There was so much material for the last edition that we decided to do an extra one. For me this is a sign of the dynamism and energy in our diocese and a reflection of all the wonderful things that are going on. It is one of the blessings of being the bishop that I get to see so many of the things that are happening and am able to participate in some of them. At a time when we can be inclined to think that faith is not important to people, we have so many witnessing to and working to support others within and beyond our community. This edition comes out as the Easter season is drawing to wonderful past which our forebears worked so hard for and an end with the celebration of the Ascension of our Lord we are now being asked to look to the future.

However, in all of this, the desire is for our faith communities to be stronger, to be able to support one another better, Yours in Christ, to be able to spread the Gospel more effectively and to be welcoming to those who have not heard of Christ. In all of this, I would ask that you take these proposals to prayer, that you look at the big picture and the needs of our diocese both now and in the future. We have had a + Paul Martin SM From our Diocesan General Manager - Andy Doherty As Diocesan General Manager, my job description is to “Support the bishop in his pastoral mission for the Catholic Diocese of Christchurch, through the management and leadership of diocesan resources, staff and the delivery of outcomes.” Put simply, “I support the bishop!” Now more than ever, we all need to offer our support to our bishop as he and the whole diocese deliberate over some major decisions and potential structural changes. Such deliberations are never easy but I am confident in the wisdom of our bishop, his College of Consultors, the Management and Finance Board and the many others who are assisting him in discerning the future of the diocese. I am looking forward to my role in assisting our bishop to implement his vision. I wish you all well as together, we engage with the future of the Christchurch Diocese. 2 SOLEMN MASS OF THE BLESSING OF THE OILS AND CONSECRATION OF THE CHRISM Chrism Mass 2019 On the Monday of Holy Week, the priests of the Christchurch Diocese gather with the bishop and, in the sight of a large congregation, renew Office Bishop’s their promises to be faithful.

  • BISHOP BARRY JONES Barry Philip Jones Has Been the Catholic Bishop of Christchurch for Over Nine Years. He Will Be Rememb
    BISHOP BARRY JONES Barry Philip Jones has been the Catholic Bishop of Christchurch for over nine years. He will be remembered by us as a man of integrity, who filled the episcopal office with honour, who in demanding times gave sound leadership to the Catholic community, who was a respected representative of the Catholic Church in Canterbury and Westland and who has left a worthy heritage of faith, of priestly zeal and of Christian life. Back in the 3rd century AD, Hippolytus who was a theologian and a bishop wrote about what it means to be a bishop: He said “We are the successors of the apostles to whom it has been given to participate in their self same grace of priesthood and teaching and to be the guardians of the Church.” With Christ, the Lord, the apostles had been the founders of the Church. Aidan Nichols, an English Dominican theologian much appreciated by Bishop Jones once wrote: “The successors of the apostles, the Pope and the bishops do not ‘replace’ the apostles; they ‘ stand in’ for them. They ensure the presence of the apostles in the same ministry received from Christ.” A bishop has a threefold office which is essential for the Catholic Church. He is ordained for the office of sanctifying the faithful through the Mass and the sacraments, he is ordained for the office of teaching, handing on the faith revealed by Christ, he is ordained for the office of governing that part of the Church entrusted to him and with all the bishops under the Pope, he shares responsibility for the whole Church.

  • Births, Marriages & Deaths from the Carbon Advocate 1882-1883
    Births, Marriages & Deaths From The Carbon Advocate, 1882-1883 This is the fifth in a series of vital records extracted from the Lehighton Newpaper, The Carbon Advocate. Like the previous parts, in extracting the births, marriages & deaths, I have not included the following types of items: 1. Items that did not pertain to Carbon or the surrounding counties. I excluded anything west and south of Berks County, and south of Lehigh & Northampton Counties. I generally included anything north of Carbon county. 2. Estate notices. 3. Murder trials. 4. Coroner inquests when they are not part of the original death notice. In extracting these records, I have copied items as completely and exactly as possible. I have not attempted to correct any spelling errors. If I felt a need to add any text, I did so in brackets. Although most of the papers on microfilm were easy to read, there were some times where the image quality made things difficult. Because of this, researchers are advised to consult the original records. Volume 10, Number 7, Saturday, January 7, 1882 Local and Personal. James Coon, a well-known mine contractor of Pleasant Valley, Luzerne county, acidentally shot and killed himself on Monday while hunting. Local and Personal. Frank Dormer died at Pottsville on Saturday from the effects of injuries received in an explosion at Otto Colliery about two weeks ago. Local and Personal. The youngest daughter of Mrs. C. DeTschirschky, of this place, died, after a short illness of diphtheritic croup, about 4 o'clock on Sunday afternoon last. Local and Personal.
