Bishop Norman Banks shares with us the thinking behind his initiative to share in the Catholic Church’s Year of Mercy 2016.

Bishop Norman, what inspired you to embrace Pope Francis’ call for a Year of Mercy? In the first instance we’re looking to build on the fruits that came from our celebrating Pope Benedict’s Year of Faith across the See of Richborough back in 2013, but we’re also glad to be sharing in a world-wide celebration across denominations that seeks to consciously rekindle a desire in us all to share the good news of the inexhaustible mercy of God as revealed in his Son Jesus Christ.

What form will these celebrations take? There will be an opportunity for Christians to come together at various Cathedrals across the Church of England, to celebrate the Eucharist and in the breaking of bread to know love of Christ as the fount of God’s love and mercy. We hope that these events will be an opportunity for Anglicans to celebrate with the wider Church the initiatives for mercy encouraged by Pope Francis. There will be a sung Mass followed by a bring-your-own picnic lunch then an informal Bible-study led by the Bishop exploring the theme of mercy in the New Testament. We hope that Priests and Parishes will make a conscious decision to attend these events and to embrace this initiative, confident in the knowledge that God promises that all who call upon his name in Christ will know mercy, forgiveness and love.

And how can we prepare as individuals and Parishes for this jubilee year and forthcoming events? As with the Year of Faith, we’ll be launching the Year of Mercy by offering everyone a special prayer card so that we can be united in spirit as we prepare to gather for these regional events. There will be Year of Mercy wristbands and we will also have available enamelled Year of Mercy lapel badges, approved by the international Year Year of Mercy Lapel Pins of Mercy Office, which will be available in sets of twenty at £40 per set from Fr Jesuit Father Marko I.

We’ll also be Rino Fisichella, President of the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New planning a Year of Mercy Conference for recently ordained Priests and Deacons from Evangelisation in Rome. In response to a request to use the logo for a series of lapel the Society to help them to fulfil their vocation as agents of God’s mercy and grace pins, and ‘in a spirit of ecumenical fraternity’, the Archbishop has granted permission through pastoral care and the administration of the Sacraments. for the logo’s use as part of an Anglican fundraising effort to further the Jubilee aim of showing and sharing the merciful love of God.

My 'partner' gave a fantastically amusing, yet deeply meaningful, answer to the question 'If you met Jesus and had only one question to ask him what would it be?', which was 'why did you not give explicit instructions for the Eucharist?!'. Similarly amusing answers to different questions were given by all! This was followed by a session on Later in the same evening we had a session on the selection criteria used at parish ministry from Fr Mark North and BAPs from the Revd Liz Boughton, a Selections Secretary. Her 'inside story' Fr James Mowbray. What a wonderful was reassuring and had the 'human touch'. Revd Liz explained that her role example of comparing and contrasting was to see BAPs went smoothly and two ministries with different challenges to act as a 'moderator' when the in parishes with very different needs. selectors were making their deliberations. Revd Liz explained Saturday afternoon we had the that that included making sure opportunity to have individual that there was no bias in the 'discussions' as follows: Confession (Father Darren); Selection Criteria (Revd selection process, including on Liz); Life of a Married Priest (Fr Mark North); Episcopal Conversation (Bishop the grounds of churchmanship!

As it At the time I felt the call, I was living a life that was very much a party life the typical ‘sex, happened the first church I went drugs and rock and roll’. I was living very much for myself, not a bad person, but not exactly into was a Roman Catholic that great either. I was having a great time, loving what I was doing, and enjoying the Church, and it was there at my bohemian life style I had. However, deep down I felt something was missing.

