I was up at 5 am this morning and got straight under the shower to wake up! This was because the London School of Theology's Research Conference, which I am attending, started at 9.30 am (UK time) which is 5.30 am Brazilian time. I ate a bowl of cereal with melon, paw-paw and banana as I listened to the brilliant keynote speaker who was Professor Andrew Steane who lectures Physics at Oxford University. His paper was - "It keeps me seeking: the invitation from Religion, Science and Philosophy". He was so good that his allotted time just flew by! 😀This was followed by Professor Richard Bell speaking on Hegel's view of time and this dragged by like a tortoise! 😥 The final speaker today was Tim Chen, who is a Chinese PhD student at LST, who spoke on the Wisdom of Solomon. He did well and this brought to an end the first challenging thought provoking day of the Conference. There's more tomorrow starting at the same time.
China has admitted, and if China admits it that's saying a lot, that the Covid Vaccine, called Coronavac from China, is limited in its effectiveness and that they are working on improving it. This is the vaccine Liz and I have had and we didn't have a choice. We value your prayers.
It rained hard in Patos last night but once again the rain was minimal at Green Pastures which is a great pity. Some places in Patos yesterday received 100 mm but at Green Pastures, just 12 miles away, we had only 4 mm.
