Remembrance Sunday Before the Service Church at Home Remembrance Sunday Before the Service A very warm welcome to today’s service of Church at Home from the Diocese of Oxford on this Remembrance Sunday. We are delighted that today Bishop Steven Croft will be presiding & Archdeacon Jonathan Chaffey will be preaching. This year Remembrance Sunday will be significantly changed for many, as England enters a second period of lockdown, and we will mark the occasion in ways very different from those we have been familiar with in the past. Yet, however we mark the day, be it in public or in the privacy of our own homes, we will each find our own way to keep silence, to pray and to remember. Remembering is at the very heart of the Christian faith and it is the central act around which our worship revolves as we celebrate the Eucharist together. In the Eucharist we remember the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and give thanks for Christ’s sacrifice of himself for the life of the world. But today, we also recognise and remember the sacrifice made by those who have lost their lives in war, and hold before God all whose lives and families continue to be affected by the mental, physical and spiritual effects of conflict. The purpose of the Act of Remembrance is both to honour those who have made such great sacrifice in the cause of freedom and also to commit ourselves afresh to bringing an end to conflict, division and hatred in the world. As Christians we are called to be ‘people of peace’ as we seek to follow Jesus the ‘Prince of Peace’. As ever, we are hugely grateful to all of our contributors from across the Diocese in parishes, chaplaincies and other organisations, who have given of their time, skills and voice to help lead us in worship this morning, including: All Saints’, High Wycombe; St Frideswide’s, Water Eaton; St Michael and All Angels, Lambourn; The Sea Cadet Corps; The Royal Air Force Association; The RAF Chaplaincy; Jubilee Brass Band; The Royal British Legion and High Wycombe Town Council. Today, as we remember with gratitude, let us each resolve to pray, seek and act to bring the peace of Christ to all whose lives we touch. 2 Film before the service ‘Lest we forget’ The British Army 2020 available online: https://youtu.be/ahGRNKi8-18 Greeting Bishop In the name of the Father. and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. All Amen. Bishop We come before the throne of God with countless crowds from every nation and race, tribe and language. All Blessing and glory and wisdom, thanksgiving and honour, power and might be to our God for ever and ever. Amen. The Bishop welcomes the congregation gathered online and introduces the service. Prayer of Commemoration Bishop Almighty and eternal God, from whose love in Christ we cannot be parted, either by death or life: hear our prayers and thanksgivings for all whom we remember this day; fulfil in them the purpose of your love; and bring us all, with them, to your eternal joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord. All Amen. 3 Hymn Our God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home. Under the shadow of Thy throne Still may we dwell secure; Sufficient is Thine arm alone, And our defence is sure. Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting Thou art God, To endless years the same. A thousand ages in Thy sight Are like an evening gone; Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly, forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. Our God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guard while troubles last, And our eternal home. WorDs: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Music: ‘St Anne’, William Croft (1678-1727) Recorded by members of the Choir of All Saints’ Church, High Wycombe 4 Confession Bishop Let us confess to God the sins and shortcomings of the world; its pride, its selfishness, its greed; its evil distortions and hatreds. Let us confess our share in what is wrong, and our failure to seek and establish that peace which God wills for all his children. All Most merciful God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we confess that we have sinned in thought, word and deed. We have not loved you with our whole heart. We have not loved our neighbours as ourselves. In your mercy forgive what we have been, help us to amend what we are, and direct what we shall be; that we may do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with you, our God. Amen. Absolution Bishop Almighty God, who forgives all who truly repent, have mercy upon you, pardon and deliver you from all our sins, confirm and strengthen you in all goodness, and keep you in life eternal; through Jesus Christ our Lord. All Amen. 5 Gloria in Excelsis All Glory to God in the highest, and peace to his people on earth. Lord God, heavenly King, almighty God and Father, we worship you, we give you thanks, we praise you for your glory. Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father, Lord God, Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world: have mercy on us; you are seated at the right hand of the Father: receive our prayer. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen. The Collect Bishop Let us pray. Silence is kept. Bishop God, our refuge and our strength, bring near the day when wars shall cease and poverty and pain shall end, that earth may know the peace of heaven through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. All Amen. We listen to God speaking through the Scriptures. 6 First Reading Amos 5.18-24 (NRSV) read by Faye Simonds, St Frideswide’s Church, Water Eaton Alas for you who desire the day of the Lord! Why do you want the day of the Lord? It is darkness, not light; as if someone fled from a lion, and was met by a bear; or went into the house and rested a hand against the wall, and was bitten by a snake. Is not the day of the Lord darkness, not light, and gloom with no brightness in it? I hate, I despise your festivals, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies. Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; and the offerings of well-being of your fatted animals I will not look upon. Take away from me the noise of your songs; I will not listen to the melody of your harps. But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. Second Reading 1 Thessalonians 4.13-end (NRSV) read by Ordinary Cadet Ben Peerless But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about those who have died, so that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have died. For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will by no means precede those who have died. For the Lord himself, with a cry of command, with the archangel’s call and with the sound of God’s trumpet, will descend from heaven, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up in the clouds together with them to meet the Lord in the air; and so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words. 7 Hymn Be still, my soul: the Lord is on your side; bear patiently the cross of grief or pain; leave to your God to order and provide; in ev'ry change he faithful will remain. Be still, my soul: your best, your heav'nly Friend through thorny ways leads to a joyful end. Be still, my soul: thy God will undertake to guide the future as he has the past. Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake; all now mysterious shall be bright at last. Be still, my soul: the waves and winds still know his voice who ruled them while he dwelt below. Be still, my soul: when dearest friends depart, and all is darkened in the vale of tears, then shalt thou better know his love, his heart, who comes to soothe thy sorrow and thy fears. Be still, my soul: thy Jesus can repay from his own fullness all he takes away. Be still, my soul: the hour is hast'ning on when we shall be forever with the Lord, when disappointment, grief, and fear are gone, sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored. Be still, my soul: when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. WorDs: Katharina Amalia Dorothea von Schlegel (1697-1768) Music: ‘Finlandia’, Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) Recorded by Susan Holmes & Stephen Holmes, St Michael & All Angels, Lambourn 8 Gospel Reading Matthew 25.

