Joining patch surface to other surfaces

Rhino Rhino for Windows

I am trying to join these surfaces together so they can form a closed solid.
the intent is to model complex curved surfaces for CNC.
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong
The patch will not seem to join with any surrounding surface.
