ACCM AGENDA 200726 2 MINUTES OF THE HOLY TRINITY ANNUAL CHAPLAINCY MEETING, SUNDAY 28th APRIL 2019. 1. Father Peter called the meeting to order and led an opening prayer. 2. In his introductory remarks as Chairman, Father Peter informed every one of the need to collect copies (tabled) of the: 2019 Agenda, 2018 AGM Minutes, reports (Fr Peter’s, Churchwardens, Treasurer), Chaplaincy Council members list, and the Holy Trinity Church - Summary Accounts 2017-2018. 3. Apologies for absence were given for Teresa Banner, Roxanne Bethany, George Fortune, Richard Palmer, Mary Peres, Colin Peres. Twenty-six people were present for the meeting. 4. Minutes of the last General Meeting (22nd April 2018) were scrutinised and the Chair asked for any questions or objections concerning them. None was raised. Tony Feltham proposed acceptance of the minutes and Christine Harvey seconded this. They were unanimously accepted with no abstentions. 5. No matters arose from the minutes. 6. Jill Pirdas, Churchwarden, then reported on Electoral Roll changes since the last AGM. There are now 57 members on the roll compared with 68 in 2018. There are nine new members: Claire Allen, Tim Allen, Dami Coker, Maria Coker, Rita Donato, Shannon Simon, Claire Spencer, Robert Tonkiss and Robert Keen. However, many regular visitors have become ‘Friends’ rather than appearing as full members on the roll while others have transferred elsewhere. Listed Friends are: Weisa Cook, Fernand Dawe, Edgar Lefebvre, George & Pat Fortune, Irene Gordon, Alison Hall, George & Joy Kundhal, Karen Marginson, Jim & Mary McCall, Richard Palmer, Colin Perry, Ian & Alison Weir. Sadly, Jill also reported the death of Rosemary Warburton. 7. Fr Peter, now completing his fifth year at Holy Trinity, gave the Chaplain’s report. Many positives emerge concerning the life and support of the Holy Trinity community, connections with Vence and the wider church. 8. The Churchwardens’ reports on the proceedings of the Chaplaincy in general are covered in agenda items 6 and 9 respectively. 9. Michael Killbourn, Churchwarden, reported on the fabric, goods and ornaments of the church. Details of many items were provided including: renewal of Fr Peter’s contract for another 5 years, church insurance (lecterns, organ and stained glass windows), the 29 parking spaces, the return of the photocopier to Repro, other significant maintenance-service matters, future projects and outreach (locally and to India). 10. The Financial Statement of the Council for the year ending 2018 and the Auditors report were presented. The Auditor confirms the financial probity of Holy Trinity’s accounts. The discussion which followed highlighted the slightly improved finances this year compared with the recent past, as well as the on-going significant challenges of our financial condition. Renewal of Pierre-Roger Nataf’s (Expert-Comptable, Commissaire aux Comptes) contract was discussed. His re-appointment (proposer Gerard Jordan, seconder Geoff Treloar) was confirmed by a majority vote in favour with one abstention. 11. The renewal of adherence to diocesan Safeguarding Policy was highlighted by a proposal for acceptance made by Tony Feltham, seconded by Cynthia Adams. There was a majority in favour of accepting with one abstention. 3 12. Confirmation of the role of curate, Roxana Teleman was raised. Her 3 year clergy-trainee post at Holy Trinity will commence in July 2019. Richard Challoner proposed her acceptance, seconded by Carol Labrosse. She was unanimously accepted with no abstentions. 13. Outstanding election matters were discussed. Cynthia Adams was elected to the council (proposed Jill Pirdas, seconded Richard Challoner). Jill Pirdas was unanimously voted in to continue her tremendous work as a current Churchwarden (proposer Keith Paterson, seconder Gloria Weston). Michael Killbourn has submitted his resignation and needs to be replaced. Richard Challoner was proposed by Jill Pirdas (seconded by Michael Killbourn) to replace him, which was confirmed unanimously with no abstentions. The greatly appreciated work which Michael has undertaken in recent years on behalf of the church was acknowledged by all. He was presented by Jill with a gift from the community, and also one for his wife, Marie-Laure. 