In general, the Church is best perceived as neutral in terms of party politics. Just as MPs and councillors are bound to work and care for all their constituents or local residents, so the clergy of the Church of England have a responsibility for all their parishioners, whatever their race or gender, whatever their political or religious affiliation. We meet many different people when we mark life’s milestones with the Church’s rites of Baptism and Marriage, and of course with Funerals. In July, I had the special privilege of officiating at the wedding of our son, Peter, and his bride Sarah, whose home church happens to be Bridlington Priory. Not many people know the East Coast resort has such a building; it is the same length as our Cathedral, but is loftier inside, and before the Reformation was twice the size, being the second-biggest church in Yorkshire. It also has a wonderful organ, and Alison and I knew the organist forty years ago, when we were all students in Oxford. The weather also helped to make it a memorable and enjoyable day. Talking of the Reformation, this year is being celebrated as ‘Reformation 500’, as it was on 31st Oct, 1517, that Martin Luther challenged the system of ‘papal indulgences’, by which, it was claimed, people could buy forgiveness for sins. At St James’ we always participate in the Heritage open days in September, so this year the talk on the Saturday afternoon will be entitled: ‘What did the Reformers ever do for us?’ I shall try to demonstrate the changes which were brought about from the mid-sixteenth century onwards, both within a church like ours, and in the parish of Norton as a whole; changes that would lead to a different idea of faith and new opportunities for industry, but also to a terrible Civil War. Meanwhile, enjoy the summer, which has been very pleasant so far. As well as the Holiday Club being organised by our friends at Meadowhead Christian Fellowship, I hope parents will note that on August 1st, St James’ will be hosting a ‘Wild Craft Day’: even if it’s just beetles, not tigers, it should be fun! Yours in Christ, Geoffrey 3 From the Registers HOLY BAPTISM May 14th Iris Laila Eveline, daughter of Mark Andrew & Sarah Lynette WOOLHOUSE. 21st Abel Lee CULLEN, son of Mark Patrick Cullen & Victoria Joanne Lee.

This makes them extremely vulnerable to infection by parasites, such as hookworm; while injuries to the feet and ankles can lead to ulcers and other conditions which are almost always left untreated. Without shoes, many children are not permitted to attend school. Sal's Shoes is a charity who makes sure that your used, loved (and probably barely worn) outgrown children's shoes are delivered straight from you to those in need. The Chantrey Centre has been a collection point for donations over the Summer Term, and so far has collected over 75 pairs – well done you! However, in order to collect the shoes and send them on to a new home, it costs the charity around £1 per pair. With this in mind, we have set a fundraising target and would welcome any donations. You can donate here: https://mydonate.bt.com/fundraisers/katherinewalker1, where you can also gift aid, or in person to me! In addition, we will be holding a Coffee Morning on October 14th 10-11:30 in Church and would love to see you there. Katie Walker Children's 'Wild Craft' An activity session in the Church and Church Yard on the 1st August 11 am - 2 pm. Activities using the space around Church to investigate the wildlife there, and related craft activities in/outside of Church, depending on the weather! This is a free event, but donations are welcome. There will be refreshments for sale, but feel free to bring your sandwiches and have a picnic lunch! You do not need to book, but it would help us gauge numbers if you could show you're coming on our Facebook event. 5 A New Bishop for Sheffield On Thursday 22 June, Pete Wilcox, the Former Dean of Liverpool, was consecrated to serve as the eighth Bishop of Sheffield by the Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu. Bishop Pete will now pay homage to the Queen, acknowledging her as Sovereign and Supreme Governor, during a brief private ceremony at Buckingham Palace over the summer. He will be installed as Bishop of Sheffield at a service due to take place in September 2017 at Sheffield Cathedral. He will then fully start his ministry in the diocese. The Very Reverend Dr Pete Wilcox has been ordained for 30 years and has been Dean of Liverpool since 2012. Between August 2006 and July 2012 he was Canon Chancellor at Lichfield Cathedral, a post which involved oversight of the Cathedral’s work in education and outreach. He is married to the novelist, Catherine Fox and they have two adult sons. Pete is a fan of all ball sports, and follows the fortunes of Newcastle United especially closely. He is the author of three books: Living the Dream (2007), Walking the Walk (2009) and Talking the Talk (2011).

The aims are to support volunteers with moderate Learning Difficulties (including people with Down’s Syndrome and Autistic Spectrum Disorder) in small groups to ‘learn new skills in a real work environment to gain valuable work experience’. They are able to not only learn from the accumulated knowledge and skills of the other growers, but also share tools and other equipment and the odd cup of tea, too. Matt, nearly 17, the supported volunteer I met and who showed me around the site, said he enjoyed ‘the chilled and relaxed’ environment, which produced laughter from other workers who had shown 200 people around the previous day – a hot and humid Sunday – on their ‘Open Day’! Matt has worked there on alternate Mondays since November 2016 – when he was just in time to help harvest the last of the apple crop which was pressed to produce organic apple juice - each of the 400 bottles contains 1.5 Kilos of apples.

