CTR AGM

Owen, Rob and I were all at the Churches Together in Reading AGM the week before last and Owen delivered a report on what Reading CEL have been doing this year. It was the first time I'd attended an AGM. It was a very thought provoking evening which included presentations on the work of the Rahab Project and Reading Street Pastors. It was moving and inspiring to hear about the work that is going on in Reading at the moment, but saddening to learn from Christian Community Action how those needing their help is increasing, with far more requests for food (not really their purpose) and this more often from families (it used to be mainly single people).
