I am afraid that you cannot place a form of gagging order ( a custom of the Welsh media to prevent upsetting Bazzar) on what is seemingly a historical fact that the 'mission area' model was presented and discussed at a provincial level as far back as 1994.<br /><br />So also was the issue of a certain parish being able to fund and support its own ministry, until of course, a certain cleric unwittingly stumbled across the scandal of clergy pensions. <br />The rest, thanks to Bazzar, became history - the scandalous history of the Church in Wales.<br /><br />The conclusion which the Provincial Board of Finance arrived at was this: 'If the parishes of ...........were allowed to do this it would be the end of the Church in Wales as we know it'.<br /><br />Apart from a massive spiritual drought under the present bench and leadership in Cardiff, what exactly has changed to make it sound as if Lord Harris happens to be the best thing since slice bread?<br /><br />Of the documents that I and many others have seen and read, and which are in the public domain, it appears that Bazzar is playing copycat again. Never let it be said that he doesn't believe in the resurrection. The resurrection of someone else's vision.By heck lad! The name is 'craft' not 'daft'.<br /><br />But who knows, he may yet discover a more Christ like direction, which can only be a good thing. If not, then history will find it impossible to identify his remains.<br /><br />So, brethren, do not give up on giving up on Bazzar. That Jesus may touch his heart, and the hearts of all bench sitters evrywhere. Amen<br /><br /><br /> <br /><br /> Enforcerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08943009288993021671noreply@blogger.com
