To celebrate the 150th anniversary of a church is a great achievement and I am very pleased to have this opportunity to send my congratulations and very best wishes to all members of St. Paul’s Church, Manningham.
During this period Manningham will have seen many changes and not least in the last 30 or 40 years and it is good to know that there is a committed Christian presence in this important area of the City.
As you celebrate a substantial period of worship and witness I hope that the people of St. Paul’s will look forward in faith and hope because I believe God has many things for us to do in the years ahead.
