Debate on Home Mission and Central Board in Norfolk
Congregationalists argued over central funding for minister salaries and rural outreach. Supporters urged a London board to supplement poorer counties, while opponents warned of loss of local independence and increased costs. A subcommittee was formed as a vote upheld continuing local funds with broader support.
