Parish Profile Wolvey The United Benefice of Wolvey, Copston Magna and Withybrook Parish Profile 2016 Page 1 of 15 BISHOP’S INTRODUCTION Wolvey is a lovely village in the north of Warwickshire, within easy travelling distance of the M6, M1 and M69 motorway systems. It is also very close to some nationally known Carp fishing lakes! The fishing analogy might be useful for this part-time role however, as the post provides an excellent opportunity to ‘fish’ spiritually in one major lake and two smaller lakes – the village of Wolvey and the two smaller villages of Copston Magna and Withybrook. The villages would benefit from a priest who will lovingly help the congregations begin the processes of change towards becoming inwardly and spiritually healthier, and also more outward-looking and growth oriented. The post has the advantage of Wolvey being a reasonably self-contained village with a Church of England school, so there are very positive opportunities for village ministry without having an unsustainable number of parishes to look after as well. We are being flexible with this post and look forward to applications from priests seeking a House for Duty, Self-supporting, or half-time post. I commend the post to you. With my prayers Page 2 of 15 DEANERY INTRODUCTION Nuneaton Deanery has one of the largest populations in the Church of England, and is also one of the largest for numbers of clergy, although we currently have a lot of vacant posts, mainly due to clergy retirements. It is also one of the poorer areas of Warwickshire and Coventry Diocese, and has often felt under-resourced considering the demographics of the area. The Deanery Chapter has a mixture of stipendiary, self-supporting and retired clergy, from a range of traditions, including evangelical, liberal Catholic, and Resolution C, with the majority being evangelical. We support each other by meeting for prayer and discussion, and sharing lunch together, taking turns to host our colleagues. We have an interesting mix of rural and suburban churches and we endeavour to support each other as much as we can. The Deanery is currently subsidised financially to the level of about 2.3 full-time posts by other Deaneries in the Diocese, but we are starting to take up the challenge of supporting each other rather than relying on financial help from outside. Rather than simply cut back on posts, however, we are strategically looking at opportunities for considerable growth, and we think that these parishes, especially St John the Baptist, Wolvey, have the potential for considerable growth and influence. We are therefore looking for a new vicar to help the parishes grow spiritually, numerically, and financially. The congregations have expressed a willingness to change and become more mission-focussed. Wolvey have plans to start a Messy Church in the autumn and there are potential areas for growth with links to the school and the Army Barracks. We look forward to welcoming the new vicar to the Wolvey Group and Nuneaton Deanery! Frank Seldon Area Dean Page 3 of 15 BACKGROUND TO POST Wolvey, Copston Magna and Withybrook are 3 small villages in North East Warwickshire in the Midlands. They lie close to the Midland motorway network, and for those interested in fishing, there are a number of excellent carp fishing lakes within the parish. The group used to be 4 villages, but one village Burton Hastings has now been linked with Bulkington. The largest village in the group is Wolvey, which is where the vicarage is located. The parishes have had a full-time stipendiary post for many years, subsidised by the Deanery and wider diocese. This level of resource for such small villages and small congregations, in what are comparatively wealthy areas compared to the rest of the deanery, is unsustainable. The post has therefore become a House for Duty, Self- supporting or 0.5 stipendiary post. The congregations have been fairly central in a Eucharistic tradition, but have been rather inward looking. They will need gently discipling into fuller expressions of Christian faith and mission in their particular rural context. Page 4 of 15 ROLE SPECIFICATION The role of the next vicar of the Wolvey group will be to deliver the Diocesan Mission Purpose of: Worshipping God Making New Disciples Transforming Communities. S/he will achieve this by developing the 8 Essential Qualities in the lives of the congregations: Empowering Leadership Gift-oriented Ministry Passionate Spirituality Inspiring Worship Holistic Small Groups Need-oriented Outreach Loving Relationships Functional Structures Further information on these qualities can be found at http://www.dioceseofcoventry.org/healthychurches PERSON SPECIFICATION We would welcome candidates who: Have an authentic and infectious love of Jesus and the Bible, and can help us catch this love too, and become more confident in building, expressing and sharing our faith in a rural context. Are able to identify leadership and other gifts in people, and train and develop people for all areas of Christian ministry. Can gently help us face and address the realities of necessary change for growth, including structurally and in worship, aware of the attachments people have to the present way of doing things. Have a track record in the development of small groups (preferably in a rural context). Page 5 of 15 THE CHURCHES AND THE 8 ESSENTIAL QUALITIES In order to assess where the Churches are in relation to the Natural Church Development (NCD) eight essential qualities for Healthy Growing Churches, each congregation conducted their own survey in the spring/summer of 2015. The following paragraphs are based on those results. Empowering Leadership There is a good sense of collaboration across all 3 churches, and the congregations appear to be happy with the level of lay leadership in the churches, including leading services, preaching, leading intercessions, fund raising, management of the Millennium Building, building and church yard maintenance, production and distribution of Church Magazine, choir, Lent and Advent Courses, and Confirmation preparation. However, across all 3 parishes there were identified weaknesses in our leaders not being concerned for those who did not know Jesus Christ, and worryingly low scores related to the lack of expectation in our leaders for growth. We therefore believe it to be imperative that our next vicar has a deep concern for helping people access Christian faith, and raising expectations and the reality of growth within our churches. Gift Based Ministry In Wolvey and Withybrook people seem to enjoy the tasks that they do in the Church and feel their tasks are a positive challenge to their faith. There are a number of groups that carry out these tasks (cleaning, flower arranging, choir, sacristry, serving at the altar, eucharistic ministry, church and church-yard maintenance, and fund- raising). They feel that God is using them, that they have had training for their tasks (though less so in Withybrook), feel supported and they experience the benefits of working in a team. However whilst people know what their gifts are they feel that the church does not always provide tasks that match those gifts. In Copston Magna, whilst people know what value their work brings to the church and that the church helps them to discover their gifts, people didn’t feel that their tasks in the church stretched their faith and this question even produced a negative result (very rare!). It appears they do not enjoy the tasks that they carry out either. As with the Empowering Leadership quality, most of people’s time, gifts and energies are spent within, rather than outside, the church. Page 6 of 15 Passionate Spirituality The NCD surveys present clear contrasts in the levels of spirituality across the benefice. In Wolvey people are enthusiastic about their church, and find times of prayer an inspiring experience for them; people experience the transforming influences of their faith on their lives and are willing to share with others the times when they have experienced something from God. At Copston Magna and Withybrook scores were generally low. The highest scores were relating to people’s enthusiasm for their local church, but otherwise the results indicate perhaps a lack of genuine enthusiasm in relation to faith itself. Copston achieved another negative score in relation to people believing that God will work even more powerfully in the church in coming years. This effectively means the congregation are expecting the church to decline. These churches have small congregations which may have influenced the results but clearly there is work to do here in helping people engage with the realities and vitality of Christian faith. Across all churches there are low scores in relation to enjoying reading the Bible on our own and the influence of the Bible in our everyday lives. We would welcome a vicar with an infectious Christian faith, who loves Jesus and the Bible, and who can help us catch this love too. Inspiring Worship At Wolvey and Withybrook people appear to enjoy and benefit from the worship, though the existing patterns of worship do not seem to attract un-churched visitors. The music at Wolvey is positive, with a very good organist and a small robed adult choir (mainly ladies and one man). People look forward to attending the worship, they listen to the sermons, they connect with God and feel that the worship has a positive influence on them. They say attending worship is an inspiring influence on them, and can explain why they come, and are also ready to participate in the service. At Copston Magna the scores followed a roughly similar pattern to those at Wolvey but a few low scores are of more concern. People cannot explain why they come to a service, the music for many does not help them to worship God (also true for Withybrook), for some attending worship is not an inspiring experience, and people do not seem to look forward to attending the services.

