Westminster College and our flat

We're staying at Westminster College, one of three training places for people who on the road to becoming ministers in the United Reformed Church. (The URC is result of the 1982 merger of the Presbyterians and Congregationalists in England.) The building was built in 1899 as the Presbyterian seminary. It's a gorgeous building. 





We live in the former stables in the back, which were converted into two small one-bedroom flats. The couple in the other flat are from New Zealand, and I knew the wife before we came here.



Our bedroom is on the far end, and from our bed we can see the back side of the Westminster College chapel.


One of the highlights of being here for me is the cool labyrinth in the side lawn. I like to walk it and pray and think.
