Amen. ¶ The People sit The Ministry of the Word A reading from the Book of Habakkuk. “Alas for you who get evil gain for your houses, setting your nest on high to be safe from the reach of harm!” You have devised shame for your house by cutting off many peoples; you have forfeited your life. The very stones will cry out from the wall, and the plaster will respond from the woodwork. Alas for you who build a town by bloodshed, and found a city on iniquity!” Is it not from the Lord of hosts that peoples labour only to feed the flames, and nations weary themselves for nothing? But the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. Habakkuk 2:9–14 NRSV The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. 6 The Gradual ¶ The choir sings the following refrain, then all repeat O Lord, your love en - dures for - ev - er: do not a - ban - don the works of your hands. I will give thanks to you, O Lord, with my whole heart; before the gods I will sing your praise. I will bow down toward your holy temple and praise your Name, because of your love and faithfulness; For you have glorified your Name and your word above all things.

  • Lay-Chaplain's Report. Twitter
    Lay-Chaplain’s Report. Twitter: @CchaplainNc End of Term: What a busy end to the last academic year, my first year at Newman. The decision to celebrate the 60th Anniversary in the Westminster Cathedral was being discussed. It was decided that Blessed John Henry Newman’s Feast day would be the appropriate day – Newman Day. After discussions with the Cathedral’s Precentor (Fr Andrew Gallagher) it was decided that the 10th of October would be the next possible day. It was then the work of finding a cardinal or a bishop to celebrate the Mass. A Mass that the entire college including staff past and present. The invites were printed and dispatched to all in various modes of delivery. It was felt that celebrating the 60th anniversary of the college (both as Hinsley and now as Newman) would be a time to praise God for all the pupils and all staff that have and are making a Catholic presence in Harlesden. The Right Rev Bishop John Wilson (Aux Bishop of Westminster) agreed to lead the celebration of the Mass at 14:15 on 10/10/2018. We had a celebrant, a place, now the organising upped the pace. New Bench: To mark the anniversary it was decided to commission the wooden bench with the college’s logo and the dates 1958-2018 carved into it. I found a company that would be able to make something different, something special to mark this milestone in the life of the school. Once the new bench arrived it was being used. Placed before the entrance, parents and school visitors as well as pupils and staff sat and used it.

  • The Ordained Christian Ministry from the Patristic Era to the Late Middle Ages
    47 H. Econe Porter CHURCH AND MINISTRY FROM HIPPOLYTUS TO THE CONCILIARISTS The Ordained Christian Ministry from the Patristic Era to the Late Middle Ages From the age of the church fathers through the late middle ages represents nearly three quarters of Christian history. with all that this involves. Nonetheless. I have been asked to survey what I know about the ordained leadership of the Christian church during this long period. Obviously. much must be omitted. I will endeavor at least to touch on matt~rs which interest me and which I hope will interest you. I. Summary of Patristic System Let us first summarize and recall the system which had been in effect in all catholic or orthodox Christian communities. so far as we know, at least since the beginning of the third century. This system is described in the Apostolic Tradition of HippoZytus and other church orders. and is alluded to in the writings of St. Cyprian and many other church fathers. 1 In each city where there was a Christian community. it was presided over by a bishop. In all the larger places this was a full time occupation and the bishop was supported by the church, unless he was a lando~~:ner or man of means. as a few were. He might be celibate, or a widower, or the husband of one wife, as in I Timothy 3:2. The Reverend Dr. H. Boone Porter is editor of The Living Church. 48 The bishop supervised and directed the church in conjunction with a council or assembly of presbyters or elders.
