Michael J Slade Rector, Humshaugh with Vicar, Chollerton with Birtley, Simonburn & Wark Gunnerton & Thockrington Tel: 01434 681304 Tel: 01434 681721 email: [email protected] email: [email protected] www.humshaughbenefice.org.uk www.chollerton-churches.org.uk HUMSHAUGH BENEFICE Humshaugh Vicarage Dear Readers, Bishops and the Parochial System In the coming months we look forward to two Bishops’ visits to this Benefice: firstly, Bishop Martin is coming to lead us in a service of Holy Communion, to be celebrated at St Peter’s Humshaugh at 10.30am on Sunday 23rd February. Later in the summer we look forward to Bishop Frank coming to hold a Deanery Confirmation at St Mungo’s Simonburn on the morning of Sunday 27th July. These two visits, for rather different purposes, will both be important occasions, each reminding us of the nature of the Church of England. The tradition of our Church, since Anglo Saxon times, has been to encourage a fairly independently spirited clergy to minister, in co-operation with local people, in distinct geographical areas. Over the years that system has shown both strengths and weaknesses, and the degree to which it has been successful is known only to God! Every ‘system’ involving human beings needs its ‘checks and balances’. At their worst, both clergy and parishioners can become remarkably insular in their outlook, and can come to overly treasure ‘their’ way of doing things. Our Bishops exercise their ministry to remind us that we are part of something bigger and more dynamic than a village club or a gathering of the like-minded.
