Mr. Potato Head - Part One

Have you ever wondered where the apostle Paul got all his inspiration in the numerous letters he wrote. At our church weekend away, this weekend, we will be revealing the undeniable impact of Mr. Potato Head on Paul's first letter to the Corinthians. If you're not going to be there - come back here next week for part two.


Mr. Potato Head with a well earned cup of coffee.

Logos Hope

Today I visited the OM ship Logos Hope which is in London for a few more days. The ship is docked at South Quay, Canary Wharf and is open to the public 10am-10pm until Saturday, and then 2-10pm on Sunday. The ship will be closed Monday, and sails on Tuesday.

But here are a few photos.


This is your first sight of the ship if you're coming from the Canary Wharf underground station - just a few minutes away.

It's quite a size for a floating bookshop!

The ship stocks a mix of Christian and educational books. In many parts of the world sets of books will be delivered to local schools, churches and libraries, for the benefit of local communities.

If you sign up for a guided tour you get to see more of the ship, as well as learn a bit more about its work etc. This hall can be used as a 300 seater conference hall, as well as many other functions. The first thing you notice? The smell of freshly baked biscuits - the galley is right next door.

Out on deck.

This is the bridge. The captain wanted this job from the age of 8.

The view from the bridge - it's a long way down to the water!
