    February 11 ! CNI Belfast Cathedral girl chorister records at St Paul’s ! Tania Murphy, a member of the Cathedral Girls’ Choir, has recently returned to St Paul’s Cathedral, London, to record a CD with St Paul's Cathedral Choir and choristers from other UK cathedrals. The Diamond Fund for Choristers CD will be released on March 17. This Fund was launched last April at a concert in St Paul’s to mark the Friends of Cathedral Music’s diamond jubilee. The concert brought together choristers [email protected] Page !1 February 11 representing 60 cathedrals along with the choir of St Paul’s for the first time ever Tania was selected by St Anne’s Master of the Choristers David Stevens to represent the Cathedral at the concert in St Paul’s on April 27 last year. The concert was presented by Classic FM’s Aled Jones and Alexander Armstrong, and held in the presence of HRH The Duchess of Gloucester. After her visit to St Paul’s, Tania said she had formed new friendships with choristers from different parts of the country who shared the same interests, and described it as ‘definitely an experience which I will never forget!’ Tania has sung with the St Anne’s Choir for almost four years. “I love being a chorister of St Anne's Cathedral as I have always been intrigued by the concept of choral music and the resonating sound of the music in such a big cathedral as St Anne's,” she said. “Being a chorister has given me so many opportunities such as singing in Puccini's opera Turandot, singing with the St Anne's choir on a tour of Paris, and of course this wonderful opportunity of being able to sing in St Paul's Cathedral, London.” [email protected] Page !2 February 11 !

The attribution to David I of the establishment of most of the Scottish episcopal sees has, if only through repetition, become a convention. Yet, while historians have bee generan ni l agreement about David's work, they have differed profoundly as to the details.

  • Diocese in Europe Prayer Diary, July to December 2011
    DIOCESE IN EUROPE PRAYER DIARY, JULY TO DECEMBER 2011 This calendar has been compiled to help us to pray together for one another and for our common concerns. Each chaplaincy, with the communities it serves, is remembered in prayer once a year, according to the following pattern: Eastern Archdeaconry - January, February Archdeaconry of France - March, April Archdeaconry of Gibraltar - May, June Diocesan Staff - July Italy & Malta Archdeaconry - July Archdeaconry of North West Europe - August, September Archdeaconry of Germany and Northern Europe Nordic and Baltic Deanery - September, October Germany - November Swiss Archdeaconry - November, December Each Archdeaconry, with its Archdeacon, is remembered on a Sunday. On the other Sundays, we pray for subjects which affect all of us (e.g. reconciliation, on Remembrance Sunday), or which have local applications for most of us (e.g. the local cathedral or cathedrals). Some chaplains might like to include prayers for the other chaplaincies in their deanery. We also include the Anglican Cycle of Prayer (daily, www.aco.org), the World Council of Churches prayer cycle (weekly, www.oikoumene.org, prayer resources on site), the Porvoo Cycle (weekly, www.porvoochurches.org), and festivals and commemorations from the Common Worship Lectionary (www.churchofengland.org/prayer-worship/worship/texts.aspx). Sundays and Festivals, printed in bold type, have special readings in the Common Worship Lectionary. Lesser Festivals, printed in normal type, have collects in the Common Worship Lectionary. Commemorations, printed in italics, may have collects in Exciting Holiness, and additional, non- biblical, readings for all of these may be found in Celebrating the Saints (both SCM-Canterbury Press).

The collect (in this context) is the short opening prayer of the Eucharist proper to every Sunday and Holy Day, and the new set of prayers was the result of several years’ work by the Liturgy Committee.1 The Liturgy Committee’s starting point for the collects for Sundays and Principal Holy Days was the series of Latin prayers preserved in the Temporale of the Sarum Missal and which have their origin in the ancient Roman sacramentaries. The Sarum Missal is the service book that was (strangely enough) used throughout Scotland before the Reformation, having first been established in the Scottish kingdom at Glasgow by Bishop Herbert (1147–1164).2 From the Sarum Missal it was also that Thomas Cranmer derived The work for this essay was carried out during the summer of 2015 in the Special Collections of St Andrews University Library, and the University of Dundee Archives.
