It is perfectly possible for Christian them, almost exactly thirty years ago. It was in the people to hold very different opinions about issues such I study of the then Bishop of Edmonton, the Rt Rev’d as gay marriage and women bishops; once we accept Bill Westwood, who was interviewing me to see whether he that the area of complete certainty and unanimity is would allow me to serve my curacy at Enfield Parish restricted to a relatively small circle of central doc- Church.

Plenty of people have prophesied the decline and fall of an institution that seems to be losing the bat- Although I think at the time I rather brushed them aside, the tle against secularism, and whose members seem to be Bishop’s words were prophetic, at least in so far as how declining in numbers in many part so the country things have turned out with me. Perhaps my time amongst (although not in London). My response is a simple one: the intelligentsia of Highgate (which now represents well When did the Lord ever tell us that his disciples would over half of my ministry) has played a part in this, but I have become a majority? (He didn’t: Mt 7:14.) Was there to say that while my conviction of the truth of the central ever a time when there weren’t vehement disagree- claims of the New Testament about God’s nature and his ments in the life of the Church?

This has been my starting point in reacting both to the Gen- So at the beginning of a new year, a reminder that divi- eral Synod’s failure to pass the motion about women bishops sion and weakness in the church is no reason whatsoever by a sufficient majority, and to the distress this has caused to for a Christian to lose heart. members of both of our congregations. It is well known Jonathan Trigg that some Anglicans would refuse to support any change for which the full authority of the Church Catholic (i.e. of Rome) has been given. It is equally well known that others would want to find a mandate in Holy Scripture for every decision on this and other contested issues. The difficulty is that perhaps Scripture was never meant to be a text book to give answers on every issue; rather its purpose as a Christian sees it is to bear witness to God revealed in Jesus Christ. If there are no hard and fast ways of arriving at a clear verdict on the rightness or wrongness of a decision we have the dis- comfort—and challenge—of seeking a way forward where certainty and knockdown proofs aren’t available. From this point of view, disagreements in the life of the church should not surprise us, even though some of them SERVICES AT ST MICHAEL’S Services are modern language (Common Worship) except where indicated as BCP (Book of Common Prayer).

  • JULY 2021 [email protected] a MESSAGE from DAVID
    Edition 267 “The Church in the Park – Growing in Faith, Hope and Love” JULY 2021 [email protected] A MESSAGE FROM DAVID Hello everybody, On 13.6.21, we announced the great news that Jane Burns is to be licensed to our two parishes in the autumn. Jane is currently curate at Finedon but lives in St Peter & St Paul Parish and was very much involved in it before her ordination. Jane is a 'Minister in Secular Employment': she has a full-time job elsewhere but is also engaged in parish ministry. Her new role will be rather unusual: she will be offering help to parishes in the Kettering Deanery in need of support. But her base will be our two parishes and she will be with us at least one Sunday a month. Jane will be licensed by Bishop John at All Saints Church on 31 October. We're delighted about this news. (See also David’s article on Confirmation later in the magazine) A MESSAGE FROM FR BRIAN My journey to ordination began one day in August, 1977, just a few days before my 40th birthday, when my late wife Hazel asked the question “Had I thought of going into the church?” It had been on my mind for a while but it was good to know that my family, including our daughters Zaneta and Andrea, would be supportive for what could be a difficult and uncertain period. At the time I was churchwarden at the parish of St. Peter, Calow near Chesterfield. There was an interregnum so I could not discuss this matter with my incumbent which is usually the first step.

    MFRFM Movement for a Register of Freemasons 10.7.06 The Very Revd The Dean, Dear Dean, Following my Submission to Members of the General Synod, I learn that Wells Cathedral (complete with its own in-house Lodge Room) held a Freemasons’ Service in the Cathedral on 4.6.06 and am aware of some other Cathedrals that have links with the Freemasons. My research depends on accuracy and I would be glad if you could let me know: 1. Has your Cathedral held any Service to which the Freemasons, or members of a particular Lodge of Freemasons, have been invited or which they attend by custom, in the past two years? 2. Does your Cathedral receive Masonic Choral Bursaries? The courteous response that I have received in recent months from within the CofE has been appreciated. I trust that you will, in like spirit, help me with this part of my research. Every good wish, Yours sincerely, The Masonic Antient Charges state that “you are .. to prefer a poor Brother, that is a good man and true BEFORE any other poor People in the same Circumstance.” This obligation binds all Freemasons - including clergy, lawyers and public servants - of every degree.
