  • REVEL BENEFICE Passionate About Sharing God’S Love with the Whole Community
    REVEL BENEFICE Passionate about sharing God’s love with the whole community Page 1 of 32 BISHOP’S INTRODUCTION There has been a willingness and commitment of the parishes within the Revel Benefice to re- think how mission and ministry might look in their rural context. A few years ago, I challenged them to do some work on what the future shape of their ministry might look like. To their great credit they have taken up the challenge and responded very well. The Parish Profile reflects how far their thinking has come, along with changes in structure they have already made. They have engaged healthily with the 8 Essential Qualities, which they have undertaken as a whole benefice. This has enabled their journey of growing as a mission shaped church to continue. A growth in shared ministry, lay leadership and working together has continued to bear fruit through Messy church, and a growing relationship with schools, has enabled the mission and ministry to continue even with the challenges posed by illness and early retirement of the previous incumbent. The Revel journey draws on a spiritual heritage I found very inspiring when arriving in Coventry Diocese. It can be read in a little but influential book by Stephen Verney called, ‘Fire in Coventry’, and describes how the Spirit moved in the hearts of people in Monks Kirby and the spiritual awakening across the Diocese that happened as a result. My hope and prayer is that this benefice may once again be a place of influential spiritual momentum. This heritage in the spiritual dynamic of laity, has given energy to new forms of mission and ministry in a rural context.

  • Prayer Diary Every Supporting Ligament, Grows and Builds Itself up in Love, As Each Part Does Its Work
    Spiritual Formation Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by Prayer Diary every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. Ephesians 4:15-16 June 2017 Have you been to the gym recently? Or out for a very good meal? As a society, we spend a lot of time thinking about outward appearances and how to maintain a healthy diet. But do we spend anywhere near as much time thinking about how we nurture our souls? Church as a ‘contact sport’ Over the last few weeks I’ve found myself reflecting at There is a rich vein of two thousand years of Christian teaching and wisdom which can help Archdeacons’ Visitations on five years of ministry as each of us to mature on our own spiritual journey. We are body, mind and spirit, and when Archdeacon Pastor. I’ve been comparing it to a rugby we pay too much attention to one of these, or neglect one, we become somehow dis- match I went to recently because, in my experience, integrated, out of kilter. Finding regular time and space for God, inspired by Christian church can be very much a ‘contact sport’. We are all traditions, literature and art can help us to grow spiritually and restore us to wholesomeness different so disagreements are inevitable; and when they – to be transformed into our unique and authentic selves as God intended us to be.

  • The Roman Sites of South-West Leicestershire
    PLATE I HIGH CROSS—FROM NORTH HIGH CROSS—FROM SOUTH THE ROMAN SITES OF SOUTH-WEST LEICESTERSHIRE BY ARTHUR J. PICKERING, F.G.S. PART I VENON/E TRIPONTIUM Preface THE following notes on the Roman Sites of South-West Leicester­ shire are of a somewhat fragmentary character. They will be found, however, to make some contribution to present day know­ ledge of the Midlands during the Roman occupation and will, the writer hopes, pave the way for excavation of a more ambitious character. The writer is convinced that systematic search and enquiry would reveal a number of other sites in this corner of the county at present unrecorded. Hinckley, Higham-on-the-Hill, Market Bosworth and Peckleton, where some evidence of Roman occupation has come to light, would possibly be found to be homesteads of the Roman-British farmer similar to Barwell and Sapcote. There is here every indication that in early forest clearings the land was tilled and stock raised for the important market town of Ratse Coritanorum. Owing to the lack of vigilance and to the superficial resem­ blance of Roman building material to what may be found on the site of any old cottage, there can be no doubt that much valuable evidence is often overlooked and for ever lost to us. Whatever historical interest these notes may afford to the antiquarian, their value has been considerably enhanced to the student by the descriptive and comparative notes on the coarse pottery contributed by Mr. B. H. St. J. O'Neil, of the Office of Works. His invaluable help in the examination of this material, and also in the revision of the complete type-script of this paper for the press, places the writer under a great debt of gratitude.

