For much of the last century the Church of England was in decline. The world was changing rapidly. But it is very important to remember: The Big Picture • Over two thousand years the story of the Christian church has been one of growth • Across the world, the Christian church is growing steadily In England • Decline has slowed down and levelled off over the last 10 years. • Midweek church attendance has grown rapidly • Many new congregations have grown in all kinds of churches • We have learned important lessons about making disciples • There are growing churches of all traditions Over the three years 2008-2010, all age weekly attendance across the Diocese of Sheffield grew by 1.5% By promoting Church Family, welcoming and inspiring children, and being active in partnership with the local schools and community All Saints’ Woodlands has grown from 60 adults to 130 adults and children over 6 years.

  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2021

    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.

  • Cathedral News

    Cathedral News

    Cathedral News August 2019 – No. 688 From: The Dean We’ve recently gone through the process of Peer Review. After the Chapter had completed a lengthy self-evaluation questionnaire on matters of governance and finance and so on, three reviewers came from other cathedrals to mark our homework. Or rather, to bring an external perspective to bear, and help us refine our thinking about where we are heading as a cathedral. In spite of our natural wariness in advance, only to be expected given the amount of external scrutiny the cathedral has undergone in recent years, it was an encouraging experience. More of that, however, in a future Cathedral News. For now, I want to pick up on a comment made by all three reviewers. They came to us from Liverpool, Winchester, and Ely, and all expressed delight, and surprise, at the splendour of our cathedral: “We had no idea what a marvellous building it is!” For me, their observations provoked two questions... Is it because we all take the building for granted? Or is it because we’ve failed to tell our story effectively? I suspect there is truth behind both these questions. We all know how ‘distance lends enchantment to the view’; and the converse is also clearly true. It is not that familiarity necessarily breeds contempt, but you cannot live in a perpetual state of wonderment. Sir Simon Jenkins, the author of all those books on beautiful houses and railway stations and churches and cathedrals, told of his visit to Exeter: “I came into the cathedral and sat in silence for half an hour, overwhelmed by the beauty of the place.” I have the benefit of being in the cathedral every day, and will often speak of how our vaulted ceiling lifts my heart daily to heaven.

    NURTURING the VOCATION of RETIRED CLERGY October 2018

    NURTURING THE VOCATION OF RETIRED CLERGY October 2018 A brief study undertaken by the Revd Tim Hurren as a sabbatical project with the support of Leeds Diocese and others. Psalm 92:14 They will still bear fruit in old age they will stay fresh and green. Contents Executive Summary page 2 Introduction page 3 Purpose and Scope page 3 Reflection on Key Issues page 5 Some Guidelines for Action page 12 Appendix 1: Methodology page 15 Appendix 2: Acknowledgements page 16 Appendix 3: Resources and References page 17 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1) With up to 40% of stipendiary clergy expected to retire over the next decade or so, it is both vital and timely that Leeds Diocese recognises the challenges and opportunities this presents for reviewing the role of ordained leadership in relation to mission and ministry for the future. This study highlights some of the patterns emerging in just a few parts of the country and there are almost certainly many more examples to draw upon from elsewhere. In particular the Leeds diocesan strategic framework should specifically include the creation of a dynamic partnership with the growing number of ordained retirees. 2) Developing the role of the increasing cohort of retired clergy can best be achieved when full account is taken of other initiatives such as a more ambitious and radical approach to lay leadership and training. The ministry of retirees has the potential to become more effective when expressed within the wider leadership context at parish, deanery and diocesan levels. 3) Nurturing the vocation of retired clergy includes reviewing and implementing appropriate policies and procedures.
