  • Diocesan Synod an Overview of the Diocese
    Welcome to Diocesan Synod Thank you for responding to God’s call and being elected to the Diocesan Synod. As a member you will be playing an important role in the life and mission of the Church of England in Suffolk and shaping our strategic priorities for the next three years. This guide is to help you with that responsibility and provide a brief introduction to the Diocese. Further information about the Synod can be found on the website: www.cofesuffolk.org > ‘About Us’ > ‘Diocesan Synod’ or http://www.cofesuffolk.org/synods-committees/diocesan-synod An Overview of the Diocese The Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich was founded in 1914 and serves the county of Suffolk, except for an area in the north east around Lowestoft and one parish in the county of Essex. It serves over 660,000 people living in a geographical area of 1,400 square miles. Of this population 3% (c.19,000 people) identify themselves with the Church of England by being members of the church electoral roll and about 2% (c.14,000) attend a service in their parish in any given week, with 1.75% (c.11,500) attending Sunday services once a month or more. For the next six years ambitious targets have been agreed to strengthen engagement with our communities, increase the number of people we reach and grow new Christian disciples, through the work, mission and ministry that you as a Synod member help govern.

  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2021
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2021 The Porvoo Declaration commits the churches which have signed it ‘to share a common life’ and ‘to pray for and with one another’. An important way of doing this is to pray through the year for the Porvoo churches and their Dioceses. The Prayer Diary is a list of Porvoo Communion Dioceses or churches covering each Sunday of the year, mindful of the many calls upon compilers of intercessions, and the environmental and production costs of printing a more elaborate list. Those using the calendar are invited to choose one day each week on which they will pray for the Porvoo churches. It is hoped that individuals and parishes, cathedrals and religious orders will make use of the Calendar in their own cycle of prayer week by week. In addition to the churches which have approved the Porvoo Declaration, we continue to pray for churches with observer status. Observers attend all the meetings held under the Agreement. The Calendar may be freely copied or emailed for wider circulation. The Prayer Diary is updated once a year. For corrections and updates, please contact Ecumenical Officer, Maria Bergstrand, Ms., Stockholm Diocese, Church of Sweden, E-mail: [email protected] JANUARY 3/1 Church of England: Diocese of London, Bishop Sarah Mullally, Bishop Graham Tomlin, Bishop Pete Broadbent, Bishop Rob Wickham, Bishop Jonathan Baker, Bishop Ric Thorpe, Bishop Joanne Grenfell.
