We were joined on route by others but we began with refreshments and conversation.
So we touched on their life as a church, the importance of being welcomed, and so we had a great start to the day. Mosborough has a great parents and toddlers group led by Janet and they have been very supportive of my involvement with a Methodist church in Ghana. So I will be joining them again for a fun morning and to collect the latest collection of childrens clothes to send to Asebu.
On route we passed the local Church of England parish church.
We were joined by three knowledgable folk who gave us an understanding of the area and its history.
So we made it to the church of Emmanuel Waterthopre one of the local Ecumenical partnership churches. The church is linked physically to the Junior School and Infant School. Four Christian traditions came together to make the church some forty years ago - United Reformed- Baptist- Church of England-Methodist.
A warm welcome awaited us as the parent and toddler group was getting set up for the afternoon.we had opportunity to look round the school.
They have a wonderful outside classroom 
A willow classroom space.
It must be great to have a lesson inside here .
Or What about this
So having heard all about the exciting work and possibilities we prayed and moved off ...
Louise and John setting the pace while Janet and I chatted.
Killamarsh was our final destination.
Oh dear did you put your foot into it Louise?
Inside to have a drink and conversation and again to hear about the diverse ministries the church exercise.
It must have been a good time because we well over run on time....still it was worth every moment to be encouraged by what our churches are doing.
Now to plan the next stage.
