We have a fantastic choir: men, boys and girls who make beautiful music week in, week out. People travel a long way to hear our choir. St Augustine is quoted as saying: ‘He who sings, prays twice’ and, in different ways, singing has always been a key part of Christian discipleship through the ages. Many of you will be able to quote many hymns and psalms off by heart much more easily than you can quote pieces of scripture. Charles Wesley understood how memorable a good hymn-lyric can be and therefore had a strong belief that hymns were one of the best ways that ordinary people learn theology. He intentionally wrote hymns rich in meaning that early Methodists would remember better than any sermon. Our reading from Acts today suggests the enormous impact that singing for God can have. We hear of Paul and Silas being arrested and being put in prison for their demonstration of their faith. After being severely beaten, they were thrown into the innermost cell. Yet their response is astounding. Instead of licking their wounds and feeling upset at their unfair treatment, we hear that Paul and Silas had a midnight bout of hymn-singing, keeping the other prisoners awake as they listened to the early apostles singing praises to God. Paul and Silas’ singing had an impact on those around them, not only those who were listening, but it also seems that they had an impact on the spiritual world. As they sang through the night hours, suddenly there was a massive earthquake which freed all the inmates and was the source of the conversion of the jailer and his family. On the feast day of John and Charles Wesley, Friday 24 May, St Peter’s Singers will be starting a 24 hour hymn-a-thon here at Leeds Minster. Although we hope their midnight hymn-singing won’t cause an earthquake, we do hope they will raise valuable funds. Do come and join in - you don’t have to stay for the whole 24 hours! And remember, next time you are singing in the Minster, that we are not just making a beautiful noise for God, but we are praying twice, we are learning theology and we are having an impact on the physical and spiritual world around us.

  • Unitarian Members of Parliament in the Nineteenth Century
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository Unitarian Members of Parliament in the Nineteenth Century A Catalogue D. W. Bebbington Professor of History, University of Stirling The catalogue that follows contains biographical data on the Unitarians who sat in the House of Commons during the nineteenth century. The main list, which includes ninety-seven MPs, is the body of evidence on which the paper on „Unitarian Members of Parliament in the Nineteenth Century‟ is based. The paper discusses the difficulty of identifying who should be treated as a Unitarian, the criterion chosen being that the individual appears to have been a practising adherent of the denomination at the time of his service in parliament. A supplementary list of supposed Unitarian MPs, which follows the main list, includes those who have sometimes been identified as Unitarians but who by this criterion were not and some who may have been affiliated to the denomination but who were probably not. The borderline is less sharp than might be wished, and, when further research has been done, a few in each list may need to be transferred to the other. Each entry contains information in roughly the same order. After the name appear the dates of birth and death and the period as an MP. Then a paragraph contains general biographical details drawn from the sources indicated at the end of the entry. A further paragraph discusses religious affiliation and activities. Unattributed quotations with dates are from Dod’s Parliamentary Companion, as presented in Who’s Who of British Members of Parliament.

  • Cadmans at Roundhay St John, Leeds by Celia E Moss
    Cadmans at Roundhay St John, Leeds by Celia E Moss 1. Introduction The crypt at Roundhay St John holds a vault where members of three generations of a Leeds family called Cadman are buried. These are Thomas Cadman and his wife Ann née Oastler; their two eldest-born children and their daughter-in-law Amelia née Rhodes; and five of their grandchildren. The Cadman vault was first set up in 1830, relatively soon after the church was first consecrated in 1826. This is the story of these Cadmans and their connections to two other Yorkshire families, the Oastlers of Thirsk and Leeds, and the Rhodes of Leeds and Roundhay. These connections are sketched below, with the people who are buried in the Cadman vault underlined. 2. Thomas Cadman and Ann Oastler Ann Cadman was born Ann Oastler in Thirsk in 1778, the eldest daughter of Robert Oastler and Sarah Scurr. The family portrait of 1791, reproduced below, shows Ann standing to her father's left. Robert Oastler was born in Kirby Wiske in 1748, the Oastlers having been yeomen farmers in the Moorhouse district of Newsham for several generations1 . At the age of 16 he became a fervent Methodist and quarrelled so seriously with his father in consequence that he left home and took refuge in Thirsk with his uncles John and Samson Oastler, both prominent Methodists who had helped to finance the new Wesleyan chapel in Thirsk. Robert grew up as the ward of his uncle John. He often met John Wesley as a guest in his uncle's house and "their acquaintanceship ripened into a more than common friendship2".

  • Unitarians Henry
    The Unitarians Henry Gow THE UNITARIANS BY HENRY GOW, MA., D.D. METHUEN & CO. LTD. 36 ESSEX STREET W.C. LONDON First Published in 1929 TO MY WIFE PRIEPTED IN GREAT BRITAIN EDITOR'S PREFACE WORD of explanation seems to be needed in A regard to the title and the sub-title which have been chosen for this series. There is one faith, says St. Paul; but the title of the series indicates more than one. A difficulty un- questionably exists at that point. It has not been overlooked. Had the promoters of this series adopted the former point of view and called it "the Faith" instead of "the Faiths", they would have answered in advance an important question which the series itself should be left to answer. But, equally, by calling the series "the Faiths", instead of "the Faith", have they not -prejudged the question in another way? Of the two positions the latter seemed the less 1 dogmatic. Let us take the world as we find it, in -'whichthe Faiths show themselves as a plurality, and , then, if they are really one, or many varieties of the '.[.same,or if only one is true and the rest false, let the .'lfact appear from the accounts they give of them- I,selve's. -. On no other terms could full liberty have been -accorded to the writers who contribute to the series; ,!on no other terms could the task of editing the series :,be fairly carried out. It would have been obviously vii 3 Y, ' EDITOR'S PREFACE viii THE UNITARIANS the hope is entertained that from the present ation of unfair to demand of each of the contributors that he fj differences in this series there may emerge some should exhibit the faith that is in him as ultimately unities hitherto unsuspected or dimly seen ; but that identical with the faith that is in each of his fellow- $ will be as it may.
