Learning Through Saint Stephens, Bristol
I visited the Church of Saint Stephen in Bristol. The church was started around the 13th Century and rebuilt in the 15th Century. It has been attended by merchants throughout it's history near the harbour including those involved in the slave trade during the 17th and 18th Century.

Mission
Saint Stephen's, Bristol's harbourside church, is deeply rooted in Christian devotion, founded within the ancient sacred city on the banks of the rivers Frome and Avon.
The maritime City has pioneered endeavour from explorers to Brunel with trans-Atlantic trade and travel generating a legacy of wealth, wounds and tensions.
Inheriting this space for Christian mission in the present millennium inspires both humility and vocation. The call is to continue the story -- with hope that rises from God's reconciling and healing love.
Our task is to inspire and enable this mission by:
Connecting with people who make the life of the city
Modelling work and programmes shaped by the Gospel
Developing community and commitment with Christ at the source.
Guided by these signposts we are called to build a community with capacity to offer the City a centre for engaged spirituality. This is the service of the Gospel, amidst a culture of curiosity, spiritual exploration and individual journeys of faith.
In response, we are offering experiences to open people to the life of the Spirit through meditation, music and prayer of the heart.
We are opening doorways to exploring faith creatively through visual arts, singing, dance and performance.
We have encountered growing interest in the care of Creation and relationships which honor the Creator within movements to protect and conserve the environment and natural resources -- translating into communion and the sacred.

Exploring Bristol & the Transatlantic Slave Trade part 1
The transatlantic slave trade, so-called because of the route taken by the slave ships across the Atlantic Ocean from Africa to the Caribbean and North America, had an enormous effect on Bristol. Between 1698 and 1807, a known 2,108 ships left Bristol for Africa to exchange goods for enslaved Africans and take them to the Caribbean. The profits from the trade made it even wealthier.
I walk through some of the city's infrastructural artifacts from that time.
Route used:
This trail explores a handful of the city’s seemingly everyday sights to uncover how Bristol’s slavery past still permeates life here 500 years on.
3:Bristol Urban Excursionist - Following the River Frome - The New Cut to St Judes. February 2018
Episode three begins on a crisp, bright blue Sunday Winter's morning at the edge of Bristol's historic New Cut river. We're looking for the confluence of the mysterious underground River Frome that flows through the centre of town. We find the mysterious Mylne's Culvert pouring into the New Cut of the River Avon from our vantage point in Coronation Road, Southville amongst the February blossoms. We wander off to join the Frome, but get side-tracked by a small path leading to a forgotten relic of the maritime age at the waters-edge - when the New Cut was bustling with river traffic. We watch Sunday-walkers stroll across Bristol's other suspension bridge, the Gaol Ferry Bridge viewed from our hidden path. A detour to St Paul's Vicarage gives us warm brick and stone in the cold morning light, but the trees are stark against the winter skyline, and we catch a glimpse of the slipway to the sea. Back on track we cross the suspension walkway high above the low-tide and head towards Wapping Wharf to see the brand-new developments and a new public space. We stop to take in the ruined stonework of the Old Gaol silhouetted against the deep aquamarine sky and nip to the water's edge to find the Frome again with it's larger cousin flowing to the gorge, joined by the Malago Brook. The old dock buildings beckon with their 1930's and 1950's industrial architecture, some surprisingly coloured brickwork and the old iron staircase up to the offices. We've reached the still waters of our old friend the Floating Harbour and track the course of the river that flows under the water. Across the Prince Street Bridge we pause to see the Cormorants sunning themselves in-between fishing expeditions and a rowing boat crossing the harbour. We pick up the course of the Frome again and head North past the old Waterfront pausing to examine a few relics of the industrial age as the river disappears under the streets. At St Augustine's Parade we stop to imagine what it would have looked like when it was a busy commercial wharf and take in some lovely stone frontages dated from that time. The modern 1930's Electricity House provides an interesting interlude between new and old architecture as we head into the heart of the modern city with it's gleaming glass and concrete, following the curves of the underground stream. We find the grimy relic of the old Police Court with it's Sword of Justice and dive into the concrete chasm that follows the course of the ancient defensive moat from Medieval times. Deeper underground we go into the bowels of the Galleries down to the level of the Frome encased in it's tunnel and them climb up high into the sunlight of Castle Park and find an Ivy-covered door leading to the old dungeons, or so they say. Heading East out of the city-centre past the truly monolithic Castlegate edifice we find a few clues of the river following beneath our feet in the street names and some evidence of the old retaining walls. At last our ancient water spirit is free as it escapes into the daylight replete with Moorhens foraging amongst the weeds and our route quickly heads out into the Bristol suburbs. We find the first of many artefacts of the Frome's industrial past when it was still a tidal river and come to a pause in our exploration of our old friend at the end of this episode. For accompaniment The Fascinator has tuned up his Guitar to re-channel Tangerine Dream and The Cocteau Twins for an intangible, lucid experience.
