When the final bell was lifted, it was manually struck – not as part of a ritual (or even a superstition): its sound was recorded so that the church in Sydney interested in that bell can hear it! 5 The weight has to be distributed evenly for the trip to the Whitechapel Bell Foundry. 4 2 3 5 2 Christ Church Link August 2014 Synod votes yes to women bishops On Monday 14 July all three Houses of the General Synod of the Church of England voted in favour of legislation to enable women to become bishops.

    Diocese in Europe Prayer Diary, July to December 2011

    DIOCESE IN EUROPE PRAYER DIARY, JULY TO DECEMBER 2011 This calendar has been compiled to help us to pray together for one another and for our common concerns. Each chaplaincy, with the communities it serves, is remembered in prayer once a year, according to the following pattern: Eastern Archdeaconry - January, February Archdeaconry of France - March, April Archdeaconry of Gibraltar - May, June Diocesan Staff - July Italy & Malta Archdeaconry - July Archdeaconry of North West Europe - August, September Archdeaconry of Germany and Northern Europe Nordic and Baltic Deanery - September, October Germany - November Swiss Archdeaconry - November, December Each Archdeaconry, with its Archdeacon, is remembered on a Sunday. On the other Sundays, we pray for subjects which affect all of us (e.g. reconciliation, on Remembrance Sunday), or which have local applications for most of us (e.g. the local cathedral or cathedrals). Some chaplains might like to include prayers for the other chaplaincies in their deanery. We also include the Anglican Cycle of Prayer (daily, www.aco.org), the World Council of Churches prayer cycle (weekly, www.oikoumene.org, prayer resources on site), the Porvoo Cycle (weekly, www.porvoochurches.org), and festivals and commemorations from the Common Worship Lectionary (www.churchofengland.org/prayer-worship/worship/texts.aspx). Sundays and Festivals, printed in bold type, have special readings in the Common Worship Lectionary. Lesser Festivals, printed in normal type, have collects in the Common Worship Lectionary. Commemorations, printed in italics, may have collects in Exciting Holiness, and additional, non- biblical, readings for all of these may be found in Celebrating the Saints (both SCM-Canterbury Press).

    THE REPORT OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY’S COMMISSION ON THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE CHANNEL ISLANDS TO THE WIDER CHURCH OF ENGLAND 30 September 2019 Letter from the Chair of the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Commission on the relationship of the Channel Islands to the wider Church of England, the Right Revd & Rt Hon the Lord Chartres, GCVO PC Dear Archbishop, At the beginning of the work of the Commission you insisted that we should not seek to pass judgement on the unhappy sequence of events which precipitated the breakdown of relations between the Diocese of Winchester and the Deaneries of Guernsey and Jersey. Rather we were to focus on the possibility and shape of a future relationship conducive to the mutual flourishing of the Church in the Islands and the wider Church of England. We were charged to consult with the ecclesiastical and secular authorities in the Islands, with the Bishop of Winchester, his staff and other interested parties. This we have endeavoured to do. In the Report which follows we have proposed a way forward which, I believe, honours the polity of the Church of England and in particular the enhanced level of accountability of its bishops in the light of recent legislation but which also recognises and respects the traditions, both legal and ecclesiastical, which obtain in the Channel Islands. Our recommendations for action are attached. I have been very fortunate to be joined in this Commission by Baroness Judith Wilcox and Sir Christopher Clarke. After a distinguished business and political career, Baroness Wilcox has been able to offer a shrewd analysis of the context for our work while Sir Christopher Clarke with his extensive experience as a former Judge of the Courts of Appeal in Guernsey and Jersey, and Lord Justice of Appeal, has contributed an invaluable legal perspective.

    News April 5 ! CNI ! Theresa May criticises National Trust over ‘ridiculous’ decision to drop ‘Easter’ from egg hunt Theresa May has criticised the National Trust after the word ‘Easter’ was dropped from its annual egg hunt. The Prime Minister called the decision “absolutely ridiculous”. Cadbury, which sponsors the annual event that takes place at National Trust properties across [email protected] Page !1 News April 5 Britain, said it had taken the decision to drop the word ‘Easter’ from the egg hunt title for the first time in a decade in order to appeal to “people from all faiths and none”. Speaking in Saudi Arabia where she is on a trade visit, May, an Anglican, said Easter was “very important” to her and she didn’t know what the National Trust “are thinking”. “I’m not just a vicar’s daughter – I’m a member of the National Trust as well. I think the stance they’ve taken is absolutely ridiculous and I don’t know what they’re thinking about,” she told ITV News. “Easter’s very important. It’s important to me, it’s a very important festival for the Christian faith for millions across the world. So I think what the National Trust is doing is frankly just ridiculous.” The National Trust said it was “in no way downplaying the significance of Easter” and that Cadbury “are responsible for the branding and wording of our egg hunt campaign.” A spokesman for Cadbury said: “Each year, our Easter campaigns have a different name and this year our seasonal campaign is called the ‘Cadbury’s Great British Egg Hunt’.

    Order of Service Together with Details of the Music and Readings

    Westminster Abbey Evensong in the presence of His All-Holiness Bartholomew I Archbishop of Constantinople-New Rome, and Ecumenical Patriarch and The Most Reverend and Right Honourable Justin Welby Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of All England and Metropolitan Tuesday 3rd November 2015 5.00 pm Welcome to Westminster Abbey. Daily prayer has been offered in this place for over a thousand years and your participation in today’s service is warmly welcomed. At Choral Evensong most of the service is sung by the choir on our behalf. We participate through our presence and our listening, that the words and the music might become a prayer within us and lift us to contemplate God’s beauty and glory. The service always includes one or more psalms. These ancient prayers, taken from the Old Testament, reflect the full range of human emotions and experiences; from the depths of anger, resentment, and abandonment to the heights of ecstatic joy and praise. They were used by Jesus, and have always been at the heart of the Church’s daily prayer. The Magnificat and Nunc dimittis, taken from the early chapters of St Luke’s gospel, reflect two responses to the Incarnation (God becoming fully human in Jesus Christ). Both speak of the fulfilment of God’s promises, not just to ‘Abraham and his seed’, but also ‘to be a light to lighten the Gentiles’ (all nations). With their themes of fulfilment and completion, these texts have been given central place for many centuries in the Church’s prayers for the evening and at the end of the day.
