| at are the Church's main aims for 2002 ? |
To develop our new visitor centre as more than just a tearoom.We
also aim not only to put more "bums on pews" but to provide greater support out
in the community where people are swinging wildly on the trapeze of life without the
safety harness (who said crutch?) of faith which we enjoy.
|
| What are the Church's main aims for the
future ? |
There is a pressing need to restore the cupola, the gilded cross, the clock faces and the
bells.
Fundraising is always going on for a building like this and unfortunately attaches a
mercenary aspect to much of what we do. It is however an important and necessary part of
Church life - reports of the fabulous wealth of the Church of England are somewhat biased
and exaggerated.
|
| What is the biggest problem to be solved in
2002 ? |
The same as the biggest problem of 2001, 2000, 1999 and further. The condition of the
access road which deters visitors, concert goers and worshippers.
We are desperately in need of materials and roadbuilding expertise.
|
| How do you think our website can help
support what the Church does? |
Communication is the key. Hopefully it will be a two way process and by communicating we
find out what people want and hopefully dispel the widely held view that churchgoers are a
bunch of holier-than-thou hypocrites who only want your money!I like the interactive aspect.