I had found my faith. before this time, but I hadn’t had the power to see them. My journey didn’t end there, however. After this initial high came a deep and long process It was after a performance of a quite dark and challenging production that I found myself of discernment. I became a pilgrim on the road of faith. Now that I had it I wanted to leaving the theatre quickly after the curtain came down. I headed out into the night, not understand it, and I needed to discover why God had called me out. This was a journey taking the usual route to partake in the after show drinking in the local pub. I had a strange both in a literally sense of becoming a pilgrim, venturing to Santiago di Compostela, as well feeling, a feeling that there was something more than what I had, and that I needed to find as to the Holy Land, to try and make sense of what it was to be a Christian and follow it, whatever it may be. Jesus. And also in my own spiritual journey and prayer life, taking time to move closer to God through prayer, contemplation and by going on retreat. I found myself following a path beside a river which wound along a bank of trees up to a quiet spot just outside of town. The path led to a church. I wasn’t sure how or why, but it More recently, after a few years of discovering, I have begun to pray and ask God what he felt as I had been drawn here, that I was being called to this place. I wasn’t sure if it would may want of me, and if I had anything to offer that he may use to serve his church. It may even be open, but as I moved towards the old medieval door, I found that it was, and more well be the case that I am through living my life, and in my work, serving God, telling others than this, there were people inside. about my journey of faith. But I was curious to know if this call was a call to vocation, and if I had the possible gifts to serve God in Christian ministry as a priest. I was unsure, but still The church was lit up inside with candles, and there was a reading taking place. I took a felt compelled to trust that God had something in store for me, and that I needed to take seat at the back of an aisle and listened.

The full communion of the Church involves communion between communities that celebrate the Eucharist, with teaching and ministry that can be recognized as catholic and apostolic. It is the ministry of a bishop that unites these eucharistic n, communities in full communion with each other and with churches headed by other Communio bishops – in the Church of England and the wider Church. Parishes, clergy and people are in full communion with their bishop when they can receive the Catholicity and a sacramental ministry of all those whom their bishop ordains. Where this is not the case – because bishops ordain those whom we cannot recognize as standing within the historic succession of apostolic ministry as it is held atholic Life within the ancient churches of East and West – communion is no longer full. There is C ouncil still a degree of communion, flowing from our common baptism, but that communion Statements by the C is diminished. There is a tear in the fabric of our communion, but it is not torn apart. Society of Bishops of The As catholic Christians, we are called to, and need, a life of full communion. This is why our parishes pass resolutions that bring them the sacramental ministry and pastoral care (oversight) of a bishop with whom they are in full communion. The Society is a structure of full communion which unites the bishops that oversee these parishes and thus unites the parishes. In The Society, the bishops commend priests whose ministry all can receive with confidence.

It is important to be clear about what we are not saying when we request a bishop with whom we are in full communion.

 We are not saying that we are ‘out of communion’ with the Church of England or with its other bishops, just that, as the Church of England itself recognizes in the Five Guiding Principles, that communion is now less than ‘full’.  We are not saying that we want no part in the wider life of the Church of England, in our deanery and diocese and nationally, or want to have nothing to do with the diocesan bishop.  We are not saying that when a male bishop ordains a woman his ministry is ‘tainted’, that ordaining a woman makes him no longer a bishop or that the men he ordains are not priests.  We are not saying that we need a bishop with whom we agree about everything.

We just want what all the Church of England’s other parishes have – a bishop with whom we are in full communion because we can receive the ministry of all whom that bishop ordains. Similarly, our ordinands want to be ordained by a bishop with whom they are in full communion. This is particularly important in the case of ordination to the priesthood and the episcopate.

What does this theology of communion and full communion mean for receiving Holy Colin Podmore looks at the bishops’ statements and leaflet Communion? Our bishops are clear that normally Holy Communion is received in a context of full communion. For us, this will mean receiving communion in parishes that are affiliated to The Society or at celebrations of the Eucharist at which Bishops  Now that there are women bishops, how do The Society’s parishes and people and Priests of The Society preside. But the bishops also recognize that there can be relate to the rest of the Church of England? occasions when it is appropriate (though none should be compelled) to receive  Why do we need the ministry of bishops who don’t ordain women as bishops communion from other male bishops and priests who have been validly ordained (ie and priests? by male bishops who stand in a succession of bishops at whose episcopal ordination  What are the implications for ordinations, and for receiving Holy Communion? a male bishop presided).

