It can be a role we love best, or one that causes us great insecurity. There is no formal training for parenthood. There are no clear benchmarks of success and yet it demands all our resources, skills and attention. This book is the merging of the author’s deep convictions of parenting with examples of both “When it worked” and “When it did not work”. He has also elicited the help of his sons to write their perspectives on how their experiences and memories connect (or differ from) his own. This book will share stories of parenting success, but is honest about the times of failure, too.

It is a registered Charity of which the members are Trustees. There are four Thursday evening meetings spread over the year, with an additional ‘Away Day’ (usually on a Saturday in May or June). Members are asked to serve on one or more of the five PCC Committees: Buildings and Grounds, Finance, Mission, Priory Development Plan, and Worship.
