CMD Programme 2020 CMD Programme 2020 Bishop’s Days Monday 23rd March Monday 28th September Portsmouth Cathedral One-Day Courses Exploring Catholic Liturgy Using Common Worship Doing Conflict Well! Medical Ethics Inspiring Music in Worship Preaching Old Testament Estates Ministry Agreed Lead into Evangelism The Devil’s Storyteller Effective Administration CMD Reader Training Welcome to our 2020 Programme of Diocesan CMD Days Over the past four years Mission Discipleship and Ministry has been seeking to support church growth in our diocese. In order to do this we have addressed the issues that the philosopher Charles Taylor sees as being at the heart of secularisation: declining numbers in church; lack of influence in society; a sceptical secularised mindset that prioritises consumerism. Our response has three important strands: Growth in depth: enabling our churches to deepen the living faith of those who are part of our church communities so that their experience of God is rich and meaningful. We might describe this as pre-evangelism: helping Christians to reflect on their faith so that they are able to share a living faith with others. Growth in breath: enabling churches to share their faith with others and make an impact upon their communities. This is about shaping the discussion about what the Common Good of society might be according to a Christian narrative in which the life and death of Jesus is central. We might describe this as evangelism: Christians sharing their faith with others. Growth in number: enabling churches to welcome new people into the family of faith by making space for their needs. This is about people encountering something of the hospitality of God in the life of church communities. We might describe this as post- evangelism: Christians welcoming into the church family those who have heard the good news. This booklet of Continuing Ministerial Development training is designed to support these aims. In our first Bishop’s Days we will be looking at how we can renew our worship in a way that allows new people to be welcomed into the community of faith. Other courses support conflict transformation, preaching, liturgy, music, people management, theology and working in deprived communities. I encourage all licensed ministers to renew and refresh their ministry by taking part in the CMD programme.

Bishop’s Days Monday 23rd March 2020 & Monday 28th September 2020 at Portsmouth Cathedral for Clergy, Readers, Pioneers, and Lay Worship Leaders “I welcome all in active ministry as Readers and Clergy to these days of meeting for learning and fellowship. We take time together to pause for listening, sharing and reflecting on how we fashion our lives, and the lives of our congregations, to proclaim the Gospel, grow the Church, and build the Kingdom” Renewing Worship led by WILD Group including Bethan Fogell and Ally Ross (Choir Church Pioneer Minister) 10am to 3pm on Monday 23rd March This day will focus on refreshing and re-energising our existing worship and introducing new forms of worship. A range of workshops and presentations will explore topics including developing contextual worship, worshipping with dementia and regenerating worship for the whole family. A new and exciting resource to support our singing and music in collective and church worship will be launched and available to take away on the day. SAVE THE DATE 10am to 3pm on Monday 28th September Theme to be announced later in January. One-Day Courses Exploring Catholic Approaches to Liturgy led by Anthony Rustell and Fr Russell Lawson for Ordinands, Curates and Other Clergy Wednesday, 29th January 2020 at Holy Spirit, Southsea A practical liturgy day for ordinands, curates and other clergy to increase understanding of catholic liturgical traditions, rubrics and ceremonial. This is not a course for those who are already experts in this field, but for those who would like to learn how to employ a simple, dignified and well-ordered ceremonial in liturgical worship. We hope to answer any questions you have about ceremonial, and to offer practical guidance about ordering and celebrating the liturgy with confidence. We encourage clergy from all theological traditions to take part. Spaces are limited to 15 participants. We ask you to bring either cassock alb and cincture or cassock, alb, amice and cincture with you. Head of Mission, Discipleship, and Ministry at Portsmouth Diocese since 2013, Anthony advises the Bishop’s Council on strategic development and provides consultancy and training for parishes on lay discipleship development. He was formerly priest in the parish of Tongwynlais. The Reverend Russell Lawson, born and brought up in Northumberland, he studied Geography at Leeds University and Theology at Oxford University. He trained for the priesthood at St Stephen’s House, Oxford, and was ordained in 1998 to a title in the Diocese of St Albans. He has worked in town, suburban, and in multi-ethnic UPA parishes. Some moderately catholic, others very distinctly so. Most recently at St Albans, South Norwood in the Diocese of Southwark before coming to Portsmouth in 2018 to serve as Vicar of Holy Spirit, Southsea. Less is more: Using Common Worship well by Angela Tilby and Jo Spreadbury for Clergy, Lay Worship Leaders, PTO’s Readers Thursday, 27th February 2020 at Rowlands Castle It is 20 years since the Common Worship ‘black book’ of services and prayers for the Church of England was published - start of a library of authorised volumes of resources for worship. Across the day we shall reflect on how the book has been used and experienced in parishes and also consider whether the time has come to cut back on some of the variety and offer a simpler and more coherent approach to texts used in liturgical worship. What principles might emerge from this and what might the results look like? The day will be led by Canon Angela Tilby, writer and broadcaster and Canon of Honour in this Diocese, and Canon Jo Spreadbury, Canon Precentor of Portsmouth Cathedral and Chair of Praxis and member of the Liturgical Commission. One-Day Courses Doing Conflict Well: A day on conflict transformation using material from Bridge Builders led by Anthony Rustell for Clergy, and Readers Saturday, 28th March 2020 at Peninsular House, Portsmouth A conflict transformation day for clergy and Readers. Every church situation has some level of conflict, and sometimes conflict can be a really healthy sign that people are engaged in church life and really care about the future. But how do we decide if the conflict is healthy or not? Should we tackle the conflict head on? How should we approach conflict? This is a day for those who wish to understand the human dynamics of churches rather better, and to be more able to transform conflict into healthy discussion. Spaces are limited to 15 participants. Head of Mission, Discipleship, and Ministry at Portsmouth Diocese since 2013, Anthony advises the Bishop’s Council on strategic development and provides consultancy and training for parishes on lay discipleship development. He was formerly priest in the parish of Tongwynlais. Medical Ethics led by David Carpenter and Ike Ugboma for Clergy and Readers Wednesday, 22nd April 2020 at Rowlands Castle Advances in medical science have moved on apace and, not surprisingly they are welcomed by all who have a prospect of benefit. Ethical considerations tend to follow in the trail of scientific innovation; we innovate first then think about ethical consequences after.There is a price to pay for these developing treatments, not only in financial terms but also there is the human cost of experimental treatment in the course of drug development. These challenges have much in common - they lead to questioning whether what can be provided ought to be.Members of the clergy and their lay supporters typically find themselves embroiled in very difficult situations. This day will provide ample opportunities to discuss the role of ministry in a climate of medical innovation. David Carpenter is a recently retired moral and political philosopher who continues to support local and national organisations in the practical applications of ethics. He is a member of the ethics committees in the local Hospital Trust and the Rowans Hospice. He also chairs an NHS research ethics committee which reviews wide-ranging research including clinical trials of drugs. David will trace the history of the NHS, identifying ethic issues en route. His talk will be followed by an opportunity for discussion - are there worse things than death? Dr Ike Ugboma is a Consultant Geriatrician working at Queen Alexandra Hospital. He will reflect on many of the more challenging cases he has experienced raising key points of ethics. His talk will be followed by an opportunity for in-depth discussion. One-Day Courses Inspiring Music in Worship led by Helen Bent for Rural Readers and Clergy, Organists, Musicians Tuesday, 12th May 2020 at Rowlands Castle This engaging and interactive day will encourage churches to make the best use of music to enhance their worship, especially rural churches with few resources. There will be accessible musical examples although no musical expertise is needed. Pioneer and author of Spring Music in Worship, Helen has carefully listened to those in local churches, responding to their frequently asked questions and heartfelt challenges and requests with wisdom and a wealth of experience of across the full spectrum of tradition and style. Helen Bent is a priest, musician and respected author with a wealth of experience in both parish ministry and the training of worship leaders and musicians across the country.

