Parish Stories

Dismembering the Longdon, Bushley, Castlemoreton, Queenhill Benefice | Worcester Diocese

In two years time, we will lose our Vicar. He will not be replaced, though discussions are taking place about merging our Parish with another. If this does happen, the number of Churches within the Group will be around 10 which means that St Nicholas will be serviced by a stipendiary Priest on an ad hoc basis, if at all.

"We've been astonished since we launched #savetheparish. It's been letting a lid off a volcano. Laypeople & clergy around the country who feel they're not listened to."

"The Parish is small enough to be human, realising that Christian faith is faith in a person"- @AngelaTilby 👇

"Parish expresses a covenant with the nation beyond the congregation, which no idea or word captures in the same way..."

"The Parish is a rehearsal space for the Kingdom of Heaven where our love for God is practised in our love for neighbour" - @RevAndrewRumsey👇

Massive thank you to Ben Bradshaw for asking this. Not reassured by the answer. Some vague “presence” is not the same as a parish priest. #savetheparish

Ben Bradshaw @BenPBradshaw

My question to the spokesman for the @churchofengland @churchstate about the drastic reduction in priests in many diocese & its impact on the centuries old parish system & church schools
