Its a strange feeling looking back over the way things grow and develop. I feel so privileged to have been part of something so dynamic as the Vine Trust. You know when I first mentioned the idea of starting up a Trust to help change the world, I never believed in my wildest dreams it would involve two medical ships in the Amazon and seven children’s homes in various parts of Peru. God often  takes small insignificant things and makes the significant in a most unusual way. It was just about this time of the year 22 years ago we got started with the Vine Trust and Branches. Its strange but in those days the Branches shop was the focus of attention. The Vine Trust was simply a mechanism through which to dispense with the profits of Branches. It might be of interest to some people to note that the inspiration for Branches came from the Balmore Trust. This Trust was set up the Rev John Riches who was my New Testament Professor. Today it still carries on doing excellent work. Little did I think that some 22 years later the Vine trust would have been so successful in highlighting the plight of Abandoned Children in Peru and also in taking medical care to the remote parts of the Amazon. The above pictures tells the story of Amazon Hope 2. I for one want to thank God for allowing us to be part of something that is really quite incredible. Today i hesitate to think what World Without Walls is going to look like in 22 years, but I’m sure it also has an amazing future. Let us all keep on dreaming dreams. You never know with God where you’ll waken up . It could be the Amazon or a rural Indian village or it might just be seeing the hand of God on the lives of the least expected.
