Church Forum

Remember when we met for Sunday lunch and some serious discussion about the vision and direction of the church?  Well we have been working on the feedback recieved from that day and can now tell you what you think!  Well, the broad brush strokes anyway.

The group leaders took careful notes of each discussion and you can download a thorough summary of those here.  We have noted all the comments on the welcome cards for you to read too.

This has been a really encouraging excercise - let me summarise some of my reactions to our discussions.

Most of us think that a building is important, though there is a strong feeling that we must not be rushed into anything.  There is a mature desire to get this right and a willingness to be patient in the meantime.  I am very chuffed with this, because it takes pressure of us and enables us to be still' as we seek God's guidance.

Communication is an ongoing issue and needs to be improved.  So starting this week we have set up a system to email and text everyone with up to the minute info about everything.  So let us have a nice fresh email and cellphone number if you want ot be included in this.

We flagged up the problem of getting people into jobs in the church - we have clearly made a few mistakes here and we will try to get it right in future.  Most goups advised us to rely less on announcements and more on personal one-to-one recruitment.  Expect a tap on the shoulder sometime!

Good whichever-part-of-the-day everyone. I have been searching google for mp3, and came across
a catalogue livemusiclink.com.
Recommend if any of you have ever came across with such web resources. To what extent is it safe working with them and can I buy anything from them at all? Also please tell me as for where it is possible dig for free music?
