Another interesting Side Door last month on Winter. Cooked roasted chestnuts (not all they're cracked up to be) and smores (toasted marshmallows in chocolate thins). Looked at winter being the start of a new cycle of growth rather than the end of an era. Lots of great conversation over soup and rolls. A real feeling of community on sunday night.

Great Side Door last night for those who braved the cold. Good soup, good company, good music etc. Lots of people found the breathing prayer meaningful and helpful - and nobody passed out.
Interesting to contemplate the fruit of the Spirit contrasting the natural versus the processed and comodified apples.
It all comes down to love - freely given, not earned. In other words Grace.
