NOTICES The Chair highlighted the following points on the day paper: • A proposed motion from Braintree Deanery Synod, which members were being asked to confirm whether they support. • A reminder that the meeting was being livestreamed. • A reminder that elections to the Diocesan and General Synod would take place later in the year and that the June Synod meeting will be the final one in this triennium. • A reminder on the use of the chat function.

The text and video of the address can be downloaded here: https://www.chelmsford.anglican.org/news/article/diocesan-synod-20-march-2021- presidential-address-by-the-rt-revd-peter-hill 5. RACIAL JUSTICE TASK AND FINISH GROUP UPDATE The Chair invited the Bishop of Colchester to address the Synod. 1 The Bishop of Colchester explained that the Church of England has created many reports and recommendations in regard to racial justice. The sad truth is many of them have not be enacted and we do not want this to happen with the set of recommendations which will be put to this Synod. He also highlighted the message from the new Bishop of Chelmsford supporting the work of the Racial Justice Task and Finish Group. The Chair invited questions from members. The following members asked questions: Archdeacon of Harlow Revd Martin Bailey (Havering) Revd James Rodley (Harlow) Revd Helen Gheorghiu Gould (Harlow) Canon Vevet Deer (Waltham Forest) Ursula Davies (Newham) The questions and, where applicable, answers were as follows: • Have there been any conversation with local councils and the wider society? If we don’t do this we may end up acting in a silo. The Bishop of Colchester clarified that a member of staff of Essex County Council had been a member of the group but had to step down. The Bishop of Colchester also confirmed that he is in touch with numerous local authority contacts which will continue. We also have our link with Citizens UK which allows opportunities for wider collaboration. • How is the term ‘systemic racism’ defined, is it focused on the Church or the wider society? The Bishop of Colchester explained that he wished to keep the definition as broad as possible as we don’t want to miss anything. • Has the question of such a quota for BAME clergy been discussed in the task group? How would this impact on the wider plan for reduction of clergy numbers? The Bishop of Colchester confirmed there is no quota but we need to ask ourselves whether we reflect the diversity present in the Diocese. • Are there some things which we can move forward on now rather than wait so we harness the energy? The Bishop of Colchester confirmed that we have the timescale as we want to work with the national group and with the new Bishop of Chelmsford. There is no reason why we can’t expand unconscious bias training. In terms of monuments the Bishop encouraged members to use them as an opportunity for teaching and redemption. • One member commented that they wish to see more of an outcome in the Diocese and improvement of diversity. In terms of appointments, we should appoint people who are capable not set them up to fail. • Do we have equal opportunities monitoring group? The Bishop of Colchester explained that there is a sub group of the Racial Justice Task and Finish Group looking at this very issue. 2 6. UPDATE ON CLERGY DEPLOYMENT MOTION The Chair invited Bishop Peter to give an update on the progress made in respect of the clergy deployment motion passed at the previous Synod. The Bishop reported the following: • The recently circulated Ad Clerum had given information on this. • Some Deaneries have achieved their target with others making good progress. We will have made significant savings by the end of the year. • However, the scale of the task and the length of the lockdown had made it apparent that the consultation plan was too ambitious. Therefore, some flexibility has been allowed on the analysis now scheduled for completion in June, rather than by Easter as originally agreed. The Chair then gave members an opportunity to ask questions on this update. The following members asked questions: Revd James Rodley (Harlow) Gordon Simmonds (Rochford) Revd Chris Wragg (Havering) Ursula Davies (Newham) The following questions were asked: • Of the 61 posts to be reduced how many of them currently have someone in post? The Bishop of Barking confirmed that he did not have that information to hand however it will be communicated to the member asking the question as soon as possible. • How many deaneries are expected to fall short and when will they be sorted? The Bishop of Barking explained that three archdeaconries had completed their work, four still have work to do, one of those having a considerable amount of work to do. • Can we convey the process in writing rather than verbally? The Bishop of Barking confirmed that some clergy have received confirmation in writing. • How are we going to inform people as to what the plan will be? The Bishop of Barking explained that the task is partially completed by the Archdeacon, Area Dean and Lay Chair. However, there will come a point where the parish priest and lay leaders will need to communicate to individual members of the congregation. 7. INTERIM MINISTRY REPORT The Chair invited the Revd Helen Gheorghiu Gould, the Interim Ministry and Vacancy Adviser, to address the Synod. She began by thanking the Diocese for supporting this vocation and made the following points: • Interim Ministry is an extension of the process of creation and recreation. 3 • It is a process which creates space to consider what should happen next and experiment without the feeling of failure. It may also involve a ministry of healing and reconciliation.