  • Archdeacons' News
    THE ARCHDEACONS’ FORUM for the Church of England and the Church in Wales Archdeacons’ News Issue no. 47 February 2020 from Cameron Watt Archdeacons’ National Development Officer Welcome to the first issue of the Archdeacons’ News of 2020. Over the past few months I have had the enormous privilege of getting to know many of the Archdeacons across England and Wales since starting this role. When I first spoke to Norman Boakes about this role, he waxed lyrical about both the work, but more importantly about the wonderful cohort of people who are called to Archidiaconal ministry. I must pay tribute to Norman, as my predecessor in this role. He built up the role and tirelessly championed Archdeacons across the Church of England and the Church in Wales. As this role develops I am fabulously supported by Husna Louise in Church House, Bishop Chris Goldsmith as the new Director of Ministry, and the Archdeacons’ Forum Executive which is very well led by Archdeacon Stephen Taylor. Over the coming years, I hope to be able to develop the support which is on offer to Archdeacons, and also to help to ensure that the collective wisdom of the Archdeacons is heard at all levels of our central church institutions. Outside of this role I am a part-time parish priest in a rural parish, and have found that combining these two roles keeps me grounded in both of them – long may that continue! The important thing is that I am here to support, pray for, and work alongside you – the Archdeacons who provide so much support, guidance and love for the work of God across our dioceses.

  • Read the Welcome Booklet
    Welcome to the Diocese of Oxford An introduction for new clergy Welcome! As Bishops in this Diocese of Oxford, we are delighted to welcome you to your new ministry. We sincerely hope you will soon feel settled and be able to flourish here. Ministry these days is undoubtedly pressurised but there are good resources in the Diocese to support and help you, and this leaflet is an introduction to some of them. Clearly your gifts are – humanly speaking – the most valuable resources we have. We are therefore committed to offering you the best training opportunities, personal support and encouragement that we can. The Church of England is of course a fairly ‘flat’ organisation and this is a large diocese, but the Area Deans, Archdeacons and Bishops are all committed to your wellbeing, and welcome your being in touch. Naturally you will want to take responsibility for your own flourishing as well. You may well have a spiritual director, cell group, long-term friends, and others who accompany you on your journey. You may also have particular interests, both inside and beyond ministry, that sustain you and give you life. All of that is excellent; we just want the best for you. In these early stages of moving here, your Archdeacon is best placed to help you and make any connections you need. Within the first six months you will see your Area Dean, Archdeacon and Bishops, all of whom are there to help you ‘land’ safely and well. I hope this leaflet will help you (and your spouse if you are married) to understand a little more of the Diocese and the resources available.