14. The proposed date for next year’s Annual Meeting is 26th April 2020. 15. In concluding Father Peter thanked everyone for their involvement and ended with a closing prayer. Following AGM, elected officers: President: The Reverend Peter Jackson Treasurer: M. Gerard Jordan Secretary: M. Robert Tonkiss Church wardens: Mme Jill Pirdas; M. Richard Challoner 4 ELECTORAL ROLL HOLY TRINITY CHURCH NICE 2020 There are 54 members on the Electoral Roll of Holy Trinity Church in 2020 compared to 56 in 2019. Three members have decided to be on the Friends of Holy Trinity List as they can rarely be present at the AGM. Two members have left Nice. We are happy to welcome three new members. Mrs Lora Bernabei Reynolds, Mrs Sara Brummer and Mrs Mary de Vachon. The list of members is posted on the church notice board. Jill Pirdas Electoral Roll Officer 5 Wardens' Report On Church Activities 2019-2020 The two table top sales in May and October of 2019 made a total of €5,963. There were three fund rasing lunches for the church (figures to come from Gerard) and two lunches in aid of children with HIV in India. There was a bring and share lunch in the Presbytery garden last June. At this point no outdoor lunches are envisaged, but that could change depending on circumstances. A tombola was held in aid of Andy and thanks to Roxanna, Andy was able to get his passport renewed in Paris. Gifts of food were taken to Fourneau Économique, who have been handing out food at the door, rather than serving meals. Thanks are due as always, to Jean Marie our organist and Tony Feltham our cantor. Many thanks as well to all those who help in so many ways on a voluntary basis, including of course, the coffee service on Sundays. These have been suspended for the time being, but one hopes, will resume in due course. Many thanks to Michael, whose ongoing work for Holy Trinity is invaluable and very much appreciated as always. We are grateful as well, to Karyn the florist for so kindly lending us flowers for the Sunday services. Fabric of the Church. The Insurance on the church's stained glass windows has been upgraded and paid in total, thus ensuring full coverage in case of any damage. It was considered wise to do this given the value and importance of the windows. In the summer of 2019, as all will be aware, a new television was installed in the Hall with the kind help of Kelly Acton, who also provided a security camera to watch over the television. Jill and her brother John removed a great quantity of bags, clothes and other detritus which had been dumped outside the Sacristy on the Buffa side of the church, so many thanks to them. Fortunately there have been few reoccurrences of this and measures are being taken to try to keep that whole area clean and tidy. In November 2019 the new windows were installed in the apartment above the Hall, thanks to Michael who oversaw the whole project. Our tenants are very pleased and of course, despite the financial outlay [see Treasurer's Report], it represents a good investment for the future. In December an architect, Mr Armisto, came to examine the Hall with Jill and said that the builiding was sound and well constructed. Again, as all will be aware, just before Christmas we received a donation of more than eighty chairs for the Hall from Michael Tschann, owner of the Hotel Splendid, for which we are all very grateful. 6 A letter of thanks was sent to Michael Tschann, as well as a gift of wine, arranged by Jill. The Harmonium at the back of the church, in the south west corner, has been removed and recycled with Michael's invaluable help, saving the €480 that we were quoted for its removal. The south west corner of the church has been reorganised to better effect. We have begun to put in place wire mesh along the railings on Rue de la Buffa, the purpose of which is to prevent people from throwing bottles, cans and other detritus onto the church grounds. This will be completed once the current crisis is over. In February the trees in the Presbytery garden were pruned and the contractors did an excellent job. Anthony, the gardener, has begun removing the boxwood bushes from the cemetery garden and already the effect is to make the garden look more spacious an attractive.

