[QUOTE="Suffolk Serf, post: 7069224, member: 636"] My mother is a retired vicar. For years I have watched how the C of E is run at a national and diocesan level with horror at the way money is wasted on pointless "advisors" at the expense of the parishes. I very rarely go to church but chair a local event that raises money for local charities of which 40% of the profits pay the diocesan "quota" for five parishes. Occasionally I'm overcome with a bout of uncharacteristic generosity and give a reasonable amount of money to my village church when I take pity on the worthies having all those tiny coffee mornings and fetes. I'm not sure what the answer or the future is but the C of E needs to take a long hard look at myself and answer some difficult questions. The leadership has been absolutely hopeless during Covid.
