Derbyshire Village Mission, founded in 1916, aims to share the message of Jesus with the people of Derbyshire. It tries to work in conjunction with as many church denominations as possible, to provide services at very low costs.
Famous quotes containing the words village and/or mission:
“Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“We can come up with a working definition of life, which is what we did for the Viking mission to Mars. We said we could think in terms of a large molecule made up of carbon compounds that can replicate, or make copies of itself, and metabolize food and energy. So that’s the thought: macrocolecule, metabolism, replication.”
—Cyril Ponnamperuma (b. 1923)
