  • A Vicar's Life
    A Vicar’s Life: Rural communities at the heart of BBC documentary Four clergy in the Diocese of Hereford were the focus of A Vicar’s Life, a six-part documentary series broadcast on BBC Two in 2018. The observational documentary followed three established vicars and a new curate over a six-month period as they ministered at the heart of rural communities, christening babies, marrying couples and burying loved ones. Camera crews spent six months capturing the life and times of parishes stretching from the beautiful small market town of Much Wenlock in the north of the diocese, to Breinton and the west of Hereford and up into the Black Mountains. However, this series was no Vicar of Dibley as their modern day rural ministry sees them tackle pressing social problems of today including, homelessness, dementia, farm sell offs and supporting refugees. This is all against the backdrop of a Church looking to grow today’s generation of Christians, as well as balance the books and maintain hundreds of historic churches. The series shows inspiring local leadership sharing a Christian message of hope and the breadth of church experiences, which are ensuring there is a church for the future for all people in all places. The Bishop of Hereford, the Rt Revd, Richard Frith said: ‘I’m delighted that the spotlight is on the worship and faith in action in our rural diocese and on the incredibly valuable role our clergy and church members play in communities large and small. ‘In these times of austerity cuts and a reduction in the voluntary sector the Church is often the only organisation left helping those in need, particularly in our very rural parts where the church building itself is the only focal place where a community can gather together.

  • Cycle of Prayer
    Cycle of Prayer 08 September 2019 - 11 January 2020 Diocese of Chester Key: C = Clergy LM = Licensed Lay Minister (Reader) (Pastoral Worker) (Youth Worker) Diocesan entries from the Anglican Cycle of Prayer are in italics. Chester Diocesan Board of Finance. Church House, 5500 Daresbury Park, Daresbury, Warrington WA4 4GE. Tel: 01928 718834 Chester Diocesan Board of Finance is a company limited by guarantee registered in England (no. 7826) Registered charity (no. 248968) Foreword I’ll never forget, after a long walk with my Dad, in Pendle, Lancashire, sipping a pint in a pub and chatting to the locals. Five minutes later I was surprised to turn to see my Dad placing his arthritic hand into the dirty palms of a particularly burly local farmer as they bowed their heads in prayer. I didn’t quite know where to look or what to do, so I lowered my head and kept quiet. It seemed like the right thing to do, and it helped me avoid the gaze of the growing number of amused boozy onlookers. That was my first and slightly embarrassing introduction to prayer. Since then I’ve travelled a long way, but I still remember the first tentative steps I took for myself. I also remember just how uncomfortable and alien praying felt to me. For those well versed in the lifelong discipline of prayer, it can perhaps be easy to forget just how strange the whole thing can be to start. I am grateful to one good colleague from many years ago who shared with me the William Temple quote: ‘When I pray, coincidences happen, when I don’t they don’t.’ As you pray during this period, please pray for those who are just starting and giving it a go.

  • Surnames As a Science
    m KIN AMES AS A SCIENCE ROBERT FERGUSON, M.P., F.S.A., F.S.A. (SCOT.) ; AUTHOR OF "THE TEUTONIC NAME-SYSTEM." xo LONDON : GEORGE ROUTLEDGE AND SONS, BROADWAY, LUDGATE HILL, NEW YORK : 9, LAFAYETTE PLACE. 1883. LONDON : R. CLAY, SONS, AND TAYLOR, BREAD STREET HILL. TO MRS. R. H. DANA (nee LONGFELLOW), OF BOSTON, MASS., IN MEMORY OF EARLY AND VALUED FRIENDSHIP, AND OF DAYS NOT TO BE FORGOTTEN, PASSED AT CRAGIE HOUSE, THIS LITTLE VOLUME IS INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR. PREFACE. THAT portion of our surnames which dates back to Anglo-Saxon times, and so forms a part of the general system by which Teutonic names are governed, is distinctly a branch of a science, and as such has been treated by the Germans, upon whose lines I have generally endeavoured to follow. It has been a part of my object to show that this portion of our surnames is a very much larger one than has been generally supposed, and that it includes a very great number of names which have hitherto been otherwise accounted for, as well as of course a great number for which no explanation has been forthcoming. Nevertheless, while claiming for my subject the dignity of a science, I am very well aware that the question as to how far I have myself succeeded in treating it scientifically is an entirely different one, vi PREFACE. and one upon which it will be for others than myself to pronounce an opinion. This work is of the nature of a supplement to one which I published some time ago under the title of The Teutonic Name-system applied to the Family- names of France, England, and Germany (Williams and Norgate), though I have been obliged, in order to render my system intelligible, to a certain extent to go over the same ground again.

