organic review
Have begun reconnecting with people around the UK in order to do a review of all things organic.

Always good to talk to Peter Worthington who runs house2house uk. They have about 8 different household churches in their local network and are helping a further 50 in some way around the UK.

One great story: A couple who gather in their home got to know a homeless guy who they eventually invited to stay with them for several months. He made a commitment to the Lord and subsequently moved up to Manchester to a Salvation Army hostel. Here he began an alpha course for residents and they now have 19 on the course!

Another couple Peter has connections with up in Manchester teach english to immigrants. Several have become believers as a result of this couple inviting them into their home for Sunday lunch and now there are 2 home churches meeting along similar lines.

Again and again as I ask people what they would find most helpful in their organic church planting journey the reply is - to be able to get together with others locally who are travelling the same road to share stories and lessons learnt etc.

Are you already doing that sort of thing locally/regionally? If you are let me know and I can help spread the word to any others who may be in your neck of the woods.

Yes I think we all crave connecting together, yet when we try it, organic churchers get suspicous about 'control' which is a bummer!
