Defense of Trinity prompts clash over St John’s chapel closing
The Rev Dr Manning denies claims of unfair treatment for St John’s curates by Trinity Corporation. He says curates’ appointments last a year and salary continues until August. He defends Trinity’s policy, denies dismissal claims, and says vestry visits to St John’s are routine observation, not a sign of change. He declines to predict the January vestry outcome or comment on congregational composition. The Churchman quotes praise for St John’s and questions Trinity’s reduced diocesan apportionment.
