  • Calendar of Intercessions Michaelmas – Advent 2017
    Calendar of Intercessions Michaelmas – Advent 2017 to this edition of the prayer diary, following the Feast St Michael and All Angels until the first Sunday of Advent. There are now two Rochester cycles of prayer – ‘parishes’ and ‘extra- Welcome parochial’. This is an attempt to be a little more even handed with the additional groups who are prayed for as the year turns, and to include our church schools in our prayers. As usual, it’s a sizable document but designed to be quick and clear to read, and also to leave space for your own notes. Of course, you do not have to print it all out at once, and you’re welcome to reformat it, if you wish (a Word version is available from my blog, see website below). Sunday entries are designed to look at some of the bigger pictures in our Diocese – sometimes geographical (deaneries, archdeaconries, link dioceses) sometimes issues or activities (Vocations Sunday). If there is an aspect of diocesan life that you’d like included on a Sunday, do let me know. These are followed through the week by daily prayers from all over the diocese, and across the Anglican Communion, including the calendar of saints and other worthy people. Finally, there is space in the daily entries for you to note any prayer requests that have been made to you or your parish, or any special interests you want to remember in your prayers. Please contact me with any comments or suggestions – [email protected] or 01634 814439. I will also be pleased to provide large print copies to any who would find that helpful.

The Church is home to a great diversity of people who have a variety of opinions on these topics. The resources seek to engage with these differences and include a Pershore & Evesham Deanery 480-page book, a series of films and podcasts and a course amongst other things. Area Dean: Sarah Dangerfield As a diocese, we will be looking at Living in Love and Faith at Diocesan Synod next Saturday and parishes and deaneries are encouraged to reflect on how they Anglican Church in Central America: might also engage. Bishop Julio Murray Thompson Canterbury: Bishop John said: “As bishops, we recognise that there have been deep and painful Archbishop Justin Welby with divisions within the Church over questions of identity, sexuality, relationships and Bishops Rose Hudson-Wilkin (Dover), marriage, stretching back over many years, and that a new approach is now Jonathan Goodall (Ebbsfleet), needed. Those divisions are rooted in sincerely held beliefs about God’s will, but go Rod Thomas (Maidstone), to the heart of people’s lives and loves.

  • Holy Communion from the Reserved Sacrament
    29 November 2018 To all lay and ordained ministers holding the Bishop’s Licence or Permission to Officiate in the Diocese of Lichfield Holy Communion from the Reserved Sacrament Holy Communion is at the heart of our worshipping life together. It is an indispensable part of our Anglican worship, identity, and community. At the Communion table we are united as members in the Body of Christ. We are fed at Christ’s own table and sent out to be his body in a needy world. A regular pattern of receiving Holy Communion should, therefore, be part of the spiritual practice of all faithful Anglicans. However, we are aware that in some particular situations and churches a regular round of Holy Communion services is hard to maintain, usually due to a lack of availability of priests. The Church of England makes provision for this exceptional situation by providing a liturgy of Public Worship with Communion by Extension, which you can find online. This service assumes the existence of previously consecrated elements, which may then be distributed reverently and appropriately by authorised persons. We are writing this letter, and have written the attached guidelines, to make clear the circumstances under which you may use this liturgy in our Diocese, recognising also that some will not want to avail themselves of this for theological reasons. We hope that these guidelines are self- explanatory and that they will assist you to use this service appropriately as and where necessary. We would wish to draw out and highlight the following points: 1. This service is intended as a means of facilitating regular reception of Holy Communion.

  • Religion, Science, and Colonialism in the Anglican Communion John
    Religion, Science, and Colonialism in the Anglican Communion John Albert Hall lecture University of Victoria, B.C., Center for Studies in Religion and Society, 5 pm 26 January 2017 Abstract: The Anglican Communion is the historic product of colonial expansion, driven by both religious fervor and economic desire. Justification for the colonial endeavor was often based in both religious and contemporary scientific understandings. This address will attempt to explore how different ways of knowing – particularly the varieties of religion and science – have influenced the development of the Anglican Communion and how they continue to shape our missional partnerships and engagement. We’ll examine parallels in method (including error and misuse) in each way of knowing, noting both historical examples and contemporary opportunities for creative interchange. Let’s start with the centerpiece of this topic – colonialism. The word derives from the Latin (colere) “to cultivate or inhabit or tend.” A colony was an outpost of the Roman Empire or a landed estate. The word’s more ancient PIE root (kwel), meant1 to move around or dwell, and produced words like wheel and cycle as well as culture and cult.2 Colonialism in modern usage is the desire to plant one’s own culture (and often, one’s own cult or religion) in a different land. In other species colonization is a reproductive mechanism – planting cells in new hosts or geographic locations. We might use a generic definition of colonizing as ‘sending out one’s life forms to grow and establish themselves in a new environment.’ That’s the antithesis of Star Trek’s Prime Directive, but it seems to be pretty central to the course of human history and much of evolutionary biology.

  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2021
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2021 The Porvoo Declaration commits the churches which have signed it ‘to share a common life’ and ‘to pray for and with one another’. An important way of doing this is to pray through the year for the Porvoo churches and their Dioceses. The Prayer Diary is a list of Porvoo Communion Dioceses or churches covering each Sunday of the year, mindful of the many calls upon compilers of intercessions, and the environmental and production costs of printing a more elaborate list. Those using the calendar are invited to choose one day each week on which they will pray for the Porvoo churches. It is hoped that individuals and parishes, cathedrals and religious orders will make use of the Calendar in their own cycle of prayer week by week. In addition to the churches which have approved the Porvoo Declaration, we continue to pray for churches with observer status. Observers attend all the meetings held under the Agreement. The Calendar may be freely copied or emailed for wider circulation. The Prayer Diary is updated once a year.