Gamble's request that I would write this Foreword are (1) that I was a very unworthy successor of \Villiam Bedell, the greatest, most saintly and learned of the long line of Bishops of Kilmore; (2) that I have, I think, read all the lives of Bedell which have been published; and (3) that his example was the greatest inspiration in my work in the diocese for which he laboured so heroically, and where his influence abides. How remarkably the example he set of what a Bishop's life and work should be has been an inspiration to his successors may be illustrated by the reverence in which Alfred George Elliott, Bishop of Kilmore from 1897- 1913, held the memory of \Villiam Bedell. He paid his great predecessor a tribute which was deeper than hero worship. Symbolic of this reverence and admiration was his determination to be buried as Pear tu the grave of \Vi!liam Bedell as authority would permit. The life of Bishop Elliott is another tale worth telling by a competent historian. I am glad that Dr. Gamble's Life of \Villiam Bedell is to be published, and I trust that it will bring inspir­ ation to many readers.

  • BISHOP's BULLETIN No 32 to the Licensed Clergy of Peterborough
    BISHOP’S BULLETIN No 32 To the Licensed Clergy of Peterborough Diocese 20 December 2020 Dear friends A Sunday bulletin, and a bumper one. These are the times we live in. Under Tier 4 for Peterborough, and Tier 2 for the rest of the diocese, with the Christmas permissions either removed or greatly curtailed, many of us and our people will be on our own or nearly so at Christmas. Then comes the post-Christmas break. For parish clergy, the perennial problem of time off at home, that is, time off in our primary place of work, seems insoluble. Let’s commit to pray for each other – perhaps particularly for those in your neighbouring parishes and in your deanery – that we will find real relaxation and refreshment after Christmas, whatever our context and situation. That is my prayer for you. Thank you for many kind Christmas cards and messages. It is good to be cared and prayed for – and to be made aware of that. This diocese gives great joy to me. Tiers (and Peals) of Christmas Joy I wrote recently about permissions for bellringing. Belay that. No ringing can be permitted in Tier 4, and in Tier 2 it must now be restricted to Christmas Day only, and under the conditions I described last week. People are asking about Christmas services, particularly in Tier 4, but also with the tightened restrictions for Tier 2. The rules for public worship remain unchanged, even in Tier 4, but the context and culture have changed very markedly with the new more infectious and faster spreading variant of the virus.

  • 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.

  • PARISH MAGAZINE MARCH 2 0 2 0 50P What the Ipswich Road Roundabout Can Teach Us About Lent
    ORDINARY PEOPLE. EXT RAORDINARY GOD. PARISH MAGAZINE MARCH 2 0 2 0 50p What the Ipswich Road roundabout can teach us about Lent For those who need to travel regularly around the Ipswich Road rounda- bout, the (I’m assured) impending completion of the roadworks must be a cause for celebration. When there are distractions, obstacles, and frus- trations making our daily lives more difficult, it’s easy (and quite natural) to become obsessed, dejected, angry - or all three! At the heart of Lent is the idea that – unlike the Ipswich Road roadworks – we have it within ourselves to remove some of the distractions, obsta- cles and frustrations in our lives that get between us and God’s love for us. Actually, that’s not quite right: we don’t do this ourselves – through our own power alone – but by asking for God’s assistance. And making that prayer for God’s help is itself part of the solution. We follow in a very long tradition of people asking God for assistance! “Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud, be gracious to me and answer me!” “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” Instead of trying to remove those things which distract us from, or ob- struct, God’s love by obsessing about them and allowing them to loom ever larger, we should bring them to God and accept his help. When we do this, we turn our face to God, we reach out to God: we repent! So maybe the real danger each Lent isn’t the obstructions and distrac- tions in themselves, but thinking we can deal with them without God, rather than reaching out for God? When we reach out, we avoid the temptation to treat self-denial as if it is some ‘holy’ act of self-harm (which God never wants for us).
