About This Book

A priest recounts a decade of parish mission work in a deprived Portsmouth neighborhood, describing appointment and the district’s social conditions; establishing practical programs — gymnasium, schools, orphan and penitentiary outreach, sailors’ ministry — and organizing laity and women volunteers; negotiating parish buildings and liturgical arrangements; confronting civic and ecclesiastical conflicts, financial struggles, and accusations of money-grubbing; reflecting on pastoral methods, worship practices, and toleration; and linking the local work with support from Winchester and appeals for funds. The account blends operational detail, personal reflection, and illustrative cases to portray community-building and the challenges of urban Anglican mission.
