Update from London

The "I Am My Beloved's Conference" was held on Friday and yesterday. It was an enjoyable experience to speak together with Paul Anderson-Walsh during the conference. The participants were all responsive to our teaching and indicated that they enjoyed it. On Saturday, Dave Bilbrough was a part of the conference. He taught a session and sang some of his songs. Dave is an extremely well known musician in the U.K. and is a wonderful grace filled writer and singer. (www.davebilbrough.com).I have asked him if I can offer his CDs for sale through Grace Walk in the states. Once we receive his music, I encourage you to get to know him and his music. He's definitely a kindred spirit to all grace walkers.

Those who attended the conference came from various places. There were three people from Finland who came and a couple from Canada. Paul and I have decided to teach a conference together like one this two times next year, once here in London and once in Florida. I'll make you aware of the dates so you can plan to attend.

We love the city of London. The double-decker buses, the little black taxis, the red phone booths, the quaint, cozy little pubs, the beautiful old buildings ... it's fun to see for Americans whose country is so young. One church building we walked past yesterday is over a thousand years old. Obviously, you can't see that kind of thing at home.

I speak this morning (Sunday) at The Grace Project. Then tomorrow we will go to Oxford where, among doing other things, we'll see the pub where C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien hung out together - the authors of The Chronicles of Narnia and The Lord of the Rings together in a pub in Oxford. I would have liked "to have been a fly on the wall" during some of those conversations!

Thanks again for your interest in this trip and your prayers. It has been great, but we do look forward to coming home this week. As the saying goes, "there's no place like home."
