Faith Centre News Burnley & Pendle Faith Centre Tel: - 01282 682275 Email: - [email protected] 09 JANUARY 2009 Happy New Year to one and all! I hope you all had a good Christmas / New Year break. 2009 has all the signs of being very challenging year; be it locally, nationally and certainly, internationally. Here at the Faith Centre we are very much looking forward to building up and pushing on with our many dreams and initiatives, the “end game” being that lifelong journey of creating a more caring, peaceful, respectful and better informed community. Better informed communities are based upon welcoming and encountering people who come in peace and respect for themselves and for others, who desire to learn and grow. Thus in 2009 we will work together to maximise the many opportunities afforded to us by our “safe space” here at our new Burnley Campus, where people of all faiths and none will come together to tell their stories and share their values, beliefs and hopes. Where from the youngest to the not so young we will become more educated in the very community in which we all co‐exist, whatever the external financial / economic factors that lie ahead of us all this year. Come and join us in this shared vision. Have a great 2009! This week’s updates:‐ ¾ Thank You – to everyone who took part in our various Eid, Advent & Christmas celebrations during December ’08. It really was a special time and it has been gratifying to hear the many positive comments from those who were involved. Coupled with this we had ‘numerous’ appearances by Fr Christmas around the Campus during the final week of term, which all contributed to a really fun time for all concerned (!!) Rumour has it that there were two Fr Christmases in the Faith Centre (simultaneously) at one stage! Christmas decorations may all be back in the attic now, yet remember, we are still very much in ‘celebration mode’ from a Christian perspective i.e. caught up in the wonder of the Christmas Season, which runs up to and including this Sunday (11th) when the Baptism of Jesus will be celebrated. ¾ Interfaith Pilgrimage to Jerusalem: 5th – 12th February 2009 – as part of a programme to strengthen faith leadership, a group of 8 Christians and 13 Muslims are visiting the Holy City in February. The initiative, organised by our close partners Building Bridges in Burnley, will aim to deepen understanding of the three Abrahamic faiths and work more closely for the benefit of Burnley and beyond, when our pilgrims return. The party will live together in a Christian hotel located in the Muslim Quarter, in sight of the Noble Sanctuary and the Holy Sepulchre. They will also pray together, particularly for peace in the Holy Land and especially at this present time. The group will be coming together for a meeting at the Faith Centre tomorrow (10th) as part of their final preparations. Do keep them in your thoughts and prayers. We wish the group ‘Bon Voyage’, a happy and safe pilgrimage and look forward to hearing their stories and reflections when they return. ¾ Buddhist Meditation – see details of the next series of meditation classes on a separate attachment. Please feel free to circulate to others and print off hard copies to publicise. Classes begin again on Wednesday 21 January 2009 @ 1930hrs. EVERYONE IS WELCOME. ¾ Burnley Action Partnership (BAP) – we are delighted that approx 40 members of the BAP Assembly will be visiting the Campus this Monday evening (12th), when they will be touring our new £31m facilities for the first time and holding one of their quarterly meetings in the Spiritual Space at the Faith Centre. An opportunity for this Local Strategic Partnership to see ‘hands on’ the achievement of one of their stated delivery pledges of a few years ago namely, the establishment and opening of a new Faith Centre, serving not only the needs of local schools and the wider community of the borough, but also Pendle too. It is absolutely essential that we do not lose sight of the fact that the Faith Centre is here to serve both boroughs and of course, beyond their borders too i.e. EVERYONE IS WELCOME. ¾ The North West Development Agency – are currently undergoing a study exploring the role of faith in the region and how it relates to other bodies e.g. local / county authorities. One of the key aspects of the research will be to identify the effectiveness and impact of the many initiatives being undertaken by the faith sector e.g. those involving social action projects. During a meeting at Building Bridges in Burnley earlier this week, a series of questions were posed by Helen Woollaston of the Change Institute, an independent research consultancy who are conducting the review. Representatives from ‘across the spectrum’ were present, including the religious, the voluntary sector, the Police, the Fire Service and local education providers, within which is the Faith Centre. We look forward to receiving the official report later this year, which in itself, will provide an opportunity to showcase the good work being undertaken in the town and those who benefit from it. ¾ Face to Faith Interfaith Dialogue ‐ come along and meet new people at this Women Only event at St Peter’s Church Burnley; this Saturday, 10 January 2009, starting at 1230hrs. For more info, ring Kath Bill on 01282 413599. ¾ Burnley Churches Ecumenical Service – Sunday 18th January at 4pm at the United Reform Church. Preacher = The Rt. Rev. John Goddard, Bishop of Burnley. All welcome. ¾ Whalley Abbey – a very busy first week back did at least have quiet moments, following a visit to this former Cistercian Monastery, now owned and operated by the Church of England via the Diocese of Blackburn. During the visit, some initial ‘explorations’ were made with Helen Sage of the Diocese ‐ who regularly provides inputs at the Faith Centre – to see if we can work together on novel initiatives, for the benefit of all people, irrespective of their faith, conscious that the Abbey is founded upon the Christian values of peace, quiet, refreshment and welcome. Watch this space and also check out www.whalleyabbey.org Quiet prayer is a matter of being: being in stillness, being in God; not achieving anything or trying to find words, but simply being. (from ‘Wait and See’ & ‘ Wait and Trust’ by Angela Ashwin) For comparison see Psalm 46:10 .

