Deanery Donkey 48 Lent Easter.Pages the Deanery Donkey ✦ No 47 Lent to Easter 2015 ✦ GOODBYE, MARK! The Deanery is bidding a sad farewell to the Area Dean the Revd Dr Mark Butcher at the end of this month, when he moves on to his new role as Archdeacon of Barnstaple (North Devon, in the Diocese of Exeter). Soon after I became Deanery Lay Chairman, several people commented that it must be a pleasure working with Mark, to which I enthusiastically assented: he is consistently efficient, fair-minded and, above all, fun. I know many in the Deanery will agree that North Devon’s gain is very much our loss. Mark will be installed (along with the new Archdeacon of Totnes and the new Bishop of Plymouth) in Exeter Cathedral at 5.30pm on Monday, 20 April during Choral Evensong, having previously been collated in Barnstaple in March. (‘Will you be stapled as well as collated, Mark?’ I asked. ‘I hope so’, he replied, ‘or I’ll just fall apart!’) Prudence Dailey It says a great deal that when Mark Butchers was appointed Area Dean in 2012, those of us in the parish of Wolvercote were scarcely aware of the difference. The same could have been said when he added the parish of Wytham to his duties in 2010. From the moment of his arrival in Wolvercote in 2005, Mark made an impact. He learned names quickly, he made himself known in the community, and he made it possible for the congregation to recognise what needed to be done and to get on and do it. Michael Daniell WELCOME WILL! The Rev. Will Donaldson is our new Area Dean of Oxford. He is currently Chaplain at St Edmund Hall in Oxford University, and also Director of Pastoral Care at St Aldates Church, Oxford. Previously, from 2007, he was Director of Christian Leadership at Wycliffe Hall where he taught Leadership Studies and had oversight of all the ministerial training. Will has had twenty-five years in parish ministry before coming to Oxford and has been Vicar of churches in Bristol and London. He has also been a Director of Ordinands in the London Diocese, and a Bishop’s Ministerial Reviewer. Will is married to Ruth and they have four older children. He loves visiting places of historical interest, reading theological and historical books, travelling cross-culturally, going to the theatre and cinema, watching sport and is a keen Manchester United fan! My vision for the Deanery is still taking shape: but I love Acts 2.42-47… ‘They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer...And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved’. deanery news PARISH SHARE 2016 AND BEYOND The words ‘Parish Share’ are uppermost in a great many parishes. Prudence Dailey explains how the Deanery is looking to how it is worked out in the future. Our current method of allocating Share between parishes within the Deanery is designed so that each parish covers its ministry costs as a minimum, plus a reasonable proportion of other Diocesan/national church costs based on a variety of criteria. This system was brought in over the four years up to 2009, and since then we have added on the percentage increase each year with various adjustments, particularly for parishes struggling to pay. 2015 would have seen a 12% increase in Deanery Share, had this not been capped at the Diocesan maximum of a 4.5% increase, and it is likely that the Oxford Deanery will be facing 4.5% increases each year for the foreseeable future. (This situation has been brought about by the decline in church attendance overall, which has impacted less heavily on the city than on rural areas.) It has become clear that applying this increase across the board year on year will simply not be sustainable for a number of parishes in the Deanery. The Deanery Treasurer, Alan McCullough, endeavoured to adjust the formula in various ways, but every attempt produced more anomalies. We therefore decided to keep the current system for 2015, but to set up a review process to identify a new system for 2016. We have now held the first of a series of meetings for treasurers and incumbents in the Deanery, following which all parishes in the Deanery have been asked to produce a summary of financial and other information, to be shared with the group as part of a ‘transparency exercise’. The next meeting will take place in March. Reminder The next meeting of the Oxford Deanery Synod is on Thursday 26 February at 7.45 at St John the Evangalist, Vicarage Road, New Hinksey (off the Abingdon Road). St Andrew’s, Linton Road !

Speakers will reflect on the Christian ministry they exercise on the margins of modern life: 1 March Janet Proudman, LLM and Hospital Lay Chaplain 8 March The Revd Phil Atkinson, Managing Director of ACTI, Aldate’s Community Transformation Initiatives. FRIDAY PRAYERS The Cathedral is offering brief prayers at 12noon each Friday, with a particular intention for peace between the religious traditions. St Ebbe’s Samurai Tea Samurai, Tea Ceremony and the way of Jesus St Frideswide Jo Moffatt-Levy’s Licensing On 28 January 2015 Colin, Bishop of Dorchester, licensed Jo Moffatt-Levy as a priest at the church of SS Peter and Paul, Botley. And Jo has now joined the Osney Benefice. The Benefice comprises SS Peter and Paul, St Lawrence, North Hinksey, St Margaret of Antioch, Binsey and St Frideswide, Botley Road. Jo will have particular responsibility for St Frideswide, its parish and parishioners. The licensing was a very happy occasion, attended by a large number of people from across the Benefice and beyond, many of whom stayed on after the service to raise a glass to Jo and to welcome her. In his address Bishop Colin explained that he always prays for each church he passes as he travels round the Diocese. And thanks to the slow-moving traffic on the Botley Road, he has been able to spend considerable time praying for St Frideswide, sited as it is right on the Botley Road! Could one outcome of this be the welcome appointment of Jo to the Benefice and the church? The parish is delighted that Jo has joined the Ministry Team and we are looking forward to working with her to serve the people of West Oxford.

