This has taken many shapes over the years: from playing church with my sister as a child, to setting up a youth group in the church porch when I was 13; to being Prayer Secretary at the Christian Union in my Uni days, to my 12 years as a church based Youth Worker. The last 15 years have found me alongside my husband in rural Parish ministry, where I have been involved with children&#8217;s, youth and adult ministries. It has been a challenge and a joy, over the years, working creatively to find ways to help others to meaningfully meet with God.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Having degrees in both English Literature and Applied Theology,\u00a0 and with a creative heart, Faith in the Unfolding finds it&#8217;s home in my love of words, ideas, the things of God and creative expression. Perhaps a little oddly, as a lover of words and ideas, I am also a contemplative at heart, drawn to silence and &#8217;emptiness&#8217; too. I find strength and inspiration from long walks out across the fields where His voice seems to find me in ways it doesn&#8217;t elsewhere. Faith in the Unfolding echoes this appreciation of stillness and nature as a way of hearing His voice. It is my prayer that it will be an open, spacious, gentle, reflective, meaningful retreat ministry, helping us meet with God along life&#8217;s way.\u00a0<span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>I am a mum of two delightful children (I am of course biased) and my husband is a Vicar in the Church of England and we share our home in beautiful Norfolk with our dear cat Chester.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All through my life I have enjoyed creating spaces and opportunities for myself and others to draw aside and meet with God.
