  • PARISH NEWS from the Cathedral and Parish Church of St
    No. 396 July & August 2012 PARISH NEWS From the Cathedral and Parish Church of St. German, Peel Worship, teaching and service ( Suggested Donation – 70p ) A year in Peel Reverend James McGowan emerges from the Queen’s Jubilee service in the Cathedral in May. James was ordained Deacon in July 2011, having joined St German’s as Curate. His ordination as Priest is on 1st July 2012. Moving forward and serving with hope “We are here to find ways of serving in the community – to do the mission of God’s church”. Canon Brian Kelly called each one of us to find the way in which we can be active in the name of the church when he gave words of warm appreciation to the Women’s Guild on Sunday 24th June. He was preaching on the day we gave thanks to God for the service of the Guild on its closure, before members went on to a celebratory lunch in the Deanery. As Brian paid tribute to their exemplary service over 95 years, and to the significant financial contribution from the work of the Guild, he also pointed out that the dissolution of the Guild was part of the natural order of things. In a sermon full of happy reminiscences he reflected how change is constantly present in the church – as in all of life – and noted some of the changes he’d experienced in his long ministry. But the call to each of us to serve as we can, in ways relevant to today’s community, and motivated by our faith in Christ, never changes he said.

  • Notes from the Music Director (No
    Notes from the Music Director (No. 16) Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church, Rochester, Pennsylvania Henry Doktorski, III November 1, 2015—All Saints’ Day "All Saints Day," a painting By Fra Angelica (1395-1455). The custom of honoring the faithful deceased is said to have originated in the ancient Roman holiday of the Feast of the Lemures (May 13), in which malevolent and restless spirits of the dead were propitiated. By the eighth century, the festival commemorating all saints had been moved to November 1 by the Christian churches in England and Ireland in order to Christianize the Celtic harvest festival of Samhain, which marked the beginning of winter and communal attention to the dead. In current Christian use, All Saints’ Day is dedicated to thanksgiving for all the named and unnamed who have died in the Lord. At Grace Lutheran, as in many assemblies, the names of members who have died over the previous twelve months are read aloud. Our Hymn of the Day is “For All the Saints” (LBW 174), with text by the Right Reverend Bishop William Walsham How, and music by the celebrated English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams. William Walsham How (1823- 1897), the son of a Shrewsbury solicitor, studied at Shrewsbury School, Wadham College, Oxford and University College in Durham. He was ordained as an Anglican priest in 1846, and soon began a ministry as curate at the Abbey Church in Shrewsbury. In 1851 he became Rector of Whittington and was at one point Rural Dean of Oswestry. In 1879 he became a suffragan bishop in London, under the title of Bishop of Bedford.

In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue All that is not holy, all that is not true: Crown him as your Captain in temptation’s hour; Let his will enfold you in its light and power. — words by Caroline Maria Noel (1817–1877) based on Philippians 2:5-7 Opening Sentences Opening Hymn 503 (see page 7) Lord, We Have Come at Your Own Invitation O QUANTA QUALIA - 2 - Prayer of Confession Merciful God, you pardon all who truly repent and turn to you. We humbly confess our sins and ask your mercy. We have not loved you with a pure heart, nor have we loved our neighbor as ourselves. We have not done justice, loved kindness, or walked humbly with you, our God. Have mercy on us, O God, in your loving-kindness. In your great compassion, cleanse us from our sin. Create in us a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within us. Do not cast us from your presence, or take your Holy Spirit from us. Restore to us the joy of your salvation and sustain us with your bountiful Spirit.

  • Newsletter for April 2012
    NEWSLETTER FOR APRIL 2012 Holy Week and Easter The week begins with the commemoration of Christ's entry into Jerusalem, with a palm procession around church and the congregational reading of one of the Passion gospels (this year, Mark). We then focus on energies on the 'three days' - the sequence of services from Maundy Thursday night to Easter night and morning. This is best understood as a single extended celebration of our Lord's passion, death and resurrection, for each service flows into the next. Earlier on Maundy Thursday we have our school's Easter service at 9.30am - unlike other schools which broke up earlier, this is their last day of term, and a good opportunity for us to share the Easter story; and also the service at St Paul's at 10.30am [all welcome] where all clergy and lay ministers renew their vows with our bishops, and the oils are consecrated. Maundy Thursday: at 7pm we gather around the table in the panelled room to remember the supper Jesus shared with his disciples, with all its Passover overtones, moving into church to share the sacrament of holy communion. At the end, the altar is stripped and left bare, and consecrated bread and wine from the service, for communion the next day, is taken to the side chapel, where we keep a watch of prayer for as long as we are able (compare the disciples in Gethsemane). Good Friday: we join with Churches Together in Stepney and Wapping in a Walk of Witness, with readings, hymns and prayers along the way - outside, not inside! The route and approximate timings are 11am:: Methodist Mission, Whitechapel Road 11.15am: Stepney Meeting House, Stepney Way 11.30am: St Dunstan’s Stepney 11.45am: Departure Café, Commercial Road 12.00am: Royal Foundation of St.

  • Hymns of the Faith: “For All the Saints”
    Biblical Perspectives Magazine Volume 23, Number 20, May 9 to May 15, 2021 Hymns of the Faith: “For All the Saints” By Dr. Bill Wymond A Presentation of First Presbyterian Church, Jackson, Mississippi With Dr. J. Ligon Duncan, Dr. Derek Thomas and Dr. Bill Wymond Dr. Wymond: Good morning! This is “Hymns of the Faith,” brought to you by Jackson's First Presbyterian Church. The minister of the First Presbyterian Church is Dr. Ligon Duncan. Stay tuned for “Hymns of the Faith.” And now here with “Hymns of the Faith” is Dr. Ligon Duncan. Dr. Duncan: Thank you, Bill Wymond. This is “Hymns of the Faith,” and I'm Ligon Duncan with my good friend, Derek Thomas and with Dr. Bill Wymond to discuss great hymns of the Christian faith. The Christian faith is a singing faith, and we have had a delightful time over the last number of months studying together some of the greatest hymns of the last 1900 years. And today we are looking at a hymn, the text of which was written in the 19th century; and the tune that is probably most associated with this text now was written in the early part of the 20th century by one of my favorite modern composers. For All the Saints is the name of this hymn. I guess, Derek, that this has come to be very much associated, in our congregation, with funeral services. It's very often sung at services where Christian believers are being laid to rest, and their families are singing with hope in their hearts about that which is to come.