This issue includes five articles, related to both history and literature, examining life, death, power, and love in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. First, Tera Pate, who just graduated with a B.A. in English discusses the use of the word “crown” in Shakespeare’s Richard III and I Henry IV. Second, Lauren Harmon, a rising sophomore in History, compares the power of two queens (Eleanor of Aquitaine and Matilda of Scotland) using letters to and from powerful religious men. Third, Morrigan Hollis, a rising junior in English and History, argues that despite Guinevere’s bad reputation in modern culture, her role in Le Morte d’Arthur showed power and agency.

RECUSANT LITERATURE Description of USF collections by and about Catholics in England during the period of the Penal Laws, beginning with the the accession of Elizabeth I in 1558 and continuing until the Catholic Relief Act of 1791, with special emphasis on the Jesuit presence throughout these two centuries of religious and political conflict. Introduction The unpopular English Catholic Queen, Mary Tudor died in 1558 after a brief reign during which she earned the epithet ‘Bloody Mary’ for her persecution of Protestants. Mary’s Protestant younger sister succeeded her as Queen Elizabeth I. In 1559, during the first year of Elizabeth’s reign, Parliament passed the Act of Uniformity, declaring the state-run Church of England as the only legitimate religious authority, and compulsory for all citizens.

  • Challenge and Promise: Apostolicity and the Methodist Vocation to ‘Serve the Present Age’
    Challenge and Promise: Apostolicity and the Methodist Vocation to ‘Serve the Present Age’ Douglas M. Koskela Seattle Pacific University Among the more infamous pieces in the corpus of Charles Wesley’s verse is the “Epigram” he penned in response to his brother’s decision to preside at ministerial ordinations in 1784. In particular, when John Wesley “set apart” Thomas Coke as superintendent for Methodists in America, Charles articulated a sharp response: So easily are Bishops made By man’s, or woman’s whim? W____ his hands on C____ hath laid, but who laid hands on Him? Hands on himself he laid, and took An Apostolic Chair: And then ordain’d his Creature C____ His Heir and Successor.1 Charles’ thinly-veiled invective serves to illustrate the ecclesiological ambiguity of the Methodist movement as it developed gradually and perhaps hesitantly into a church. A central concern of Charles’ in the Epigram is apostolicity, one of the nota ecclesiae in the Creed of Nicea-Constantinople. As with many ecclesiological categories, the notion of apostolicity has proven to be rather complex in the Methodist tradition. In this, of course, Methodists are not alone. The concept of “apostolicity” was forged in a context of theological controversy.2 Long after those particular controversies have dissipated, and with the 1 Charles Wesley, Representative Verse, edited by Frank Baker (New York: Abingdon, 1963), p. 368. 2 Jaroslav Pelikan demonstrates how, in various ways, the Marcionite, Gnostic, and Montanist controversies all engaged the question of apostolic continuity. In the process of responding to these movements, the church catholic forged its main criteria for apostolic continuity.

  • CHALLONER Update
    CHALLONER update Challoner Update 678 @Challoner_head 4th May 2018 From the Headteacher…... Today is a very special day for the school. Sixty eight years ago Bishop Challoner was founded. Bishop Challoner was founded in 1950 by Father Patrick Byrne, Parish Priest of St. Edmund’s in Beckenham in co-operation with St Joseph’s Parish in Bromley. Our school building is housed in the oldest building in Shortlands erected in 1702 and used to be known as Shortlands House. Shortlands house was believed to be a private hotel or refreshment house apparently famed for its ginger puddings. The school takes its name from Bishop Richard Challoner. He was Bishop of Debra, Vicar Apostolic of the London District and you will notice the plaque on the right of the door at the main entrance. He was a leading figure in the Roman Catholic Church in England during the 18th century. Richard Challoner was renowned for his courage and perseverance in difficult times. He died in 1781 and is buried in Westminster Abbey. Father Steve led our Mass this morning followed by the singing of Happy Birthday. Maddison, one of our nursery children and Helena a sixth form student, blew out the candles, followed by the cutting of the cake. The Junior children congregated on the lawn and then the older Junior pupils handed the younger Junior children a balloon with a message tied to it of either ‘peace’, ‘hope’, ‘love’ or ‘faith’ for them to take home. We hope that all the pupils enjoyed their treats at the end of the school day to mark the occasion.

Elizabeth Ann Bayley was born in New York on 28 August 1774. She was the second daughter of Doctor Richard Bayley and Catherine Charlton Bayley. She was of French and English ancestry. Her father was born in Fairfield, Connecticut, and her mother in Staten Island, New York. Her religious ancestry was staunchly Protestant. She could claim two of the original Huguenot settlers in New York among her ances- tors and her mother's father was the long-time rector of Saint Andrew's Anglican Church on Staten Island.' Though no baptismal records for Elizabeth have ever been found, we can say with confidence that she was baptized into the Anglican Church as an infant or small child.2 Elizabeth's mother died in 1777, leaving Doctor Bayley with three small girls.

  • Maryland Historical Magazine, 2003, Volume 98, Issue No. 1
    "The Papists... have shewn a laudable Care and Concern": Catholicism, Anglicanism, and Slave Religion in Colonial Maryland BEATRIZ BETANCOURT HARDY In the early 1750s, a slave named Richard fell ill at the plantation of his master Thomas Reader in St. Mary's County, Maryland. As Richard's condition worsened, the worried owner asked if he should send for an Anglican clergy- man. Reader, who was a vestryman of All Faith Parish, had instructed his slaves in the Anglican faith and had taken for granted that his slaves were Anglican. Con- sequently, he was stunned when Richard refused the offer of Anglican assistance and instead requested that his master send for a Catholic priest. In spite of Reader's opposition, word of Richard's request reached the local Jesuit priest, possibly through the Catholic overseer who worked on Reader's plantation. The priest could have been excused for ignoring this request from the slave of a well-placed Anglican. Since 1751 an anti-Catholic and anti-proprietary faction in the Lower House of Assembly had been seizing every opportunity to stir up trouble for Catholics. This faction hoped to dispossess wealthy Catholic landowners while also weakening the proprietary government that traditionally protected them. Rising tensions on the colonial frontier between the British and French govern- ments added to the woes of Maryland Catholics, whose loyalties consistently came under scrutiny in times of conflict with Catholic France. Despite these unfavor- able circumstances, the priest wrote to Reader and asked his permission to visit Richard, who "desires my Assistance to prepare him for his last End." Reader's reply is not recorded, but it seems unlikely that he allowed the Jesuit to minister to the dying bondsman.
