Short term mission~ Long term involvement
One of the things that's encouraging me from Soul in the City is hearing local Christians and churches begin to think and talk more "mission". If SITC has awakened people to the needs on their doorsteps then that is fantastic.
Its too early to say if that really is the case - but the early signs are good. We'll just have to wait to September when church programmes start and "normal" life resumes to find out for sure!
