CW77: The Tent and the Tree

The seed for this ministry was sown in me as I sat listening to Liz Ogborne speak at the 2016 Germinate Conference.

Liz was talking about Prayer Spaces in Schools (prayerspacesinschools.com), where they encouraged pupils to write a prayer on a cut-out of their hand and hang it on a tree as a way of praying. As Liz was talking I was grabbed by the idea and began to think how it might come to life where I live and minister. Vyrnwy Mission Area is in Powys, mid-Wales, consists of seven rural communities, their churches, people and outlying properties, and stretches from the village of Llansantffraid-yn-Mechain, close to the border with England in the east, to the community of Llanwddyn and Lake Vyrnwy in the west.
