  • The Sisters of St. Joseph. Beginnings in London Diocese 1868-1878 by Sister Julia MOORE, Scj., M.A., PH.D
    CCHA, Study Sessions, 45(1978), 37-55 The Sisters of St. Joseph. Beginnings in London Diocese 1868-1878 by Sister Julia MOORE, scj., M.A., PH.D. The first ten years of the history of the Sisters of S t. Joseph of London, 1868-1878 is the subject of this paper. However, since the London Community traces its roots to the first foundation of the Sisters of St. Joseph made at Lepuy, France in 1650, I shall refer briefly to our origins. T he first Sisters were brought together by a French Jesuit, Jean-Pierre Médaille. This holy man, reflecting upon his country’s sufferings resulting from the aftermath of the W ars of Religion, longed to heal its wounded people. That is the reason why the Congregation he founded had as basic concept UNITY; this is also interpreted as Reconciliation or Healing. The first members visited and cared for the sick, ministered to the poor, the aged, the imprisoned and instructed young girls in spiritual matters. In the early years, the Congregation grew steadily in numbers of Sisters and established Convents keeping pace with the growth. The French Revolution brought its sufferings, and the persecution of the Terrorists caused the dispersement of the members of the Community. Before the Reign of Terror was over, five Sisters of St. Joseph had been guillotined and another five were awaiting the same fate in the prison of St. Didier-Haute Loire. With the fall of Robespierre, the imprisoned Sisters were freed and one of them, Mother S t. John Fontbonne, reorganized the Community members, assembling them at Lyons in 1807.

For much of the last century the Church of England was in decline. The world was changing rapidly. But it is very important to remember: The Big Picture • Over two thousand years the story of the Christian church has been one of growth • Across the world, the Christian church is growing steadily In England • Decline has slowed down and levelled off over the last 10 years. • Midweek church attendance has grown rapidly • Many new congregations have grown in all kinds of churches • We have learned important lessons about making disciples • There are growing churches of all traditions Over the three years 2008-2010, all age weekly attendance across the Diocese of Sheffield grew by 1.5% By promoting Church Family, welcoming and inspiring children, and being active in partnership with the local schools and community All Saints’ Woodlands has grown from 60 adults to 130 adults and children over 6 years.

  • 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.

  • + Diocese of Sheffield DAC Guidance Notes
    +Diocese of Sheffield DAC Guidance Notes List of Approved Architects and Surveyors 2013- 2017 Updated February 2015 1 List of Approved QI Architects & Surveyors 2013- 2017 2 Quinquennial Inspections (QI) PCCs are required to commission a full inspection of the church building and its curtilage once every five years. This is a statutory requirement under The Inspection of Churches Measure 1955 (Quinquennial Inspections) Care of Churches and Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction Measure 1991. Under the Measure, only those architects and surveyors approved by the DAC can undertake the Quinquennial Inspection of a church. In order to fulfil their responsibilities under the Measure, PCCs who fail in their duty in this regard may find that the Archdeacon will commission an inspection for which the PCC will have to pay. The importance of regular inspections by architects and surveyors who specialise in the conservation and repair of historic buildings cannot be over-emphasised. Historic and 'traditional' structures deteriorate in a manner that is very different from modern buildings and it takes a specialist to identify correctly defects that require attention from the superficial results of the ageing process. The five yearly QI report is one of the most important tools for the church in understanding and maintaining the fabric of its building. A QI report should include a list of recommended works in order of urgency, most of which will require a detailed specification and schedule to be submitted as a faculty application prior to the work being carried out. If your QI report does not include such a list, please refer your Church Inspector to the template available on the diocesan website that sets out the required content of a QI report.
