The Vocation and Ministry of Church Members, Considered in a Report on the Best Mode of Working a Parish (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Vocation and Ministry of Church Members, Considered in a Report on the Best Mode of Working a Parish

Here is evidence that a parish minister can, by a change of system allowed by the Canons and Rubrics and cordially sanctioned by the Bishops of this Diocese, add three-fold to his efficiency, without an undue ex penditure of strength, or any increase in the cost of conducting the parish. And, what is still more impor tant, it is also shown that this church can savingly reach a class of men hitherto neglected by her, and in so doing impart great spiritual benefit to intelligent Christians, many of whom have been driven from her Communion by a yearning for work that she has been slow to afford them. Her Laity have higher powers than those of any other Christian body, extending even to a veto in every legislative enactment by her Bishops or other Clergy.
