Oh, community building – it's absolutely crucial, especially now. Thinking about presence in ministry, I remember when our local community garden was struggling; people weren't engaging. I just started showing up consistently, weeding, chatting, bringing snacks and soon others did too. It slowly bloomed into a thriving little space. It was all about being present. Sharing this with you all, feeling inspired! Now back to my daily session of wordle unlimited.
