Tom was selected for his recognition of his dedication to the service of God through the Church of England. What is Maundy Money??? The Royal Maundy is an ancient ceremony, inspired by The Bible. On the day before Good Friday, Jesus washed the feet of his disciples and commanded them to ‘Love one another’. By the thirteenth century the Royal Family was taking part in similar ceremonies. By washing the feet of the poor and giving money and gifts, they were showing humility and compassion. When Henry IV became king, he introduced a new tradition, deciding to give the same number of gifts as his age. So, for instance, when the monarch was forty, he gave forty of his subjects Maundy gifts. It became the custom for the sovereign to perform the ceremony, and the event became known as the Royal Maundy. The origins of Maundy money The first Maundy money ceremony took place in the reign of Charles II, when the king gave people undated hammered coins in 1662. The coins were a four penny, three penny, two penny and one penny piece. By 1670 the king started giving out a dated set of all four coins. 6 The tradition of the king or queen washing the feet of the poor faded out in the eighteenth century, but the monarch still gave people food and clothing. By the nineteenth century the tradition had changed again, and the monarch simply gave people the Maundy money. Maundy money today Maundy money has traditionally been made of sterling silver, apart from the brief interruptions of Henry VIII’s debasement of the coinage and the general change to 50% silver coins in 1020. The use of sterling silver resumed following the Coinage Act of 1971 and after decimalisation in 1971, the face values of the coins were increased from old to new pence. During Her Majesty The Queen’s reign, her portrait on ordinary circulating coinage has been updated four times. However, Maundy money still bears the same portrait of Her Majesty created by Mary Gillick that appeared on the first coins of her reign in 1953. Today’s recipients of Royal Maundy are elderly men and women, chosen because of the Christian service they have given to the Church and the community. The ceremony takes place every Maundy Thursday. There are as many recipients as there are years in the sovereign’s age. At the ceremony, the monarch hands each recipient two small leather string purses. A red purse contains ordinary coins, while a white one contains silver Maundy coins, amounting to the same number of pence as the years of the sovereign’s age.

With its stations….. With changes of routes… And with accidents! At birth we boarded the train and met our parents, and we believe they will always travel on our side. However, at some station our parents will step down from the train, leaving us on this journey alone. As time goes by other people will board the train; and they will be significant. I.e. Our siblings, friends, children, and even the love of our life. Many will step down and leave a permanent vacuum. Others will go so unnoticed that we don’t realize that they vacated their seats! Which is very sad when you think about it. This train ride will be full of joy, sorrow, fantasy, expectations, hellos, goodbyes, and farewells. Success consists of having a good relationship with all the passengers….. requiring that we give the best of ourselves. The mystery to everyone is: We do not know at which station we ourselves will step down. So, we must live the best way— love, forgive, and offer the best of who we are. It is important to do this because when the time comes for us to step down and leave our seat empty—we should leave behind beautiful memories for those who will continue to travel on the train of life. I wish you a joyful journey this year on the train of life. Reap success and give lots of love. More importantly, give thanks for the journey!

  • The Chapels Royal of Britain. Iv
    THE CHAPELS ROYAL OF BRITAIN THE CHAPELS ROYAL OF BRITAIN. IV. CHAPEL ROYAL, WHITEHALL. BY J. CRESSWELL RoscAMP, M.E. "Sir, you Must no more call it York Place: that is past,. For since the Cardinal fell, that title's lost ; 'Tis now the King's, and call'd-Whitehall." HITEHALL derived its name from the old Palace that stood W there till it was destroyed by fire in 1698. At the present time it is principally known from being the headquarters of aU the various offices connected with the Government and for the Horse­ Guard's building which was designed by Kent and is beautifully proportionate. The Palace of Whitehall was original! y known as " York House,'"~ and was the London residence of the Archbishops of York till •~ it was delivered and demised to the King (Henry VIII) by Charter February 7 (1529), on the disgrace of Cardinal Wolsey, Arch­ bishop of York, and was t,hen called Whitehall." It was built in 1240 by Hubert, Earl of Kent, and soon afterwards became the property of the Friars Predicant of Black Friars (Dominicans). who in 1248 sold it to Walter de Grey, Archbishop of York; and from that time to the fall of Wolsey it belonged to the See of York. Cll:rdinal Wolsey built much on to it including a Chapel, and it assumed under his ambitious tenure a splendour equal to, if not. surpassing, that of any Royal residence. The Cardinal had a passion for architecture and building, and loved pomp and magnificence, and thus it is not surprising to find his having made great additions, as he did at Oxford and Hampton Court.

