This Year planner is a genuine attempt to provide a more effective way of managing the activity of the church, by providing a guide to meetings, services, and events, within the life of Halifax Parish Church 2009. Clearly, changes will take place throughtout the year, but it will provide a clear guide of what to expect in the coming year. As dates change, and new additions are made, it is intended that the parish Magazine and the Website will always carry the latest information. Some Vision groups are meeting at the same time, and for the majority this will not matter hugely, but on the odd occasion when it does, it might mean Vision Co ordinators agree alternative dates. Thanks are to be given to Gillian Farr, my PA and Church Administrator, to pulling this information together, in those rare minutes when she is not doing anything else!
