    Wednesday 16Th October 2019 Dear Friends, Following My Recent Announcement That the Venerable David Picken Will Be Moving on In

    Wednesday 16th October 2019 Dear Friends, Following my recent announcement that the Venerable David Picken will be moving on in mid-January 2020 to take up his new appointment as the Archdeacon of Lancaster, I can now confirm the interim arrangements which will enable a smooth transition until a new archdeacon is appointed. The Revd Canon Mark Adams, Vicar of the Beck & Trent Benefice and currently Area Dean for Southwell & Newark in the Newark Archdeaconry, has agreed to be interim Assistant Archdeacon for the Newark archdeaconry with a particular focus on providing support to Area Deans as well as in managing the appointment process with parishes in vacancy. The Venerable Phil Williams, Archdeacon of Nottingham, will support the Newark Archdeaconry in relation to any statutory archidiaconal matters that arise, though Mark will be the first point of contact. I am pleased to let you know that The Revd Andrew Porter, Vicar of Holy Trinity Church, Southwell will act as Assistant Area Dean for Newark & Southwell during this interim period. There will be a handover period for David, Mark and Andrew through December, prior to David’s last day on 16th January. Please note that there will be a Farewell Service in Southwell Minster on Wednesday 15th January, at 7.30pm, to give thanks for David’s ministry in the diocese and pray for him and Cathy as they prepare for God’s new calling for them to serve in the Diocese of Blackburn. May I take this opportunity to express my thanks to both Mark and Andrew for the gifts they will bring during this interim period.

    Slctccstcvsljtvc antr 10th January, 1855. A MEETING was held in the Town Library, Guild Hall, Leicester, for the purpose of establishing this society. The Venerable the Archdeacon of Leicester was in the chair. He requested Mr. Ingram (the honorary secretary, pro tempore) to read the letters received from various persons who had signified their desire to become members.—The first was from the Bishop of the Diocese, who also expressed his willingness to promote the objects of the society. The second was from Earl Howe, regretting his inability to attend. In a previous letter his lordship stated " I shall be very happy to be enrolled a member, and I assure you I take a decided interest in your proceedings/' Letters from the Rev. G. E. Gillett (mentioning that the Duke of Rutland would accept the office of Patron); from Sir F. G. Fowke (excus­ ing his non-attendance on the ground of ill health, which con­ fined him to his room); and from Mr. Geoffrey Palmer (apolo­ gizing for his inability to be present)—were also laid before the meeting. This part of the business being concluded, the venerable Chairman called on Mr. W. Perry-Herrick, who rose to move the first resolution. He expressed his gratification at being able to take part in the formation of a society which he felt certain would be attended with many beneficial effects, in conducing to the study of eccle­ siastical architecture and general antiquities in the county. He stated his regret that he was so little acquainted with either Archaeology or Architecture ; but that he knew sufficient to enable him to appreciate the value of the labours of those who had leisure to devote themselves more particularly to these interesting pur­ suits, and he hoped, by associating with them at the meetings of the society, he might improve his knowledge, and receive much information and instruction.

    Diocese in Europe Prayer Diary, July to December 2011

    DIOCESE IN EUROPE PRAYER DIARY, JULY TO DECEMBER 2011 This calendar has been compiled to help us to pray together for one another and for our common concerns. Each chaplaincy, with the communities it serves, is remembered in prayer once a year, according to the following pattern: Eastern Archdeaconry - January, February Archdeaconry of France - March, April Archdeaconry of Gibraltar - May, June Diocesan Staff - July Italy & Malta Archdeaconry - July Archdeaconry of North West Europe - August, September Archdeaconry of Germany and Northern Europe Nordic and Baltic Deanery - September, October Germany - November Swiss Archdeaconry - November, December Each Archdeaconry, with its Archdeacon, is remembered on a Sunday. On the other Sundays, we pray for subjects which affect all of us (e.g. reconciliation, on Remembrance Sunday), or which have local applications for most of us (e.g. the local cathedral or cathedrals). Some chaplains might like to include prayers for the other chaplaincies in their deanery. We also include the Anglican Cycle of Prayer (daily, www.aco.org), the World Council of Churches prayer cycle (weekly, www.oikoumene.org, prayer resources on site), the Porvoo Cycle (weekly, www.porvoochurches.org), and festivals and commemorations from the Common Worship Lectionary (www.churchofengland.org/prayer-worship/worship/texts.aspx). Sundays and Festivals, printed in bold type, have special readings in the Common Worship Lectionary. Lesser Festivals, printed in normal type, have collects in the Common Worship Lectionary. Commemorations, printed in italics, may have collects in Exciting Holiness, and additional, non- biblical, readings for all of these may be found in Celebrating the Saints (both SCM-Canterbury Press).
