Overview

Parish life is not tidy. It is not efficient. It is not always dignified. It involves dogs in the Lady Chapel, theological debates in pubs, risk assessments for forest holidays, and at least one war memorial that has seen more drama than it bargained for. In The Parish Life - Volume 2, we return to St Faithful's, Havnot - a fictional English parish that looks suspiciously like the real thing. Here, the PCC is vigilant, the verger sees everything, the curate is patient (mostly), and the Vicar is still quietly wondering who authorised him to be in charge. Within these pages you will find: - Theology held lightly (but not loosely). - Church politics conducted over tea. - Young people asking dangerous questions. - Retired saints refusing to fade gently. - And the stubborn, unfashionable miracle of people who simply keep turning up. This second volume goes deeper than the first. The humour remains - but so do grief, doubt, disability, money, mission, and the awkward business of loving one another in public. If you have ever sat in a pew, chaired a meeting, corrected a service sheet, brushed dog hair from a hassock, or wondered whether the Church might somehow survive us all - this book is for you. Faithful, not finished.