Such questions prompted the Council of Forward in Faith to ask the Council of The decision as to whether to receive communion from such bishops and priests Bishops of The Society for teaching and pastoral guidance. They responded with two must be one for the person concerned, as a matter of conscience.

You and I might give to those worse placed than ourselves. all the trimmings of a Dickensian Christmas hold few horrors for me. God takes the place of those who are, as it were, at the bottom of the Long ago, when the Church wanted a time to celebrate the Lord's pile. Jesus is born in a stable. Jesus will eventualy hang on a cross birthday, it chose that time of year in Europe when the darkest time of with the most despised of all, two wicked criminals. God has an affinity the year had reached its peak. Now, at last, things were beginning to both for the poor and for those who make the biggest mess of their change. The pagans had a festival to mark the worst of the dark winter lives. Christmas spurs us on in our concern to show that same generous being over. What better time for Christians to keep Christ's birthday? love to others. We have a concern for the poor and the outcast because Christmas Day entered our calendar as the day of marking Jesus' birth. Jesus has exactly that for each of us.

Centuries on it can seem that we are back where we started. Many folk Then, as you and I think about the love of God shown in Christmastide, once more enjoy a jolly mid-winter festival, now augmented by customs we can see something of the wonder of what it is to be human beings. for marking Christ's birthday that have grown up across the years but Those around us so often take human life for granted. In a world of seemingly as devoid of true Christian content as were the celebrations wars, terrorism, people-trafficking and muggings it is all too easy not to of our pagan forefathers. It is, though, all too easy to be selfrighteous. expect much of human beings. In Bethlehem's crib God assumes the Our Lord, after all, seems to have been all too ready on occasion to join life of a human being. God could never speak to you and me through in parties with those whose outlook was in so many ways different from Jesus unless it were possible to use human life for something good. It His own. He even got into trouble for it. Jesus' condemnation of the rich would be something like trying to talk in Chinese to people who could man, Dives, was not that he partied but that he did so every day. This only speak German. God can convey something of His love through year, as ever, I will again be seeking to enter into the Christmas spirit human life. We should treasure, therefore, the life God has given each with all around me and not retreating into a self-righteous religious of us and see it for the precious gift it is. And that is only part of the ghetto. What is more, even within our society's increasingly secular story. Once Jesus has taken our human life then each of us can know marking of Christmas there is still, for some, the carol singing, the cribs that, in so far as we share His life, we can share in the life of heaven, of and the nativity plays. The Pope's Christmas tree is displayed in St. God Himself. There is something to raise us out of our short-sighted Peter's Square a fortnight before Christmas, hinting of its Christian view of what it means to be human. With God sharing our lives, this significance. If we want to spread something of the true meaning of world can be made utterly different. Christmas then you and I want to be building on these Christian vestiges for all we are worth. The Bible talks of Jesus being the yeast that makes the bread rise rather than remain flat. That is what Jesus comes to do. That is the Christmas, though, is exciting for me for much more than the wonder of Christmas. That, surely, is a reason for unashamed delight in razzmatazz.

Course available from www.additionalcurates.co.uk It came upon the midnight clear, Meditations That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth, To touch their harps of gold: ‘Peace on the earth, goodwill to men, on a Hymn From heaven's all-gracious King!’ The world in solemn stillness lay, How disappointed I usually am when, having To hear the angels sing. chosen this hymn for the Offertory at Midnight Mass, it fails to be as enthusiastically sung as I would want it to be! Still through the cloven skies they come, It is a hymn I love and I love the tune to which we normally sing With peaceful wings unfurled, it in this country Noel, a traditional English melody adapted and And still their heavenly music floats extended by Sir Arthur Sullivan. The words come from a strange O'er all the weary world; American stable (no pun intended), having been penned by Above its sad and lowly plains, They bend on hovering wing, Edmund Sears who, though a Unitarian minister, accepted the And ever o'er its Babel sounds divinity of Christ. The hymn appeared in 1850 at a time of The blessèd angels sing. upheaval and unrest following European revolutions, Chartism in Britain, and war between the United States and Mexico. Sears’ Yet with the woes of sin and strife personal melancholy runs through the hymn, portraying the world as The world has suffered long; full of “sin and strife” and being deaf to the Christian message. Indeed, Beneath the angel-strain have rolled Two thousand years of wrong; he apparently sets his focus not on the place of Christ’s birth but on And man, at war with man, hears not these problems of his own age and on theme of war and peace. These The love-song which they bring; come through verses 2-3, and particularly in verse 4 with the picture of O hush the noise, ye men of strife, men toiling “beneath life’s crushing load” and which is perhaps why this And hear the angels sing! verse is often omitted.

