"The church is less easy to manage than, say, a factory for making garden PATTERN furniture. Churches are not just human groups organised round a & more! straightforward task. They are primarily places of divine encounter, places where we wrestle with the meaning of God and the meaning of our own lives. They are bound to be untidy." Bishop Richard Holloway in 'Churches & How to Survive Them' 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th We believe God's intention for human beings is that we should grow in such Communion Communion Communion love for him & such confdence in him that we would rightly be called God's 0830 * FRISBY BROOKSBY HOBY sons & daughters.

A presupposition of the Church of 1800 England is that we do not travel alone. Where is God in relation to that KIRBY journey? He is both the starting point and the ending point.
