This book both inspires and challenges Christians with its compelling insights into ministry; of what it means to work ecumenically and cross-culturally; to walk beside Aboriginal people and share their pain and to give oneself unconditionally to a multifaceted community of people. What shines through is the joy and the heartbreak of such a ministry and a deep sense of hope grounded in the Gospel. Written by Anne McPherson and Peter Millar in the form of letters to each other, it reflects on what it means to be a Christian presence in Mt. Druitt, Sydney. Anne, a former Leader of the Wellspring Community, was in ministry with the Uniting Church in Bidwill, part of the Mt. Druitt area in the western suburbs of Sydney from 1999-2007.
