Tuesday 8th 10-12pm Private Prayer at St Michael & All Angels, Thursley Revd Hannah writes: Readings - Sunday 29th November Advent is the time of waiting and hoping and longing for the promises of God to be fulfilled. This year there is a real sense of waiting and longing. We are First Reading Isaiah 64: 1-9 waiting to see if we will be able to hug our loved ones this Christmas. We are waiting to find out what the restrictions might be regarding how many people Second Reading Psalm 80: 1-8, 18-20[or 80. 1-8] can gather together. I am concerned that as a society we are longing so much for short term gains, being able to gather with our families, that we risk Gospel 1 Corinthians 1: 3-9 long term losses. As a family we are erring on the side of caution, so for only the third time in my life, I won’t be seeing my sister on Christmas day. Amidst Collect the waiting and longing of Advent we can lose sight of the hope that Almighty God, as your kingdom dawns, turn us from the darkness of sin to the Christmas offers. We need to remember that God came down, to a broken and hurting world, and stepped in to the mess with love, hope, light and light of holiness, that we may be ready to meet you in our Lord and Saviour, peace. Jesus Christ. Amen Let us continue to pray for the Nation each day as encouraged by our Archbishops see www.churchofengland.org/PrayerForTheNation Advent Readings Ian and Sara Wilson-Soppitt have kindly agreed to record readings throughout Advent from the 2nd December and we will be uploading Day of the week Daily theme Sunday Family, friends and loved ones them to our YouTube channel.

  • Dear Members of GCCA the Summer Term Has
    Dear Members of GCCA The summer term has begun and with it comes my apologies for the distinct lack of a newsletter last term – however, things have been a little busy, as you will see. The Cathedral Choir had a fabulous Lent term – highlights included the liturgies of Epiphany-tide Procession, Candlemas, a visit to Croydon Minster for our girl choristers where they sang Evensong jointly with the girl choristers and adults of Croydon Minster Choir, Ash Wednesday, a fundraising concert for their tour fund by the girl choristers at St. Nicolas’ Church, Guildford, the girl choristers’ residential weekend at St. Catherine’s School, Bramley, complete with concert, the services of Holy Week and Easter and a five day choir tour to Sanlúcar la Mayor, Cordoba and Sevilla, Spain. As this term begins, twelve of our choristers have just taken part in the English Touring Opera Production of Tosca at G-Live on 2 May, and I have just returned from giving the opening organ recital in the tenth international organ festival in Palma, Mallorca. For me, a personal highlight of last term was the news that I have been accorded the honour of being made a Fellow of the Royal School of Church Music, and this will be presented to me later this calendar year. I hope you enjoy this edition of the newsletter and look forward to seeing you at any of our regular services. Choral Evensong is sung daily (except during choir holidays) on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at 5.30 p.m. and on Sundays at 6.00 p.m.

It also includes one parish in a London borough and one in rural West Sussex. In the northeast, it is largely suburban, but moving south and west, there are a number of distinct towns and numerous villages. This part of the diocese has a rural feel, but good road and rail links to London and elsewhere mean that there is much commuting within these areas. The population is just over a million, rising in line with the national rate. Notwithstanding the rural areas, the average population density is above average, both regionally and nationally. The area is rightly perceived as affluent, but there are other perspectives. There are surprisingly high levels of domestic and sexual abuse. The population is quite mobile, but the cost of housing is very high and there are issues of homelessness in the towns.

Once again the Ash and Blackwater Valley Rotary Club are sponsoring the event with all proceeds from the night going to the Shooting Star Chase Children’s Hospice.

Tickets for the event will be £10.00 and will be on sale from 1st August 2014. The concert will once again be “Admission by Ticket”.

  • Guildford Cathedral
    Guildford Cathedral EDWARD MAUFE AND THE SETTING OF THE NEW CATHEDRAL Introduction This paper summarises what is known of the architect’s plans for the setting and landscaping of Guildford Cathedral. It has been prepared following extensive searches in the Cathedral archives, RIBA library and drawings collection (Maufe papers), and contemporary secondary sources, including articles and reports in The Architect and Building News and The Builder. Reference has also been made to other sources relating to proposals for the road network, housing development and townscape around the Cathedral, including those which formed part of G.A. Jellicoe’s Outline plan for Guildford (1945) and his later proposals (1954) for the creation of a ‘garden’ suburb in Onslow Village West, outside the Cathedral boundary. Summary 1. The Cathedral stands on land which was once a royal forest and later formed part of the estates of the Onslow family. 2. The Onslows began to sell land to the north-west of Guildford for house-building in the late-nineteenth century, including (1921) land on the lower slopes of Stag Hill. 3. Lord Onslow gave the Diocese of Guildford a rectangular plot on the crown of the hill for the new Cathedral, conveying the land in 1936; the Diocese also acquired a further plot to the west and a narrow strip to the south to provide access to the Cathedral. 4. The brief for the architectural competition (1930) made no reference to landscaping and the competitors were restricted to putting forward proposals which could be accommodated on the original plot on the crown of the hill.

  • Vistas, Roofscapes and Skyline – a Position Paper by the Guildford Society
    Preserving Guildford’s vistas, roofscapes and skyline – a position paper by The Guildford Society Overview Guildford has been bestowed with a stunning natural location, located as it is in the heart of the North Downs in the River Wey Valley and this topography has created particularly fine sight lines. As the historical county town of Surrey, Guildford’s development has created a number of historic buildings of local and national significance that have created an iconic skyline. Together these have combined to form a key component of The Town’s heritage. It is the Society’s position that these skylines and sight lines be protected for the benefit of current and future generations against damage by development in The Town. As it is impossible to list every sight line and skyline of heritage value in Guildford, developers should demonstrate that there is no significant impact on these by any proposed development. Vistas within Guildford town centre Guildford is frequently called a gap town “and probably owes its location to the existence of a gap in the North Downs where the River Wey is forded by a path commonly known as the ‘Pilgrims’ Way’” between Winchester and Canterbury1. It is also located on the coaching route between London and coastal towns such as Portsmouth, which was a catalyst for creating much of the iconic architecture in Guildford today. On both sides of this river valley there are steep and significant hills, the Mount leading to the Hogs Back to the west, and Pewley Down (with the Castle at its base) and St Martha’s Hill to the east.
