Waiting and Wondering: Natalia-Nana Lester Bush and Ayla Lepine in Conversation

Church Window Mask

Tuesday 17 December 7.30pm, at our sister church St Pancras, Euston Road

  • Getting here

    St Pancras Church, Euston Road, London, NW1 2BA

  • In this conversation, Natalia-Nana and Ayla will explore what waiting means in the here and now, inspired by scripture that makes us wonder and gives us hope for a world filled with God’s justice and liberation. Jesus’ life brought new hope in the context of oppression and struggle. His friends and family’s questions are our own: ‘what next?’; ‘how long?’; ‘how can we keep going?’ Together in dialogue, everyone’s voice will be invited to be part of mutual curiosity about what waiting can look like and feel like. As stories are shared in the days leading from Advent towards Christmas, we will find new questions waiting for us in this luminous season.