  • Tudor Coinage B.J
    TUDOR COINAGE B.J. COOK Introduction THE study of Tudor coinage since the foundation of the British Numismatic Society has been overwhelmingly dominated by two figures, Henry Symonds (PI. 3c) in the first half of the 20th century, and Christopher Challis (PI. 7b) from the 1970s to the present day. It is pleasingly apposite that Symonds's contribution is considered in detail elsewhere in this volume by Christopher Challis. The work of both Symonds and Challis has not for the most part been numismatic in the very technical sense: neither of them has produced catalogues, or works of detailed classification. Their achievement has been rather to provide an unparalleled insight into the production, organisation and use of coinage, that scholars of other periods can only hope to emulate, rather than excel. Specialist work on the coinage of the Tudors before the foundation of the Society was in fact sparse in the extreme. In Brooke's English Coins of 1933 the only such early contribution deemed worthy of inclusion in the bibliography was Sir John Evans' 1886 paper on the debased coinage of Henry VIII, published in the Numismatic Chronicle.' Occasionally picked up by modern scholars is A.E. Peake's 1891 article 'Some notes on the coins of Henry VII', which was an enterprising attempt to link details of the coinage with historical events, not all of which may have been wholly misguided.2 Given this scope for further investigation, it cannot be said that the foundation of the BNS did a great deal initially to remedy this apparent neglect, since work on Tudor numis- matics in the first half of the 20th century continued to be somewhat restricted, apart, of course, from Henry Symonds (the most spectacular exception to this generalisation), who split his many publications between the Journal and the Numismatic Chronicle.

  • Roll out the Red Carpet P.J
    Roll out the Red Carpet P.J. Salter Pat Salter worked at the Guildhall Museum Rochester and at MALSC for over 20 years. She is a well known author and works include A Man of Many Parts - Edwin Harris 1859 – 1938; Pat is also a FOMA Vice President. Roll out the Red Carpet, was originally published in The Clock Tower, the journal of the Friends of Medway Archives (FOMA) from May 2105 to May 2017 inclusive. The Clock Tower can be found on the FOMA website at http://foma-lsc.org/journal.html; the last two issues are password protected for FOMA members. Roll out the Red Carpet is a compilation of work originally undertaken by Pat for an exhibition at the Medway Archives in Strood, Kent, and gives a fascinating insight into royal visits to the Medway Towns over the centuries, from Anglo Saxon times right up to the present day. Thanks to Rob Flood and Philip Dodd for helping to make publication possible. Introduction The red carpet has been rolled out, literally or metaphorically, for royal visitors to the Medway area for centuries. However, the red carpet has not always been a celebratory one. Wars, sieges, rebellions and invasions have been occasioned by, or resulted in, carpets of blood. The Medway area has been inhabited since ancient times but the first royal visitor that we know of, with any certainty, was Aethelbert, King of Kent, in 604 and the latest, at the time of writing, that of the Princess Royal in March 2011. Chapter 1: Anglo Saxons The admirable Bede described Aethelberht, King of Kent as an able, powerful, and open-minded ruler who had a Christian Queen [Berta] unrestrained in her religious faith and practice and had the cathedral church of St Andrew built at Rochester from its foundations.

  • Wakefield Cathedral Choir - Składa Się Z Chłopców, Dziewcząt I Mężczyzn
    Wakefield Cathedral Choir - składa się z chłopców, dziewcząt i mężczyzn. Większość chłopców kształci się w Queen Elizabeth Grammar School i otrzymuje stypendia chóralne. Chórzystki dziewczęce zostały wprowadzone w 1992 r. krótko po ich wprowadzeniu w katedrze w Salisbury. Chór występuje podczas chóralnych wieczorów we wtorek, środę, czwartek i od czasu do czasu w piątek oraz podczas niedzielnych nabożeństw: parafialnej Eucharystii, uroczystej Eucharystii i Evensong, czyli wieczornych nabożeństw.
