Several of our members from the Middlesbrough/Redcar area at- tended an ecumenical service last week held in the Roman Catholic Cathedral, Coulby Newham, Middlesbrough (this is where some of you have travelled on two occasions for Lady Day Services). It was entitled ‘The Beatitude Stations of the Cross’ and was led by the Bishop of Middlesbrough, the Archdeacon of Cleveland and the Dean of the Cathedral. It was a moving service with those who were reading moving around the Stations and the congregation watching their progress; it was also thought provoking, not least because of the denominations worshiping together, in the wake of the Archbishops of Canterbury and Westminster’s example. I feel that the seeds are being sown towards Christian Unity. 5 In a similar way, as Mothers’ Union members, we are striving to sow seeds, and of course nurturing the growth, from them in order to bring more people to know about the aims and objects; and the work here and across the world of our organisation and hopefully through that in- crease the membership. Unfortunately we are still without co-ordinators for the Action and Out- reach and the Faith and Policy Units, the work is continuing, overseen by the Vice-presidents of Cleveland and East Riding and helped by mem- bers of trustees and general membership. COULD YOU DO THESE IMPORTANT AND WORTHWHILE JOBS OR DO YOU KNOW OF SOMEONE WHO WOULD DO A SPLENDID JOB? I have received the statistics, collated from the branch figures, sadly the numbers have dropped again. I wonder if you can advise us as to why members are lapsing. I know that some are finding the rising cost diffi- cult to meet; but if branches collect subscriptions in instalments (some already do) then that might help the situation. There are some branches actively recruiting younger members and this is wonderful; it is just what we need—young, fit and enthusiastic mem- bers to be able to take the organisation into the future. There is a new branch opening in Bridlington in May, so thank you to all who are work- ing hard to achieve progress in our Diocese. Congratulations to all those who have enrolled new members this past year and also to the branches celebrating milestones of 90,100 and 110 year anniversaries this year. I continue to enjoy travelling around the diocese, often accompanied by my very supportive and patient husband, Ian; and hope to be able to see many more of you in the near future. With love and prayers to you all Olwyn 6 CONGRATULATIONS! What an exciting day the M.U. members who make up the Pris- on volunteers for Hull Prison have recently had. Stella Vernon, Jean Clark, Emma Clark, Dianne Bell, Faith Spink, and Jean Sergeant make up the Pison Volunteers Team at Hull Prison and the team was nominated by the Hull P.L.A. For the North Division Volunteer Award. Two members were interviewed the other week and they all went to Leeds for the Awards Ceremony. All of them were delighted to win the award for the OUTSTANDING VOLUNTEER TEAM PRISON PLAY PROJECT H.M.P. HULL The award was presented by Ed Ball MP and the team now go forward to the National finals. The interviews will take place in London and presentations will be made at the AGM in Birming- ham in June. UPDATE. Mrs Cooke received a phone call from Canon Vernon on Monday 28th April saying that they had been award- ed joint winners at National Level and will receive the award at a ceremony on June 6th 2014..More details of award ceremony in the next newsletter. Congratulations to the 'Super Six'! 7 Mothers’ Union Members of the Church of Ascension with St Thomas’s Branch and their special day during National Marriage Week in February One of our members, Judy, who is an expert at card making, set us with the task of making marriage anniversary cards. We had a wonderful 2 hours putting our own designs and creation together which made an attractive display for the Church for everyone to enjoy. Is this an idea for other branches to follow to celebrate mar- riage? At lunch time Stephen, our vicar, took us out and we had lunch together in a garden centre where we had a happy time chat- ting about our marriages and the beautiful cards we had made. We had enjoyed a truly extra special day. Isobel Gooder, Branch Leader 8 Wheels Appeal in Action ............ The figures below give an indication of how far Mothers’ Union Community Development Coordinators travelled on their wheels to support families in their neighbourhoods in 2013. Morogoro, the Provincial CDC in Tanzania, travelled 3531 km in one year using buses, motorbike, lorry and by walking. Jocelyne is CDC for the Diocese of Antananarivo, Madagasgar. She trav- elled about 600 km to the Diocese of Toliara, which doesn’t have a CDC, to provide training and support. It took her 12 hours on poor roads and she took a mini bus, as a car is too expen- sive. Vanessa (name changed to protect her identity), the Provincial CDC in Myanmar, travelled 593 km by plane from Yangon to Rakhine state to de- liver training on microcredit to vul- nerable communities. 9 Betty Oruru is CDC for the Diocese of Lango in Uganda and travelled over 3500 km by bicycles, motor vehicles and motor cycles. She visited 36 parishes across her own Diocese. One of the main reasons for this was to raise awareness of, and bring about a reduction in Gender Based Vio- lence. She also travelled to the Provincial office in Kampala twice and to other Dio- ceses such as Northern Uganda, Mbale and Luwero in order to share training and learning. Aimee Masika is CDC for the Diocese of North Kivu, DR Con- go. She travelled 282 km from Butembo to Goma and had to take a Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) aircraft as it is too unsafe to travel across her Diocese by road due to the ongoing conflict in the region. 10 Alice is CDC for the Diocese of Marsabit, Kenya. She oversees an area the size of England and travelled 15,000 km last year. But reaching some areas is made difficult by harsh climate, long distances, poor roads and tribal conflicts. Nonetheless, she is determined to help these communities establish change and empower women within a traditionally male dominated culture. www.mothersunion.org MU registered charity number 240531 Le Church, Le Tour 2014, Le Welcome to Yorkshire Saturday 5 July—Leeds to Harrogate—191 Km Sunday 6 July—York to Sheffield—198 Km 11 Judy Cooke The Mothers’ Union in Hull Deanery lost a very com- mitted, loyal and inspirational member with the death of Judy Cooke. She had been a faithful member of the Ferriby and Swanland branch for many years and for over 20 years Judy was the correspondent for the Indoor Members across Hull Deanery. Judy kept in touch with the members with Birthday and Christmas cards and, with the help of her branch members and her husband Alan, she held an annual afternoon tea party in her home for as many mem- bers who could attend. For the Mothers’ Union 125th anniversary branches were challenged to raising an extra £125. Judy rose to this challenge and with Alan as quizmaster ran a quiz night. Up to this day that quiz has been held each year raising over £5,000 for Mothers’ Union Projects worldwide. We give thanks to God for Judy’s life, her faith, her example of perseverance and courage in extreme dif- ficulty and we keep Alan, all her family and many friends in our prayers. Editor's note: Obituaries are not normally included although an exception was made in this case - for obvious reasons. 12 Memories of Wydale Autumn 2013 For me, the 'Miracle of Silence' as over 30 mem- bers explored the various 'Prayer Stations' around Wydale both inside and out. Yes, over half-an- hour of silent prayer. Wow! As always the Retreat was special, and I par- ticularly appreciated the prayer cards with the colourful butterfly design. Olwyn Cooke, Rev. Sam Foster and Hilary Bolton Definitely need to thank Muriel for all her efforts.. Retreat very enjoyable in general.. Free expressions Church is a bit of a mystery for many members but Sam is a real star and her work needs broadcasting as widely as possible.

