One of the key
speakers at the recent Yarnfield Conference fior United Reformed Church Ministers
was the Revd. Dr. Rowan Williams, Master of Magdalene College, Cambridge, and
former Archbishop of Canterbury. Dr. Williams retold the stories of three
faithful women - Maria Skobtsova, Dorothy Day and Madeleine Delbrel. He
used their lives as models of discipleship under the general title of ‘Discipleship
in the Modern City’. Dr. Williams’ use of the stories of ordinary people who
did remarkable things must have set many of us wondering as to who are the
people we know and encounter who do extraordinary things and so live out an
amazing discipleship. His talks were a reminder of the importance of
faithfulness and that we can often find special things going on in the most
unexpected places.
