Posted by Simon Sarmiento on Monday, 29 June 2009 at 3:38pm BST | TrackBackWhat a feather in the cap for Saint Michael's Theological College at Llandaff. It seems here that maybe 'small is beautiful', and that a culture of encouragement among theologs to prepare for ministry in the 'real world' of prisons, and other work-based chaplaincies might just be what will bring the Anglican Church back into a culture of engagement with the common fundamental issues of life, concerning more than just an academic preoccupation with theological conundrums, and reaching out to the specific moral and spiritual needs of our modern world.
While maintaining the tradition of orderly worship and holy learning, it would seem that St. Michael's is also concerned with the pastoral nurture of a new generation of human beings, whose everyday concerns are seen to be important to those who might be called to help them deal with issues of social justice, peace and respect for every other person; which needs, more than ever, to be the vocation of a living, breathing Church community.

And I so well remember past reports on St Mike's when recognition was withdrawn and it was failing badly!
All the more reason to say:
Well done Peter and all the staff!!
