A young man called in at church last night just as we were wrapping up the church council meeting. Earlier in the evening he had turned up at our community choir.
He was Russian, lived in one of the many bedsits that surround our church and struck us as being desperately lonely. There are many Eastern Europeans living in our community and we only seem to have occasional contact.
Do any readers know of any outreach or befriending schemes being run by churches from which we could get some ideas?![]()
