At Your Service

Sunday, 22 October 2023 - 32 minutes

Scripture Union Ministries Trust has been active on the Island for some 40 years - helping young people to explore issues of faith for themselves.  Now it's no longer in partnership with SU in England and Wales, but  stands alone as part of Scripture Union International - and they have a new Chief Executive. She is KRISTINA REEVES, and on the programme today she explains not just her own role, but the work of SU on the Isle of Man, and the significance of now being an independent part of the bigger Scripture Union picture.
The Very Reverend JOHN MANN - former Dean of Belfast Cathedral, and recipient of the Lambeth Cross for Ecumensim in 2018 - is now living in retirement with his wife Helen in her native Laxey.  He is writing devotional books for Messenger Publications, and the first has just been released.  On today's programme he discusses JOURNEYING TO THE LIGHT - daily readings through Advent and Christmas.  The book is available now but will have its official Isle of Man Launch Evening at Thie Dy Vea in Peel at 7:30pm on 9th November.  The evening (which includes refreshments) is free - but please reserve your place via the website - retreat house.im
