  • Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1St October - 31St December
    Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1st October - 31st December What is a Diocese and how do we work together within it? At its simplest, a Diocese is a geographical area; a region; a collection of parishes, benefices, deaneries, archdeaconries. But it is more than that – it is a gathering of all our communities in mutual support for each other. And as the Diocese of Winchester, we each play our part in the growth of God’s Kingdom committed to our vision of ‘living the mission of Jesus’. This prayer diary helps us to get to know each other better, to find out what is happening across the area and to see how God is working and using us all in his mission across the region. The early church shared good news of what was happening across a wide area, as churches grew, and more people came to know Christ. In their commitment to love and care for one another, prayer lay at the heart of their lives. As we use this Prayer Diary, let’s seek to share that love and care for each other and to rejoice in what God is doing amongst us. This month... how might you pray for young people? For example, you might focus on school leavers, students, youth workers, community centres, young people in trouble... How might you be part of the answer to your prayers? For example, you might make a point of smiling at young people in the street; volunteer for a helpline; get involved with your local Further Education College; support parents you know whose young adult children are struggling..

  • Alumni News 29
    NEWS ALUMNIDecember • Issue 29 - 2005 UNIVERSITY OF TASMANIA Delivering more than ever Providing mail room solutions for the University of Tasmania. Welcome to the 2005 end of year edition of Alumni News Australian universities are about the same size as a medieval city, a small town or a city suburb. They are mini-civilisations – small communities within a broader web. As the State of Tasmania’s only university, we at UTAS have always felt a strong sense of duty towards the community that we were born from. And as our State grows in both size and economic wealth, we too are growing. So is our economic contribution. We are planning for “20,000 by 2020” – around 20,000 full-time equivalent students by the year 2020. We are already the third largest non-government employer in the State, and 85 per cent of our budget remains here on the island. Our international students contribute around $50 million to the State’s thriving economy, and for every 100 new UTAS students around 26 Tasmanian jobs are created. As one of the top ten research universities in the country, it is gratifying to note that UTAS research and development makes up some 30 per cent of Tasmania’s innovation. Australia is becoming an increasingly challenging environment in which to run a university – both economically and ideologically – so we are delighted that the fiscal relationship we have with our State is a healthy one. But it is not, of course, the be-all and the end-all. We are in the business of creating human capital.

This column is being written on the day after Ash Most of the recently built Sydney Anglican Churches Wednesday. This year Ash Wednesday cannot but fit this pattern- they are plain and functional with help to remind us of the tragic Victorian bushfires minimal decoration and generally devoid of religious and the thousands of people who have been so deeply symbolism. They are places to meet with others and the affected by them. focus of attention is a stage with a podium and As Anglicans we are also aware of the two microphone. We no longer have services in such places, communities, Kinglake and Marysville that have seen we have meetings and the buildings express that their churches destroyed and many of their parishioners understanding. rendered homeless. I have to confess that my experience over twenty years of ordained ministry has changed my thinking on the value of the building and made me question the ‘rain shelter’ view. God clearly has a sense of humour for if you had told me at the age of 16 that 40 years later I would be the rector of an Anglican parish with two heritage church buildings complete with stained glass, crosses, candles and liturgical colours I would have been incredulous. So how should we regard our church buildings? To me they function somewhat like the sacraments. They are visible reminders of a spiritual reality, namely the gathered Christian community. For those on the outside, the Church building bears witness to the fact that the people who meet there take God seriously.

Because of that, we have B asked our Overseas Partners to supply us with prayer points that reflect the situation in their country. Included in this edition of Partners Praying Together are the prayer points that we have received. We have included these so that you can show prayerful concern for them as they, who like us are ‘wearied by the changes and chances of this fleeting world’ (as the prayer from Compline puts it), adjust to living in a time of global pandemic. You’ll also find the usual things we would normally have: the feasts and commemorations from the lectionary, the Australian Cycle of Prayer, and commemorations from the United Nations calendar. All the material is designed to inform your prayers for our Overseas Partners, the bishops and dioceses of our Church and for wider global concerns. With the Psalmist let us pray, ‘Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, Lord, and the lifting up of my hands as an evening sacrifice’ (141.2). 1. Who are ABM’s Overseas Partners? 2.
