Subject: [methmins] Pastoral care
The Church I attend is to have a meeting reviewing pastoral care of members.
We have had "Pastoral groups" (ex-Class meetings|!) but with an ageing
congregation have fewer people willing to take on leadership of the groups.
Also, the congregation - approx. 140 members/adherents - is dispersed around
the town (Northampton) so visiting is not easy. I'm sure that similar
problems arise in other churches so wonder what solutions may be being tried
elsewhere.
