You will remember that we started the year in the expectation that we would not be able to pay £3,200 (15%) of our Par- ish Share. I always believed we would somehow meet our obligations, but I had no idea how we could make up the shortfall. I constantly reminded the Church of the need for extra funding, and by October the expected shortfall had reduced to a fantastic £1,000, but we could still see no way to make up all the shortfall. At Kevin’s first PCC he said that we should stop worrying about the financial problem, and instead, pray and trust that God would enable us to pay our way! Little did I appreciate at the time how truly bounteous God is, and how generous His people would be, as we have all worked and given in response to His prompting. At 31 December, the headline figure in the accounts is that we have not only met all our obligations, but have exceeded this by over £1,000. God is good. Praise and thank Him!

  • The CWG Will Review Aspects of Cathedral Management And
    The Archbishops of Canterbury and York have set up a Cathedrals Working Group, CWG, in response to a request made by the Bishop of Peterborough in his January 2017 Visitation Charge on Peterborough Cathedral for a revision to be carried out of the adequacy of the current Cathedrals Measure. The CWG will review aspects of cathedral management and governance and produce recommendations for the Archbishops on the implications of these responsibilities with regards to the current Cathedrals Measure. It will be chaired by the Bishop of Stepney, Adrian Newman, the former Dean of Rochester Cathedral, and the Dean of York, Vivienne Faull, will be the vice chair. The Working Group will look at a number of different areas of Cathedral governance, including training and development for cathedral deans and chapters, financial management issues, the procedure for Visitations, safeguarding matters, buildings and heritage and the role of Cathedrals in contributing to evangelism within their dioceses. The Bishop of Stepney and the Dean of York said: "Cathedrals contribute uniquely to the ecology of the Church of England, and we are a healthier, stronger church when they flourish. We are pleased to have this opportunity to review the structures that support their ministry, in order to enhance their role in church and society Cathedrals are one of the success stories of the Church of England, with rising numbers of worshippers. They are a vital part of our heritage and make an incalculable contribution to the life of the communities that they serve. This is an exciting opportunity for the Working Group to look at the different aspects of how Cathedrals work, and to ensure that the legislation and procedures they use are fit for purpose for their mission in the 21st century." The Group will report back initially to the Archbishops' Council, Church Commissioners and House of Bishops in December 2017.

  • Faith Leaders' Open Letter to the Prime Minister
    http://interfaithrefugeeinitiative.org/ We are leaders from Britain’s major faiths: Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jain, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, Zoroastrian. All our faiths compel us to affirm the dignity of all human beings and to offer help to anyone in need. As people of faith, we call on your Government urgently to revise its policy towards refugees. The best of this country is represented by the generosity, kindness, solidarity and decency that Britain has at many times shown those fleeing persecution, even at times of far greater deprivation and difficulty than the present day. We rejoice in the mosaic of different faiths and British communities that we now represent. We are proud that in May 2016, in a survey by Amnesty International, 83% of Britons said they would welcome refugees into their neighbourhoods and households. In the face of the unfolding human catastrophe, there are immediate and viable steps that the Government can take to offer sanctuary to more refugees. We call on you to create safe, legal routes of travel, for example by adopting fair and humane family reunion policies for refugees. Under the present immigration rules, a British doctor of Syrian origin could not bring her parents from a refugee camp in Lebanon – even though they were refugees and she could support and house them. A Syrian child who arrived alone in the UK could not bring his parents from a refugee camp in Jordan – even if the child were recognised a refugee and even though his parents were themselves refugees. Families in these situations can currently be reunited only by resorting to desperately unsafe irregular journeys, sometimes ending in avoidable tragedies.

  • Apocalyptic Thought in John Henry Newman
    APOCALYPTIC THOUGHT IN JOHN HENRY NEWMAN: DISCERNING ANTICHRIST IN MODERNITY A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Damon McGraw Cyril J. O’Regan, Director Graduate Program in Theology Notre Dame, Indiana March 2014 © Copyright 2014 Damon McGraw APOCALYPTIC THOUGHT IN JOHN HENRY NEWMAN: DISCERNING ANTICHRIST IN MODERNITY Abstract by Damon McGraw This dissertation is the first full-length study of the apocalyptic thought of John Henry Newman (1801-1890). As such it fills lacunae in the fields of Newman scholarship and apocalyptic studies simply by showing that there is a significant amount of apocalyptic thought to be found in Newman’s writings and that he deserves to be recognized as an important figure in this Christian theological tradition. The dissertation also makes three larger contributions to scholarship. It addresses the perennial and unresolved question of Newman’s intellectual coherence and theological identity. It argues that attending to the role of apocalyptic narrative in his thought reveals a unique integrity and consistency in what otherwise appears to be a highly eclectic set of writings. It explains how apocalyptic thought provided a master narrative that oriented his life and work, the varied path of his religious and literary career, as well as the development of his mature mind. To scholars of apocalyptic thought this dissertation demonstrates that Newman was a fervent inheritor of the British Protestant apocalyptic tradition and that his efforts to renew and extend its narrative led to his realization of a distinctively modern Catholic apocalyptic perspective Damon McGraw as well as a profound conviction of the “secularizing” effects of the classically Protestant identification of the Pope as Antichrist.

  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2017
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2017 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.

  • St John at Hackney Diocese of London
    St John at Hackney Diocese of London The Church of St John at Hackney is situated in the London Borough of Hackney. It was built in 1792 to the north east of the medieval parish church, of which only St Augustine's Tower remains. The current building is a testimony to the Hackney Phalanx, and acts as a political statement. It was designed to seat 2,200 people, and is a magnificent example of classical Georgian architecture. Introduction, description and goals of the project In April 2007, we asked the question, ‘What is St John at Hackney?’ We sought the opinions of many people: we consulted with Hackney Council, the police and the health authority as well as the wider Hackney community and our own congregation. We dared to think boldly and creatively, while remaining resolute that our central identity was the joyful privilege of being the parish church of Hackney. On 24 June 2008, the result of this amazing year of listening, the St John at Hackney Project was launched by Bishop Stephen, the former Bishop of Stepney. The project was our emerging five- year mission action plan and at its core were three main objectives. First, we would conserve and celebrate our heritage together. Communities need a shared identity, and the Hackney identity is partly found in our story. People who have shaped the way in which we live our lives - Joshua and John Watson, Christopher Urswick and Francis Beaufort - are all associated with St John’s. To celebrate this heritage, we have preserved their monuments, helped to develop school visits and fully restored our tower and clock faces.
