Leader – Grower - Enabler – Encourager – Facilitator Relational - Pastoral - Prayerful We are looking for a priest who will join us in seeking to build the Kingdom in our rural village communities. Over recent years we’ve been journeying towards discovering the most effective way of developing our mission and ministry in order to reach out with Christ’s love to and with the people who live in our beautiful villages. We know this will involve some pastoral reorganisation2 as we work more closely together. We need a priest who can guide us in our journeying – is this you? As our new Priest in Charge we expect these to be some of the qualities you will bring to ministry and leadership with us: A Team Leader who will help develop our ministry teams for mission both locally and across our wider community A Church ‘grower’ who will help us to grow spiritually and numerically both as disciples and church An Enabler, Encourager and Facilitator who will help us to move forward on our journey as we discover better ways of being effective in mission, ministry and witness A Spiritual Leader who will build great relationships in all walks of life as a pastor whose life is rooted in prayer whilst encouraging us to do the same So, what about us? We’re ready for the challenges ahead and for a gifted leader to help lead us as we take the next steps on our journey. These are some of the challenges we recognise: making full use of the gifts and talents of clergy and laity, working collegially and collaboratively building a sense of being ‘one church’ across the wider community while recognising the individual church communities and their local priorities establishing better administrative arrangements to resource mission and ministry across our parishes developing the worshipping life of the churches as a focus for the villages we serve through liturgy, music and life events and seasonal services maintaining healthy finances to support the mission and ministry of our churches 2 Wingham parish is currently part of the neighbouring Canonry benefice. 3 Our Vision Vision We want to be a church in which we share our love of God within our villages and in the wider community. We want to Express our faith through Christian witness in prayer, ministry and worship, led collaboratively by our priest and well supported by the laity. Develop our faith both as individuals and as a church family. Be the spiritual home for the advancement of God’s work in our village communities. Reach out into our community and schools to share God’s word with all, whatever their needs or circumstances. Coming Together See also the Introductory Note on page 2. We have made a good start through our joint Benefice Committee3 (‘Bencom’) which fulfils an executive role across our parishes consisting of churchwardens and other lay leaders from across our five parishes. Together we are actively working with the diocese towards making a reduction in the number of PCCs by uniting some parishes. We were committed to reviewing the pattern and frequency of services and have now implemented a shared pattern across our parishes. In addition to the Bencom; here are some of the other ways we’ve established closer relationships: Implemented a shared pattern of worship across all 5 parish churches. Wickhambreaux and Ickham have a shared choir and links to the Church school. Wickhambreaux and Stodmarsh PCCs have been meeting jointly for over a year and recently held a combined APCM for both parishes. This came about out of a desire to help each other work more effectively, rather than being directed to do so. Wingham are part of the Bencom. Our PCCs have discussed and agreed informally a scheme whereby Wingham will come into the Benefice formally and Wickhambreaux, Ickham and Stodmarsh will become one parish. In the Littlebourne Benefice our priorities have been Prayer and worship; Schools, Children and young people; Community and One Church Family. In Wingham the priorities have been around building a stronger worshipping community incorporating lay engagement and a new focus on music whilst looking at ways of raising funds for church fabric and mission. We accept that the responsibility for change is ours. Together we recognise the need for the Priest in Charge to help us re-evaluate these priorities as we come together in the coming months and years. 3 For more information about the Bencom see page 8. 4 Our Context Map showing Parish Boundaries We are five village communities situated to the east of Canterbury which dominates the area. Canterbury has a large student population and many residents are employed in the education and health sectors. It is the main shopping centre and is well served by other amenities including hospitals, universities, colleges and schools. The Cathedral is important both as the centre of the Anglican Church and as a major tourist destination. There are two theatres: the Gulbenkian at the University of Kent and the Marlowe in the city centre. There is a strong musical tradition in the area, evident in various societies and activities. Canterbury is a hub for public transport with two mainline rail stations and the main bus station serving East Kent. There are good links to Europe via the Channel Tunnel at Folkestone and the Port of Dover. 5 Canterbury City Council is the local authority covering the Littlebourne benefice; Wingham is within the Dover District Council area. There are civil parish councils in Littlebourne, Ickham, Wickhambreaux (also covering Stodmarsh) and Wingham. There is a URC chapel in Littlebourne which runs some activities for very young children, but does not hold Sunday services. As members of the East Bridge deanery we have been working together to develop a greater focus for mission and to develop lay ministry across the deanery. The Villages and Parishes The parishes are based around the five picturesque rural villages of Littlebourne, Ickham, Wickhambreaux, Stodmarsh and Wingham and set in a conservation area. The local economy is largely agricultural, with a typical Kentish emphasis on fruit growing. Housing is being built and developed in Littlebourne for 100 new homes (The Canterbury Local Plan designates Littlebourne as a Service Centres). There are three primary schools across the parishes which include two Church of England Primaries. There are active Scouting and Guiding sections based in Littlebourne and Wingham which cater for children aged 5 and over.

