Church of England: A Christian presence in every community
The Church of England plays a vital role in the life of the nation, proclaiming the Christian gospel in words and actions and providing services of Christian worship and praise. Its network of parishes cover the country, bringing a vital Christian dimension to the nation as well as strengthening community life in numerous urban, suburban and rural settings. Its cathedrals are centres of spirituality and service, and its network of chaplaincies across continental Europe meet important local needs. The Church of England plays an active role in national life with its members involved in a wide range of public bodies. Twenty-six bishops are members of the House of Lords and are engaged in debates about legislation and national and international affairs |

Churchcare
Church buildings are of tremendous significance and value, as places of worship and also as historic places of great beauty which are the focus of the environment both in town and country, and increasingly reach out to the community through the wider range of activities which take place within them. But the work of caring for and maintaining them can be daunting without help. This website is intended to help you, the people involved in caring for such buildings, through offering practical advice, guidance, and links to other useful sources of advice |

ChurchMaps
Mission Action Planning is a tried and tested method for individual churches to review their mission strategy and to plan their mission priorities and actions. Nowadays, many churches and organisations are using MAP - some as part of a growth strategy. For some years, those engaged in supporting and training for MAP have set up informal local or national networks, and this has helped the MAP process to evolve. This site has been created to stimulate further sharing and learning |

Whalley Abbey
Standing on the banks of the River Calder, Whalley Abbey has been a focal point for hospitality since the fourteenth century. It began its history as a community of Cistercian monks. The ruins that still stand in the grounds today remind visitors of St. Benedict's rule to receive strangers as if they were Christ himself |
