The CofE currently has over 16,000 parish churches and more than 20 buildings each year are being closed down. People are becoming less committed to joining us for worship on Sunday but this doesn’t mean they have given up on God! The wider community still has a lot of goodwill towards their parish churches when marking rites of passage with weddings, baptisms and funerals, participating in major festivals like Christmas, Easter, Harvest and Remembrance Sunday as well as generously giving time and money to support village fetes, concerts and fund-raising events. Parish Link August/September 2019….5 We can also take encouragement by realising that every day dozens of people are slipping into our nine parish churches for a few moments of peace and quiet; some are tourists and others are coming to pay their respects at the gravestone of a loved one. Formal worship can be a struggle for some people but they still appreciate being able to sit alone soaking up the peaceful atmosphere; perhaps thinking about our stained- glass windows or reflecting on beautiful flower arrangements. Just to sit quietly in a place where Christians have worshipped for hundreds of years can bring an awareness of God’s presence. These ancient walls and columns have been around for centuries and will outlast all the modern structures that are hastily erected as shopping malls and places of entertainment. However, if we are to do more than manage a steady decline then fresh vision is needed. It’s here that we may draw inspiration from the words of King Solomon: “Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.” (Proverbs 29:18). Fairly soon after Bishop Rachel was appointed as the Bishop of Gloucester she launched a Vision Consultation. You may remember three years ago when each of our parish churches spent a few minutes during Sunday worship considering these questions: Church Community Wider Community What is the Holy Spirit What is your impression saying to us in this of the CofE in your local Diocese? community? What is your dream or What is your hope or vision for the Church in vision for the local our Diocese in five years’ community in the next five time? years? What could we do to How might the Church be realise this vision? part of this? The 380 parish churches in Gloucester Diocese were asked to provide feedback which resulted in a new Vision Statement based on the wonderful promise of Jesus Christ: “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly”(John 10: 10). Every so often I ponder over what Jesus means by “having life more abundantly”. Perhaps to those whose mindset is about consumerism the promise of Jesus is all about getting richer? But surely what Jesus is really offering is love, forgiveness and guidance. It’s a quality of life lived Parish Link August/September 2019….6 at a higher plane. It’s a relationship that can begin straight away, yet continues beyond death and for all eternity. This promise of Jesus is even more meaningful when set in the context of his earlier words:

  • Bagendon Draft 1.0
    VCH Gloucestershire: Volume XVI, Bagendon Draft 1.0 BAGENDON THE VILLAGE OF BAGENDON is situated 21 km. (13 miles) south-east of Gloucester and 5 km. (3 miles) north of Cirencester. The parish lies within the valley of the river Churn, which forms part of its eastern boundary, whilst the village lies across one of the river’s tributaries. Although the parish was the site of a significant prehistoric settlement, the ditches of which have divided Bagendon from the neighbouring estate of North Cerney since at least the 9th century, the medieval and modern village has never been populous. The construction of a turnpike between Cirencester and Cheltenham accelerated development along its course, spurring the fringe of Bagendon to acquire a suburban quality during the 20th century. Nevertheless, the abiding characteristic of the parish remains rural and agricultural, with only the ancient mill providing any significant industrial activity before recent times. LANDSCAPE, SETTLEMENT AND BUILT CHARACTER BOUNDARIES The parish measured 1,106 a. in 1792,1 and still in 1841, recalculated to 1,146 a. in 1891.2 The parish is long and narrow in shape, measuring almost 5 km. (c.3 miles) from north to south and 1½ km. (c.1 mile) across from east to west, although in places it contracts to less than 500 m. (c.546 yds) in width. The boundaries of the parish were depicted on the enclosure map of 1792,3 and for much of their length they follow clear topographical features such as roads and waterways. To the east and north, the boundary is defined by the river Churn, its tributary the Bagendon brook, a road running north from the brook to Woodmancote, and a lane running south-west to the brook.