  • 4 April 2021 Easter Day Service Sheet
    6 CHORAL EUCHARIST Easter Day Sunday 4 April 2021 12pm Oxford Time Alleluya, Alleluya, hearts to heaven and voices raise! Sing to God a hymn of gladness, sing to God a hymn of praise! A very warm welcome to Christ Church on this Easter Day. Today, with millions of Christians around the world, we celebrate with joy the good news of Easter and the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, from the dead. The Ministers wear vestments of gold to reflect our Easter joy. Our Preacher today is the Venerable Jonathan Chaffey, The Archdeacon of Oxford, concluding his series of broadcast sermons through this Holy Week. Currently, regulations do not permit the Choir to lead services with a congregation. In other services today, members of the congregation come together to receive Communion, accompanied by one of our organists. In this service, our choir are able – in the words of the great Easter hymn – to sing to God their hymns of gladness and of praise, bringing to God the best they can offer as they are called to do. We are glad of all the ways that we can worship together, both under one roof and in our separate homes, on this Easter Day. Although distanced physically, we remain one in Christ, wherever we are, and part of this community. May God bless you as we worship together. If you would like us to keep in touch with you, please make sure we have your contact details by contacting the office cathedraloffice@chch. ox.ac.uk/ 01865 286 869.

  • Fifth Sunday of Easter 10 May 2020
    6 Fifth Sunday of Easter 10 May 2020 Preparing for Worship In this season of Easter, falling in the middle of pandemic and lockdown, much in our everyday lives has changed and is still changing. But the central truth of Christian faith remains the same: Christ, risen, ascended and glorified, is the same yesterday, today and forever. Physically divided, yet spiritually united, we worship our risen Lord Jesus, not ignoring the pain of many and the needs of the world, but because we trust that Christ’s victory over death gives hope for every situation. Today we welcome our new Archdeacon, the Venerable Jonathan Chaffey who was licensed by the Bishop of Oxford in a virtual ceremony attended by the Dean, Assistant Archdeacon, Area Deans and Registrar on 1 May. As such our service takes a slightly different shape from recent weeks and is non-eucharistic. You can find out more about Jonathan in the blog on the Cathedral website and we are delighted to have him and Jane join our community. Sadly, with the Cathedral being closed, his Installation will have to be deferred but we look forward to joining with the local deaneries, members of college and our many Cathedral congregations to celebrate that in due course. The service today is led by the Dean, the Very Revd Professor Martyn Percy, and the reflection given by the Diocesan Canon Precentor, the Revd Canon Dr Grant Bayliss. Responses are made by voices from around the Cathedral community, recorded in their homes and with their families. Music is drawn from both archive material and special lockdown recordings by the Cathedral Choir, the Cathedral Singers and our Organist, Steven Grahl, in their homes.

  • Church at Home Passion Sunday
    Church at Home Passion Sunday 1 On this ffth Sunday of Lent, we turn with Jesus towards Jerusalem and the end of his earthly life: suffering, the cross, and death. But this is only part of the story. We face with Jesus suffering and death, but we face them with the promise that death is not the end. A year after the frst national lockdown, as we are reminded of the pain, loss and grief that the last year has brought, we are also reminded that Jesus promises new life, new hope, and a love that continues. The joint foundation of Christ Church, as a college of the University of Oxford and as the cathedral church of the Diocese of Oxford, is unique. Within this context, the Christ Church community includes undergraduates, postgraduates and academics; clergy; staff and volunteers in numerous departments; two schools; and the musicians of four choirs. In this service, we will hear from a wide cross-section of the members of our community who make our life here so rich. The Diocese of Oxford is the Church of England in Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes. We are more than 1,000 churches, chaplaincies and schools called to be a more Christ-like Church for the sake of God's world. One year ago today, the frst diocesan Church at Home service was broadcast live from the Cathedral. Since then, thousands of people have tuned in to services from across the diocese each week. It is ftting that Church at Home returns to Christ Church today and, wherever you are joining us from, may God bless you as we worship him together.
