There was excitement and celebration as well as a certain sense of accountability as the 6 British districts represented here talked about their mission work with Chinese speaking people to members of Hong Kong Methodist Church. Not least since we are celebrating the work of pioneer missionaries at the same time. The group has spent these days walking in the shoes of the other and beginning to see things with their eyes and hear with their ears - quite transforming. Some of our connexional shortcomings have certainly been under the spotlight though! Thankfully relationships go deeper than structures after 160 years. Steve
