Janet Lees has posted a wonderful photo of the extraordinary quilt Louise Mabbs has made to celebrate Janet and Bob's 10 years of life and ministry in Sheffield. It is an amazing celebration of the Land's End to John o' Groats walk Bob did in 2003 and a stunning demonstration of Louise's skill and creativity.
Not all of us are as artistically talented as Louise but I'm sure all of have things we do which nourish our ministry. I love doing calligraphy - or even just thinking about doing calligraphy. It helps to calm me down, makes me breathe more deeply and sometimes the results are not too bad.
Thanks to Sarah Hall's new blog I've been discovering about craftivism - the gentle art of craft and activism - perhaps craftitheoligism is what a lot of my ministry has been about. Give me some paint, a Bible text and a campaign and I'm away.
So what do you do to restore and feed your soul?
