Lent | Holy Week | Easter #Lentpilgrim INTRODUCTION lent | holy week | easter #LentPilgrim INTRODUCTION his Lent, the Church of England is focusing on pilgrimage. In that spirit, we have created this virtual pilgrimage which T takes us on a journey from the Cathedral to the Cross, from Bristol to the bitter passion of Golgotha. It is not a straight path, as life is not straightforward, but twists and turns through the countries, and across the centuries. Accompanied by saints with links to places along the way, we will journey through Lent as we travel across Britain, France, Italy, and on into the Middle East. As we reach Rome, the pilgrimage retraces the journey of St Paul, in reverse, taking us from Rome, through Sicily, Malta, Rhodes, and beyond, until we arrive in Jerusalem, at the foot of the Cross. In addition to this devotional pilgrimage, from the back page of this booklet you will find details of services on Easter Day and in Holy Week, along with additional events and services such as the Lent Lunches, reading Mark right through, and Stations of the Cross. We pray that you will choose to travel with us for part or all of this journey. Booklet compiled and created by Tim Popple, 2019 FORTY DAYS AND FORTY NIGHTS Day 1 Jordan Bristol Day 2 Aldhelm Malmesbury Day 3 Osmund Salisbury Day 4 Swithun Winchester Day 5 Frideswide Oxford Day 6 Alban St Albans Day 7 John Donne London Day 8 William Rochester Day 9 Æthelberht Kent Day 10 Thomas Becket Canterbury Day 11 Richard of Chichester Dover Day 12 William de St-Calais Calais Day 13 Remigius Picardy Day 14 Joan of Arc Rouen Day 15 Thérèse Lisieux Day 16 Fulbert Chartres Day 17 Julian Le Mans Day 18 Donatian and Rogatian Nantes Day 19 Hilary Poitiers Day 20 Martin Tours Day 21 Adela of Normandy Blois Day 22 Bernard Clairvaux Day 23 Peter Chanel Montrevel en Bresse Day 24 Irenaeus Lyon Day 25 Ambrose Milan Day 26 Mark Venice Day 27 Catherine Bologna Day 28 John the Baptist Florence Day 29 Catherine Siena Day 30 Francis Assisi Day 31 Augustine of Canterbury Rome Day 32 Paul’s Journey Puteoli Day 33 Thomas Aquinas Syracuse Day 34 Paul’s Journey Malta Day 35 Paul’s Journey Rhodes Day 36 Basil the Great Caesarea Day 37 Paul’s Journey Jerusalem Day 38 Maundy Thursday Day 39 Good Friday Day 40 Holy Saturday JORDAN BRISTOL Day Little is known of Saint Jordan, though a 15th Century hymn (below) describes him as 1 a companion of Saint Augustine, who helped preach the gospel to the English, and 6/3/19 whose relics were later entombed in Bristol. Hymn to Jordan, anon, found in a Bristol Book of Hours O Jordan, blessed confessor of Christ and citizen of Heaven, intercede for us by virtue of the faith we of the English church profess, whom Augustine baptised and you perfected in that holy trust, whose colleague you were in his preaching to the English. Be our Patron in this place where you lie entombed. ALDHELM MALMESBURY Day Aldhelm (c.639-709), Abbot of Malmesbury Abbey, Bishop of Sherborne, Latin poet 2 and scholar of Anglo-Saxon literature, was born before the middle of the 7th century. 7/3/19 He is said to have been the son of Kenten, who was of the royal house of Wessex. A Prayer for St Aldhelm O God, who hast made our lips to extol thee, and acceptest the art of his hand and voice: We praise thee for the example of thy servant Aldhelm as a leader of the minds of thy people and a sweet singer of the divine praises: beseeching thee to continue to the Church in this land a full supply of the saints, skilled as in Christian learning, so also in works of beauty and sacred song; to the glory of thy holy name in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. OSMUND SALISBURY Day Osmund (d.1099), Count of Sées, was a Norman noble and clergyman. Following the 3 Norman conquest of England, he served as Lord Chancellor (c.1070-78) and as the second bishop of Salisbury, or Old Sarum. 8/3/19 A Prayer for St Osmund O God, our heavenly Father, who raised up your faithful servant Osmund to be a bishop and pastor in your Church and to feed your flock: Give abundantly to all pastors the gifts of your Holy Spirit, that they may minister in your household as true servants of Christ and stewards of your divine mysteries; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. SWITHUN WINCHESTER Day Swithun (d.863) was an Anglo-Saxon bishop of Winchester and subsequently patron saint of Winchester Cathedral. His historical importance as bishop is overshadowed by 4 his reputation for posthumous miracle-working. According to tradition, if it rains on Saint Swithin's bridge (Winchester) on his feast day (15 July) it will continue for forty 9/3/19 days. The Collect for St Swithun Almighty God, by whose grace we celebrate the feast of your servant Swithun: grant that, as he governed with gentleness the people committed to his care, so we, rejoicing in our Christian inheritance, may always seek to build up your Church in unity and love; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen. FRITHUSWITH OXFORD Day 5 Saint Frithuswith (c.650-727) was an English princess and abbess. She is credited with establishing a religious site later incorporated into Christ Church in Oxford – Frithuswith 11/3/19 was the first abbess of this Oxford double monastery. Shrine of St Frideswide, Christ Church Cathedral Oxford A Prayer for Frithuswith Heavenly Father, who inspired thy servant Frithuswith to give up earthly desires for a life of prayerful dedication to the work of your son, Jesus Christ; inspire us also to cast off earthly distraction and clothe ourselves in a life in the footsteps of our Saviour, through the same thy Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen ALBAN ST ALBANS Day Saint Alban is venerated as the first-recorded British martyr. Along with fellow Saints 6 Julius and Aaron, Alban is one of three named martyrs recorded at an early date from Roman Britain (“Amphibalus” was the name given much later to the priest he was said 12/3/19 to have been protecting). The Alban Prayer Among the roses of the martyrs brightly shines Saint Alban. Almighty God, we thank you for this place built to your glory and in memory of Alban, our first martyr. Following his example in the fellowship of the saints, may we worship and adore the true and living God, and be faithful witnesses to the Christ, who is alive and reigns, now and for ever. Pray for us Alban, pray for us, all Saints of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Amen. JOHN DONNE LONDON Day 7 John Donne (1572-1631) was an English poet and cleric. He is considered the pre- eminent representative of the metaphysical poets. In 1621, he was appointed as Dean 13/3/19 of St Paul's Cathedral. A Prayer of John Donne Bring us, O Lord God, at our last awakening into the house and gate of heaven, to enter into that gate and dwell in that house, where there shall be no darkness nor dazzling, but one equal light; no noise nor silence, but one equal music; no fears nor hopes, but one equal possession; no ends nor beginnings, but one equal eternity: in the habitations of thy majesty and glory, world without end. Amen. WILLIAM ROCHESTER Day 8 14/3/19 Saint William of Rochester (d.1201) was a Scottish saint who was martyred in England. A Prayer of William of Rochester God of the broken, God of the wanderer, Christ who is without shelter, surround those in deep need among us. Surround them and help us hear their cries for help. We are a people who long for the broken to be mended, we long for justice in the face of much corruption, we want to practice hospitality but have legitimate fears, surround us in our trying times and help us to reach beyond ourselves. We confess we are bogged down by so much need in the world, may we have the courage to stand for what is right even when it offends, may we have the imaginations to help create a better world, and the strength of your Spirit to carry on. Let us be as you are in this world. Amen. ÆTHELBERHT KENT Day Æthelberht (c. 550-616) was King of Kent from about 589 until his death. Bede, in his Ecclesiastical History of the English People, lists him as the third king to hold imperium 9 over other Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. In the late ninth century Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, he is referred to as a bretwalda, or “Britain-ruler”. He was the first English king to convert 15/3/19 to Christianity. A Prayer for Æthelbert O God, who called your servant Æthelbert of Kent to an earthly Throne that he might advance your heavenly kingdom, and gave him zeal for your Church and love for your people: Mercifully grant that we who commemorate him this day may be fruitful in good works, and attain to the glorious crown of your saints; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

