  • Calendar of Intercessions Michaelmas – Advent 2017
    Calendar of Intercessions Michaelmas – Advent 2017 to this edition of the prayer diary, following the Feast St Michael and All Angels until the first Sunday of Advent. There are now two Rochester cycles of prayer – ‘parishes’ and ‘extra- Welcome parochial’. This is an attempt to be a little more even handed with the additional groups who are prayed for as the year turns, and to include our church schools in our prayers. As usual, it’s a sizable document but designed 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.

  • Religion, Science, and Colonialism in the Anglican Communion John
    Religion, Science, and Colonialism in the Anglican Communion John Albert Hall lecture University of Victoria, B.C., Center for Studies in Religion and Society, 5 pm 26 January 2017 Abstract: The Anglican Communion is the historic product of colonial expansion, driven by both religious fervor and economic desire. Justification for the colonial endeavor was often based in both religious and contemporary scientific understandings. This address will attempt to explore how different ways of knowing – particularly the varieties of religion and science – have influenced the development of the Anglican Communion and how they continue to shape our missional partnerships and engagement. We’ll examine parallels in method (including error and misuse) in each way of knowing, noting both historical examples and contemporary opportunities for creative interchange. Let’s start with the centerpiece of this topic – colonialism. The word derives from the Latin (colere) “to cultivate or inhabit or tend.” A colony was an outpost of the Roman Empire or a landed estate. The word’s more ancient PIE root (kwel), meant1 to move around or dwell, and produced words like wheel and cycle as well as culture and cult.2 Colonialism in modern usage is the desire to plant one’s own culture (and often, one’s own cult or religion) in a different land. In other species colonization is a reproductive mechanism – planting cells in new hosts or geographic locations. We might use a generic definition of colonizing as ‘sending out one’s life forms to grow and establish themselves in a new environment.’ That’s the antithesis of Star Trek’s Prime Directive, but it seems to be pretty central to the course of human history and much of evolutionary biology.

  • The General Synod of the Church of England
    382 ECCLESIASTICAL LAW JOURNAL THE GENERAL SYNOD OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND BRIAN HANSON Joint Registrar of the Province of Canterbury THIS REPORT COVERS TWO GROUPS OF SESSIONS IN JULY AND NOVEMBER 1999. The Synod met in residential session at York University in July and had a heavy programme of liturgical business in preparation for the authorisation of the new Service Book entitled Common Worship to replace the Alternative Service Book at the end of December 2000. By contrast the legislative items were fairly light. The Legislative Committee brought a report to Synod on the Churchwardens Measure and recommended its re-introduction in order that clause 9 could be withdrawn (which had caused difficulties for the Ecclesiastical Committee of Parliament) and a new clause on suspension substituted. The Synod agreed a new clause giving four grounds for suspension, namely (1) where the person has requested or consented to the suspension; (2) where the person is unable to carry out his duties by reason of absence, illness or incapacity; (3) where the person has been charged with an offence which is punishable with imprisonment or. if not so punishable, would on conviction disqualify that person from being chosen as churchwarden: and (4) where the person has been convicted of any offence which is punishable by imprisonment. The Synod also agreed a new clause requiring the House of Bishops to draw up principles of guidance for bishops exercising the power of suspension and a clause giving a right of appeal for a person who has received a notice of suspension to the Dean of the Arches and Auditor.
