The website of the new Bristol & South Gloucestershire Circuit
 of the Methodist Church (so, 'BSGC')


A new era in Church life has begun, and the largest Methodist Circuit in the country is ours!

The ministers and laymen
who have the task of leadership
have invited all the churches of the new Circuit
to pray that their vision for
Bristol and South Gloucestershire
reflects the will of God.


AMEN (="May it be so!")



THE SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH EVENT at THE PARK, Knowle
on Saturday, 6th September brought over 400 visitors and a useful encouragement to those who were concerned about the new Circuit
The many stands on show included this (left) from the Railway Mission

 


St Alban's Church was nearly full for the service to mark the birth of the Circuit on Sunday afternoon, 7th September, from the welcome (right)

CHEERFUL CORNER (we need a smile occasionally!)
The Ship of Fools website reveals through a link to 'Fruitcake' sites:

"Elliot S! Maggin, an observant Jew who is one of Superman's most popular and influential contemporary chroniclers, stated in a 1998 interview that Clark Kent and the entire family are Methodists. Although possibly not "canonical" at the time that Maggin gave this interview, this notion appeared already to have widespread support and subsequently grew in popularity.

Many writers and fans believed this denominational affiliation best captures and explains the character as he has been portrayed over the years."
