Let’s Face It! Update

 

The Let’s Face It! immersive arts installation has now travelled around the district in 5 places throughout October, November and December.  It was well received at all the venues, Helston Central Methodist Church, Truro Methodist Church, The Mint Methodist church, The Royal Lyceum Theatre, Torquay and Sherwell United Methodist Church, Plymouth. Over 1,000 people looked at the installation and some amazing feedback was received.  Answered prayer in so many ways.

 

The feedback forms also revealed some insightful ideas about how the Methodist church and its buildings could be supporting housing and homelessness in new and alternative ways, with 57 people across the district interested to stay in touch and continue supporting this area of work – which is wonderful.

 

Not only were audiences challenged by the content of the immersive installation, the musical performance and testimony of his experience of homelessness given by Rhys The nightchurch pianist gave the audience much to ponder on.  It provided a stimulus for insightful conversations and new understanding.