And ye, beneath life's crushing load, As with so many Christmas hymns, we are invited to enter into the song of the Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way angels, the emphasis being on their message of peace and goodwill. But what With painful steps and slow, they share with us is a true love-song. Indeed, the hymn suggests that the angelic Look now! for glad and golden hours song has continued since the Lord’s birth, but it has been drowned out by all those come swiftly on the wing. years of wrong. Only when peace comes to the world, and the strife is o’er, and the O rest beside the weary road, discordant Babel sounds are stilled, will humanity join in this heavenly chorus. However, And hear the angels sing! once, particularly, did the world stop to listen to hear the song of the angels: it was on “the midnight clear” and there was a unique stillness created when heaven was joined to earth by the gift For lo! the days are hastening on, By prophet bards foretold, of “heaven’s all gracious King.” That gift is not really named, but it is more than the gift of peace, When, with the ever-circling years, and more than one of goodwill. The gift is one of love, a love wholly embodied in the infant Christ, Comes round the age of gold the Son of God, by whose birth into the world of men begins that age of gold. As we prepare for When peace shall over all the earth Christmas, we ask God to change the poverty of our nature by the riches of his grace in this holy Its ancient splendours fling, birth, so that we may ever be changed from glory to glory. And the whole world give back the song Which now the angels sing. 12 Together WINTER 2015 THE CATHOLIC VOICE OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND

Being a devout Jew the Passover and the Sabbath would have been significant days for Christ and his disciples. It was of course on the night before he was betrayed at the Feast of the Passover that Jesus took the bread, said the The Eucharist blessing, broke the bread and gave it to his disciples with the powerful words “This is my body, this is my blood, given and shared for you. Do this to remember me.” The words above from John 21 also remind us that it was at a different meal that would have been to the disciples reminiscent of the Last Supper that Jesus’ resurrection presence was felt. And now for over 2000 years Christians have met in Jesus said to them catacombs, homes, churches, Cathedrals, almost anywhere, to do as Jesus taught. To take, bless, break and receive, to remember Christ and feed on him, not as someone who lived thousands of years ago but “Come and have someone who is alive and present now and giving himself to us as he breakfast”. gave himself to them. The Catholic understanding of the Eucharist challenges us to know the Lord in this meal, to look beyond the outward exterior of bread and wine Now none of the and to experience the inner reality of the real presence of Christ. Theologians use complicated names and titles, such as Transubstantiation and Consubstantiation but for the majority of Catholic disciples dare to ask Christians we rely not on complicated names and phrases but on the inner experience and knowledge that it is the Lord. They often say, do they not, that children are much better at understanding and expressing him “Who are you” themselves than adults. I fondly remember finding a child’s book on the Eucharist where Jesus is giving his disciples the bread of life and the cup because they knew it of salvation simply with these words “This is me”. Our Catholic faith firmly believes that the Bread and the Wine through the power of the Spirit truly and uniquely become the body and blood of the Lord. Just as was the Lord. Jesus fed his disciples in the Upper Room, on the shore of the Sea of John 21 Galilee, so too he feeds us, his new disciples, not through our own worthiness, but through his generosity.

It is amazing really when you think how Jesus took the ordinary things of life, bread and wine, and transformed them into extraordinary gifts, and so too he can take our ordinary and mundane lives and transform us into extraordinary witnesses for His good news.

