  • The Sign We Give

    The Sign We Give

    The Sign We Give Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales Foreword by Bishop Crispian Hollis "We are convinced that the manner and style of relationships in the Church are part of the sign it gives and, for this reason, we must develop patterns of collaborative ministry as a key feature of Church life to come." That sentence from the Glenridding Reflections of the Bishops' Conference has had a major influence in bringing to birth this report and the conclusions and recommendations that it makes. The report addresses the urgent need that we have to establish patterns of working and collaborating in the Church - patterns which respect and cherish the essential dignity and consequent responsibility for the life and mission of the Church which belongs to every baptised Christian. It has been my privilege to have been a member of the working party which has, under the very able direction of Pat Jones, produced this report. We are not attempting to say the last word about Collaborative Ministry because that word will differ from community to community, and, in the end, such a word can only he written by those who participate in the process. This is an attempt to encourage the Church at every level "to think more deeply and more imaginatively about the theology and practice of collaborative ministry." It comes with the wholehearted approval of the Bishops' Conference and, if I may be permitted a personal reflection, I believe that it contains the seeds of a revolution in the way in which we live and work in the Church today.

    NJPN North West Justice & Peace E-Bulletin July 2018 The e-bulletin for the North West, linked to the National Justice and Peace Network (NJPN), is produced jointly by the dioceses of Lancaster, Liverpool, Salford, Shrewsbury and Wrexham. Please send diary dates to [email protected] OPINION: AT WHAT COST TO OUR SOUL? Rev. Adam Taylor, Executive Director of Sojourners, Sojourners magazine 26 June 2018 In moments of moral crisis, certain issues break through the clutter and cacophony of the daily headlines. The U.S. government’s horrific separation of children from their parents at the border is one of those moments. President Donald Trump and his administration underestimated the degree of moral outrage that would follow this unconscionable policy, and falsely believed that a poorly-conceived executive order would resolve the crisis and suppress public pressure. But as church leaders in South Africa taught me many years ago, Kairos-like moments occur when our current reality becomes so fraudulent and egregious that the status quo is no longer acceptable. It is these moments when people of faith and conscience feel called to engage in increasingly bold and sacrificial action. Today, Sojourners president Jim Wallis and I will be joining the Poor People’s Campaign and other faith leaders in a nonviolent civil disobedience action in front of the White House to protest this zero-tolerance policy and the family separation crisis at the border. We will declare that the violence of policies against children cannot be tolerated. We have no illusions that this direct action on its own will change the hearts and minds of the Trump administration.