There is insufficient affordable housing for young people. However, there is also considerable concern about the pressure of further housing 4 source: ArcGIS Church of England Parish Maps link: http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=67bce0ed36dd4ee0af7a16bc079aa09 a&extent=-0.4317,51.313,0.1986,51.5945 5 source: Parish Returns for 2018 except as stated. 6 development on the villages. The current developments in Littlebourne met fierce opposition, mainly on grounds of amenities and traffic pressure. Many residents commute from the villages – some to London. This places pressure of local road communications during peak hours as there is no bypass right around Canterbury. There are not large numbers of young people in the benefice and surveys indicate they feel there is not much to do. However, the proximity of Canterbury (and its schools) is also a draw. A monthly newsletter ‘Church and Village’ is delivered free to over 1,100 homes in the Littlebourne benefice. It is funded by advertisements and from benefice funds.

  • Document in Detail: Diocese of Canterbury Medieval Fragments
    Issue 10, Summer 2018 Kent Archives is set for a busy summer. In this edition of our newsletter we introduce you to our joint project with Findmypast to digitise our parish register collection. The image in our header is from the first Cranbrook parish composite register [ref. P100/1/A/1], and is just one of the thousands of registers that will be digitised. We are also in the middle of transferring the remaining historic records of the Diocese of Canterbury from Canterbury Cathedral Archives to the Kent History and Library Centre to join its probate records, which have been held by Kent Archives since 1946. At the same time, archive cataloguing of one of Maidstone’s major papermaking collections is nearly complete; further World War I commemorative activities are underway; and work continues on the Catalogue Transfer Project and Manorial Documents Register Project for Kent. Document in Detail: Diocese of Canterbury Medieval Fragments [DCb/PRC/50/5] Mark Ballard, Archive Service Officer Among many other records of great value within the records of Canterbury Diocese are the ‘medieval fragments’ [DCb/PRC/49 and DCb/PRC/50], which in the post-Reformation period came to be used as covers, or ‘end-parchments’, for the probate registers. If we can judge by the dates of the act books and wills and inventories registers they covered, this recycling became a habit during the episcopate of Archbishop Matthew Parker (1559-1575). It is perhaps ironic that at precisely the time that Thomas Tallis and William Byrd, probably both closet Roman Catholics, were still being employed to write motets for the Chapel Royal, such disrespectful treatment was being accorded at Canterbury to their medieval predecessors.

  • A History of Ash and Its Churches
    A History of Ash and its Churches The present parish of Ash, more than 7,000 acres in extent and one of the largest in Kent, was once only a part of the great manor of Wingham. Originally a royal manor, Wingham was given by King Athelstan of Kent to the See of Canterbury about 850 : it covered the present parishes of Ash, Goodnestone, Nonington, Wingham and parts of Staple and Womenswold. In a list of churches probably made in 1071, in which 'Aesce' is said to belong to Wingham, mention is also made of an apparently more important church 'de Raette', as well as one at 'Fleota' belonging to the manor of Folkestone. If, as seems likely, 'de Raette' refers to Richborough, this is the only record of that church; but the chapel of Fleet, actually within the 3rd century Roman walls of Richborough Castle, continued in use until the 16th century. Leland in the time of Henry VIII wrote that 'withyn the castel is a lytle paroche Chirch of S. Augustine'. It was believed that when St. Augustine first stepped ashore in England in 597 the impression of his foot was miraculously left upon a stone. This relic was afterwards kept in this chapel dedicated to him, and pilgrims flocked there upon the anniversary of the landing to pray and to recover their health. Excavations have uncovered the ground plan of the chapel, and confirm that it was pre-Norman in origin. Excavations in the northwest comer of the Roman fort have also, revealed the foundations and font of an even earlier church of c.400, one of the earliest Christian structures known in Britain.
