  • Bounding Around the Foundry We Find the Foundry Fascinating, and See Our Bells in Progress
    Christ Church Link November 2014 l New series Number 31 l 50p where sold Bounding around the foundry We find the foundry fascinating, and see our bells in progress On Thursday 9 October, a party of 25 of us from Christ Church enjoyed a tour of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry. We saw how bells are cast (in moulds made of clay, sand, goat hair and horse dung!) and tuned (by having metal shaved out of them on a big turntable). Our new bells are arriving on Monday 8 December, and will be dedicated on Sunday 21 December by Bishop Peter Hancock, who will be presiding on that day instead of our patronal festival on 23 November as originally scheduled. Glimpses of our visit to Whitechapel Bell Foundry. The two bells in the foreground of the picture above are two of our new bells, still to be tuned. Improving access Mothers’ Union news Sylvia Ayers writes: Have YOU bought your MU Christmas Cards yet?? A colourful poster depicting them all is on the MU noticeboard, and, as with all good things, the early bird catches the worm. As usual, the cards come in packs of 10, so late ordering or a shortage of supplies may result in you missing out on a favourite choice. Do let Sylvia have your “cash with order” now if you would like to take advantage of our seasonal offer. Both Canon Angela and Margaret would like to thank everyone for their support at the MU Indoor Members’ Communion Service on October 17th, which ranged from welcoming our visitors to serving the refreshments, a task at which Angela (Verger) is particularly good! Both this and the meeting with our World-Wide President Lynn Temby at Monkton Combe School on 22nd, are very important events in the MU Calendar, so we thank everyone for their attendance and interest.

  • Advent Calendars
    What is Advent? Advent is the start of the Christian year. It is a time for Christians to prepare for the celebration of the birth of Jesus. It is also a time for Christians to look forward to a time when Jesus will come again. The word ‘Advent’ comes from a very old word ‘Adventus’ which means the arrival of something or someone important. When is Advent? Advent is the four weeks before Christmas. It starts on the nearest Sunday to November 30th. Advent lasts until midnight on Christmas Eve. Advent is a time for Christians to enjoy time with their families and friends. It began in Germany over 250 years ago. How is Advent Celebrated? Churches display an Advent There are four candles crown or Advent wreath standing in the circle.

  • Railway and Canal Historical Society Early Railway Group
    RAILWAY AND CANAL HISTORICAL SOCIETY EARLY RAILWAY GROUP Occasional Paper 251 BENJAMIN HALL’S TRAMROADS AND THE PROMOTION OF CHAPMAN’S LOCOMOTIVE PATENT Stephen Rowson, with comment from Andy Guy Stephen Rowson writes - Some year ago I had access to some correspondence originally in the Llanover Estate papers and made this note from within a letter by Benjamin Hall to his agent John Llewellin, dated 7 March 1815: Chapman the Engineer called on me today. He says one of their Engines will cost about £400 & 30 G[uinea]s per year for his Patent. He gave a bad account of the Collieries at Newcastle, that they do not clear 5 per cent. My original thoughts were of Chapman looking for business by hawking a working model of his locomotive around the tramroads of south Wales until I realised that Hall wrote the letter from London. So one assumes the meeting with William Chapman had taken place in the city rather than at Hall’s residence in Monmouthshire. No evidence has been found that any locomotive ran on Hall’s Road until many years later after it had been converted from a horse-reliant tramroad. Did any of Chapman’s locomotives work on south Wales’ tramroads? __________________________________ Andy Guy comments – This is a most interesting discovery which raises a number of issues. In 1801, Benjamin Hall, M.P. (1778-1817) married Charlotte, daughter of the owner of Cyfarthfa ironworks, Richard Crawshay, and was to gain very considerable industrial interests from his father- in-law.1 Hall’s agent, John Llewellin, is now better known now for his association with the Trevithick design for the Tram Engine, the earliest surviving image of a railway locomotive.2 1 Benjamin Hall was the son of Dr Benjamin Hall (1742–1825) Chancellor of the diocese of Llandaff, and father of Sir Benjamin Hall (1802-1867), industrialist and politician, supposedly the origin of the nickname ‘Big Ben’ for Parliament’s clock tower (his father was known as ‘Slender Ben’ in Westminster).

    TOWARDS AN ASSESSMENT OF FRESH EXPRESSIONS OF CHURCH IN ACSA (THE ANGLICAN CHURCH OF SOUTHERN AFRICA) THROUGH AN ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY OF THE COMMUNITY SUPPER AT ST PETER’S CHURCH IN MOWBRAY, CAPE TOWN REVD BENJAMIN JAMES ALDOUS DISSERTATION PRESENTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTORAL PHILOSOPHY IN THEOLOGY (PRACTICAL THEOLOGY) IN THE FACULTY OF THEOLOGY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF STELLENBOSCH APRIL 2019 SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR IAN NELL Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: April 2019 Copyright © 2019 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved ii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT Fresh Expressions of Church is a growing mission shaped response to the decline of mainline churches in the West. Academic reflection on the Fresh Expressions movement in the UK and the global North has begun to flourish. No such reflection, of any scope, exists in the South African context. This research asks if the Fresh Expressions of Church movement is an appropriate response to decline and church planting initiatives in the Anglican Church in South Africa. It also seeks to ask what an authentic contextual Fresh Expression of Church might look like. Are existing Fresh Expression of Church authentic responses to church planting in a postcolonial and post-Apartheid terrain? Following the work of the ecclesiology and ethnography network the author presents an ethnographic study of The Community Supper at St Peter’s Mowbray, Cape Town.

Good wishes from Ettrick and Yarrow locum minister Jim Wallace “A child is born to us! A son is given to us! And he will be our ruler. He will be called, “Wonderful Counsellor”, “Mighty God”, “Eternal Father”, “Prince of Peace.” So Isaiah, in an age of deep uncertainty and trouble in the land, brings to his people a promise from God to gladden their hearts, reassure them and point them to the Eternal Love of the One who holds them in his hands. It is a message that has inspired generations in similar circumstances and offered hope during the darkest times of history and, of course, it is one that came true when God sent His only Son, Jesus to be born in Bethlehem. At the beginning of this Advent Season, with all the uncertainty and trouble around us today, that message is as fresh and vital as ever. In our national life, on our local issues and in our family crises we often don’t know to whom we can turn for help.
