Let dust in dust and silence lie; sing, sing, ye heavenly choir. Thousands of thousands stand around thy throne, O God most high; ten thousand times ten thousand sound thy praise; but who am I? 1 Thy brightness unto them appears, while I thy footsteps trace; a sound of God comes to my ears, but they behold thy face: I shall, I fear, be dark and cold, with all my fire and light; yet when thou dost accept their gold, Lord, treasure up my mite. Enlighten with faith’s light my heart, inflame it with love’s fire, then shall I sing and take my part with that celestial choir. They sing, because thou art their sun; Lord, send a beam on me; for where heaven is but once begun, there alleluias be. How great a being, Lord, is thine, which doth all beings keep! Thy knowledge is the only line to sound so vast a deep: Thou art a sea without a shore, a sun without a sphere; thy time is now and evermore, thy place is everywhere. Words: John Mason (1646-1694) Music: Ken Naylor (1931-1991) Descant: Katherine Dienes-Williams (b 1970) Welcome and Bidding The Acting Dean welcomes the congregation. On behalf of the Chapter and Cathedral community, may I welcome you all here today. We are gathered together with joy and anticipation to welcome Dianna to this Cathedral Church as our Dean, and to the Diocese as its senior priest. We greet Martin, Dianna’s husband; her children Michael and Sarah, with Becky and Dave, and her wider and extended family; we look forward to sharing the life of this place with them all. Most of all we are here to ask God’s blessing on Dianna’s new ministry among us. Let us therefore be silent and remember God’s presence with us now. A short silence follows. 2 Versicles and Responses Bernard Rose (1916-96) Priest O Lord, open thou our lips. Choir And our mouth shall shew forth thy praise. Priest O God, make speed to save us. Choir O Lord, make haste to help us. Priest Glory be to the Father, and to the Son : and to the Holy Ghost; Choir As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be : world without end. Amen. Priest Praise ye the Lord. Choir The Lord’s name be praised. The congregation sits for the psalm, sung by the choir. Psalm 122 1 I was glad when they said unto me : We will go into the house of the Lord. 2 Our feet shall stand in thy gates : O Jerusalem. 3 Jerusalem is built as a city : that is at unity in itself. 4 For thither the tribes go up, even the tribes of the Lord : to testify unto Israel, to give thanks unto the Name of the Lord. 5 For there is the seat of judgement : even the seat of the house of David. 6 O pray for the peace of Jerusalem : they shall prosper that love thee. 7 Peace be within thy walls : and plenteousness within thy palaces. 8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes : I will wish thee prosperity. 9 Yea, because of the house of the Lord our God : I will seek to do thee good. Stand Glory be to the Father, and to the Son : and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be : world without end. Amen. The congregation sits. The First Lesson Isaiah 60: 1-5 and 19-21 Lady Toulson, Chair of the Cathedral Council The congregation stands. 3 During the hymn, the Lord-Lieutenant and Dean-Designate are conducted to stand before the Bishop. Hymn O thou who camest from above the fire celestial to impart kindle a flame of sacred love on the mean altar of my heart! There let it for thy glory burn with inextinguishable blaze, and trembling to its source return in humble prayer and fervent praise. Jesus, confirm my heart’s desire to work, and speak, and think for thee; still let me guard the holy fire, and still stir up the gift in me. Ready for all thy perfect will, my acts of faith and love repeat; till death thy endless mercies seal, and make the sacrifice complete. Text: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Music: Samuel Sebastian Wesley (1810-1876) The choir and congregation sit. THE PRESENTATION Her Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant of Surrey, Dame Sarah Goad, presents the Dean-Designate to the Bishop. My Lord Bishop, I present to you Dianna Lynn Gwilliams, nominated by Her Majesty the Queen by these Letters Patent to be instituted to the Deanery of this Cathedral Church of the Holy Spirit. The Letters Patent are handed to the Chancellor of the Diocese.. Bishop I thank you for your presentation. Let Her Majesty’s Letters Patent now be read. The Chancellor reads the Letters Patent and then places them on the altar. 4 Bishop Dianna, we greet you in the name of the Lord. Before we proceed to your institution and installation, pray with us that God will bless your ministry in this Cathedral Church and Diocese, and that he will equip you with the gifts you need to serve him and his people with faithfulness, understanding and integrity. The Dean-Designate kneels before the Bishop. After a short silence the choir sings the motet. The Cathedral clergy gather around the Bishop. Motet Ubi caritas Maurice Duruflé (1902-1986) Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est. Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor. Exsultemus, et in ipso iucundemur. Timeamus, et amemus Deum Vivum. Et ex corde diligamus nos sincero. Amen. Where charity and love are, God is there also. We gather here in the love of Christ. Let us rejoice and be glad in that love itself. We revere and love the living God. Let us love from a pure heart. Amen. Prayer and anointing Bishop Eternal God, whose we are and whom we serve: we pray for this Cathedral Church of the Holy Spirit, that it may be a house of prayer in which your word is diligently proclaimed and your sacraments faithfully administered; bless all who minister here, especially your servant Dianna, that this place may be a beacon of light in a dark world, a sign of hope to the needy and encouragement to pilgrims; we ask it through Jesus Christ our Lord. All Amen. 5 The Bishop blesses and anoints the Dean-Designate. Bishop Dianna, may the Lord sustain you in all your works and in all your ways, make you humble, just and true, and strengthen you in holiness and righteousness. May he anoint you with the oil of gladness that you may fulfil the ministry to which he has called you: and may the blessing of God almighty, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, be upon you and remain with you always. All Amen. THE INSTITUTION AND INSTALLATION The Declarations Bishop Let the Declaration of Assent be made and subscribed, and the necessary oaths be taken. The Church of England is part of the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church worshipping the one true God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It professes the faith uniquely revealed in the holy Scriptures and set forth in the catholic creeds, which faith the Church is called upon to proclaim afresh in each generation. Led by the Holy Spirit, it has borne witness to Christian truth in its historic formularies, the Thirty-nine Articles of Religion, the Book of Common Prayer and the Ordering of Bishops, Priests and Deacons. In the declaration you are about to make, will you affirm your loyalty to this inheritance of faith as your inspiration and guidance under God in bringing the grace and truth of Christ to this generation and making him known to those in your care? Declaration of Assent Dean- I, Dianna Lynn Gwilliams, do so affirm, and accordingly declare my belief in the Designate faith which is revealed in the holy Scriptures and set forth in the catholic creeds and to which the historic formularies of the Church of England bear witness: and in public prayer and administration of the sacraments, I will use only the forms of service which are authorised or allowed by Canon.

