You might’ve noticed that this blog has been a bit quiet for a few days… \u00a0Taking a little bit of time out to grieve with my (much) better half Susan and her family on the death of her brother Stephen, a gent if ever there was one, and a great loss.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0455\"<\/a>Just a quick post today to say my heartfelt and profound thanks to the Dock community, who gathered round, prayed, supported and loved us through the past few days. \u00a0What an immense thing, in the midst of a stressful time, to receive a text message from the Dock volunteer team telling me that all my shifts in Dock Cafe had been covered by other volunteers going above and beyond the call of duty, and I was NOT to come in to work under any circumstances!<\/p>\n

Is The Dock a church? is a topic of much debate. \u00a0(Well, I say debate, I mean long rambling conversations at theological college coffee tables across the land.) \u00a0If a church is where you find the warmth and grace of God’s love expressed in the practical kindness of his followers – then The Dock has definitely, profoundly been our church over this past week.<\/p>\n

Thanks everyone!
