Under the firm stewardship of Wendy and Steve Smith (to whom go grateful thanks), the first phase of competition ended in a tense play-off final, won in the end by Wendy Smith (no fix there then!). The company then paused to enjoy a BBQ under sunny skies, where Chris Roy took the prize for the most exotic BBQ and Laurie Watson for the most smoke.

I was looking forward to being there and was fascinated to compare what I know and experience of the Church of England decision making process with what happened in Rome.” He added: “I was intrigued to hear whether we can all understand ourselves as we related one to another and to each one of us, as members of the human family.” Paris attacks: Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby admits doubting God, warns against military action The Rt Revd Tim Thornton, Bishop of Truro meets Pope Francis watched by the Revd Tim McQuiban, the Methodist fraternal delegate and a Methodist Minister in Rome PHOTO CREDIT: All image rights and copyrights reserved to the Photographic Service of L’Osservatore Romano The Rt Revd Tim Thornton, Bishop of Truro, says it is clear there are “major differences in the room” at the Roman Catholic Synod on the Family in Rome where he recently represented the Anglican church.

  • Worship at Home: During the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity Theme: Living with Difference
    Worship at Home: During the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity Theme: Living with Difference HYMN O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! Sung by St Martin’s Voices O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! bow down before him, his glory proclaim; with gold of obedience, and incense of lowliness, kneel and adore him, the Lord is his name! Low at his feet lay thy burden of carefulness, high on his heart he will bear it for thee, comfort thy sorrows, and answer thy prayerfulness, guiding thy steps as may best for thee be. Fear not to enter his courts in the slenderness of the poor wealth thou wouldst reckon as thine: truth in its beauty, and love in its tenderness, these are the offerings to lay on his shrine. These, though we bring them in trembling and fearfulness, he will accept for the name that is dear; mornings of joy give for evenings of tearfulness, trust for our trembling and hope for our fear. O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! bow down before him, his glory proclaim; with gold of obedience, and incense of lowliness, kneel and adore him, the Lord is his name! Words: John Samuel Bewley Monsell (1811-1875) Tune: Was Lebet Was Schwebet INTRODUCTION By the president, Rev Charles Hadley, Storrington Priory, West Sussex Procession of Chalice and Paten By Ione Morley-Fletcher and Fr Gilmour McDermott at Sclerder Abbey, Cornwall 1 PSALM 122 Sung by Sibylle Wisselmann, Valerie Duquennoy, Vaclav Waloschek, and Romain Berthelot from the Chemin Neuf Community choir at Les Dombes Abbey, France I rejoiced when I heard them say: "Let us go to God's house." And now our feet are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem.

    MARCH-APRIL 2018 Curate’s Corner Spring is here again and it has now been a year since my licensing in February of 2017, Where did last year go? As always I am fascinated by the changing colours of the natural year. As I write this the colour is white, there are little crowds snowdrops huddled together in many gardens about the benefice and wild garlic is pushing through. But white will soon give way to yellow as the primroses and daffodils make an appearance leading up to the main event, purple, once the bluebells burst onto the scene. The church year too follows a similar pattern, the liturgical colour of Christmastide and Epiphany is white too but soon gives way, briefly, to the green of Ordinary time. This in turn also gives way to purple once we enter into Lent. Ash Wednesday was relatively early, 14 th of February, this year. In years gone by most baptisms From the Editor traditionally took place at Easter, and Lent was often used as a time of preparation for the candidates. Soon I have a lime tree. Not the large specimen tree of garden avenues, but a little tree in a pot which grows sweet smelling white flowers and little limes which I use in my Gin and Tonic. others began to take an interest in what It sits on a south facing window sill next to my computer and encourages me to write and to was going on, and not wanting to be left look forward to warmer weather.
