170323 Statement by Bishop David Wilbourne 230317

Statement by Bishop David Wilbourne It has been the greatest privilege to be Assistant Bishop of Llandaff these past eight years, a diocese which serves the beating heart of South Wales, teaming with life and hope. It has also been the greatest privilege to have worked with Dr Barry Morgan, the former Archbishop of Wales, and share in his very personable ministry, whose hallmark has been a remarkable reaching out to the lost and forsaken and those on the margins of society, making them feel truly welcome in the name of Christ. Though the weeks since Dr Morgan retired have been full and fulfilling, increasingly I realise it is time to hand over the baton to the newly appointed Bishop of Llandaff, so he or she can run free, enabling the Church which I have cherished these past years to flourish. I therefore intend to finish my time as Assistant Bishop on Easter Day 2017, just before the Sacred Synod approves our new bishop. I do so with the greatest gratitude for all the faithful parish priests and people here, whose marvellous ministry I am daily humbled by. I pray that you are given the bishop you so richly deserve, one who, in the words of Cardinal Basil Hume, simply comes to where people are and takes them to places they never dreamt of going. One of my favourite novels is Trollope’s The Warden. Mr Harding finishes his time as Warden of Hiram’s hospital with these words, which I would like to make my own: ‘God bless you all! You have my heartfelt wishes for your welfare. I hope you may live contented, and die trusting in the Lord Jesus Christ, thankful to Almighty God for all the good things he has given you.’ 23 March 2017 Llys Esgob, Lawnt y Gadeirlan, Llandaf, Caerdydd CF5 2YE Llys Esgob, Cathedral Green, Llandaff, Cardiff CF5 2YE 029 2056 2400 029 2056 8410 E [email protected] .

Church in Wales Review July 2012
Church in Wales Review July 2012 The September 2010 meeting of the Governing Body was notable for the number of contributions from members with a common message: “The Church in Wales cannot go on doing the same things in the same way; some things need to change and we are open to – and indeed encourage – that possibility”. The Standing Committee and Bench of Bishops responded to this call by appointing an external review of the Church, with particular reference to its structures and use of resources, to increase the effectiveness of the Church’s ministry and witness. The Review Group’s members are prominent thinkers with a blend of experience in dealing with matters ecclesiastical and organisational: Lord Harries of Pentregarth, the former Bishop of Oxford; Professor Charles Handy, the eminent writer and adviser on business and organisational theory (and son of a Church of Ireland archdeacon); and Professor Patricia Peattie, former Convenor of the Scottish Episcopal Church’s Standing Committee and the first chairwoman of the Lothian University Hospitals NHS Trust. The aim was to commission a review that could move quickly to gather and assimilate information about the state of the Church in Wales, then provide independent advice on how the Church might reshape itself to be more effective in the twenty-first century. Given the extent of its members’ other commitments, the Review Group has pursued its task with extraordinary vigour and dedication. The Group determined its own approach and programme. It has visited every diocese in Wales, meeting with the Bishop and Diocesan team in each and holding an open meeting for Church members to express their views.

Annual Review - 1 - Editorial Board Oct 2010
Annual review - 1 - Editorial Board Oct 2010 Objectives and activities of the History of Parliament Trust The History of Parliament is a major academic project to create a scholarly reference work describing the members, constituencies and activities of the Parliament of England and the United Kingdom. The volumes either published or in preparation cover the House of Commons from 1386 to 1868 and the House of Lords from 1603 to 1832. They are widely regarded as an unparalleled source for British political, social and local history. The volumes consist of detailed studies of elections and electoral politics in each constituency, and of closely researched accounts of the lives of everyone who was elected to Parliament in the period, together with surveys drawing out the themes and discoveries of the research and adding information on the operation of Parliament as an institution. The History has published 21,420 biographies and 2,831 constituency surveys in ten sets of volumes (41 volumes in all). They deal with 1386-1421, 1509-1558, 1558-1603, 1604-29, 1660- 1690, 1690-1715, 1715-1754, 1754-1790, 1790-1820 and 1820-32. All of these articles are now available on www.historyofparliamentonline.org . The History’s staff of professional historians is currently researching the House of Commons in the periods 1422-1504, 1640-1660, and 1832- 1868, and the House of Lords in the periods 1603-60 and 1660-1832. The three Commons projects currently in progress will contain a further 7,251 biographies of members of the House of Commons and 861 constituency surveys. With what is now published and in progress, the History covers 414 years of the history of the House of Commons.

EDITION 17/2019 The Right Reverend June Osborne will be officiating at our Confirma- tion service on 15th September. We look forward to her ministry to us and we pray that we will be a blessing to her. She has been a ground-breaking figure in the Church of England, June Osborne was the first female Dean to be appointed to a medieval cathedral, having served as Salis- bury Cathedral’s Canon Treasurer for near- ly ten years. She was active in the national life of the Church of England, serving for many years on General Synod’s Standing Committee, including sitting on the Panel of Chairs. One of the first women to be ordained as a priest in England in 1994, having been a Deaconess since 1980 and Deacon since 1987, Bishop June’s ministry has been char- acterised by her passion for equality and diver- sity and she was a founder of the Church’s The Bishop of Llandaff Leading Women programme. A graduate in Social Sciences from Manchester University, Bishop June trained for ministry at St John’s College, Nottingham and Wycliffe Hall, Oxford. She was made a Deaconess in 1980 and served at St Martin-in-the-Bullring in Birmingham before moving to the Old Ford parishes in East London in 1984.

IN our last " annual" a very remarkable coin was described, one of about two hundred silver pennies which had been discovered in Wales, and strongly suspected, through fear of the un righteous and impolitic claims of the Crown, to have been consigned, as is too frequently the case, to the melting pot. Nothing more has been heard of this " find;" which, so fnr as we are aware, is now solely represented by the unique piece in the writer's collection, inscribed on either side to the redoubt able hero of antiquity, Julius Cccsar. The piece was esteemed a counterfeit sterling; and application to the best British numismatists failed to elicit any other appropriation of this acknowledged novelty. Mr. Samuel Smith, jun., having long directed especial attention to mediaeval coinages of the conti nent, was naturally attracted by the story of this singular penny, and after a personal inspection had assured him of the genuineness of the coin, and produced a simultaneous suspicion that it was of foreign rather than British origin, he entered upon a new line of investigation. The result of his research is curious, if not conclusive, in shewing its probable claim to be an esterliny of a continental sovereign, in place of a mere forgery of an English sterling. Mr. Smith remarks, " Ever since you were good enough to shew me the very " interesting sterling with the name of Julius Cresar,
