The Diocese of Exeter tells us “This is crucial for the church’s direction in the coming years. The outcomes could have far-reaching consequences for the mission and unity of the church but this is a conversation that has been going on already for many years. Sadly, in the past, this has not always been a helpful conversation and has sometimes been conducted in confrontational ways and with polarised views. We can do better. If we are committed to listen to one another, to articulate our own views with love and respect, and to make space for voices we have not heard thus far, we could have a really fruitful encounter. To help this conversation, the Church of England has developed Living in Love and Faith, a set of resources and a call to talk, listen, and feedback. The resources include a book; a website and learning hub with videos, podcasts, and more; group material to guide the conversation; and ways of feeding reflections back. It is important that you take part. This process will contribute to decision-making in the Church of England in 2022. We can be certain that there are loud voices who wish to be heard during it. We need other voices also to contribute, so that we have as broad, inclusive, and grace-filled listening as possible. Please join in.” The intention is to run a 5 week course later in the year for the churches in Cadbury Deanery and feedback from the course will be passed on to General Synod. Further details on the course will follow. 3 Rector’s Notes Lewis's 'Welcome Fund'. The generosity of spirit of so many people has been a June 5th real joy to see.

It is early Celtic interlaced work such as is not found elsewhere in England except in Northumbria.

    CSO/19/9 Cabinet 13 March 2019 NOTICES OF MOTION Report of the County Solicitor Recommendation: that consideration be given to any recommendations to be made to the County Council in respect of the Notices of Motion set out hereunder having regard to the relevant factual briefing/background papers and any other representations made to the Cabinet. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Notices of Motion submitted to the County Council by the Councillors shown below have been referred to the Cabinet in accordance with Standing Order 8(2) - for consideration, reference to another committee or to make a recommendation back to the Council. A factual ‘Briefing Note/Position Statement’ prepared by the relevant Head of Service is also included, to facilitate the Cabinet’s discussion of each Notice of Motion. (a) Public Health (Councillor Connett) Devon County Council notes: * the vital role played by Public Health in helping Devon residents to lead healthier lives by, for example, avoiding diseases, unwanted pregnancies, support to stop smoking, and eating better; * with grave concern the announcement of a further £85m cut to the Public Health Budget, as one of 12 Ministerial statements published by the Government on the last day of the Parliamentary term before Christmas, only weeks after the Secretary of State for Health described prevention as his priority; and * this is on top of cuts to the Public Health budget announced since Summer 20 * 15, now totalling just over £600 million. This Council meeting further notes: * the comments of the Health Foundation, who described these cuts as a false economy and who have calculated that an additional £3bn a year is required to reverse the impact of government cuts to the Public Health grant to date and have called for this increased budget to be allocated according to need; and * the warnings from the King’s Fund that such cuts could put pressure on councils to cut non-statutory sexual health prevention services, which could lead to more sexually transmitted infections and unplanned pregnancies.

  • Holy Cross Rector's Report 2020
    Holy Cross, Crediton - Rector's Report APCM October 2020 It hardly seems like 18 months since our last APCM when I gave my initial Rector's report, about a month after my Induction as Rector. Time, indeed, passes swiftly. 2019 My arrival in the parish was just before the beginning of Lent and it was good to see the Lent study groups meeting throughout the Lenten season. I was delighted to see a range of courses offered and underpins my belief that study and learning are an important part of our common life together as Christians. We kept Holy Week with Compline and a devotional address on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, followed by the customary acts of worship on Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter Day. My first Lent, Holy Week and Easter at Holy Cross was truly memorable! At the beginning of June we were treated to a spectacular Flower Festival on the theme of 'Colours of the Wind'. It was much enjoyed and those visiting numbered into the thousands. Events such as these are missional because they provide an opportunity to welcome people and to tell them something of the Christian story. Devon County Council declared St Boniface as patron saint of Devon during early June and we held a joint service to celebrate this. It was led by The Bishop of Crediton and the Roman Catholic Bishop of Plymouth. We began our worship at Holy Cross before moving to the statue in Newcombe's Meadow, with the final part of the service at St Boniface RC church.
