Some of you may know I got back from the UK a week and a bit ago.  Yes I went with the whole family and it has taken a week for the girls to get over jet lag. Wide awake from 12am-4am.  (pictures - Sue C cuddling Chloe, Main Stage,  our communion and Lynd and family in the colour sculpture)

Anyway we went to greenbelt and it was a great festival of about 18000 people with art, speakers, justice groups, music and just about everything else in life.  Conversations about mission and ministry in the organic beer tent were a highlight. The best Alt worship was by a Northern Irish group - Ikon.

What is greenbelt? John Bell says….

‘Youth festival, music festival, political festival, evangelical festival, development festival, broke festival, harvest festival… there’s something in all these myths about Greenbelt that is accurate, but nothing entirely true…..’

You can order/download the talks? here
I really liked Pete Rollins, Naim Ateek, Sisiter Pamela Hussey,

Have a search through other years as just about every speaker you can think of has done a session at greenbelt - Ched Myers and John smith were there last year, Dave Andrews, Jim Wallis the list is endless.