  • Goddard Wills 1606-1809
    Goddard Wills COMPILED BY RAINALD W. KNIGHTLEY GODDARD, LICENTIATE OF THE ROYAL INSTITUTE OF BRITISH ARCHITECTS. [REPRINTED FROM "MISCELLANEA GENEALOGICA ET HERALDICA"] LONDON: MITCHELL HUGHES AND CLARKE, 140 WARDOUR STREET, W. 1910. Rainald William Knightley Goddard Electronically prepared edition - January 2005. This edition has been transcribed using optical character recognition (OCR) from an poor quality copy of the reprinted publication, as a consequence there may be errors in addition to those in the original print and its subsequent reprint. The slightly odd pagination is to ensure that the original index page numbers correspond accurately to their referenced pages. It should be also noted that in the copy used for this transcription that the use of abbreviations is very inconsistent, as is the use of superscript characters! However, the current editor has attempted to make this a true copy by repeating those idiosyncrasies, which must have made the original typesetting a nightmare for the publisher. Additionally, consistent spelling is a 20th century phenomena, so the “quaint” spelling used in the original copy has been followed throughout this edition, making the automatic spellchecker virtually useless. Document search engines will also be very unreliable. The only known addition to the previously published version is the appendix of endnotes for interpretation of some of the now more obscure terms used in the wills. This collection of wills seems to be fairly haphazard and is only a small proportion of the Goddard wills presently available. This collection is generally only from the southern half of England and the purpose behind the collection is not obvious.

  • A Diocese Review
    THE JANUARY 2014 SPECIAL ONLINE EDITION SeeMAGAZINE JOURNAL OF BLACKBURN DIOCESE : THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND IN LANCASHIRE 2013:2013: AA DioceseDiocese reviewreview EVENTS ACROSS 2013 The Church of England in Lancashire is a large and diverse organisation. Known as ‘Blackburn Diocese’, after the town in Lancashire which is home to the region’s Cathedral, it covers most of the traditional boundaries of the County. From your local parish church (there are 226 parishes) to the work of the Diocesan Boards of Finance and Education, there is a lot going on – some of it you may not even realise is the responsibility of the Diocese; while some things others may take for granted. To illustrate the wide diversity of the Diocese’s work, here we look at events from across 2013. This special edition of ‘The See’ only scratches the surface of the work of the Church of England in Lancashire but will give you a flavour of the amazing wider organisation you/ we are a part of. Front page pictures, clockwise from top: The Bishop and his wife Heather meet the clergy chapter in Blackpool on their visit to Blackpool Deanery as part of the Bishop’s series of ‘Deanery Days’; soon-to-be Bishop Julian meets a volunteer at Blackburn Foodbank on the day his appointment was announced; Kirsty, who featured in a video about the St Phillips Grassroots Centre in Nelson. Kirsty was a user of the centre and now volunteers there and young people attending the event to mark the 25th anniversary of the Blackburn Cursillo Group.
