Learning the Languages of Humanity.

Prayer request from our home church in Aberdeen at Crown Terrace:

 

"Remember Alison and Ken as they help our Iranian friends with learning English this afternoon in the church."

 

This too is ministry, this too is loving our neighbour, this too is giving words to those in whom we see Christ our brother and sister.

The 'language of Zion' needn't be the closed discourse of Christian in-talk, but the gift of words that enables, as Isaiah and Micah knew well, the coming together of nations to walk together in God's ways.

 

The tapestry is based around Hebrew script "tikkun olam", and celebrates this deeply Jewish notion that translates as "to repair the world. Indeed.

God bless Alison, Ken and others in similar ministry. I was thrilled to see a poster in the library advertising that there was a meeting place for Ukrainian refugees, to connect and chat, being set up in a local Baptist church. A simple act of love and welcome, in His name.
