Finding Our Voice for Jesus together THE VOICE OF CATHOLIC ANGLICANS EASTER 2020 Finding our Voice for Jesus Fr Harri Williams writes... ‘Crucify Him!

Bitterness and hardness of heart were seen in the We see anger through the behaviour of the religious response of the crowd to the pleading call of Pontius Pilate authorities.

For if we do not use our Emperor, which until that time they had loathed voice in the pursuit of holiness what are we to do and abhorred. So angry were they at Jesus that he with ourselves? Our vocation as Christians is to might give himself titles such as the Son of God, proclaim the good news of the Resurrection of that they were driven to ensuring his downfall at Jesus Christ and what it means for us, as those any cost. who have found life in its all fullness through faith in Him. Yet what was Jesus’ response to all this bitterness, rage and anger? Did he strike back? Did he argue To do that is challenging. The vulnerable, shy, passionately against the charges made against fearful side of our character may constantly fill our him? Did he sell out his principles in order that he hearts and minds with thoughts of rejection, or might be saved? No, he did not. Why? Because the desire not to upset anyone. Yet remaining Jesus hung upon the cross, to teach us that it is silent in the world which we inhabit, and which love, perfect love which conquers all. It is love Christ came to save, cannot surely be right? which enables forgiveness, reconciliation, and Amidst the horror of our world and tragedy of so compassion to occur despite the pain and agony many individuals’ lives, do we not believe that the which he endured. Gospel message of forgiveness, love and reconciliation has something to offer to our broken When life is difficult for us, when we find world? bitterness, rage and anger within ourselves, what will we do?

  • Our Lady of Ipswich: Devotion, Dissonance, and the Agitation of Memory at a Forgotten Pilgrimage Site As Accepted for Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by St Andrews Research Repository Our Lady of Ipswich: devotion, dissonance, and the agitation of memory at a forgotten pilgrimage site As accepted for Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute Richard D.G. Irvine Abstract: This article traces the social life of Our Lady of Ipswich, a statue taken to be destroyed during the English Reformation, and the possibility of pilgrimage in the context of dramatic urban change and loss of place memory. Arguing that iconoclasm is not an end-point, we see that the life of the image is not extinguished on the pyre, but is set into motion by conflict surrounding its significance, efficacy, and survival. Indeed, it is not simply the act of iconoclasm that animates the statue; rather, such agonistic animation is an ongoing process which involves both those who reject and those who are devoted to the image. My argument is that the potency of contemporary images of Our Lady of Ipswich relies on an active cultivation of dissonance: the consciousness of religious schism; the disjuncture between Ipswich’s historic importance and the perceived failures of twentieth-century development; and the juxtaposition between devotional pilgrimage destination and disenchanted shopping space. 0 Our Lady of Ipswich: devotion, dissonance, and the agitation of memory at a forgotten pilgrimage site Lady Lane In the county of Suffolk in the East of England, down a narrow passage at the end of one of Ipswich’s pedestrianised zones, stuck above head height on the brown brick wall of a former supermarket, is a bronze statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary cradling the infant Jesus on her knee.1 The statue marks the location of a shrine to Our Lady of Grace, closed in 1538 when church reformers took the statue of Mary from there to London to be burned.

Not only did the Movement’s proponents work for the renovation of parish life and call upon parochial clergy to ‘magnify their office,’ but there was also a remarkable process of church planting into the new urban areas which the established church was in danger of leaving behind. Motivated by a genuine, Gospel-rooted love for the poor and necessitated in part by the reluctance of Bishops to appoint Anglo-Catholics to more respectable parishes, great churches sprung up in the industrial conurbations, the mining

Page 4 York Minster was packed for the consecration of Father Philip North as Bishop of Burnley. The well orchestrated service was presided over by the Archbishop of York who delegated the consecration to the Bishop of Chichester who was assisted the Bishops of Beverley and Pontefract. The consecration heralded a new start for our constituency as we seek to engage with the invitation to flourish in the Church of England. Clergy and laity from across the constituency gathered to pray for Father North and there cannot have been a Catholic Society that wasn’t represented in some way Easter and few will forget the wonderful sight of Bishop North’s fellow Guardians of Services the Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham in the Minster nor the singing of ‘Sing we of the Blessed Mother’. see pages 11 -15 All in all this was a wonderful day completed with Pontifical Benediction at the parish of All Saints’ North Street. As Bishop North himself commented, Monday 2nd of February was the day on which the Church of England truly showed there was a future for those who seek in good conscience to hold to the traditional teachings of the church.

  • Parish Paper September 2020
    All Saints Parish Paper 7, MARGARET STREET, LONDON W1W 8JG asms.uk SEPTEMBER 2020 £1.00 THE ASSIstant PRIEST WRITES: In September we keep another feast of Our Lady, a later addition to the Calendar than the Assumption, but no less significant: Mary’s Nativity, celebrated on 8 September. Mary always points away from herself and towards her Son. Her significance is rightly tied to her son’s immeasurably greater significance and we sense that, like John the Baptist, she would happily declare, ‘He must increase and I must decrease’. So we honour Mary, the Mother of God, with an eye on her horizon. We look beyond her to her Son, to the Light of the World. But this is only part of the story. Saint Augustine of Hippo, who died in the year 430, wrote: The Church observes the birth of John [the Baptist] as a holy day; and none of the other great ones of old is solemnly commemorated in this way. We celebrate The Lady Altar John’s birth, as we celebrate Christ’s. Photograph: Andrew Prior (Sermon 293: 1 – 3) feast originated in Jerusalem, during the Augustine is reminding his listeners that 400s; it was celebrated in Constantinople by it was the customary practice for a saint to the year 500 and then, finally, in Rome by be remembered, not on the date on which the seventh century. he or she began his life in this world, but on the date on which the saint began life in Beginning to celebrate the Nativity of heaven.

  • This 2008 Letter
    The Most Reverend and Right Hon the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury & The Most Reverend and Right Hon the Lord Archbishop of York July, 2008 Most Reverend Fathers in God, We write as bishops, priests and deacons of the Provinces of Canterbury and York, who have sought, by God’s grace, in our various ministries, to celebrate the Sacraments and preach the Word faithfully; to form, nurture and catechise new Christians; to pastor the people of God entrusted to our care; and, through the work of our dioceses, parishes and institutions, to build up the Kingdom and to further God’s mission to the world in this land. Our theological convictions, grounded in obedience to Scripture and Tradition, and attentive to the need to discern the mind of the whole Church Catholic in matters touching on Faith and Order, lead us to doubt the sacramental ministry of those women ordained to the priesthood by the Church of England since 1994. Having said that, we have engaged with the life of the Church of England in a myriad of ways, nationally and locally, and have made sincere efforts to work courteously and carefully with those with whom we disagree. In the midst of this disagreement over Holy Order, we have, we believe, borne particular witness to the cause of Christian unity, and to the imperative of Our Lord’s command that ‘all may be one.’ We include those who have given many years service to the Church in the ordained ministry, and others who are very newly ordained. We believe that we demonstrate the vitality of the tradition which we represent and which has formed us in our discipleship and ministry – a tradition which, we believe, constitutes an essential and invaluable part of the life and character of the Church of England, without which it would be deeply impoverished.
