The Place to Be & Meet Together

In ghostly death cave

tidied away to be forgot 

Dry and dusty lashes flutter next to a roughly hewn shroud
Stone cold bed of rest beneath a tender bruised and battered back
Velvet darkness enfolds the resting son
Sacred audiology echos about the cold stone womb

The spirit sweeps across him
She hovers above a diamond tear drops to his silent chest
Her breath invades his sleeping form
She roars her life giving force through silently held pathways of life
Rips through the darkened dusty passages of death
A sharp intake of breath revives the encapsulated form

The East Midland Baptist Association (EMBA) is pleased to announce that it's been able to offer the post of Regional Minister to Ellen Price and to Steve Price; Ellen to be the full time stipendiary RM and Steve to be part time non-stipendiary. Ellen is currently minister of Oadby Baptist and Steve (her husband) has been highly involved moderating in our churches, preaching, doing some conflict resolution. He was formerly Human Resources Director for Barclays Kenya and so comes with a high level of expertise and administrative competence but more importantly a heart for God’s Kingdom and for mission.

The EMBA will be sorting out how responsibilities will be arranged amongst the EMBA staff in the weeks ahead but as Mike is on sabbatical from April to June, it may not settle the routine roles until later in the year. Please pray also for Oadby Baptist as they face their minister moving on and the need to consider their future.
