Summary of August / September 2008's content:

Revd Sam Foster Some push the calling to ordained ministry to the back of their mind for years, but Revd Sam Foster responded sooner rather than later: “I tried to run away a bit longer and it just - the call got stronger and my life just began to go in a particular direction and it felt like the right time."
Ven Chris Lowson “We’ve not been very good in recent years in attracting young people,” says Ven Chris Lowson, the Church of England's Director of Ministry Division, “and this campaign is trying to remind young people that they can do this; this is something that God may be calling them to do.”
Revd Kesari Godfrey “When I started my studies,” says Revd Kesari Godfrey, reflecting on his calling to ministry, “one of my friends asked me, ‘Why don’t you think about ministry in England?’ In fact at that time I didn’t take it seriously - but God was talking to me for about three years.”
