]]>We have recently been working on a new forum for Progressive Christians to meet and discuss. It’s now gone live but we need members!
The forum is designed to be easy to read and navigate, there is even a mobile version to catch up on the go! We hope it will become a vibrant place for people to get resources, discuss and socialise.
Hope to see you there!
