Summary An article exploring how leadership of a parish church weekday Pram Service generated theological reflection on appropriate forms of behaviour for church leaders and congregations. Patterns of lay involvement are examined and lay initiatives are encouraged. Modes of leadership which encourage dependency are critiqued and an alternative model of the mutual interplay of dependence, independence and interdependence, rooted in Trinitarian theology, is offered. Ministerial outcomes are described.
