Seen here is a high point of the occasion where the Bishop (the Rt Revd Paul Williams) is presenting the mandate to the Very Revd Nicola Pepperpots Sullivan.

  • Issue No. 6 February to April 2014
    Issue No. 6 February to April 2014 Welcome to the sixth edion of the Newark and Southwell Deanery Newsleer. Dear All, For many in church life the respite following Christmas and Epiphany is already a memory. The Chrisan Calendar will soon lead us to Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday, signalling the beginning of the Lenten season. As we all know Easter will seem for many only a hop, skip and jump way. It is against this familiar backdrop the work of the Deanery proceeds. In January Rev. Stephen Morris was licenced at St. Mary Magdalene, Newark, where he will join colleagues Rev. David Anderton, Rev. Sam Tredwell and Curate Rev. Judith Pollard, thereby bringing the Newark team to full strength. Our thoughts and prayers are with Stephen and his wife Jean as they sele into Bede House and into Newark life. For many the penitenal season of Lent falls into regular and almost expected rounes of services, courses, retreats and other projects — they are all part of the mix. There is something about organised discomfort which aempts to engage and develop challenge that can become somehow expected, even safe. Using the gi of Lent leading to a place of real spiritual growth is an amazing opportunity, but can become stylised and even roune. We would very much like to know what you are planning to do? Please contact the Deanery Office with any plans you have in your parish or group so that different ways in which lent is used can be shared. This year we have Deanery Elecons and there will be changes to personal circumstances.