  • The Canterbury Association
    The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry.

MDCCCXLIIL Digitized by GoogI e OXPOBD: PRINTSD BY I. 8RBlIlPTON. THE OXFORD SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING THE STUDY OF GO THIC ARCHITECTURE. GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE is a subject which has of late years excited a considerable degree of public interest, and the labours of many eminent individuals have been directed to the recovery of its Principles. From the scarcity of records ex­ isting monuments are the safest guides in this research: but as they are widely separated, the labour of examination and comparison is so great, that, without some more systematic plan of operation than has hitherto been adopted, we can scarcely expect that the task will be satisfactorily accom­ plished. It has been suggested that this inconvenience may be best met by the formation of Local Associations, having for their principal aim the collecting of Drawings, and descriptions of the Edifices in their immediate neighbourhood, which would thus form so many sources, whence the enquirers into the Gothic Antiquities of any particular district might derive in­ formation.· In furtherance of this object, "The Oxford Society for Promoting the Study of Gothic Architecture" .has been established. The number of Churches now fast rising in every part of tbecountry, renders it 6ithe highest importance to provide for the cultivation of correct Architectural Taste; the circum­ stances of this place seem to point it out as peculiarly well suited for the purpose; because many of its residents are, or soon will be, Clergymen, the constituted guardians of our Ecclesiutical Edifices, while the City itself, and its neigh­ bourhood, abound in specimens of every period of the Art.

I think it was our largest attendance for very many years and the atmosphere and collegiality were inspiring and affirming. We were also blessed with very good speakers. The worship framework offered by Hopeweavers really did weave prayer, worship and hope through the conference. Thank you to all those who attended and participated so fully and thank you also to those who have shared their reflections on the conference already. If there is anything you would like the Forum Executive to consider when we review the event and start the planning for the next one, please send it to me by the end of February. In case anyone is interested, Jessica Martin has sent me an electronic copy of her address Hope, Desire and the Unexpected which she gave during our Closing Eucharist. If you would like a copy, just let me know. For those of us with Welsh connections, this year is one of those rare occasions when we can celebrate St David’s Day outside of Lent. Whatever you are planning for Lent, I hope it will be a time which allows for space and renewal, and an opportunity to continue reflections on how we may better be Dealers in Hope.
