    As an online follower of Rev. Murphy and Emmanuel Church - Morecambe, I am deeply disturbed by what is happening and how it happened. I marveled at how the number of parishioners in attendance grew and the number of people online also grew over the 8 months I followed him. Is it not the duty of a church to grow its membership? Please pray for Rev. Murphy, his family, and Emmanuel Church - Morecambe.

    Rev Brett is a truly godly man who has prospered with God blessing his ministry. From 2 to 50 members at Emmanual Morecambe in just one year. A thriving outreach to homeless folk and others, and a church family who love him and his family dearly, are reeling from this attack. So sudden. So uncalled for. It appears he is one in a long line of others who have also been cancelled by this bishop. Praying for him and his family.

    In addition to the above link a letter sent as a parishioner of Brett's to various people (or a variation thereof)
    Whenever we watch your UA-cams you remind us of the frustrations Brett suffered. Whenever I look at Brett I understand why you don't take that leap of faith.
    The letter,:
    Upto about a year ago my wife and I have attended the Church of England. We stopped attending over a year ago as, in common with so many, believed that the CofE was not properly proclaiming the biblical word of God and becoming increasingly involved in "woke".
    Through his on line ministry we were introduced to Brett Murphy and decided to attend his church, Emmanuel, on a regular basis. This involves us in a round trio of almost 100 miles each time we attend.
    We watched your proceedings and felt that there was not a proper balance. Nobody had asked the congregation of Emmanuel though it was alluded to but with little conviction.
    We noted you had understandable difficulty in pronouncing "Morecambe". This indicated to us that you are probably know nothing of its location, history and social problems. It is important you are aware of these and the way they affect Emmanuel.
    Morecambe is a Victorian seaside resort which owed its then prosperity to tourism. This was true until about the sixties when cheap air travel made it possible for its traditional visitors to fly to the resorts of sunny Spain and its guaranteed weather. This spelt the decline of Morecambe, as with other such resorts, to what it is today, one of the most financially depressed areas in the UK.
    Emmanuel did not escape. It is a tumbledown church with its garden growing on the roof much to the detriment of the masonry. The east door can not be opened for fear it would cause the tower to collapse.
    This is what confronted Brett (and his wife) on his arrival early last year when he reopened the church, following Covid, with a congregation of two elderly people, the last of the previous Emmanuel congregation.
    Since that time he has built up the congregation to be larger than the congregation of the leafy church we left which has existed for well over 100 hundred years.
    Unlike any other church I know Emmanuels doors are not locked shut for six and a half days a week, open only for Sunday morning services. Its doors are open everyday. It provides a community cafe and shop which caters for those without hope. The first Sunday of each month there is a "parish lunch" to which all are invited. Several attend the lunch who do not attend the service but amazingly, because of the fellowship offered, start to come to church because they feel cared for and belong. It is an amazing thing to witness coming from a suburban parish.
    I could go on and talk about the young girl that had been stabbed that fell into church whilst we were having a reenactment of a passover supper (something we have never been to following 50 years church attendance) She became a regular member of the congregation and openly spoke of the love she received which she had not received anywhere before. The homeless he personally takes under his wing and helps to find new accommodation most of whom join the fellowship of the congregation.
    During all your deliberations the only words we recognised were "Brett Murphy". The way you said them were of an ordinary cleric which you would find in any parish. The way we heard them was of a devout Christian working tirelessly during each day (and night) administering the word of the Lord with such enthusiasm and purpose that causes the congregation to continue increase in size.
    One is reminded of the gospel story where the Pharasees were criticising Jesus for performing miracles on the Sabbath. Brett (and his wife) are quietly and without notoriety performing miracles in Morecambe. He seems to be receiving the same treatment.
    The future of the Church depends on people like Brett and his wife. Your lack of support will cause there to be no gospel believing churches for us or anybody else to attend, no matter the distance.
    The wishes of the congregation must be respected.
    End
    The support he gets from his congregation is beyond belief.

The word is pretty clear, but the world around them caring for us their flock is bumpy. Plus, when governing bodies amended and steered the word into new directions, they stood so firmly when taking on holy orders . Any vicar who thought of moving to Free Church of England will probably have to reconsider her/his options. In mean time CofE continue to make the word fit their worldview. Sad sad times for all. But we have the word and where that is, we still have hope. I pray for all involved and for heardened hearts in all camps.

      @@stuartskooler hard times indeed. The trouble is I'm a bit late to Anglicanism. I grew up with a Pentecostal pastor for a dad, where we often had to pray not thanking God for his provision, but in faith that he would provide, later on spent 10 years in the Vineyard where church planting was something you did while you did a job, and likewise 10 years church planting in New frontiers which was similar. Once your church grew to the size where you absolutely had to employ someone, you did. There were very few ready made parishes or churches to just walk in to. No stipends, pensions or houses with the job. Yet look around at the churches that are growing in the UK.
      I often wonder if the whole model is just wrong and based in a historical era that has passed.

In UK we have many old churches that are empty it's like the estate and parish system bare no resemblance to the people who live within the boundaries. Most people work, we know and live in the world. Our pastors, Vicars, priests are our shephards, it's hard for them. But maybe that's part of their journey? Can't recall many of the church fathers having it easy. I pray that all involved can find peace.
