St. Swithin’s Day, (July 15), a day on which, according to folklore, the weather for a subsequent period is dictated. In popular belief, if it rains on St. Swithin’s Day, it will rain for 40 days, but if it is fair, 40 days of fair weather will follow. St. Swithin was Bishop of Winchester from 852 to 862. At his request he was buried in the churchyard, where rain and the steps of passers by might fall on his grave. According to legend, after his body was moved inside the cathedral on July 15, 971, a great storm ensued. The first textual evidence for the weather prophecy appears to have come from a 13th- or 14th-century entry in a manuscript at Emmanuel College, Cambridge. You can find lots more history about him, but he is perhaps one of the more commonly heard of saints, even if its only the legend about the weather.

  • INTRODUCTION It Is Possible to Wonder What More There Is to Say
    INTRODUCTION It is possible to wonder what more there is to say about whether the Church of England should have women bishops. The Church of England has already been blessed by a series of substantial reports – notably the Rochester Report in 2004, and the series of documents that went to General Synod in 2006 from the Guildford Group, the Bishops of Guildford and Gloucester, and the Faith & Order Advisory Group. This Report, nevertheless, breaks new ground and is of a different character from what has gone before. The task that the General Synod gave us in July 2006 was to prepare possible legislation, consistent with the Synod’s view that the time had come to explore in some detail what the practical implications would be of admitting women to the episcopate. This report, therefore, seeks to move the debate on from the ‘whether’ to the ‘how’. In so doing it sets out some key options, with illustrative legal material. Our hope is that this Report will now enable Synod members to make an informed choice as to how to proceed. While the Report essentially focuses on practicalities, the Group has throughout been engaged on the theological and ecclesiological implications of different ways of proceeding. Within the Group, as within the Synod, there has been a wide range of views and we have not seen it as our task to strain for consensus. We have, however, engaged with one another with great courtesy, united in a shared commitment to a common task, and been nurtured by much prayer and fellowship together.

  • GS Misc 1241 GENERAL SYNOD
    GS Misc 1241 GENERAL SYNOD THE REPORT OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY’S COMMISSION ON THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE CHANNEL ISLANDS TO THE WIDER CHURCH OF ENGLAND Summary A draft Measure is before this Synod enabling the attachment of the Channel Islands Deaneries to the Diocese of Salisbury. This is the principal recommendation of an Archbishop’s Commission which reported last October. If agreed, this would enable Order(s) in Council to end the attachment of the Islands to Winchester, and the ad hoc arrangements that have been made for their oversight since 2013. This way forward is supported by the Island Deaneries and the Diocese of Salisbury. Summary of the Commission’s Report The Archbishop’s Commission on the relationship of the Channel Islands to the wider Church of England was set up in June 2018 following the breakdown between the Islands and the Bishop of Winchester (the Rt Revd Tim Dakin) over the suspension of the then Dean of Jersey (the Very Revd Bob Key) in March 2013 in relation to the handling of a safeguarding matter. The former Bishop of London, Lord Chartres, chaired the Commission assisted by two members (Sir Christopher Clarke & Lady Wilcox) and two consultants (Sir de Vic Carey from Guernsey and Mark Temple QC from Jersey). Since 2014 Bishop Trevor Willmott has by agreement being providing episcopal oversight for the Islands (with Islands parishes paying parish share to Canterbury in return for the provision of some common services), but it was recognised that this was not a permanent arrangement. Paragraphs 3-14 cover the historical background.

  • Faith Leaders' Open Letter to the Prime Minister
    http://interfaithrefugeeinitiative.org/ We are leaders from Britain’s major faiths: Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jain, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, Zoroastrian. All our faiths compel us to affirm the dignity of all human beings and to offer help to anyone in need. As people of faith, we call on your Government urgently to revise its policy towards refugees. The best of this country is represented by the generosity, kindness, solidarity and decency that Britain has at many times shown those fleeing persecution, even at times of far greater deprivation and difficulty than the present day. We rejoice in the mosaic of different faiths and British communities that we now represent. We are proud that in May 2016, in a survey by Amnesty International, 83% of Britons said they would welcome refugees into their neighbourhoods and households. In the face of the unfolding human catastrophe, there are immediate and viable steps that the Government can take to offer sanctuary to more refugees. We call on you to create safe, legal routes of travel, for example by adopting fair and humane family reunion policies for refugees. Under the present immigration rules, a British doctor of Syrian origin could not bring her parents from a refugee camp in Lebanon – even though they were refugees and she could support and house them. A Syrian child who arrived alone in the UK could not bring his parents from a refugee camp in Jordan – even if the child were recognised a refugee and even though his parents were themselves refugees. Families in these situations can currently be reunited only by resorting to desperately unsafe irregular journeys, sometimes ending in avoidable tragedies.
