Just a quick look at the place my team and I are staying- All Saints Woodford Wells, in northeast London. The church has both a rich heritage (as evidenced by the historic building) and a missional outlook (as evidenced in the new Annex which serves and engages the diverse community of Woodford). The building is obviously just the setting for the church itself though, the church being the hospitable and passionate people that have welcomed us in wholeheartedly. They have been such a blessing and its a real joy to be partnering with a church fellowship so committed to seeing their parishioners mature in faith and their neighborhood engaged with the gospel. But more on the lovely folk of All Saints later. This is just a quick update to give you a picture of where we are at- the backdrop of our base camp for the summer here in northeast London.
We are staying in the aforementioned Annex (which is the brick structure toward the back of this bottom photo) which is so new it still smells of paint. So blessed to have this space- it even has a small kitchen where we can self cater- helping our food budget enormously! Praise the Lord!