One of my favourite hymns which has become a little tired over the years expresses this so beautifully when it says:

Here, O my Lord, I see Thee face to face; Here would I touch and handle things unseen; Here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace, And all my weariness upon Thee lean. Joan Whyman

Editor of Christian Life. THE VOICE OF CATHOLIC ANGLICANS Together WINTER 2015 13 Crossroads Sheffield Mission Timidity is a quality often thought essential to Anglican bishops. Either those of the Province of York lack it, or else they overcame it in choosing Sheffield for the first of what are intended to be annual missions to the northern dioceses.

It was a brave decision, since the people of South Yorkshire are among the least religious in the world, and the Diocese is more divided by tradition that any they could have picked. All the ingredients for failure were in the cupboard. Retrieving, mixing, and cooking them was unlikely - we thought - to make for a happy dinner party. We were wrong, and the reason we were wrong may be of interest to readers of Together.

Though the Diocese is as divided as our episcopal visitors - someone missed a good photo of the bishops of Beverley and Stockport chatting outside Sheffield Town Hall - we were there to make one proclamation: Jesus. Some were surprised that Society parishes were such

enthusiastic participants in the mission. Why? What on earth did they think we are here for?

The separations that make up our lives as Catholics in the Church of England, codified in the

recent statements by the bishops of the Society, are only there so that we can proclaim Jesus. Or, rather, so that He can proclaim Himself. What the Society in the Diocese gave the mission was a sacramental edge, a witness to the fact that however slick our attempts to proclaim Jesus are, they are nothing without His proclamation of Himself in the sacraments of the “ Church, above all in the Mass. Bishop Philip North

When the parish of S Matthew’s, Carver Street, took an empty market stall for the mission it housed not the paraphernalia of a “ card-making workshop, but an altar. When the parish of S Matthew’s, Carver Street, took an empty market stall for the mission it housed not the paraphernalia of a card-making workshop, but an altar. At this altar, before a large congregation of shoppers, and stall-holders, the Bishop of Beverley offered the Mass on Saturday afternoon. That evening at New Bentley, while the Bishop of Beverley was at a community event in New Rossington, one of the Bishop of Burnley’s ordinands - a traditionalist at Mirfield - gave a testimony of Jesus’ call to him in the Blessed Sacrament.

The next evening at Goldthorpe, the Bishop of Beverley commissioned lay people from Society parishes for work as missioners. How else were they to begin their work than by seeing and receiving Jesus’ proclamation of himself in Benediction? The evening ended, as everything seemed to, with a bunfight in the Church Hall next door.

The title of the Mission was ‘Crossroads.’ This was the suggestion of the Bishop of Sheffield, with Jeremiah 6.16 - ‘stand at the crossroads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths’ - in mind. The people of South Yorkshire were given a choice: the road to God, or the road away from him. The Society in the Diocese were fully involved in the work of confronting people with this choice.

During the three days we realised that in confronting others with this crossroads we were being confronted with a different one of our own. In one direction lay life in the Church of England, through its imperfect institutions making heard the call of the Catholic Faith; in the other direction lay home, the comfort of bitterness, and the safety of the club. The Crossroads Mission, the fruits of which are already appearing in our parishes, should encourage us to take the first path. As Dave Allen would say, may our God go with us. 14 Together WINTER 2015 THE VOICE OF CATHOLIC ANGLICANS Around the Dioceses with the Bishops Reps

At the beginning of October, Canon Hilary Davidson SSC celebrated his sixty years of priestly ministry with a Mass of the Holy Angels at St Mary's Church in Wellingborough. A large congregation gathered from across the diocese of Peterborough and beyond to mark the occasion and the Bishop of Richborough preached the homily. The Mass was made even more notable by the presence and ministry of newly-minted deacon, Father Matthew Robinson, who is serving his Title at St John's Sevenoaks, but who worshipped at St Mary's Wellingborough before training for the priesthood. So, a priest of sixty years' standing and a deacon ordained for just one week... our wish for them both is Ad Multos Annos!

Bishop Warner is in no doubt that serving and vocations are obviously related as The Guild of Servants of the Sanctuary many priests start out as servers partly because of their proximity to what happens in the sanctuary. have just launched two short films Many of the main shots are taken at the recent annual festival of the Guild at St Albans Holborn.

