ECG 2012 - 10-15 April Scarborough Spa



ECG  2012 - 10-15 April - Scarborough Spa

This year we are looking at the theme of 'Journey'.  I don't know about you but when I go on a journey I am always really excited about getting to the place I am going to and sometimes miss out on the journey itself.  This year at ECG we are going to take time to stop and reflect and to look around us at what God is doing in this moment in our lives and our communities - Taking time to listen, look, feel and experience the work and movement of the Spirit in the present age!  Jesus was clear about the tension we must hold between the destination of the Journey and taking time with the people along the way.  The journey has a conclusion - heaven, but the journey towards can be an exciting and vibrant one.  Together lets be refilled, refuelled and reenergised for the journey God has called us to.

April message from the Ministry Team
