Committees are necessary. Even more important is vision and the ability to move the congregation toward the goals of the church. But when push comes to shove, it's the ministry of the Word that gives us our greatest impact. A church can usually put up with weak administration if it has effective preaching. But there's nothing quite as pathetic as people coming to church and returning home without any spiritual food.

delicious in this recipe.

Freezing not recommended You don't have to travel to Italy to enjoy wild
rughetta, a spiky green-leaved plant with a strong peppery flavour. Most
supermarkets now sell rocket, a slightly milder cultivated variety. If you
can't find it, use spinach or a mixture of lamb's lettuce and watercress.
