Lent, Holy Week and Easter at Norwich Cathedral Cathedral.Org.Uk a Special Season in the Christian Year Lent, Holy Week and Easter at Norwich Cathedral cathedral.org.uk A special season in the Christian year Picture: Paul Hurst It is remarkable how in our contemporary culture, in which Christianity has lost so much of its wider resonance, the idea of ‘giving something up for Lent’ still has such a wide purchase. This may be because it is seen to fit in so neatly to our obsession with self-improvement: Lent as a personal test of self-control – can I go the limit without alcohol, without meat, without chocolate? These ambitions may be worthwhile, but they have little to do with Lent. The essence of this season is to reconnect ourselves with God’s will for us. At the heart of Christian discipleship, Jesus tells us, is to take up our cross in order that we might faithfully follow him to Calvary and to the tomb, that we might come to share his resurrection life. Jesus calls us not to exercise our own As you make your pilgrimage through willpower but to surrender ourselves to the forty days of Lent, we invite you his will. to join your journey with ours in the This Lent, rather than exploring the Cathedral. Through worship, music, extent of our self-control, God invites addresses, and reflection, we will seek us to let go of our own preoccupations to grow evermore deeply into God’s and personal obsessions, to abandon love for us as shown in the death and our determination to be in charge of as resurrection of Jesus Christ, so that we much as possible in our lives. may all come to share in the joy of his When we do we may find ourselves Easter victory over death.

  • 1 a Summary of Recommendations
    A SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS (Figures in parenthesis refer to paragraphs of the Report dealing with these issues). General Synod 1. The overall size of the General Synod should be in the region of 470 to 480. (14-21) 2. The current formula for calculating the number of elected proctors and lay members should remain. (20) 3. The balance of elected proctors and lay members between the two provinces should be moved from 68/32 to 70/30. (21) 4. The representation of suffragan bishops should be seven (four from Canterbury and three from York). (22-23) 5. When a See is vacant, and provided that a suffragan bishop from that diocese is not already an elected member of the Synod, the bishop charged with responsibility for the diocese during the vacancy should be entitled to attend and speak, but not vote. (24-26) 6. Majority: There should be new special constituencies for archdeacons of eight from Canterbury and four from York, to be elected from all archdeacons in the respective provinces. (32-40) 7. There should be a national constituency for cathedral deans of five. (41-42) 8. Majority : The electorate for proctorial elections to the General Synod should be expanded to include clergy with permission to officiate (who would substantially comprise retired clergy) elected to a diocesan synod, who should also be eligible to stand for election to the General Synod. (43-49) 9. The seat on the Synod for the Chaplain General of Prisons should be retained. (50-51) 10. There should be a constituency of seven for the armed forces: at least three to be clergy and at least three to be lay.

  • Norwich Diocesan Synod
    NORWICH DIOCESAN SYNOD Minutes of a meeting held at Northgate High School, East Dereham, NR19 2EU Saturday 23rd March 2019 The Chair was taken by The Revd Canon Sally Theakston (Chair of the House of Clergy) OPENING PRAYERS Opening prayers were led by David Anderson (Repps). 1. THE MINUTES OF THE MEETING HELD ON 13th OCTOBER 2018 Under item 3 on page 1 David Griffith (Thetford and Rockland) stated the amendments made to the minutes for 23rd June 2018 were incorrect and should state the following correction: “…The Standing Advisory Committee (SACRE) is responsible for the production of the locally Agreed Syllabus for RE which is given to schools once the Agreed Syllabus Conference have written it…” The minutes were then approved and signed as a true record. 2. MATTERS ARISING FROM THE PREVIOUS MEETING There were no matters arising. Before commencing item 3 the Diocesan Secretary promulgated the following:- “At its February 2019 group of sessions, held in London, the General Synod resolved that Amending Canon No. 38 be made promulged and executed. Amending Canon No.38 replaces the former Canon B 43 (relations with other Churches) and Canon B 44 (local ecumenical projects) with a new Canon B 43 to be entitled “Of ecumenical relations.” 3. LENT APPEAL 2019 The Bishop of Lynn first asked permission for guest speakers The Revd Canon Richard Bartlett (Director of Mission Engagement at USPG) and Davidson Solanki (USPG Programme Manager for Asia) to present to Synod. Approval was given. 1 The Bishop of Lynn introduced this item by explaining that in the intervening years of supporting Papua New Guinea, this year the chosen 2019 Lent Appeal did not have a direct connection with the Diocese but a close working relationship with USPG and the work they are doing to prevent human trafficking.

  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2021
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2021 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. The Prayer Diary is updated once a year. For corrections and updates, please contact Ecumenical Officer, Maria Bergstrand, Ms., Stockholm Diocese, Church of Sweden, E-mail: [email protected] JANUARY 3/1 Church of England: Diocese of London, Bishop Sarah Mullally, Bishop Graham Tomlin, Bishop Pete Broadbent, Bishop Rob Wickham, Bishop Jonathan Baker, Bishop Ric Thorpe, Bishop Joanne Grenfell.

