Commendations

Bishops of Armagh & Dublin

Church21 offers parishes across the Church of Ireland a way of working out their response to the challenge of the House of Bishops, to "Growth, Unity and Service". The journeying together is a significant part of the experience.

We commend the programme to any parish wanting to clarify its vision and turn aspiration into action.

Alan Armagh, John Dublin
