    28 January 2014 To the Clergy No 12 copied to diocesan staff, lay chairs, and the clergy of Yaxley Deanery Dear friends Warm greetings. I hope you are well and enjoying life and ministry. There are a number of matters I want to share with you. Archdeacon of Northampton Welcome to Richard Ormston as he becomes Archdeacon of Northampton on Saturday 1 February. He and Jackie will move into the Archdeacon’s house during the half term holiday next month. Cheryl Goddard continues as the Archdeacon of Northampton’s Secretary, based at Westbrook, 11 The Drive, Northampton NN1 4RZ; phone 01604 714015, email secretary.northampton@peterborough- diocese.org.uk , and the Archdeacon’s contact details remain as before (address and phone as for the Secretary, email archdeacon.northampton@peterborough- diocese.org.uk ). Senior Staff We have our annual senior staff residential meeting at Launde Abbey this week (and look forward to welcoming Richard Ormston as he spends some time with us to help him prepare for his new role). As part of that meeting we will think about and pray for each of our parishes and clergy by name. We want you to know of our prayer support for you. Here’s a reminder of the way we share diocesan work out among the senior staff: partly so you can pray for us, partly so you know the best person to contact with particular issues. • I have particular oversight and care of ordinands, curates, and clergy in parish ministry, and of the Adult Education and Training team. • Bishop John chairs the Board of Education with its responsibility for church schools, and oversees the clergy who work in chaplaincy, those with permission to officiate, and our licensed lay ministers.

  • Ministry in the Diocese of Peterborough
    Ministry in the Diocese of Peterborough Warm greetings as you explore the possibility of ministry in Peterborough Diocese. Dioceses vary in their culture and their approach to ministry and mission. I hope it will help if I spell out some of our commitments, expectations and aspirations. You can find more on our website; this simply paints the picture in broad brush strokes. Roughly speaking the diocese covers Northamptonshire and Rutland as well as the City of Peterborough (which used to be in Northants, is now in Cambridgeshire for ceremonial purposes, but is a unitary authority running its own affairs). The Archdeaconry of Northampton covers the boroughs of Northampton and Wellingborough, and the districts of Daventry and South Northants. The Archdeaconry of Oakham covers Peterborough, Rutland, the boroughs of Corby and Kettering, and the district of East Northants. The diocese is medium sized in population with a little under a million people, but the rural areas of Northants and Rutland include many small villages with fine, and usually modestly proportioned, medieval churches. There is one suffragan bishop, John Holbrook, Bishop of Brixworth since 2011, and two archdeacons: Gordon Steele of Oakham since 2012 and Richard Ormston of Northampton since 2014. I came to the diocese in 2010 charged to reverse the serious decline in churchgoing and to instil a greater sense of diocesan identity and unity. Clergy morale is important to us. I visit all licensed clergy in their homes every three years on a purely pastoral basis. We talk about “shared episcope” and I encourage rural deans and parish clergy to be leaders in mission, confidently getting on with ministry.

  • The Magazine for the Parish of Ss Peter & Paul, with St Michael And
    The magazine for the parish of Ss Peter & Paul, with St Michael and All Angels, Kettering 2 From Your Rector David writes: Half of the church's calendar is taken up with 'Festival' and other special seasons, marking the great events in the Christian story. The other half is what we call 'Ordinary Time'. This divides the Christian year fairly neatly into two distinct halves, with one exception. For just a few weeks in February, we have a brief taste of Ordinary Time in the middle of what is otherwise an uninterrupted run of special seasons: Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent and Easter. But soon Lent will be with us. It is a special time of the year, a time to reflect on our lives and our faith. As a parish, we will be reflecting on what it means to be a follower of Jesus. There is no one way to follow Jesus. Part of the delight of being in a church is to see people working out for themselves in such different ways how to respond to the words 'follow me'. Yet as we wrestle with what this means for us, we can be inspired and we can learn: from other Christians, from some of the remarkable women and men who have been on this journey before us. This year as a parish we are taking as our guide and teacher the former Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, whose book 'Being Disciples' I encourage you to get hold of and read. We have copies of the book for those of you joining our Tuesday evening and Wednesday lunchtime discussion groups during Lent.

  • Northamptonshire Historic Churches Trust Annual
    NORTHAMPTONSHIRE HISTORIC CHURCHES TRUST ANNUAL REPORT 2019 3 EAUTY and religion were inseparable in the minds of medieval Englishmen, Bwho showed their love for their Creator by worshipping him, with beautiful ceremonies, in beautiful places which they themselves had helped to create. There was an intense fervour in competition. Their church became to them not only a centre of religious fervour but also of parochial pride. The church was the very centre of the community. Every single activity in any village or town was centred upon it. Early schooling, such as it was, took place here; parish armour, the parish coffin and bier, bridal outfits for poor girls and even parish fire-fighting equipment was stored at the church. Public meetings were held in the church porch, and even today it is the place for displaying public notices. No other country in the world has so many venerable and interesting churches, so clearly reflecting the spirit of those who built them and lavished care and attention on them through the centuries. We have handed down to us a priceless heritage which demands effort from us if it is to pass on with its unique story to our successors.

  • Glorious Revolution', 1688
    (._ EDUCATION IN THE PETERBOROUGH DIOCESE IN THE CENTURY FOLLOWING THE 'GLORIOUS REVOLUTION', 1688. by D. K. SHEARING. Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University of London, Institute of Education, History and Humanities Department. 1. LON©f • ot`J ABSTRACT. There is a consensus of academic opinion that for approximately 100 years stretching from 1688, the date of the 'Glorious Revolution', to the onset of industrialisation England enjoyed relative stability, the condition being attributed to political pragmatism. The purpose of this thesis is twofold; to document the educational developments that characterized the period and to examine their effect, nature and scope, about which historians sharply disagree. The principle that in any age education is a social tool whose practical possibilities rest on people's assumptions determined the strategy of pursuing four main lines of enquiry. These form thematic chapters, the contents of which are briefly summarized as follows: 1. Provision; the Church of England's supervisory role; incidental management of schools. 2. The curriculum and teaching methodology employed in the various scholastic institutions. 3. A survey of scholars in attendance at elementary schools, grammar schools and academies. 4. A consideration of the teaching force with sections on religious attitudes, financial standing and professionalism. Although the study has a national dimension its distinct regional focus is intentional because the bulk of surviving records relate to a locality, enabling its educational system to be largely reconstructed. The Peterborough diocese proved to be an eminently suitable choice being both the setting for educational diversity and extremely rich in source material.

Many thanks to all who have supported the Guild in any way during that time and especially thanks go to all of my fellow officers for all their hard work. Being a guild officer is not always easy particularly when others, appear at least, to think they can do a better job but never offer to do so. During the last 10 years I have seen a dropping off of ringers attending Branch and Guild meetings on a regular basis. The most often heard reason is that they are too busy but those who do attend are usually busy people too.
