  • Northern Light, August 2016
    Northern Light News from the Scottish Episcopal Church - Diocese of Aberdeen & Orkney September 2016 Scottish Charity No. SC022180 Issue 94 Autumn Edition BOB’S AWAY On 24th June 2016 we gathered at St Colman’s Church in Burravoe on the Island of Yell with Bishop Bob, to officially and formally give thanks for his ministry with us and alongside us. St Colman’s happens to be the most northerly Scottish Episcopal Church, and of course the most northerly church in the Diocese of Aberdeen and Orkney. We welcomed to the service, entitled “Bob’s Away”, Methodist and Church of Scotland ministers and brother and sisters and we made presentations to Bishop Bob in a reception following the service in the community hall. It was a joyous celebration of Bob’s ministry with us, as well as a celebration of our own shared discipleship and ministry on Yell. As the picture shows, Bishop Bob called us to worship by ringing the ship’s bell which hangs at the church door. He heralded the beginning of what is probably the first of the celebrations marking Bishop Bob’s retirement later this year. Perhaps it was symbolic that this began in the most northerly point of the Diocese? What was also poignant was that the 24th June is also to anniversary of Bishop Bob’s ordination as Deacon. This was not known as the service began and Bishop Bob highlighted this personal note during the service at St Colman’s. Two days later we also had a service at St Magnus’ Church in Lerwick at which we made presentations to Bishop Bob and Liz, and he responded by telling us that that day also happened to be the anniversary of his priesting! Sad though it is often is to say farewell to people “moving on” we were privileged to be able to hold these services in June heralding what we expect to be a chorus of thanksgiving for Bob’s ministry as Bishop of this Diocese.

Aberdeenshire Council undertook monitoring of NO 2 concentrations at 11 sites within 5 settlements, including new monitoring sites in the town of Ellon. Monitoring results show that concentrations of NO 2 in these locations are unlikely to exceed the objectives. There are a number of new biomass developments within the local authority area. Information will continue to be sought and screening assessments will be undertaken where information is available. For developments where information has already been submitted and where screening assessments have been completed, there are no exceedances of AQS objectives predicted. A number of new local developments with potential to impact on air quality have been identified within the local authority area. There is no requirement for Aberdeenshire Council to proceed to a Detailed Assessment for any pollutant at present. An Updating and Screening Report will be submitted in 2015.