  • Revised Plan April 2016 Traditional Orchards
    www.warwickshirewildlifetrust.org.uk ACTION for WILDLIFE Warwickshire, Coventry and Solihull Local Biodiversity Action Plan REVISED PLAN APRIL 2016 TRADITIONAL ORCHARDS 1. INTRODUCTION Traditional orchards are groups of fruit trees such as apples, pears and plums planted on vigorous rootstocks at low densities in permanent grassland managed in a low intensity way; nut-bearing shrubs such as walnuts, almonds and hazelnuts can also be present in some sites. These man- made habitats are long-established and widely distributed Blackwell Orchard and are a distinctive feature of the British countryside. Prime © Sarah Shuttleworth traditional orchard habitat consists of grazed grassland with fruit trees of varying age structure, with an abundance of standing and fallen dead and decaying wood. Warwickshire is not as rich in traditional orchards as its neighbouring counties of Gloucestershire and Worcestershire but it retains a valuable resource of this habitat, especially within Stratford-on-Avon District. Traditional orchards are structurally and ecologically similar to wood-pasture and parkland, with open-grown trees set in herbaceous vegetation, but are generally distinguished from these priority habitat complexes by the following characteristics: the species composition of the trees, these being primarily in the family Rosaceae; the usually denser arrangement of the trees; the small scale of individual habitat patches; the wider dispersion; greater frequency of occurrence of habitat patches in the countryside. Some traditional orchards may have originally been commercial orchards but are now no longer managed intensively. Others are small orchards planted originally to produce fruit for local consumption or for the production of cider and perry (pear wine). They are usually dominated by older, less intensively managed ‘standard’ trees (branches springing above the reach of grazing animals) planted at relatively lower densities, which allows livestock grazing beneath the orchard canopy.

  • 4 Crick and the Domesday Book
    HISTORICAL NOTES THE MANORS OF CRICK - 4 Crick and the Domesday Book - 3 As we have seen, the first Norman lord of the manor of Crick was Geoffrey de la Guérche, who held it as part of his baronial estates as a tenant-in-chief of William the Conqueror. He originated from a family of some considerable rank, for his father Silvestre was lord of la Guerche and Pouence, both being towns near Rennes on the border of Brittany and Anjou. Silvestre was Chancellor of Brittany, but after the death of his wife, he entered the Church, and in 1075 was consecrated Bishop of Rennes. Geoffrey was known in Brittany as de Pouence, but after coming to England he changed his title to de la Guerche. It is by no means certain, but quite probable that in fact he held a command in William's invading army of 1066, for a count of Brittany named Alan Fergant provided and led a third of the entire force. Since these men were Bretons, Geoffrey could well have been amongst them. His social rank alone would have hardly qualified him otherwise for the extent of his estates afterwards awarded to him by William. It is easy, and indeed customary, to regard a village at the time of the Domesday Survey - and, for that matter, in the succeeding centuries as an isolated entity having an independent place in history. The reality was very much otherwise. Every village was part of a group, large or small, which made up the estate of a tenant-in-chief, and thus Crick was but one manor amongst the considerable number held by Geoffrey de la Guerche.

  • Welcome to St Joseph's Roman Catholic Church Monks Kirby
    Welcome to St Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church Monks Kirby Mass Times: Sunday morning 9:15, with children’s liturgy Monday 18:30, Tuesday 10:00, Wednesday 18:30, Friday 19:00 Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament Friday 18:30 Introduction Fr Matthew Pittam So we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Romans 12:5 Welcome to St Joseph’s Church. Often St Joseph’s is described as a family where people can find a sense of belonging, fellowship and growth in faith. We are a community which cares for each other but also one which seeks to be missional through our wide variety of activities. In many ways St Joseph’s ‘punches above its weight’ and has a church life which might not always be found in a much larger parish. This gives St Joseph’s a real sense of purpose and a focus upon the work of evangelisation. The parish serves an area known locally as the Revel. Within this area, St Joseph’s enjoys a strong profile and is well respected as part of the community. We enjoy good links with the local school and all of the other local Churches. Increased involvement in the school over the last few years has helped develop links with local families and those who are new to the area. We are very proud of the Catholic provision which continues to take place within the school. For many years we have provided chaplaincy to the two very large care and nursing homes within the parish.