  • REVEL BENEFICE Passionate About Sharing God’S Love with the Whole Community
    REVEL BENEFICE Passionate about sharing God’s love with the whole community Page 1 of 32 BISHOP’S INTRODUCTION There has been a willingness and commitment of the parishes within the Revel Benefice to re- think how mission and ministry might look in their rural context. A few years ago, I challenged them to do some work on what the future shape of their ministry might look like. To their great credit they have taken up the challenge and responded very well. The Parish Profile reflects how far their thinking has come, along with changes in structure they have already made. They have engaged healthily with the 8 Essential Qualities, which they have undertaken as a whole benefice. This has enabled their journey of growing as a mission shaped church to continue. A growth in shared ministry, lay leadership and working together has continued to bear fruit through Messy church, and a growing relationship with schools, has enabled the mission and ministry to continue even with the challenges posed by illness and early retirement of the previous incumbent. The Revel journey draws on a spiritual heritage I found very inspiring when arriving in Coventry Diocese. It can be read in a little but influential book by Stephen Verney called, ‘Fire in Coventry’, and describes how the Spirit moved in the hearts of people in Monks Kirby and the spiritual awakening across the Diocese that happened as a result. My hope and prayer is that this benefice may once again be a place of influential spiritual momentum. This heritage in the spiritual dynamic of laity, has given energy to new forms of mission and ministry in a rural context.

  • Prayer Diary Every Supporting Ligament, Grows and Builds Itself up in Love, As Each Part Does Its Work
    Spiritual Formation Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by Prayer Diary every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. Ephesians 4:15-16 June 2017 Have you been to the gym recently? Or out for a very good meal? As a society, we spend a lot of time thinking about outward appearances and how to maintain a healthy diet. But do we spend anywhere near as much time thinking about how we nurture our souls? Church as a ‘contact sport’ Over the last few weeks I’ve found myself reflecting at There is a rich vein of two thousand years of Christian teaching and wisdom which can help Archdeacons’ Visitations on five years of ministry as each of us to mature on our own spiritual journey. We are body, mind and spirit, and when Archdeacon Pastor. I’ve been comparing it to a rugby we pay too much attention to one of these, or neglect one, we become somehow dis- match I went to recently because, in my experience, integrated, out of kilter. Finding regular time and space for God, inspired by Christian church can be very much a ‘contact sport’.