  • Sheffield Cathedral: Chapel Lighting (1 of 2 Projects Funded) Awarded £65,077 in March 2015
    Sheffield Cathedral: Chapel Lighting (1 of 2 projects funded) Awarded £65,077 in March 2015 The need The lighting and wiring in two chapels, the All Saints Chapel and the Chapel of the Holy Spirit (crypt chapel) had become unreliable, making them difficult to use for services and occasionally dangerous for visitors to enter. Components could no longer be obtained for the existing systems, which were in urgent need of attention: many fittings had failed through overheating or through faulty wiring. The crypt chapel was created in the 1930s as a First World War memorial, and the Dean observed It is quite distressing at times that elderly mourners feel anxious about entering the chapel because it is so poorly lit. Outcomes Now the lighting requires routine maintenance only. The All Saints Chapel is now a fitting memorial to those interred there from the York and Lancaster Regiment. Economic and social impact A local electrical contractor was used for the work. The spaces are once again safe and open, and can reliably be used for interment services. They are also being Lack of lighting in the crypt chapel before the work. regularly used by staff and clients from the Archer Photo credit: Thomas Ford Architects. Project, a provision within the cathedral complex for the homeless and vulnerable, for their weekly prayers.

  • City of Sheffield Teachers' Choir
    2 | David Clover Competion for Singers CITY OF SHEFFIELD TEACHERS’ CHOIR The City of Sheffield Teachers’ Choir was formed on Thursday, 7 November, 1968 by Sheffield’s then Music Adviser, Dr. David Clover. It was a direct result of the daily choral sessions of his initial residential music course held at the Hayes Conference Centre, Swanwick. This was the first time that Sheffield music teachers had ever come together in this way and it was a historic occasion for Sheffield music. The choir’s first performance was the Festival of Lessons and Carols in Sheffield Cathedral during Christmastide 1968. For eleven years the choir flourished under David Clover’s baton, raising much money for children’s charities, both local and national, and giving opportunities for those connected, at that time, with the education service in Sheffield to come together and sing for the sheer joy of singing. Since his death in January 1979 the choir has continued to perform both at home and abroad. It celebrated its fortieth anniversary in 2008 with a concert at St. John’s Church, Ranmoor, on Friday 7 November. The repertoire is wide. Over the years performances have included Mozart’s Requiem, Dvorak’s Mass in D, Vivaldi’s Gloria, Bach’s Magnificat, Haydn’s Nelson, Harmoniemesse and Maria Theresa Masses, sacred music by various composers, church services, Stainer’s Crucifixion, Maunder’s Olivet to Calvary, William Lloyd Webber’s The Saviour and The Divine Compassion, concert versions of Gilbert and Sulivan operettas, opera choruses, part songs, spirtuals, folk songs and songs from the shows, as well as Festivals of Lessons and Carols.

There is some ethnic diversity, with Muslims of Pakistani origin being the largest minority. The different parts of the city tend to see themselves as villages, and the topography encourages this - Sheffield is built on seven hills (so they say).

  • SLI 22 Title: Beet Lantern Slide Collection
    University of Sheffield Library. Special Collections and Archives Ref: SLI 22 Title: Beet Lantern Slide Collection Scope: A collection of just under 2,500 lantern slides collected by Arthur Edgar Beet, an academic in the Applied Science Department at the University of Sheffield in the first half of the 20th century. Dates: Late 19th and early 20th century Level: Fonds Extent: c.2,500 slides Name of Creator: Arthur Edgar Beet Administrative/biographical history: This collection consists of just under 2,500 magic lantern slides covering a wide variety of subjects, including photographs of late 19th century Sheffield, illustrations of scenes from children’s tales and Bible stories, images of the Boer War and the First World War, portraits of important historical figures, and photographs of London and European cities. The majority of the slides are standard UK lantern slides 3¼ inches square, but there are also a wide range of panorama slides, single slipper slides, double slipper slides, glass pivot slides, rackwork slides and rare and unique homemade glass slides. Arthur Edgar Beet was a lecturer in fuel technology at the University of Sheffield in the first half of the twentieth century. He was an amateur local historian who developed an interest in collecting lantern slides and projection equipment: a large addition to his collection was made in 1954 by John Arthur Southern, who bequeathed to Beet his own collection of 800 slides and a late 19th century projector. On Beet’s death in 1968, his son, A.D.H. Beet offered to donate the collection of slides to the University of Sheffield.