The first video The Beauty of Holiness focuses on the glory of worship and the synergy between the priestly act of celebration with the often unsung ministry of the server in the sanctuary. With some evocative footage, filmed slightly in slow motion to emphasise the intensity and richness of liturgical symbolism, The Beauty of Holiness features the Bishop of Chichester talking about the drama of liturgy.

The accompanying video, Not to be Served but to Serve, focuses more on how servers in parishes across the country dedicate their lives to assisting the church through a love of service and devotion to the task. There is the preparation and setting up, the choreography and taking part, not to mention the tidying up afterwards and making sure all is ready for the next Mass.

Tarun Thomas, a 16 year old server from East Ham refers to the educational aspect of serving. He tells viewers that his role as a server has taught him a great deal about how the church works and why worship matters.

Tarun believes serving is a great way of young people understanding the dynamics of liturgy and how the church works.

Like many estates it has problems, often caused by lack of maintenance or The motto of the Parish is ‘Saint Francis of Assisi : the Church of England at the heart of adequate funding – it hasn’t the kudos of inner city deprivation. The parish is in the top Friar Park’, and in all that people and priests do, they try to make this reality rather than 5% of deprivation nationally, with high rates of anti-social behaviour, unemployment, hope, with lively worship, accessible preaching, and a very trad model of pastoral care compromised health, and single-parent households. that aims to value every individual.

There’s nothing strange or extraordinary about Farrell, describes it as “a really good the Parish, just a very ordered way of life grounded in prayer and reliant on grace. place to be” with a reputation based more on the past than on the present, “rough but respectable”. At the centre of the Friar Park Estate is set a remarkable large parish church, the gift of a Wolverhampton brother and sister who willed a building, Italian in style, faced in stone, dedicated to Saint Francis, which would offer worship in the Catholic Tradition – they got their way in all of this (although the money they left was divided to allow the building also of Saint Martin’s, Wolverhampton).

There is no Parish Hall, although a ‘recreation area’ at the back of the church was created in the 1990s, so some social life and outreach is possible, but rather limited for space. Over the last ten years there has been a splendid £1million restoration of the building. But, perhaps more important than the fabric (though new heating has been a great hit!), the restoration of the building has been matched by the restoration of a Church Community which has grown from 35/40 in early 2005 (many now dead or in care) to about 75/80 most Sundays (with probably 100 people associated with the church) with a full age range from infants to people in their 90s, with each decade represented; Friar Park is one of the few congregations locally getting younger.

A significant milestone was achieved this year with the ordination of Father Gary Hartill to the Sacred Priesthood. A local lad, who spent time in care and left school with no qualifications, by day Father Gary is a lorry driver, but gives his evenings and weekends to the mission of his Parish, having endured an eight year journey to ministry as an Ordained Local Minister under the auspices of the Diocese of Lichfield and The Queen’s Foundation, Birmingham. Father Gary was Churchwarden in 2005 and involved in Father Ron’s appointment; little did he know what they were getting! It was Father Gary’s daughter who spilt the beans early on that her dad longed to be a priest, and so Father Ron began negotiations with the Diocese to see how to make that dream come true. Father Gary has the most supportive of families, and wife Carole is currently Churchwarden as well as singing in the choir with Father Gary’s mum.

4 October 2015 was another memorable night in the Parish’s life. At the Patronal Festival attended by about 250 folk (which has become fairly usual for S Francis’ Day Masses), Bishop Roger Jupp confirmed 17 candidates ranging in age from 8 to 75, the highest number of candidates the parish has known since 1976. However these 17 reflect today’s patterns of worship, with some able only to worship on weeknights and some irregularly due to shift work. The daily Mass in Friar Park is well attended (when he first came Father Ron asked people exactly when they wanted Mass to be offered and challenged them to attend), and quite regularly the total number of weekday Communions exceeds the Sunday number.

Occasional Offices had dwindled, but there are now large numbers of baptisms and funerals, and weddings are well on the increase with over 20 already booked for next year, and large numbers come (perhaps 1000 each year) to remember their beloved dead at quarterly Memorial Services.
