  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2021
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2021 The Porvoo Declaration commits the churches which have signed it ‘to share a common life’ and ‘to pray for and with one another’. An important way of doing this is to pray through the year for the Porvoo churches and their Dioceses. The Prayer Diary is a list of Porvoo Communion Dioceses or churches covering each Sunday of the year, mindful of the many calls upon compilers of intercessions, and the environmental and production costs of printing a more elaborate list. Those using the calendar are invited to choose one day each week on which they will pray for the Porvoo churches. It is hoped that individuals and parishes, cathedrals and religious orders will make use of the Calendar in their own cycle of prayer week by week. In addition to the churches which have approved the Porvoo Declaration, we continue to pray for churches with observer status. Observers attend all the meetings held under the Agreement. The Calendar may be freely copied or emailed for wider circulation. The Prayer Diary is updated once a year. For corrections and updates, please contact Ecumenical Officer, Maria Bergstrand, Ms., Stockholm Diocese, Church of Sweden, E-mail: [email protected] JANUARY 3/1 Church of England: Diocese of London, Bishop Sarah Mullally, Bishop Graham Tomlin, Bishop Pete Broadbent, Bishop Rob Wickham, Bishop Jonathan Baker, Bishop Ric Thorpe, Bishop Joanne Grenfell.

  • July/Aug 2020 Grapevine
    Grapevine The Newsletter for the Communities of South Cave Ellerker and Broomfleet July/August 2020 Subscription : 40p per copy 1 2 NORMAL CHURCH? Over recent weeks I have been in conversation with a number of colleagues about what the life of the post Covid 19 Church might look like. A recurring phrase to describe what the Church might look like is, ‘a new normal’. The following is an extract from the most recent pastoral letter from The Rt Revd Paul Ferguson, (Bishop of Whitby). ‘Dr Sentamu’s successor, Bishop Stephen Cottrell, will legally become Archbishop of York on 9 July and will be communicating with us very shortly after. It will be some time later when he is able to take up his regular duties. In the intervening month, I am holding the responsibilities of diocesan bishop on an acting basis… Thank you so much for your faithful determination to keep the life of the Diocese in good heart during this time of anti-virus restrictions. Church life in future will be different, and at this stage we do not know how different. This is something about which we need to speak, at both parish and diocesan level — always with prayerful confidence and not anxiety. If we have concerns or if we have seen opportunities, they are best spoken about so that we can share one another’s hopes as well as burdens. The bishops and archdeacons will be engaging particularly with Deanery Leadership Teams to explore how we might meet the opportunities and challenges with courage and hope. Yes, the different future will have some good aspects that we bring from the present uncertainties.
