We've asked a couple of parishioners to submit things to kick this forum off. Looks like a good start.

As Bishop John Harrower said in his 2003 Synod address:

I am willing to take the risk to release God's people into new beginnings. There are a host of creative options open to us. I look to our clergy and lay leaders to explore such options as alternative service models; the formation of new congregations; church planting and the development of home groups.

Sounds like a good idea. Can we have a monthly get-together in the Hall after the Service, in one corner quietly, so people who want to can have a chance to exchange views? I'd love it, but I'm not sure that would work unless people felt really free to 'be themselves'. I know I always worry about upsetting people, making waves, so don't say what I really feel.

4 March 2009 Forum:

We have removed a 'thread' to do with the question of the vacancy at Wynyard as this contravened the stated policy of the message board.
