"Congratulations on the AGM. The whole
event was beautiful and, as always, my spirits were raised by being with
Broken Rites. When you feel ready do come back and we might then talk
about a survey on pension income. With best wishes, Frank"

"Many congratulations to Broken Rites for
continuing to offer help and support to divorced and separated wives of
clergy and ministers for 25 years! I hope that your 25th
Anniversary Celebration in April 2008 will be a very happy and successful
occasion. I am delighted that the Archbishop of Canterbury is to be the
keynote speaker, and I hope very much to be able to join you on this
special day.
Throughout the year I have followed your progress closely in particular
the initiatives undertaken in Ireland, Scotland and in Wales. I await
any developments with interest. The display at the General Synod of the
Church of England in February 2008 is an enterprising venture, and I hope
that this will raise among Synod members an awareness of the value of the
work undertaken by Broken Rites.
I
would still encourage you to undertake further research on how members are
managing financially after retirement and, if appropriate, any financial
difficulties encountered by younger members, particularly with those with
young children.
In
the meantime, I send you my very best wishes for all your activities in
the coming year."
