  • Pause and Pray – Daily Resources
    Pause and Pray – Daily Resources Thursday 12th November 2020 Pause As I enter prayer now, I pause to be still: to breathe slowly to re-centre my scattered senses upon the presence of God. Lord, we come as your people; we come as your friends. We come together. We come as we are. We come to be made one. We come to worship, that we might go in your name. Amen Rejoice I rejoice in God’s salvation, joining with the ancient praise of all God’s people in the words of Psalm 27 verse 1 ‘The Lord is my light and my salvation – whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life – of whom shall I be afraid?’ Reflect I reflect today on the words of scripture found in Malachi 3 verse 10: “Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.” I ask myself when have I seen God’s blessing outpoured in my life or in the life of others? What would it look like for our churches to be overflowing with God’s blessings? Ask Today we pray for: Bishop Julian, Bishop Philip & Bishop Jill Archdeacon David & Archdeacon Mark Friday 13th November 2020 Pause As I enter prayer now, I pause to be still: to breathe slowly to re-centre my scattered senses upon the presence of God.

  • Lancashire Catholicism
    LANCASHIRE CATHOLICISM. HE following table contains the Lancashire portion of an " Account of Papists within "the Diocese of Chester," drawn up in the year 1767, by order of the Bishop. The parishes in the deaneries of Kendal and Lonsdale have all been included, though a few are in Westmorland and Yorkshire. The Cheshire portion has been printed in the Cheshire Sheaf, (3rd series, vol. v), but a summary of the figures of this portion as well as for the whole archdeaconry of Richmond is added. The returns are contained in a small quarto volume, preserved in the Diocesan Registry at Chester, and for permission to copy and print it the Society is indebted to John Gamon, Esq., the Diocesan Registrar. The 1717 figures seem to have been taken from the statistics compiled by Bishop Gastrell, and printed in the Notitia Cestrensis (Chetham Society). At first sight there appears a very surprising and unexpected increase in the later returns ; it is, how- ever, probable that at the earlier time the number of concealed Catholics was larger than at the later. This may have been owing to the suppression of the Jacobite rising of 1715, which entailed disastrous consequences on the adherents of the ancient faith, generally sympathisers with the Stuart cause, and in a large number of cases open supporters of the rebellion. By 1767 the period of persecution was drawing to an end, and there was less occasion than formerly to conceal religious convictions. The figures invite further questions as to the cause 01 the predominance of Protestantism at the present time, not only in the great towns, where the popu- lation is to a large extent " foreign," but in those Lancashire Catholicism.