  • Has the Parish a Future?
    John Hughes Memorial Lecture Rev Dr Alison Milbank – Wednesday 24th October 2018 Has the Parish a future? It is a great honour for me to give a lecture in memory of John Hughes, who apart from his undoubted academic brilliance, was a true parish priest, and one of the main reasons I hope for the future of the parish is the commitment to it of many of the brightest and most committed young people coming out of theological colleges today. And it is a delight to be giving this address at St Michael and All Angels, where he preached the sermon included in our sermon collection, Preaching Radical and Orthodox, in a church with such a heart for Christian education and formation. In this talk I shall begin with some background about the history of the parish, and then turn to the challenges of our contemporary situation, before offering some ideas about what might give the parish a future in Britain. So first to its origins. The word means in Greek, ‘beside the house’, and referred originally to those beyond the centre of the city or town, from the time when the Christian community met centrally under the presidency of the bishop. As faith spread to the paroikia new assemblies were made within the diocese. The Celtic missionaries in Britain would set up a preaching cross or reuse a standing stone to gather people for teaching or worship, and as time went on, buildings replaced these stones, often also built on pagan sacred sites, following, as Bede tells us in his Ecclesiastical History, the advice of Pope Gregory to Augustine, when he came to evangelise southern England.

  • The Glass Cathedral
    From the Archive THE GLASS CATHEDRAL Language, Imagery and Leadership1 Angela Tilby ‘The Glass Cathedral’ is the third of the articles from The Way’s archive that we are republishing to mark the journal’s golden jubilee year. A representative has been selected from each of the first four decades of publication. By the 1980s, the range of those writing for The Way had broadened considerably. Angela Tilby is best known as an Anglican theologian and broadcaster. In this article from 1989, eight years before she herself was ordained priest, she offers a critique of Christian leadership rooted in the ways in which language can be used to cloak, as well as to expose, issues of authority. HE CHRISTIAN CHURCHES are human organizations with human T leaders. They have the same investment as other organizations in establishing appropriate leadership. In doing so they have to deal with issues of language and imagery. Language and imagery determine the way we think and feel. They also give content to our thoughts and feelings. I believe that there are deep misunderstandings about the relation of language and imagery in today’s Church and that these inhibit both our communication with the world and our self-understanding. So what are these misunderstandings? Here is an obvious one. At times of discovery and danger, such as our own, there is pressure on Church leaders to negotiate a common language. Division scandalizes the body. We are also afraid of the cold world outside. We set up commissions to discover what we agree about. ARCIC is an example.