Vernacular Writings in the Medieva} Libraries of Great Britain I Glenise Scott, Ph.0. thesis, Keel e, 1 980. ABSTRACT The thesis comprises four volumes: an introductory discussion; two volumes containing lists of religious and other institutions with information on the works in the vernacular languages which they are known to have owned; and a volume of indices and bibliographies. The information is obtained from the surviving books of the medieval period, here taken as extending to 1540, which are known to have belonged to the religious and other houses, and from their medieval catalogues, book-lists and other documents. With the help of the indices, one may find the information relevant to a particular house, to an Anglo-Saxon, French or English work, or to a given manuscript. The introduction makes some general’observations concerning the libraries and books of medieval institutions, lists the medieval catalogues and book-lists chronologically, and considers the various kinds of vernacular writings, with particular reference to their production and ownership by the religious houses. Finally, some areas for further research are indicated.

  • 16 July 2008 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Marsha and I
    16 July 2008 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Marsha and I arrived in Shannon and then were driven to the Bishop’s House in the Diocese of Tuam, where we stayed with Bishop Richard Henderson, his wife Anita, and their ‘children.’ As previously posted, a great time was had by all. We then drove back to the Shannon airport with Bishop Richard for our journey to our next leg of this remarkable trip. We arrived at the airport where we were told that the radar at Dublin had ‘crashed’ several days prior, and that flights in and out were being delayed/canceled. Our flight, presently, was on time. We held our breath to see if we would get out. Our flight was, for the most part, on time, and we arrived in Dublin with plenty of time to spare. As we walked through the airport we noticed that most of the outgoing flights were delayed by several hours. Our flight to Heathrow was posted as ‘on time.’ It was only at boarding time that it was rescheduled for about an hour later. Once aboard, the pilot announced that if we didn’t all get situated in our seats immediately we would miss our ‘window of opportunity’ and would possibly not get out that evening. I have never seen so many people sit down in an airplane so quickly as I did that night. We departed about an hour late, but eventually arrived in Heathrow to pick up our luggage. (As one might imagine, two of our bags were the very last to come off the belt.) About a decade ago a young priest came to stay with us.

  • Cathedral News
    Cathedral News August 2019 – No. 688 From: The Dean We’ve recently gone through the process of Peer Review. After the Chapter had completed a lengthy self-evaluation questionnaire on matters of governance and finance and so on, three reviewers came from other cathedrals to mark our homework. Or rather, to bring an external perspective to bear, and help us refine our thinking about where we are heading as a cathedral. In spite of our natural wariness in advance, only to be expected given the amount of external scrutiny the cathedral has undergone in recent years, it was an encouraging experience. More of that, however, in a future Cathedral News. For now, I want to pick up on a comment made by all three reviewers. They came to us from Liverpool, Winchester, and Ely, and all expressed delight, and surprise, at the splendour of our cathedral: “We had no idea what a marvellous building it is!” For me, their observations provoked two questions... Is it because we all take the building for granted? Or is it because we’ve failed to tell our story effectively? I suspect there is truth behind both these questions. We all know how ‘distance lends enchantment to the view’; and the converse is also clearly true. It is not that familiarity necessarily breeds contempt, but you cannot live in a perpetual state of wonderment. Sir Simon Jenkins, the author of all those books on beautiful houses and railway stations and churches and cathedrals, told of his visit to Exeter: “I came into the cathedral and sat in silence for half an hour, overwhelmed by the beauty of the place.” I have the benefit of being in the cathedral every day, and will often speak of how our vaulted ceiling lifts my heart daily to heaven.

  • TOTNES MISSION COMMUNITY the Benefice of Totnes With
    TOTNES MISSION COMMUNITY Appointment of Team Rector January 2020 AN INTRODUCTION TO he Benefice of Totnes with T Bridgetown, Ashprington, Berry Pomeroy Brooking, Cornworthy Dartington, Marldon and Stoke Gabriel. A note from the Archdeacon Every place is special in its own way, but the ancient market town of Totnes and the beautiful South Hams of Devon in which it is set are exceptional. Both the town itself, with its distinguished history and considerable present interest, and the rural communities surrounding it offer an unusually rich and varied cultural life, from the firmly traditional to the decidedly unconventional. Totnes has long been a centre for those seeking forms of spirituality and lifestyle alternative to the mainstream, at the same time retaining all the inherited elements of a fine old West Country market town. With Dartington Hall, Schumacher College, the Sharpham Estate, and other local organisations operating in the area of the benefice, the range of cultural and educational opportunities on offer locally is high, drawing people to Totnes from across the country and beyond. The villages are home to a mix of incomers and those with local roots. There are areas of great wealth within the benefice, and also areas of severe poverty and social deprivation. In all this, the churches of the benefice demonstrate a clear and increasing engagement with their vocation to grow in prayer, make disciples, and serve the people of their communities with joy. The person called to be the next Team Rector will need to demonstrate the capacity to exercise strong, clear, loving leadership in mission and service, working with a gifted and motivated team of colleagues to develop and implement the impressive action plan to which the churches are committed.
