Cycle of Prayer
Cycle of Prayer 12 May - 07 September 2019 Diocese of Chester Key: C = Clergy LM = Licensed Lay Minister (Reader) (Pastoral Worker) (Youth Worker) Diocesan entries from the Anglican Cycle of Prayer are in italics. Chester Diocesan Board of Finance. Church House, 5500 Daresbury Park, Daresbury, Warrington WA4 4GE. Tel: 01928 718834 Chester Diocesan Board of Finance is a company limited by guarantee registered in England (no. 7826) Registered charity (no. 248968) Foreword There are many things that lend their rhythm to our prayer lives. The span of our life from birth to death and the Christian year from Christmas to Easter to Advent provide the most slowly developing rhythms. Week in and week out the pattern of the church’s Sunday worship provides another rhythm. This diary, on the other hand, is prepared to support the daily rhythm of our prayer; the heart-beat of faithful living. In our daily prayers we hold before our Heavenly Father the closest and most immediate concerns of life. In the Daily Prayer of Chester Cathedral this diary informs our intercessions set amidst the reading and singing of scripture. Here we weave together the cries of our hearts born out of our particular experience of life with the span of salvation history and the Good News of Jesus. We follow these pages, praying around God’s church in our diocese and our world-wide communion, as we begin and end every single day. We draw great encouragement in the knowledge that we do so with you. Tim Stratford, Dean. Welcome ‘Mercifully assist our prayers that we make before thee in all our troubles and adversities, whensoever they oppress us…’ Those ancient words from the Book of Common Prayer assume that intercession is an everyday and expected activity for every person.

To Open the Statement on Racism
Anglican Church of Canada Episcopal Statement June 8, 2020 The Anglican Church of Canada has committed itself to confronting racism in its own life and to acknowledging the place of racism and colonialism in our own nation. That commitment needs to be renewed daily. We have been horrified by the public murder of George Floyd. We are deeply distressed and profoundly disturbed by the images, rhetoric, violence, division, and chaos that has followed. We offer our prayerful support and solidarity with our sister church, the Episcopal Church, as it prays and guides its people while it simultaneously repents of, and protests the sin of racism. Our own house is not in order. Systemic racism exists in every part of Canada. The words of the Anglican Church of Canada’s 2004 Charter for Justice remind us: “The assumption of racial difference and inequality was the basis of much of Canada’s social legislation. For example, as a result of the Indian Act, First Nations people were confined to their reserves and their lands, and made susceptible to exploitation and take over. Immigration policies restricted Black, Asian and Jewish immigrants. Canadians of Japanese and Ukrainian descent were rounded up and interned during World War Two. Labour legislation dictated who could and couldn’t work for whom, and who could do what kind of work.”1 We repent of our complicity in the continuing structures of racism and oppression in our church and in our culture, for racism is not of Christ. It is sin. Every human being reflects the dignity of the very image of God.

Guaranteed Basic Income
A Public Letter On Guaranteed Basic Income The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau, P.C., M.P. Prime Minister of Canada Office of the Prime Minister 80 Wellington Street Ottawa, ON KIA 0A2 The Honourable Chrystia Freeland, P.C., M.P. Deputy Prime Minister Privy Council Office Room 1000 85 Sparks Street Ottawa, ON KIA 0A3 The Honourable Bill Morneau, P.C., M.P. Minister of Finance 90 Elgin Street, 17th Floor Ottawa, ON KIA 0G5 May 3, 2020 Dear Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister Morneau: Subject: COVID-19 Pandemic – Guaranteed Basic Income We write from across our country – from the tundra of the high Arctic, the out-ports of the Atlantic coast, from French and English speaking Canada, from urban to rural, the Prairies, the Rockies and coastal mountains and from the Pacific coast; we write as Indigenous people and as non-Indigenous. We write from across denominational traditions. As bishops of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada and the Anglican Church of Canada we write, compelled by our shared faith convictions and moral obligation to care for the human condition of all. Although we represent great diversity, we write to you because we are united, and morally bound in a singular message: Canada needs Guaranteed Basic Income for all. We need it today. We applaud the government for the various pandemic-related programs it has launched, including CERB. These programs address vital needs. As you have seen in practice, each of these programs is based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, with the result that there are different entitlements for individuals in varying circumstances.
