		<title>Get rid of the &#8220;shoulds&#8221; of life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s so easy to beat oneself up &#8211; I can do it so easily because there are always so many things I have resolved to do that never get done. I don&#8217;t imagine I am alone because one of the features of living in the 21st century is that we try to do more and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Essence draws to a close</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We have just finished our first Essence Course at St James. The course is especially written for people new to the faith but to be honest most of the people on the course had been in the faith for ages. But the course was still important to us all because it enabled us to actually [...]]]></description>

		<title>Greenbelt</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m back home after my annual trip to Cheltenham Racecourse &#8211; not for the horses but for the Greenbelt Festival. It seems there are festivals all over the place nowadays but this one has been around for a long time &#8211; around 36 years! Greenbelt is a feast of music, poetry, worship, workshops, theology, comedy, [...]]]></description>

		<title>So where are these sermons?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This question has been asked and I blame the ecumenical set up! The services I have conducted haven&#8217;t contained straight forward sermons; the morning worship I did at a local Methodist church had the Beatles and Pink Floyd but the words of wisdom were interwoven &#8211; lost to obscurity! Then we had the Open Door [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Visit to the Urban Farm</title>
		<description><![CDATA[  A Visit to the Urban Farm Right in the middle of Wolverton there are 2½ acres of land bursting with life – sweet corn, courgettes, potatoes, raspberries, runner beans and tomatoes and more. There are giant sunflowers in colours I had never dreamt of and a beautiful range of flowers only my mother would [...]]]></description>

		<title>Heading in a new direction!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well I have decided to do it at last &#8211; no not have a glass of wine or go on a diet. I&#8217;ve decided to put my sermons up on the web. It hasn&#8217;t really taken much to resist this in the past &#8211; in fact I dread doing it as I know that I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Open Door in June</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This month the Open Door service focussed on art; we were inspired by Bishop John&#8217;s new book &#8220;Living Jesus&#8221; and by the fabulous new altar frontal we have, to celebrate the &#8220;Ordinary Season&#8221; in the church&#8217;s calender. Artist Yvonne Bell created the design from ideas submitted by the congregation and the frontal reflects the local [...]]]></description>

		<title>Just a week&#8230;&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[People have been very good to me this week and I can now evidence that there is soil in my garden! Clearing the weeds away revealed some surprises among which were some abandoned duck eggs. Strange how so much unwanted foliage was hiding something so precious. Somehow life doesn&#8217;t give us the settings we expect [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ribbon Dancing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Now I&#8217;ve got back to blogging there&#8217;s no stopping me. We are having a potted history of the past few months at St James! One of the highlights was the way the children danced the story of Easter from Jesus&#8217; entry into Jerusalem to the resurrection. I was amazed at how expressive the ribbon dancing [...]]]></description>

It was so lovely to be able to simple be &#8211; still, in company or entertained. A huge thank you to all those who worked so hard and with such [...]]]></description>
