Being with
Revd Dr Sam Wells
During the HeartEdge event in Amsterdam in May 2019, I took a walk out among the canals with a camera crew and they asked me what was the heart of my notion of ‘being with,’ and of the social outreach of St Martin-in the-Fields and the ethos of the HeartEdge movement. It was such a beautiful day and this video in a short time captures a lot that’s important to many people associated with HeartEdge and St Martin’s. A lot of people and cars passed by but I think they’ve all been edited out. I hope you enjoy watching the video as much as we enjoyed making it.
– Revd Dr Sam Wells
