“Our work must be what we ourselves are; and in ministering to others we realise more and more the solemn obligation which rests upon us – for their sakes, if not for our own – to sanctify ourselves.”

From Our Work

“Know, then, that to be is infinitely higher than to do; that to be thoroughly true is a higher service, and a more lasting service, than to spread the truth; that to be pure in heart brings you nearer to God, does more for your fellow-men, bears a more excellent fruit, than a life spent in helping others to be pure; that to be just is more excellent than to aid justice; that to be a Christian makes more Christians than to teach the Gospel.

Bishop TEMPLE

“To try too hard to make people good is one way to make them worse; the only way to make them good is to be good.”

G. MACDONALD
