Today, in worship, we were focussing on the fact that each of us is a beloved child of God. I thought it would be fun for the children to splash around in the font and invited any adults who wanted to do so too. I know that to some folks that won't seem like much of a big deal but we are Scottish presbyterians who don't do much moving about in worship. Well! The response was overwhelming. It was so moving to see so many youngsters and adults come to the font, put their hand in the water and be assured that they are beloved of God. God loves you - and I love you.

Cool idea. And it is good to see the Castlehill font again after so many years :-)
