Today I went for a meeting with the Principal at Wesley House- Phillip Luscombe. The States has been ruled out- Phillip is quite firm that I should have two years in one place- he argues that it is vital for my formation and thus ruled out Candler. So if I am to go to Wesley house at all it will be for two years. So in the end the decision has happened quite quickly! There are to be suggestions and feedback to go to Formation in Ministry- so hopefully we will get some agreement of plans for the next academic year in the next few weeks. Any plans made now will be subject to the agreement of the training pannels in May. We are hoping formation in ministry may agree to me doing an MA in pastoral theology over two years at Wesley House (http://www.theofed.cam.ac.uk/mapt.html). This will also allow me to "fill in the gaps" from the Cambridge Theological Federations courses. If this goes to plan I will do a placement from the end of August to the start of term. I would also live in College.
I feel a huge sense of relief that a decision has been made about America and feel that Wesley House would be good! During the meeting we did consider the other two full time training institutions and they don't seem to be appropriate for me. One had previously been ruled out with Wendy and the other was ruled out today, based on the changes that are occuring.
