Past Life - Present Mission

Past Life - Present Mission is a booklet summarising my Dad's M.Phil exploring the relevance of Celtic Christianity to urban mission. The M.Phil was his final major piece of writing and, as a family, we are thrilled that the Community of Aidan and Hilda (of which he was a friend) have made Past Life - Present Mission available as a download from their website.

The Community of Aidan and Hilda is a world-wide fellowship whose members seek to live out Christianity as a complete way of life. Being wholly available to the Holy Trinity and to the way of Jesus as revealed in the Bible, they seek to cradle a spirituality for today: weaving together the separated strands of Christianity; healing the land; and resourcing people. In earthing these aims, they draw inspiration from Celtic saints such as Aidan and Hilda.

As well as offering retreats and workshops etc. at the Open Gate on Lindisfarne, the Community organise various activities and events around the UK and internationally. The book 'A Pilgrim's Way', which has recently been published, deals extensively with the Community's history, its Way of Life and its aims.
