Profile for the Parishes Of Profile for the Parishes of St. Nicholas with St Mary’s Great Wakering Foulness and All Saints with St Mary’s Barling Magna Little Wakering The Profile for the Parishes of Great Wakering with Foulness Island and Barling Magna with Little Wakering 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Priest-in-Charge of our parishes since 2008 has recently assumed the additional role of Priest-in-Charge of the nearby parish of St Andrews Rochford with Sutton and Shopland and taken up residence in the Rochford Rectory. We are looking for an Associate Priest and Team Vicar designate to live in the Great Wakering Vicarage and to work with our Priest-in-charge in the care, support and development of all the parishes. This is a response to the ‘Re-imagining Ministry’ document passed by the Diocesan Synod in March 2013. Our Parishes are close to Shoeburyness and Southend-on-sea. Both have good rail links to London, which is about an hour away and used by commuters. Shoeburyness has the historic Shoebury Garrison, now vacated by the army and re-developed as a residential village which retains the original character. Shoeburyness also has two popular beach areas for bathing, walking or water sports. There are a number of shops and businesses and an Asda supermarket which is served by a bus from Great Wakering. Southend-on Sea is the nearest town. It has two commuter rail lines and an expanding airport. It has the usual High Street stores and new library and university buildings in the town centre. Its long pier is a local attraction and renowned as the longest pleasure pier in the world. The coastal area between Shoeburyness and Leigh- on-Sea, a historic fishing port popular for its seafood, is a mixture of colourful and character areas of different types. There is everything from traditional sea front fun to quiet walks and peaceful places to sit. These are enjoyed by visitors and locals alike. The town has two theatres with good quality professional and amateur shows and plays. There are also many well maintained public parks, gardens and woodland areas. Sports facilities are excellent, and include several golf courses, a recently built state of the art swimming and Olympic standard diving pool, and a public sports centre and gym at Garon Park. Southend has two grammar schools as well as a number of other primary and secondary schools. Our villages consist of four churches albeit St Mary’s Church at Foulness Island has now closed and St Mary’s Church in Little Wakering is classified a chapel of ease. 2 The Profile for the Parishes of Great Wakering with Foulness Island and Barling Magna with Little Wakering 2.0 QUALITIES REQUIRED FROM OUR NEW ASSOCIATE PRIEST 1) A prayerful person who is an inspiring preacher 2) Someone who can relate to people of all ages 3) Someone who will have a visible presence in the community 4) A good listener, caring & compassionate 5) Someone with the ability to identify, enable and value the gifts of all members of the congregation. 6) A good communicator, a team person who is ready to listen to, and value, the views and ideas of the PCC and Congregation 3.0 STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF ST NICHOLAS GREAT WAKERING Following an informal discussion with our congregation, we have discovered the following strengths and weaknesses. Strengths Friendly and welcoming congregation Beautiful historic church in an attractive setting Enthusiasm and good teamwork amongst the congregation Committed organist, choir and small music group open to all styles of music Outreach activities including Messy Church & the Broomway Beagle delivered to every household Strong ecumenical links Weaknesses Ageing congregation Ongoing upkeep of a listed building Lack of people to promote local outreach Very active village were we compete for peoples time and attention 3 The Profile for the Parishes of Great Wakering with Foulness Island and Barling Magna with Little Wakering 3.1 STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF ALL SAINTS, BARLING MAGNA Strengths Continuity of Services Community spirit amongst the congregation Messy Church Home Groups Friendly, supportive fellowship A gentle church Uplifting services Churches are of historical interest Lovely atmosphere Weaknesses Congregation size decreasing Limited numbers restrict the amount of community outreach we can achieve At the moment there is a lack of young people attending church, especially teenagers More pastoral care required 4.0 PRIORITIES FOR OUR NEW ASSOCIATE PRIEST AND PARISHES Grow the church membership. Create a Pastoral care team using the gifts within our congregation. Take our full place in the Re-imagined ministry set up. Enable the gifts within our congregation to be used to the full. Maintain a weekly worshipping presence at the heart of the local community. Build on the success of Messy Church Build on the firm foundation of ministry already being experienced in our parish. Enable our churches to move forward into their next phase by equipping us with the necessary tools of discipleship and to develop the potential of our congregations to reach out to new members. To build on good links with the local school and encourage growth involving families and young people. To assist in forging closer links between the congregations of the churches in Barling Magna, Little Wakering, Great Wakering and Rochford. Be actively involved in Deanery and Diocesan initiatives such as Re- Imagining Ministry 4 The Profile for the Parishes of Great Wakering with Foulness Island and Barling Magna with Little Wakering 5.0 ROCHFORD DEANERY – A WIDER VIEW BY RURAL DEAN CANON MIKE LODGE With over 82,000 residents in the Deanery there are eighteen churches scattered over this large geographical area, with parish populations ranging from 700 to 35,000! The East of England plan suggests an increase in housing in the Rochford Deanery of 1450 units by 2015, the population growth having an impact on the Deanery. With the expansion of London Southend Airport it is anticipated that we will see an even higher potential increase in housing and consequential population