  • The Good News from Nettleham Sunday 26 July 2020 Trinity 7 No 159 Urgent Notice…
    All Saints St. Mary’s NETTLEHAM PARISH CHURCH RISEHOLME PARISH CHURCH The Good News from Nettleham Sunday 26 July 2020 Trinity 7 No 159 Urgent notice…. The Church of England has issued new guidance on safety when meeting in church buildings, based on government guidance and instructions. Face-coverings now advised for all going into churches. “We strongly advise that face coverings should be worn by all those attending a place of worship, including ministers, worshippers, staff, volunteers, contractors and visitors, where there may be other people present; remembering that they are mainly intended to protect other people, not the wearer, from coronavirus COVID-19 and that they are not a replacement for physical distancing and regular hand washing.” Accordingly, with immediate effect, we are advising all who come into All Saints, please wear a face mask, as a sign and a means of offering safety as well as hospitality to others. If you do not have one, there are plenty in church. We suggest congregations should keep them on throughout worship but remove them carefully to receive communion. Clergy and ministers will wear them at all times except when speaking. The same advice applies when we open the church for private prayer, and for those visiting the Parish Centre. Please use sanitiser, including before and after touching masks, and keep 2m distance where possible. Young children and those with specific conditions are under no pressure to comply with guidance on masks – details later in GNFN. Fr Richard 25 July Father Richard writes… As we tentatively take steps to emerge from our Coronavirus shelter, to meet a little, and even, praise be, to worship together, we will need not to be over ambitious, and we will need to keep safety paramount.

  • COVID-19 Advice on Ordinations
    COVID-19 Advice on Ordinations Issue Date Version Issued by 9th June 2020 1 The House of Bishops Recovery Group The Recovery Group has been set up to support the Church of England as government guidance changes through the COVID-19 pandemic. This document has been prepared with information available by the issue date and is for planning purposes only until present restrictions are lifted. It will be kept under review and updated as the situation develops, with each update issued as a new version. The current version will always be available to download from the Church of England website via the Coronavirus FAQs page. Choosing dates for ordinations in 2020 1. Ordinations are understood to be intentionally public occasions, even if tickets are used to control numbers in modern times. They should therefore take place only when public worship in churches and cathedrals is permitted and when and where it is safe for them to take place. 2. Recent practice in the Church of England is for most ordinations to be scheduled for Petertide or Michaelmas, although those are only two of the options envisaged by Canon C 3. Any Sunday, holy day, or Ember Day will suffice.1 It is envisaged that, in 2020, public worship may resume from 4 July at the earliest (the feast of Peter and Paul being on 29 June). Given that this is not a certain date, and the Government may need to delay the start of “Stage 3” of the relaxation of the lockdown arrangements, and sufficient time is needed to ensure the ordination services are appropriately planned, Michaelmas seems the earliest practical date, with All Saints the most sensible alternative.

  • Archdeacons' News
    THE ARCHDEACONS’ FORUM for the Church of England and the Church in Wales Archdeacons’ News Issue no. 47 February 2020 from Cameron Watt Archdeacons’ National Development Officer Welcome to the first issue of the Archdeacons’ News of 2020. Over the past few months I have had the enormous privilege of getting to know many of the Archdeacons across England and Wales since starting this role. When I first spoke to Norman Boakes about this role, he waxed lyrical about both the work, but more importantly about the wonderful cohort of people who are called to Archidiaconal ministry. I must pay tribute to Norman, as my predecessor in this role. He built up the role and tirelessly championed Archdeacons across the Church of England and the Church in Wales. As this role develops I am fabulously supported by Husna Louise in Church House, Bishop Chris Goldsmith as the new Director of Ministry, and the Archdeacons’ Forum Executive which is very well led by Archdeacon Stephen Taylor. Over the coming years, I hope to be able to develop the support which is on offer to Archdeacons, and also to help to ensure that the collective wisdom of the Archdeacons is heard at all levels of our central church institutions. Outside of this role I am a part-time parish priest in a rural parish, and have found that combining these two roles keeps me grounded in both of them – long may that continue! The important thing is that I am here to support, pray for, and work alongside you – the Archdeacons who provide so much support, guidance and love for the work of God across our dioceses.

Welby repeatedly stressed that mediation must take place within the context of reconciliation. See News Extra on CNI today for full text of address.

  • Programme Guide (Version 4.2 –December 2015)
    Accompanied Ministry Development Programme Guide (Version 4.2 –December 2015) PREFACE Across the Diocese of Truro we have committed ourselves to ‘Discovering God’s Kingdom and Growing the Church.’ The many and varied communities of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly have never been more in need of the compassionate care and reconciling love of God and we, the church, are God’s chosen means of blessing others. God longs to see a flourishing Cornwall with a flourishing church at its heart. For the whole church in Cornwall to flourish, there is a need to re-invigorate our faith and our discipleship, our worship and our mission. We need to reach out to our communities with the love of God and the Good News of Jesus Christ, but to do this effectively we need both to continue faithfully to serve communities in ways which have stood the test of time and to find new and relevant ways of ‘being church’ in today’s world. Although we may not know exactly what these new ways will look like, we are undoubtedly being called to greater co-operation and collaboration – between churches and between clergy and lay people. Accompanied Ministry Development has been developed specifically for Cornwall. It is a very significant initiative by the Diocese intended both to support and to challenge all of us engaged in the ministry of the church. By the end of 2018, all incumbent clergy and the parishes in which they minister will have taken part. This Programme Guide explains the approach and programme for Accompanied Ministry Development.

  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2017
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2017 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.