Abstract This thesis examines a number of miracle collections and hagiographies written by Winchester monks in the late tenth century. It compares three different accounts of the cult of Swithun by Lantfred, Wulfstan and Ӕlfric, as well as comparing Wulfstan‟s and Ӕlfric‟s Vita Ӕthelwoldi. There were two main objectives to the thesis. The first was to examine whether an analysis of miracle narratives could tell us anything important about how a monastic community perceived itself, especially in relation to the wider world? This was tested by applying approaches used by Thomas Head and Raymond Van Dam to an Anglo- Saxon context.

    ANYONE WHO ADHERES TO THE DOCTRINES OF FR. FEENEY IS BARRED FROM RECEIVING THE SACRAMENTS IN THIS CHAPEL. In the 1940’s, Fr. Leonard Feeney S.J. promoted the heresy that there was no such thing as baptism of blood or baptism of desire. Fr. Feeney’s teaching is contrary to the universal ordinary magisterium of the Catholic Church. It was condemned in 1949 by the Most Holy Trinity Seminary Holy Office. All Catholics are bound under pain of mortal sin to give assent to the teachings of the Holy Office.

  • Saint Peter Chanel
    Saint Peter Chanel Saint Peter Chanel (Priest and Martyr) Saint Peter Chanel was born at Cuet (France) on 12 July 1803 and died on 28 April 1841 on Futuna (South-west Pacific Ocean). 28 April He was a diocesan priest for three years before joining the Society of Mary (Marists). He was sent out to evangelize the people on the Island of Futuna in the Pacific and is remembered for the mis- sionary work he carried out. He learned the local language of the people (there was no Internet or audio-visual materials available in his day) and at first he was very successful in wining converts for Christ. The local ruler Niuliki became jealous of Peter Chanel’s success (especially after Niuliki’s son and one of his friends became baptized) and so he sent some men to set upon Peter Chanel and club him to death. Saint Peter Chanel is honoured as the first martyr of the Church in Oceania. What lesson can we learn from Saint Peter Chanel’s life? What does the word evangelization mean? The biblical definition in Christianity of evangelization is the commitment to or act of publicly preaching (ministry) the Gospel with the intention to share the message and teachings of Jesus Christ. Saint Peter Chanel was so driven by the message of the Gospel that he lost his life because of his commitment to the teachings of Jesus. The challenge Saint Peter Chanel faced is not much different today. We still have to proclaim the message of the Gospel to people who may not want to hear it.

