Just finished stacking the dishwasher with the mugs from Meet The Neighbours this morning at the Arc Apartments – a perfect picture of a really great day! Each mug represents one more neighbour introduced to new friends, new contacts; one more new resident in the Titanic Quarter starting to feel part of a community. Yet again it was just such fun meeting a fantastic bunch of people – the apartments are filling up fast, and are becoming home to a brilliant, cheerful, friendly mix of people. They are also wonderfully diverse – we met people from just over the road, and from the other side of the world.
Talking of the other side of the world (-ish), one of our ‘international contacts’ from the world of Dock is paying a visit to the Dock Walk tomorrow. You might remember Bishop Moses from Sudan, who joined us last Summer and kick-started a fantastic conversation about some of the ways that Sudan and Northern Ireland can learn from each other. Moses is back with us tomorrow afternoon, as is a group of American visitors based at Woodvale Methodist – along with the usual mix of welcoming faces gathering at the Odyssey Streat at 3:33pm. See you there!