  • Anglo-Saxon Literature
    ANGLO-SAXON LITERATURE BY JOHN EARLE, M.A. PREFACE. The bulk of this little book has been a year or more in type; and, in the mean time, some important publications have appeared which it was too late for me to profit by. Among such I count the “Corpus Poeticum Boreale” by Dr. Gudbrand Vigfusson and Mr. York Powell; the “Epinal Gloss” and Alfred‟s “Orosius” by Mr. Sweet, for the Early English Text Society; an American edition of the “Beowulf” by Professors Harrison and Sharp; Ælfric‟s translation of “Alcuin upon Genesis,” by Mr. MacLean. To these I must add an article in the “Anglia” on the first and last of the Riddles in the Exeter Book, by Dr. Moritz Trautmann. Another recent book is the translation of Mr. Bernhard Ten Brink‟s work on “Early English Literature,” which comprises a description of thevi Anglo-Saxon period. This book is not new to me, except for the English dress that Mr. Kennedy has given to it. The German original has been often in my hand, and although I am not aware of any particular debt, such as it would have been a duty and a pleasure to acknowledge on the spot, yet I have a sentiment that Mr. Ten Brink‟s sympathising and judicious treatment of our earliest literature has been not only agreeable to read, but also profitable for my work. CHAPTER I. A PRELIMINARY VIEW. ANGLO-SAXON literature is the oldest of the vernacular literatures of modern Europe; and it is a consequence of this that its relations with Latin literature have been the closest.

  • Economic Migrants? Continental Moneyers' Names on the Tenth
    Economic Migrants? Continental moneyers’ names on the tenth-century English coinage1 Veronica Smart University of St Andrews It has long been recognised and commented upon, that a significant number of the moneyers of the tenth century coinage in England bear names which are neither Old English, nor Scandinavian, but originated on the mainland continent of Europe. This was particularly evident amongst the intelligible names on the St Edmund memorial coinage of East Anglia2 but this class of names also appears widely throughout the country up to Edgar’s reform, and to a lesser extent thereafter. All scholars of personal names, especially those working on the early mediaeval period, will be familiar with Forssner’s work on con- tinental names in England, part of that great burst of activity, mostly centred on Uppsala, in the earlier part of the twentieth century, which gave us what are still standard reference works today.3 However, from the point of view of the moneyers’ names, at that time there had been little progress after Hildebrand’s catalogue of the Stockholm collect- ion4 and the British Museum catalogue of the Anglo-Saxon collection of 1887.5 Stockholm then had only five coins dating from before Edgar’s reform of c. 973, so onomasts were heavily dependent on the British Museum lists. The coins actually in that collection are for the 1 I would like to acknowledge, with many thanks, the invaluable assistance of Dr C. S. S. Lyon, who read an earlier draft of this paper and was not only able to re- fine the attribution of coins in western and west central Mercia, formerly all class- ified as North-western, but to supply information on coins not previously known to me, and generally to offer many helpful suggestions.

  • The Old English Version of Bede's Ecclesiastical History of the English
    THE OLD ENGLISH VERSION OF BEDEÕS ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH PEOPLE translated by Thomas Miller In parentheses Publications Old English Series Cambridge, Ontario 1999 PREFACE. I, Bede, servant of Christ and priest, send greeting to the well beloved king Ceolwulf. And I send you the history, which I lately wrote about the Angles and Saxons, for yourself to read and examine at leisure, and also to copy out and impart to others more at large; and I have confidence in your zeal, because you are very diligent and inquisitive as to the sayings and doings of men of old, and above all of the famous men among our people. For this book either speaks good of the good, and the hearer imitates that, or it speaks evil of the evil, and the hearer flees and shuns the evil. For it is good to praise the good and blame the bad, that the hearer may profit. If your hearer be reluctant, how else will he gain instruction? I have written this for your profit and for your people; as God chose you out to be king, it behoves you to instruct your people. And that there may be the less doubt whether this be true, I will state the sources of my narrative. II. My first assistant and teacher was the venerable abbot Albinus, a man who had travelled much and studied, and was the best scholar in England. He told me chiefly about Theodorus, of blessed memory, who was bishop in Canterbury, and of the abbot Adrianus, under whom he had chiefly studied.

  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2017
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2017 The Porvoo Declaration commits the churches which have signed it ‘to share a common life’ and ‘to pray for and with one another’. An important way of doing this is to pray through the year for the Porvoo churches and their Dioceses. The Prayer Diary is a list of Porvoo Communion Dioceses or churches covering each Sunday of the year, mindful of the many calls upon compilers of intercessions, and the environmental and production costs of printing a more elaborate list. Those using the calendar are invited to choose one day each week on which they will pray for the Porvoo churches. It is hoped that individuals and parishes, cathedrals and religious orders will make use of the Calendar in their own cycle of prayer week by week. In addition to the churches which have approved the Porvoo Declaration, we continue to pray for churches with observer status. Observers attend all the meetings held under the Agreement. The Calendar may be freely copied or emailed for wider circulation.
