[56.1] POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE

The 2004-5 BBH Future Church Conference meets at High Leigh on Wedsnesday and Thursday of this week, preceded tomorrow by the Building Bridges of Hope project's four nations coordinating group. Once again it will be an extraordinary cross-section (some 65 in number) of people from different Christian traditions across Britain and Ireland.

BBH consultant Terry Tennens, whose contract has been extended by the ecumenical Churches' Commission on Mission to March 2006, says: "This promises to be an exciting event. There has eer been a more challenging time for Christian mission and ministry."

Material from the conference will be streamed on to this weblog.

The theme of the gathering is 'sharing faith and values in a post-Christendom setting'. Among the speakers are Stuart Murray-Williams of the Anabaptist Network, Helen Cameron (Salvation Army) and Anne Richards, mission theology adviser to the Archbishops' Council of the Church of England (Unit on Mission and Public Affairs).
