  • 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.

  • Reports for 2020 Annual Parochial Church Meeting of Clifton Parish
    Reports for 2020 Annual Parochial Church Meeting of Clifton Parish Monday 2nd November 7.30pm via Zoom Annual Report It is difficult to think back to the period April ’19 to April ’20, which should be covered by this Report, as so much has changed over the last 8 months. There will be the chance to reflect on these last few months at a later date – but thinking back to the period of this Report…… - some highlights/significant events from this period. Staff changes – Peter Hallsworth and Jonny Price moved on to take up new positions within the Church - Julian Cripps started as Churchwarden of St Mark’s – the Kelly’s moved to Beverley, where Tim took up the position of Curate at Beverley Minster – Sophie Flockton and Jo Hardie continued to settle into their roles as Children & Families Worker, and Parish Administrator respectively. Archdeacon Sarah Bullock came on a Parish Visitation in April ‘19 and was very impressed with the progress that we had been making – it turned out to be her last visitation before she moved to Lichfield Diocese. The PCC continued to work on the Vision Document – we had meetings in each of the churches of the Parish to get congregational input. The document was sent out to the Parish in early 2020, with Pastoral Care, Prayer and Small Groups & Bible Study being particular priorities at the moment. We have continued to look at mixing sermons on particular themes and topics, with readings from the Lectionary during our Sunday services – and these have been linked with study notes for individuals and small groups.

The academic year opened with the arrival of eleven new Fellows, reducing the average age of the Fellowship, correcting the gender balance, and covering a wide range of College Reports nationalities from Macedonian to Australian. Academic subjects ranged from law through philosophy, theology and English literature to biolog- ical sciences and physics. Regardless of subject and origin, they very soon became part of the community of Trinity Hall, which has always been so inclusive and welcoming. It was also a year for departure, with the retirement of two of our most senior and long-serving Fellows. Colin Austin arrived in 1965 as a Junior Research Fellow, and retired as Professor of Greek, a pre-eminent author- ity on Greek comedy, and of course our wine steward for 35 years.

  • The Eucharist
    Renewal of Commitment to Ministry Maundy Thursday 9 April 2020 11:00 Officiant and Preacher The Rt Revd Dr Michael Ipgrave OBE Bishop of Lichfield with the Rt Revd Clive Gregory, Bishop of Wolverhampton, the Rt Revd Sarah Bullock, Bishop of Shrewsbury. and the Rt Revd Jan McFarlane, Assistant Bishop in the Diocese of Lichfield About This Service The bishops in the Diocese of Lichfield normally gather together all clergy and lay ministers at the Cathedral on the morning of Maundy Thursday in order for us all to reaffirm our commitment to our various ministries, while also blessing and collecting oils for use over the coming year and celebrating the Eucharist together. Sadly, at this present time of crisis it is impossible for us to gather together or to bless the oils. Thanks to modern technology, however, it is possible for us to reaffirm our commitment to ministry together and this service will be streamed on our Diocesan Facebook page and website to enable us to do so. We hope you will feel able to join in with the service from home. We especially hope that priests, deacons and lay ministers will feel able to join in with the renewal of commitment to ministry at the appropriate point in the service. As usual, everything that the congregation is invited to join in with is in bold type. Unfortunately, for copyright reasons, we cannot provide printed versions of the hymns. However, these are well-known hymns, are in many hymn books and the texts are also available online, so we hope that you will be able to provide yourselves with copies and join in.
