Presenting the Sheep of SOM 2010!

The School of Missions TWENTY 10 opened on Sunday 14 February with the celebration of the Eucharist by our Archbishop John Dew.

The theme of this year's school is taken from John 10:27

(thaaaanks Mely & Ju for the beautiful banners!)


During offertory, the participants each offered a sheep and placed them on the pastures, symbolising their decision to follow Jesus their Good Shepherd as He leads them through the School...
Maizy: here I am!
(We are so glad you are here too Maizy!)

Yesterday we had a workshop where the participants personalised their sheep. Each week they will deposit into the sheep their reflections of the week past and the truths they have received. 

Presenting the Lord's sheep, each called by name, each uniquely designed, each wonderfully loved....
