Finding God in Unexpected Places

Share this article


In the first of our June reflections, we hear from CRCW student Jo Patterson who has been on a placement in Brixton, working with two church communities for the last couple of years.

After four years in training, Jo says: "I find myself reflecting on those experiences I have been blessed to witness and generously been invited to share. Theological reflection is asking, “Where is God in this?” So, I want to talk about where God is ‘unexpectedly’."

We hear about Jo's relationship with God and how and where she witnesses God within her work and ministry: "God is in the people, not the building. It is in what we do as well as what we believe. And in those relationships between the people we see and minister to."