  • Religion and the Church in Geoffrey of Monmouth
    Chapter 14 Religion and the Church in Geoffrey of Monmouth Barry Lewis Few authors inspire as many conflicting interpretations as Geoffrey of Monmouth. On one proposition, however, something close to a consen- sus reigns: Geoffrey of Monmouth wrote history in a manner that shows re- markable indifference toward religion and the institutional church. Antonia Gransden, in her fundamental survey of medieval English historical writing, says that “the tone of his work is predominantly secular” and even that he “abandoned the Christian intention of historical writing” and “had no moral, edificatory purpose”, while J.S.P. Tatlock, author of what is still the fullest study of Geoffrey, speaks of a “highly intelligent, rational and worldly personality” who shows “almost no interest in monachism … nor in miracles”, nor indeed in “religion, theology, saints, popes, even ecclesiastics in general”.1 Yet, even if these claims reflect a widely shared view, it is nonetheless startling that they should be made about a writer who lived in the first half of the 12th century. Some commentators find Geoffrey’s work so divergent from the norms of ear- lier medieval historiography that they are reluctant to treat him as a historian at all. Gransden flatly describes him as “a romance writer masquerading as an historian”.2 More cautiously, Matilda Bruckner names Geoffrey among those Latin historians who paved the way for romance by writing a secular-minded form of history “tending to pull away from the religious model (derived from Augustine and Orosius) that had viewed human history largely within the scheme of salvation”.3 This Christian tradition of historiography, against which Geoffrey of Monmouth is said to have rebelled, had its origins in late antiquity in the works of Eusebius, Augustine, and Orosius.

  • Diocesan House for Durham and Newcastle Dioceses Peace
    2017 Diocesan House for Durham and Newcastle Dioceses Peace... 2 Dear Friends, What a busy year it has been! We celebrated our 70th Anniversary at a lovely garden party in June and it was a joy to share the day with so many of our friends and to see the house and grounds looking so beautiful. The Stirling Newall family, who gifted the house to the church 70 years ago, had a clear vision of what they wanted the house and grounds to be used for and I hope that we continue to hold true to that vision today; a place of retreat, refreshment and peace which is used both by church groups and by the wider community. With the approach of Autumn comes the changing Jane Easterby, Warden, the Ven. Ian Jagger, Archdeacon of Durham, the of colours in the gardens of Shepherds Dene and the Rt. Rev.

  • Saint's Law: Anglo-Saxon Sanctuary Protection in the Translatio Et Miracula S. Swithuni1
    Saint’s Law: Anglo-Saxon Sanctuary Protection in the Translatio et Miracula S. Swithuni 1 John P. Sexton Patrick Wormald’s handlist of Anglo-Saxon lawsuits begins its gesta and miracula evi- dence with three consecutive suits from Lantfred of Winchester’s c. 972 Translatio et Miracula S. Swithuni.2 The suits, which appear in chapters 25-27, describe the trial by ordeal of a servant accused of “a certain misdeed” (quodam facinore, 25.3), the mutila- tion of a man accused of robbery, and an “arraignment of a man for appropriation of the king’s corn.”3 Although Wormald classifies the third item, like the first, as a “rescue from prison or penalty” case in contrast to the sanctuary cases he identifies in the Vita S. Edithae Virginis and De Miraculis S. Edmundi,4 the corn-appropriation or “wheat- thief” episode rightly belongs in both categories since it intentionally evokes the defin- ing characteristics of sanctuary protection in pre-Conquest legislation. Sanctuary mir- acles are, in fact, quite common in the Anglo-Saxon hagiographic record, informed by 1 I use the modern historian’s term “sanctuary” throughout to indicate the full spectrum of asylum- taking traditions. For a discussion of the various terms employed during the medieval period, see Shoe- maker,“Medieval Sanctuary Law,”22-29. I am grateful to Dr. Shoemaker for providing me with a copy of his dissertation. 2 Wormald,“A Handlist,”269. The three cases are numbered 154-156. The “wheat-thief” episode is retold in Wulfstan of Winchester’s c. 994 Narratio Metrica de Sancto Swithuno (2.10).

But bread by any other name and baked in any other shape can be called “the staff of life.” Little wonder that Jesus was called the Bread of Life. He is the source of human nourishment, happiness, and community. In our first reading from 1 Kings 19:4-8, Elijah faced a difficult journey to Mt. Horeb. After a day’s journey in the desert, he prayed for death.
