The Church of England today launches a new section of its website in celebration of 150 years of the parish magazine.
The Church estimates that the combined readership of its parish magazines exceeds that of several national newspapers, taken together.
Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, says on the new web-site: “A good parish magazine is a wonderful resource that places the local church at the heart of the community it serves.
“We owe our gratitude to all those who labour lovingly to produce this regular shop-window for their church or parish. As a team or solo, with a generous budget or an alarmingly fraying shoestring, this is a ministry we need to recognise and to support.”
