  • 2010 Pastoral Address
    A Pastoral Address to the People of God of the Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe The Rt. Rev. Pierre W. Whalon, D.D. Bishop in charge and Suffragan to the Presiding Bishop October 14, 2010 Celebrating Mission 2006 — Now What? Dear People of God, The canon law of The Episcopal Church requires bishops to make an annual Address to their conventions and synods. Two years ago, I decided not to read my annual Address to the 2008 Waterloo Convention of the Convocation. The “Transformed By Stories” method, applied to the Convention as “Telling Our Stories,” seemed to preclude the usual lengthy talk. (My Convention Addresses when read last about forty-five minutes.) Instead, I issued a Pastoral Letter in the form of an Address, to be made available in all our congregations after Convention. As this continues to be quite popular (!), I am repeating for the third year this way of addressing the delegates, by addressing all of you. As always, I am not requiring that your clergy read this to you (for which they are doubtless thankful). Instead, I am directing that this be made widely available to all our over 4,000 members of the churches of the Convocation. Thank you very much for taking the time to read it. If you feel so inclined, I would very much welcome your comments. Please write me care of the Convocation, 23 avenue George V, 75008 Paris France, or else email at [email protected], I promise to reply! Last year we celebrated “150 Years of Mission in Europe.” It was a great convention in Geneva, at Emmanuel Church, one of the Episcopal Church’s crown jewels.

  • Loaves & Fishes Project Debrief
    Loaves & Fishes Project Debrief Aim From the start, the ‘Loaves & Fishes’ project was about more than ‘just’ the environment. It was an initiative about Community and Creation, encouraging people all around Morecambe Bay to reach out with their neighbours in a celebration of place and to include in this embrace those creatures of the seas which feed and delight us. Focused in Pentecost week, 7-15 June, it was a way of celebrating the power of God’s Spirit which animates the whole of Creation, our own life and that of the creatures which share this world with us. And the project was to be an ecumenical initiative, both in its organisation and realisation. Taking a cue from the CAFOD Emmaus Meal, we aimed to encourage every coastal community between Barrow-in-Furness and Fleetwood to host some kind of ‘Loaves & Fishes’ meal, open to people of all faiths and none, sharing fish, seafood and bread in shore-side picnics, school meals or parish hall parties. Project resources and costs Project costs, apart from the time of the team members, were envisaged as including leaflet design and printing, mailing stationery and postage and sundries associated with project week itself. The Lancaster Roman Catholic diocese Faith & Justice Commission and Blackburn diocese Social Responsibility generously agreed to provide £250 each to cover these costs. Network building With the assistance of the Blackburn Cathedral Education Officer, Joanna Booth, the project team established a database of 96 faith communities and 76 schools bordering the Bay (including, for Lancashire, non-church schools), the three cathedrals and local faith community leaders.
