oxford centre for youth ministry and cms are hosting a two day conference in oxford on sacred spaces in public places – see details and book here
the blurb…
This two day non-residential conference will explore 3 strands
- Recognising the sacred in the seemingly secular places – where are God's fingerprints in the world around us?
- Creating a sacred space in public place – artistic visual expression of God's presence
- Being aware that we may be the sacred space in the public place – looking at our inner space, an incarnational engagement with the world.
Day 1: Theological and theoretcial input with workshops from our contributors on our threes trands of sacred space
Day 2: Putting our learning into action! Creating sacred spaces in public places in Oxford
‘Creating sacred spaces in pubic places’…..I’m not quite sure that’s what you meant but it made me laugh and then wonder what the good people of Oxford would think….
hilarious! thanks for pointing it out – now changed sadly 🙂
just realized that we have been engaged in the reverse, recognizing/creating public places in sacred space, fluidity between cathedral and piazza