    The Value of Books

    The Value of Books: The York Minster Library as a social arena for commodity exchange. Master’s thesis, 60 credits, Spring 2018 Author: Luke Kelly Supervisor: Gudrun Andersson Seminar chair: Dag Lindström Date: 12/01/2018 HISTORISKA INSTITUTIONEN It would be the height of ignorance, and a great irony, if within a work focused on the donations of books, that the author fails to acknowledge and thank those who assisted in its production. Having been distant from both Uppsala and close friends whilst writing this thesis, (and missing dearly the chances to talk to others in person), it goes without saying that this work would not be possible if I had not had the support of many generous and wonderful people. Although to attempt to thank all those who assisted would, I am sure, fail to acknowledge everyone, a few names should be highlighted: Firstly, thank you to all of my fellow EMS students – the time spent in conversation over coffees shaped more of this thesis than you would ever realise. Secondly, to Steven Newman and all in the York Minster Library – without your direction and encouragement I would have failed to start, let alone finish, this thesis. Thirdly, to all members of History Node, especially Mikael Alm – the continued enthusiasm felt from you all reaches further than you know. Fourthly, to my family and closest – thank you for supporting (and proof reading, Maja Drakenberg) me throughout this process. Any success of the work can be attributed to your assistance. Finally, to Gudrun Andersson – thank you for offering guidance and support throughout this thesis’ production.

