- Notes
- Writer refers to March 2009 editorial and expresses concern about his own congregation which "consists of (I don't mean this harshly), a dying generation. We have a very willing and active senior membership. (I am 66.) Approximately 20 per cent of our congregation is under 50. Of these, we have 15 to 20 young children, under 10 years of age, and only about four to six teens. Our neighbouring Baptist and United churches have very vibrant ministries with over 900 people in their congregations. We need help !"
