Calendar of Intercessions Christmas-Passiontide 2018 Calendar of Intercessions Christmas-Passiontide 2018 to this edition of the prayer diary, which takes us from New Year’s Eve to Passiontide. As usual, it’s a sizable document but designed Welcome to be quick and clear to read, and also to leave space for your own notes. Of course, you do not have to print it all out at once, and you’re welcome to reformat it, if you wish (a Word version is available from my blog, see website below). Sunday entries are designed to look at some of the bigger pictures in our Diocese – sometimes geographical (deaneries, archdeaconries, link dioceses) sometimes issues or activities (Vocations Sunday). If there is an aspect of diocesan life that you’d like included on a Sunday, do let me know. These are followed through the week by daily prayers from all over the diocese, and across the Anglican Communion, including the calendar of saints and other worthy people. Finally, there is space in the daily entries for you to note any prayer requests that have been made to you or your parish, or any special interests you want to remember in your prayers. Please contact me with any comments or suggestions – [email protected] or 01634 814439. I will also be pleased to provide large print copies to any who would find that helpful. The calendar is published on the Diocesan website, and also on www.rochesterworship.wordpress.com where you can find the next quarter’s intercessions (hopefully) as this quarter starts to come to an end.

Quotes from Celebrating the Seasons, compiled by Robert Atwell (Norwich 1999) Sunday Christmas 1 31 December Isaiah 61.10-62.3 John Wyclif, Psalm 148 [or 148.7-end] Reformer, 1384 Galatians 4.4-7 Luke 2.15-21 Gravesend deanery Gravesend Deanery is seeing considerable growth at this time, as new housing is being built especially in the parishes of Swanscombe, Greenhithe and Northfleet and Rosherville, as part of the Ebbsfleet Garden City Development. Please pray for the establishment of church presence in these communities, and for continuing plans for the future of the church in this new town. Pray too for the establishment of new schools as part of this new development, and of the new church school on the site of St George’s C of E School. The churches of Gravesend Deanery seek to serve the communities, many of which face some deprivation and hardship, through various shared projects – a night shelter, foodbank, debt advice, drop-in cafes, lunch clubs and so on – please pray for all involved, and for those most in need of help and support. Please also pray for the new Area Dean of Gravesend Deanery, to be appointed by February.

    FORWARD MOVE June 2021 Parish magazine for the Church of St Mary, Kippington (Part of the benefice of the Team Ministry including St Mary the Virgin, Riverhead with Dunton Green; and St Luke's Sevenoaks) Our mission … To be a bridge between God and our community sharing the love of Jesus and growing in worship, welcome and witness From the Team Rector … Dear friends, Can ever any Sunday be called ordinary from now on? In the Church’s liturgical calendar, this time of the year, from Trinity Sunday (May 30th) all the way to the 24th of October (the last Sunday of Trinity) is often referred to as ‘ordinary time’. The Sundays that are each referred to from Trinity 1 all the way through to Trinity 21. The ordinary Sundays of the long ordinary Trinity season. In this long and ordinary Trinity season you get the impression that as we have celebrated the glorious seasons of the year thus far – Epiphany, Lent, Easter, Ascension and Pentecost – now we must wait until All Souls and All Saints, Advent and Christmas, when we can celebrate some more. In the meantime we now journey on a Sunday to worship and mark the ordinary Sundays of the Trinity Season – from 1 through to 21. Nothing spectacular happens in the liturgy, the colour green becomes a fixed for nearly five months and the Minister welcomes everyone to worship to yet another week of the long Trinity season. Green is such an ordinary colour. Our gardens and churchyards are filled to overflowing with green all over the place.

  • Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1St October - 31St December
    Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1st October - 31st December What is a Diocese and how do we work together within it? At its simplest, a Diocese is a geographical area; a region; a collection of parishes, benefices, deaneries, archdeaconries. But it is more than that – it is a gathering of all our communities in mutual support for each other. And as the Diocese of Winchester, we each play our part in the growth of God’s Kingdom committed to our vision of ‘living the mission of Jesus’. This prayer diary helps us to get to know each other better, to find out what is happening across the area and to see how God is working and using us all in his mission across the region. The early church shared good news of what was happening across a wide area, as churches grew, and more people came to know Christ. In their commitment to love and care for one another, prayer lay at the heart of their lives. As we use this Prayer Diary, let’s seek to share that love and care for each other and to rejoice in what God is doing amongst us. This month... how might you pray for young people? For example, you might focus on school leavers, students, youth workers, community centres, young people in trouble... How might you be part of the answer to your prayers? For example, you might make a point of smiling at young people in the street; volunteer for a helpline; get involved with your local Further Education College; support parents you know whose young adult children are struggling..

  • Calendar of Intercessions Christmas – Passiontide 2020
    Calendar of Intercessions Christmas – Passiontide 2020 to the Prayer Calendar for the Diocese of Rochester. The Anglican Communion cycle of prayer is no Welcome longer listed here, but can be found at http://www.anglicancommunion.org/resources/cycle-of-prayer.aspx and at @ACOffice. Similarly prayers from the World Council of Churches (WCC) can be found at @WCCprayers. Both cycles have a feed in the PrayerMate app (see below). In its current form, the calendar has two cycles: Parish and Community. The Community cycle includes any church schools attached to the parishes we pray for, day by day, but also includes other aspects of parish and diocesan life. When parishes have a link set up with another parish, we also include them in our prayers. Sunday entries cover some of the bigger pictures in our Diocese (sometimes geographical, sometimes issues or activities). These are usually simply one or two lines of text, but occasionally have fuller entries. The calendar also includes the calendar of saints and the liturgical colours – to keep the connection between our intercessions and the wider rhythms of our prayer. We also remember local saints commended to us by Bishop James, who might not necessarily be recognised by the Church of England nationally. Finally, there is space in the daily entries for you to note any prayer requests that have been made to you or your parish, or any special interests you want to remember in your prayers. This prayer calendar can also be found in the PrayerMate app (http://praynow4.org/rochester), on the diocesan website (http://rochester.anglican.org/ministry/prayer-amp- intercessions/intercessions/), on Twitter and on Facebook.

  • Diocese in Europe Prayer Diary, July to December 2011
    DIOCESE IN EUROPE PRAYER DIARY, JULY TO DECEMBER 2011 This calendar has been compiled to help us to pray together for one another and for our common concerns. Each chaplaincy, with the communities it serves, is remembered in prayer once a year, according to the following pattern: Eastern Archdeaconry - January, February Archdeaconry of France - March, April Archdeaconry of Gibraltar - May, June Diocesan Staff - July Italy & Malta Archdeaconry - July Archdeaconry of North West Europe - August, September Archdeaconry of Germany and Northern Europe Nordic and Baltic Deanery - September, October Germany - November Swiss Archdeaconry - November, December Each Archdeaconry, with its Archdeacon, is remembered on a Sunday. On the other Sundays, we pray for subjects which affect all of us (e.g. reconciliation, on Remembrance Sunday), or which have local applications for most of us (e.g. the local cathedral or cathedrals). Some chaplains might like to include prayers for the other chaplaincies in their deanery. We also include the Anglican Cycle of Prayer (daily, www.aco.org), the World Council of Churches prayer cycle (weekly, www.oikoumene.org, prayer resources on site), the Porvoo Cycle (weekly, www.porvoochurches.org), and festivals and commemorations from the Common Worship Lectionary (www.churchofengland.org/prayer-worship/worship/texts.aspx). Sundays and Festivals, printed in bold type, have special readings in the Common Worship Lectionary. Lesser Festivals, printed in normal type, have collects in the Common Worship Lectionary. Commemorations, printed in italics, may have collects in Exciting Holiness, and additional, non- biblical, readings for all of these may be found in Celebrating the Saints (both SCM-Canterbury Press).
