Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Official Report of the Church Congress: Held at Norwich, October, 1895 The Thirty-fifth Meeting of the Church Congress, held in the city of Norwich for the second time, will rank with the best of the long series of Congresses, notwithstanding the gloomy predictions which went before, and the caustic criticisms which followed after it. The value of a Church Congress cannot be accurately appraised by the syllabus of subjects, or by the list of invited Readers and Speakers, or by the muster roll of its members, or even by the amount of interest and enthusiasm it arouses, but by the character and quality of the principal papers and speeches; and, judged by this standard, Norwich Congress falls no whit behind its predecessors. There have been larger, more lively, more brilliant, and, perhaps, more conspicuously successful Congresses, but estimated by the chief contributions to the discussions, none of greater and more permanent! practical value. A glance backward over thirty years to the first Norwich Congress, held in 1865, reveals great changes. In this interval - long indeed when regarded in the light of a transient life, but inexpressibly short when measured by the life of a Church which reckons its history by the centuries - many who took a prominent part in the earlier Congress have passed away, and have entered, we trust, into the everlasting rest.
