Scope and Content

From Frederick Leach Buxton at the Methodist Church, Cock Road, Kingswood, near Bristol, to ex-Bible Christian ministers.

Have they noticed how their number is dwindling? Since the union of 1907 over 150 of their former colleagues have died, leaving 72 of whom only 22 are still in the active ministry.

The fact that the 1948 Conference is being held in Bristol offers a wonderful opportunity for them to get together. Brothers Richard Pyke and John Ford Reed have welcomed this suggestion, and hope to be there.

The Knowle Church (ex-Bible Christian) have offered to provide them with tea on Friday 16th July at the expense of the Church.

If age or ill health prevent attendance, perhaps people would like to send a greeting.
