 8pm st marys. the grace web site has been revamped. it may not look that much different but it is shifting to reflect one of our ethos values – participation. the site is such now that any members can edit the content of the site (wiki style). rather than wait for the finished thing, it’s been put up as it is. things like the archive will be added to by anyone in grace who has bits of info or remembers what we have done over the years. anyway it’s a new approach which will suit us well once we all get our heads round how it works.
vox is one of a series of three services through the year on speaking, listening and seeing…
Just occasionally someone stands up and says something the whole
world takes notice of. Think of those like Luther King and Winston
Churchill – what made their words so powerful?Now think of your words. Are they lost in a chattering world? What
do you want to say? How do you want to say it? Is there anything
stopping you?A service of reflection on the human and divine voice. VOX.
Wish I could be there.

Words are indeed powerful.