  • Introduction

    Introduction

    INTRODUCTION. FORMER publications * of the Camden Society have brought before our notice Richard Duke of Gloucester, as continually engaged in the intrigues of a court or the storms of civil war, while for four centuries both his person and character have been the theme of almost universal vituperation. Into these subjects it is not the province of the editor of the present volume to enter; and, in truth, there is now the less occasion for it, since the volumes of Miss Halsted have appeared in the field of literature. This talented and zealous writer has adduced a host of authorities, apparently proving that his personal deformity existed but in the libels of an opposing faction, perpetuated in the pages of the poet and the novelist; while at the same time her researches seem to throw such light over the darker shades in his chequered career, as to induce the strongest presumption that he was not guilty of, or accessory to, those startling crimes which have been charged to his account. The limits, however, of the brief introduction allotted to this work, compel us to turn our attention from scenes of battle and of blood to other, and to us more interesting portions of his history. When, on the partition f of Warwick's vast domains between the sister heiresses, the lordship and manor of Middleharn, with its ancestral castle, became the fair heritage of Gloucester in * Historic of the Arrival of Edward IV. ; Warkworth's Chronicle ; and Polydore Vergil; being Nos.

There have, not unexpectedly, been considerable archival losses too, as some later vacancy inventories at York make clear: the Durham sede vacante register of Alexander Neville (1381) and accompanying visitation records; the York sede vacante register after Neville’s own translation in 1388; the register of Thomas Arundel (only the register of his vicars-general survives today), and the register of Robert Waldby (likewise only his vicar-general’s register is now extant) have all long disappeared.1 Some of these would also have included records of ordinations, now missing from the chronological sequence.

We want to see mutual resourcing to build up the Body of Christ, to grow in five areas: • Christ-likeness Becoming like Christ is the fundamental call of Christian discipleship. It is not always easy to assess, but we often recognise the flavour of a life becoming more godly. • Commitment Commitment itself has several features, including: commitment to God, to seeking God’s kingdom, to Christ’s body the Church. • Partnership Working with other churches, locally and globally, with schools, community groups, people, organisations for the common good, peace, justice and a healthy environment.

    New Bishop of Hull and New Archdeacon of Cleveland

    News from the Church of England between the Humber and the Tees May 2015 New Bishop of Hull and new Archdeacon of Cleveland On Wednesday 25th March, Archbishop Sentamu announced our new Bishop of Hull - the Revd Canon Alison White, and our new Archdeacon of Cleveland - the Revd Sam Rushton. The official announcements were made at Bishopthorpe Palace, where the choir of Archbishop of York's CofE Junior School, Bishopthorpe, sang at a service in the chapel. The Revd Canon Alison White then visited places in her new Archdeaconry - Archbishop Sentamu Academy in Hull, and All Saints Church in Kilham, near Driffield. At Archbishop Sentamu Academy, Alison was welcomed by Principal School, and an amazing afternoon Andrew Chubb and the school's tea (with bubbly) courtesy of All choir, and treated to lunch (and lots Saints Church. of media interviews!).

  • The Canterbury Association

    The Canterbury Association

    The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry.

It has often been defined by contemporary criticism, such as this assuredly rhetorical statement by John of Salisbury, or through the charters, acta, of archdeacons themselves, which are dominated by only the administrative processes of the office.