These notes are intended to supplement the information given in the Benefice Profile, adding a slightly wider perspective and with some further information. The Parishes and this job We are looking to appoint an Interim (for a term of two years) House for Duty Priest in the Waterside benefice, set in the centre of the tranquil and beautiful Norfolk Broads. Currently four parishes, the parish of Hickling will be moving to join the Coastal Group of Parishes under The Revd Canon Catherine Dobson. In the short-term, Catherine is taking the lead in pastoral care and worship in Hickling, and in time, pastoral reorganisation will make this change a formal one. The Benefice Profile has been prepared as though Hickling has moved to the Coastal Group of Parishes, although formal confirmation of this still awaits the completion of the pastoral scheme. The three remaining parishes in the Waterside Group, Ludham, Catfield and Potter Heigham, will themselves be working towards a closer partnership with the neighbouring United Benefice of St Benedict, and its incumbent, The Revd David Smith, will be licensed to the Waterside Group, with the successful candidate for the Waterside post being in turn licensed to The United Benefice of St Benedict.

    WYMONDHAM COLLEGE 1964 MAGAZINE ALDERMAN SAM PEEL It is with deep regret that we record the death of Alderman Sam Peel, who was Chairman of the Norfolk Education Committee from 1941 until March of this year and a Governor of the School from its opening in 1951 until his death on the 18th May ; in his passing the school has lost one of its best friends and supporters . His name is indelibly linked with Wymondham College, for the first permanent building, named Peel Hall, contains within its walls the foundation stone laid by him in July, 1955 . He worked persistently for the causes that seemed to him worthwhile-the advancement of Wymondham College was one of them and rejoiced whole- hearted in their good fortune and success . Few men have been so free from a desire for personal aggrandisement. Above all he was steadfast in his friendships and possessed a kindliness that made it natural for him to give help where help was needed . Those of us who were fortunate enough to know him, will remember him especially for the inspiring addresses he gave in College Chapel . R.V.M. Volume 2, Number 1 .

  • Rector of the Caister Benefice
    Rector of the Caister benefice Caister-On-Sea and West Caister These notes are intended to supplement the information given in the Parish Profile, adding a slightly wider perspective with some further information. The Parishes and this job This is a post where there is real potential for the churches to grow, not least in the ability to reach out to the wider community and ensure that the worship offered is welcoming and accessible to those who might come. The PCC are open to the appointment of a female or male priest. The previous incumbent who served here for over 20 years made a real effort to connect with community life, not least through involvement in the schools and with the lifeboat, and there is scope to build on this legacy. However, there is a need for fresh thinking and for someone with vision and the willingness to try some new things. The congregations are supportive and welcoming, but recognise, I think, their need for support and for some innovative thinking to help renew the life of the parish, particularly in relation to outreach and mission. Diocese and Deanery The Bishop of Norwich has written an Ethos and Culture Statement, available on the diocesan website (www.dioceseofnorwich.org/jobs), which gives details of our structures and the character of the Diocese. The Diocesan mission strategy, Committed to Growth, was launched in 2007 and has seen growth in discipleship, service and numbers as a result of parishes developing their own growth plans. During 2016, this has been extended through the Diocesan Mission Strategy 2021, “.

Nicholas Dixon November 2018 ii Thesis Summary The Activity and Influence of the Established Church in England, c. 1800-1837 Nicholas Andrew Dixon Pembroke College, Cambridge This thesis examines the various ways in which the Church of England engaged with English politics and society from c. 1800 to 1837. Assessments of the early nineteenth-century Church of England remain coloured by a critique originating in radical anti-clerical polemics of the period and reinforced by the writings of the Tractarians and Élie Halévy. It is often assumed that, in consequence of social and political change, the influence of a complacent and reactionary church was irreparably eroded by 1830.

These notes are intended to supplement the information given in the Parish Profile, adding a slightly wider perspective with some further information. The Parishes and this job These two benefices have begun working together since the departure of their incumbents, but part of the challenge for the person appointed will be to deepen the friendship and collaboration between the three parishes, whilst recognising the need for each church to retain its own identity and particular vocation. There are opportunities to serve and reach out to both the resident population, as well as the many visitors to this part of East Anglia. Central to the role of all our clergy is the need to encourage and nurture the vocation of the lay members of our churches, recognising that ministry and mission belong to all God’s people. In part, this is a theological imperative, but it is also driven by the need to rethink and refocus ministry in a period that is challenging for the church as it is for every other voluntary organisation and business. The Diocese is at an interesting and exciting point with a new vision emerging under a still relatively new diocesan bishop.
