Connecting with your community is therefore about people connecting with people. Sounds simple doesn’t it…but is it? Who, what and where are our communities and how do we connect with them? What are biblical models for engagement with community and how might they be applicable today. How can we increase effectiveness recognise fruitfulness and develop our work in the community? Chelmsford Cathedral on Sunday 17 June at 2.30pm In ancient Greece the original Olympic Games were preceded by a fifty day truce and it was followed by a fifty day truce. This was not only to allow competitors to travel in safety to Olympia but because the Games were regarded as a sacred event. This invitation to celebrate One Hundred Days of Peace aims to promote a culture of peace in our communities.
