    THE ARCHDEACONS’ FORUM for the Church of England and the Church in Wales Archdeacons’ News Bulletin no. 36 July 2018 from Norman Boakes Archdeacons’ National Executive Officer Many of us may well be looking forward to summer holidays and possibly a slight easing of the pressures over the summer period. While the summer period is by no means as quiet as it used to be, there is still often a chance to catch up and to read material which has been put to one side. This edition of the Archdeacons’ News contains a good deal of detailed material which you may already have received by other means. It is included here to ensure that you have received it, and provide an easy reference for you to follow up if you wish to do so. For those in the Church in Wales or the Diocese in Europe, some of it may be of passing interest, but it may prompt you either to rejoice that your structures are simpler, or to inspire similar activity where needed. I hope you all have a good summer, and find some time for re-creation and refreshment. With my best wishes and prayers, as always, Norman [email protected] 023 8076 7735 * * * * * A reminder – in this newsletter, if something has a purple heading and a black text, it is new material; if it has a black heading and grey text, it has been here before. 1 Archdeacons’ Training Events Church Commissioners’ 2018 Mission and Pastoral Conferences With the Mission and Pastoral etc (Amendment) Measure due to come into effect later this year, the Commissioners are holding a series of conferences on the changes being brought in and other associated matters which should be very useful for those involved in pastoral reorganisation work, including Archdeacons, DMPC Secretaries, some Diocesan Secretaries, Diocesan Missioners and others.
