Sunday 15 September, 10.30 – 11.30 am: Story Time
Dostoevsky wrote, “But how can you live and have no story to tell?”
Robert McKee adds, “A fine work of art – music, dancing , story – has the power to silence the chatter in the mind and lift us to another place.”
In this service it is story time. We will hear tales from gifted story tellers – Jesus and Rumi, the Sufi mystic. We will think about whether they are far more enigmatic and open ended about the truths we seek than we remember in our simple childhood memories.
Tom Grimshaw will pose these puzzles and warmly invites you to attend: make yourself comfortable and lose yourself in your imagination. All welcome.
