Shankill and the Falls

 
I took a walk        
With my guardian angel
Through the streets
Where I was born
The painted wall
Rose up around me
From the Shankill
To the Falls

In all the time
You entertain me
I broke my heart
I can recall
Till I threw the dice
And I kept my distance
From the Shankill
And the Falls

I know you're aching
To trust somebody
A spark of love
In everyone
From the Tigras Bay
To the silent barrio
From the Shankill
To the Falls

--a great song by Bap Kennedy

This week there's a group of us working on the upper and lower Shankill through a little initiative tagged, "FWD"--Forward, or Faith With Deeds.

Pray for us! We've loved the last two days, meeting people on the streets, at their homes, playing with kids, hosting BBQs. We've had a real blast, and are simply and beautifully meeting God through the people we meet. We pray they are meeting Him too, in love and friendship.

With my friend Turk this morning, we spoke about the goings-on on the Shankill Radio! They always said I have a face for radio...