surge. The churches and parishes are served currently by nine stipendiary priests, reducing to seven by 2025, one of whom is currently 2.5 days in the parish of St Nicholas, Rawreth, and 3.5 days 'Faith in Action' Adviser' for the Bradwell Area; also giving advice across the Diocese. Two recently appointed priests also serve (2 days/week) as Vocations Adviser and Mission Development Adviser and are working closely together to encourage these areas of ministry across the Deanery. The broad range of churchmanship in the Deanery reflects the diversity found within the Church of England as a whole. The biblical model that resonates most with all the parishes is that of 'one body with many members', as found in the Apostle Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, chapter 12. Within each of our parishes the particular gifts brought by stipendiary clergy have an important role to play in the eyes of the laity. It is recognised that both the potential shortage of stipendiary clergy and the ability of some parishes to pay for stipendiary clergy, means that there needs to be a greater focus on ‘Re-imagining ministry’ with regard to other forms of ministry (self- supporting clergy and licensed lay ministry), within the context of the Diocesan strategic priority of a ‘Transforming Presence’. Through ‘Re-imagining Ministry’ much work has been carried out to identify potential Mission and Ministry Units, which is on-going, although serious consideration is being given to the creation of two defined ‘Units’. As part of this process facilitated discussions are being organised in order to respond to a ‘risk assessment’ that has been carried out, enabling ongoing focused decisions to be made with regard to long term objectives. http://www.chelmsford.anglican.org/policies/reimagining-ministry www.rochford-deanery.org.uk 5 The Profile for the Parishes of Great Wakering with Foulness Island and Barling Magna with Little Wakering 6.0 ROCHFORD PARISH OVERVIEW Letter from the Team Rector Designate Since my appointment to Rochford earlier this year while continuing as Priest-in- Charge of Great Wakering w Foulness and Barling Magna & Little Wakering, in a pioneering post as part of a new strategy within the Diocese of Mission and Ministry Units, the possibilities of a fully collaborative ministry are already taking shape. I look forward to sharing this ministry with a colleague soon and expect our churches and parishes to continue to work together in this exciting venture. This appointment offers a unique challenge and environment, as you will discover reading through the profile, for anyone interested in living out their faith and bringing the gospel of Jesus Christ to a special part of South-East Essex. There is opportunity to innovate and build on established practice and enjoy some fun and serious ministry alongside supportive and warm fellowship. It is my belief that whoever is appointed will find a welcoming community both in and outside the church. If you would like to discuss this post informally please feel free to contact me by email or telephone. Rev Alun J. Hurd Email: [email protected] Tel no 01702 817991 Rochford and its Church – a brief description The town of Rochford is in a largely agricultural area, but its good transport links to London, Southend and Chelmsford make it a popular dormitory town. New housing development within the parish is underway, and plans for further growth remain in the pipeline. The Parish Church of Rochford is situated not in the centre of the town, but in the middle of a golf course. It is a beautiful building, steeped in history, and its location makes it a popular venue for weddings.

    From: QQ SHB Enquiries <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 3 Jun 2021 at 13:09 Subject: UC MOD Shoeburyness: Range Sea Danger Area To: Ministry of Defence (MOD) Shoeburyness: Range Sea Danger Area With the summer approaching, it’s timely to remind local sailing clubs and associations of the restrictions in the vicinity of the Foulness and Maplin Sands. QinetiQ operates the live weapons test and evaluation Range in Shoeburyness and on Foulness Island in Essex, known as MOD Shoeburyness. The Range is active Monday to Friday (occasionally at weekends), all year round conducting activities that involve firing and detonating live ammunition, often over long distances out to sea. To enable the Range to work safely and ensure that hazardous activities do not present a risk to members of the public, it operates under the jurisdiction of the Artillery Ranges Byelaws 1936 and the Shoeburyness and District Military Lands Byelaws 1935 (under the Military Lands Acts 1892 to 1903). The byelaws govern the use of the land and rights of access and passage through the byelaw area. The byelaws cover an area of the Thames Estuary and the North Sea and the inner waterway that runs from Havengore Creek across to the River Roach and the River Crouch. This area comprises the Range Sea Danger Area (RSDA), unauthorised entry to this area is both prohibited and dangerous. QinetiQ is responsible for managing access to the RSDA and ensuring that boats, yachts and personal watercraft do not stray into the area, putting themselves and their vessels at risk. In order to help monitor the RSDA whilst the Range is active, QinetiQ uses marine surveillance radar and has a Range Safety Boat which patrols the in area and advises any unauthorised vessels to leave in accordance with the byelaws and in the interests of health and safety.

ITE con- tributes to and draws upon the collective knowledge of the fourteen sister institutes which make up the Natural Environment Research Council, spanning all the environmental sciences. The Institute studies the factors determining the structure, composition and processes of land and freshwater systems, and of individual plant and animal species. It is developing a sounder scien- tific basis for predicting and modelling environ- mental trends arising from natural or man-made change. The results of this research are available to those responsible for the protection, manage- ment and wise use of our natural resources.