  • Revised Plan April 2016 Traditional Orchards
    www.warwickshirewildlifetrust.org.uk ACTION for WILDLIFE Warwickshire, Coventry and Solihull Local Biodiversity Action Plan REVISED PLAN APRIL 2016 TRADITIONAL ORCHARDS 1. INTRODUCTION Traditional orchards are groups of fruit trees such as apples, pears and plums planted on vigorous rootstocks at low densities in permanent grassland managed in a low intensity way; nut-bearing shrubs such as walnuts, almonds and hazelnuts can also be present in some sites. These man- made habitats are long-established and widely distributed Blackwell Orchard and are a distinctive feature of the British countryside. Prime © Sarah Shuttleworth traditional orchard habitat consists of grazed grassland with fruit trees of varying age structure, with an abundance of standing and fallen dead and decaying wood. Warwickshire is not as rich in traditional orchards as its neighbouring counties of Gloucestershire and Worcestershire but it retains a valuable resource of this habitat, especially within Stratford-on-Avon District. Traditional orchards are structurally and ecologically similar to wood-pasture and parkland, with open-grown trees set in herbaceous vegetation, but are generally distinguished from these priority habitat complexes by the following characteristics: the species composition of the trees, these being primarily in the family Rosaceae; the usually denser arrangement of the trees; the small scale of individual habitat patches; the wider dispersion; greater frequency of occurrence of habitat patches in the countryside. Some traditional orchards may have originally been commercial orchards but are now no longer managed intensively. Others are small orchards planted originally to produce fruit for local consumption or for the production of cider and perry (pear wine). They are usually dominated by older, less intensively managed ‘standard’ trees (branches springing above the reach of grazing animals) planted at relatively lower densities, which allows livestock grazing beneath the orchard canopy.

  • 4 Crick and the Domesday Book
    HISTORICAL NOTES THE MANORS OF CRICK - 4 Crick and the Domesday Book - 3 As we have seen, the first Norman lord of the manor of Crick was Geoffrey de la Guérche, who held it as part of his baronial estates as a tenant-in-chief of William the Conqueror. He originated from a family of some considerable rank, for his father Silvestre was lord of la Guerche and Pouence, both being towns near Rennes on the border of Brittany and Anjou. Silvestre was Chancellor of Brittany, but after the death of his wife, he entered the Church, and in 1075 was consecrated Bishop of Rennes. Geoffrey was known in Brittany as de Pouence, but after coming to England he changed his title to de la Guerche. It is by no means certain, but quite probable that in fact he held a command in William's invading army of 1066, for a count of Brittany named Alan Fergant provided and led a third of the entire force. Since these men were Bretons, Geoffrey could well have been amongst them. His social rank alone would have hardly qualified him otherwise for the extent of his estates afterwards awarded to him by William. It is easy, and indeed customary, to regard a village at the time of the Domesday Survey - and, for that matter, in the succeeding centuries as an isolated entity having an independent place in history. The reality was very much otherwise. Every village was part of a group, large or small, which made up the estate of a tenant-in-chief, and thus Crick was but one manor amongst the considerable number held by Geoffrey de la Guerche.

  • Our Lady of the Sacred Heart a Parish History 1849
    Our Lady of the Sacred Heart A Parish History 1849 - 2004 The Church of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, Weston-in-Arden, Bulkington, Warwickshire Our Lady of the Sacred Heart - A Parish History - 1 Our Lady of the Sacred Heart - A Parish History - 2 A recent view of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Church looking towards Mill Lane Our Lady of the Sacred Heart - A Parish History - 3 This history is dedicated to past, present and future generations of Weston parishioners INTRODUCTION It gives me great pleasure to introduce this updated Parish History dedicated to past, present, and future generations of Weston Parishioners. A parish community is a very special place where people come together to live out their faith initiated at Baptism, to receive the Sacraments, to have a deeper awareness of what their faith means in their lives and live out the Gospel message of Christ. As a parish family, together with the priest we share in the joys and sorrows of life and hopefully support each other when difficulties arise. This parish from its humble beginnings has built up a rich tapestry of faith which has influenced the wider village community in many ways. The following pages give us glimpse of parish life in days gone by and the people past and present who have made such a valuable contribution to its mission. I would like to pay tribute to all the fine priests that have served this parish and have gone before us. Their hard work and dedication has been outstanding. May the Lord reward these good and faithful servants.
