The Institution and Welcoming of The Reverend Hugh Bowron as Vicar of the Parish of St. Peter’s, Caversham by The Right Reverend Kelvin Wright Bishop of Dunedin On the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord in the Temple. The Church of St Peter, Caversham, Thursday, February 2, 2012, 7pm. Processional Hymn: Of the Father's heart begotten, Ere the world from chaos rose, He is Alpha, from that Fountain All that is and has been flows; He is Omega, of all things, Yet to come the distant Close, Evermore and evermore for ever. By His word was all created He commanded and 'twas done; Earth and sky and boundless ocean, Universe of three in one, All that sees the moon's soft radiance, All that breathes beneath the sun, Evermore and evermore. He assumed this mortal body, Frail and feeble, doomed to die, That the race from dust created, Might not perish utterly, Which the dreadful Law had sentenced In the depths of hell to lie, Evermore and evermore. O how blest that wondrous birthday, When the Maid the curse retrieved, Brought to birth mankind's salvation By the Holy Ghost conceived, And the Babe, the world's Redeemer In her loving arms received, Evermore and evermore. Sing, ye heights of heaven, his praises; Angels and Archangels, sing! Wheresoe’er ye be, ye faithful, Let your joyous anthems ring, Every tongue his name confessing, Countless voices answering, Evermore and evermore. Words: Corde Natus - Prudentius (trans. R.F.

  • Section 1 for Use Each Sunday Throughout the Year
    DIOCESE OF CHRISTCHURCH CYCLE OF PRAYER 2016 Section 1 For use each Sunday throughout the year Section 2 For daily use throughout each month From Bishop Victoria Dear Friends, Prayer is central to all we do as the Body of Christ and I cannot stress enough how grateful I am for those who hold my ministry and the life of the Diocese in prayer before the throne of grace. As we progress through 2016 I ask particularly that we continue to pray for the thousands of refugees crossing the world in search of a safe home; that we commit to prayer and action climate change; and that the life of the Anglican Communion, especially Archbishop Justin, be upheld in our regular intercessions. This year our Province will see a General Synod in May and much prayer is needed for that gathering, again remembering especially Archbishop Philip; Archbishop Brown and Archbishop Winston. In this Diocese I hope we will resolve the matter of the Cathedral in the Square in 2016 about which we are already committed to praying for, at noon, daily. One last suggestion: the clergy of our beloved Diocese have committed to praying each day the morning office from “A New Zealand Prayer Book/ He Karakia Mihinare o Aotearoa”. Why not ask your parish priest if you can either join her or him daily for this act of prayer or seek out others who could come together with you to read the Scriptures in accordance with the Lectionary 2016 and to pray morning-prayer together. A number of us do exactly that, weekdays at St Peter’s, Upper Riccarton at 8.30 am.
