Mothers' Union Matters From the Diocesan President Mothers’ Union Matters in the Diocese of Chester Were you there? We had a wonderful Summer 2015 Diocesan Festival on 12th May graced by Bp Libby and with an interesting and humorous Charity Number 221214 address by Lynne Tembey, our Worldwide President. Congratulations to Canon Chris Humphries who was commissioned as our Chaplain at the service. Were you there when the three Queens turned 180 degrees in the Mer- sey on Bank Holiday Monday? What an amazing sight to see three ocean going liners in synchronised movements. I enjoyed both events for their celebration of considerable achievements. My heartfelt congratulations go to Viv Ley, who has been duly elected as your Diocesan President for the next triennium. Congratulations also to Diana Bancroft elected as Chester Archdeaconry President and Wendy Sykes who is continuing as Macclesfield Archdeaconry President. I am sure they will make an excellent team and pray that St Paul’s Church, Strines, near Marple God will be with them in all they do for Mothers’ Union. Our wonderful Secretary Brenda Bailey will be retiring at the end of June after 6 years as Diocesan Secretary and 3 years previous to that as Assistant Secretary. Brenda's commitment to Mothers' Union has been second to none. She has always been the helpful voice on the Members enjoying summer telephone and has cheerfully and efficiently carried out her duties.

Chris Humphries and Angela Klabou During the service, our Diocesan President, Angela and Canon Chris gave a presentation entitled “Our Father for everyday”, based on the Lord’s Prayer, which was very thought provoking. Canon Chris had also written one of the hymns that were sung that afternoon. Our Worldwide President, Lynne Tembey, in an interesting and amusing talk, started by saying that the last time she had come to Chester Diocese was when she was the York Provincial President.

  • Diocese of Chester Cycle of Prayer Sunday, 28 March to Saturday, 24
    Diocese of Chester Cycle of Prayer Sunday, 28 March to Saturday, 24 April 2021 Sunday, 28 March 2021 Palm Sunday The disciples were weighed down. There had been dissension when the sons of Zebedee made a play for the places of authority at Christ's left and right. Soon there would be Jesus' dismaying words about the destruction of the Temple. Talk of his death would prompt them all to promises of death-defying loyalty. All too soon the promises will be found empty. Did they understand the donkey? The beast of common labour; rather than the war horse of power? Or were they weighed down with expectations of what a king's authority should look like? The palms gave Jesus and the animals the red-carpet treatment. No hoof or foot laid on bare cobbles. But didn't the disciples see that as a royal beginning, rather than the end of power plays? Jesus had sent them out (6.8) without money, nor extra shirt, nor food, or even a bag. Could there be a clearer instruction to leave the baggage behind? But it is so hard. The road of faith overturns our self-concern, forces us to leave our burdens aside, and calls us into unlikely, but joyful, company. Ours is a God of the brief encounter on the only journey that ultimately matters – the journey to him. And, lest the coming clouds of Friday obscure the way, we know also of two sad friends journeying to Emmaus who met their Risen Lord, and although they knew him not, it was like a fire burning within them.

    Chester Cathedral Strategic Plan 2018 – 2020 1 Contents 1. Foreword 2. About us 3. Our strategic framework 4. Delivering the vision 5. 2020 - 2030 Strategic planning 6. Contacts Photo Credits: Peter Smith 2 Foreword Chester Cathedral has been at the heart of the city of Chester for centuries and throughout its existence its custodians have developed strategies to deliver their vision. Today we continue in that tradition through this document, detailing our priorities for the next two transitional years and the development of a long term plan through to 2030. Chester Cathedral has developed significantly over the last 5 years; we have seen visitor numbers soar from 65,000 to over 300,000 in 2017. Our activities have broadened and deepened in their ambition and quality over this period. We have solved many of the core challenges which have curtailed the Cathedral’s development over the last few decades. It’s clear we still have a long way to go to achieve our vision for Chester and the Chester Diocese. With teamwork, a shared determination and great passion for our roles and the cathedral, I feel confident we will overcome our outstanding challenges and meet new ones as they come along. This is an exciting time to be part of Chester Cathedral. I look forward to watching it thrive through the period of this plan and to see the development of a long term sustainable strategy which will ensure a bright future for Chester Cathedral. The Revd Canon Jane Brooke Acting Dean 3 4 About us Chester Cathedral is a rare surviving example, in terms of condition and completeness, of a monastic complex transformed into a Cathedral.

Chester Diocesan Board of Finance. Church House, 5500 Daresbury Park, Daresbury, Warrington WA4 4GE. Tel: 01928 718834 Chester Diocesan Board of Finance is a company limited by guarantee registered in England (no. 7826) Registered charity (no. 248968) Foreword I’ll never forget, after a long walk with my Dad, in Pendle, Lancashire, sipping a pint in a pub and chatting to the locals. Five minutes later I was surprised to turn to see my Dad placing his arthritic hand into the dirty palms of a particularly burly local farmer as they bowed their heads in prayer. I didn’t quite know where to look or what to do, so I lowered my head and kept quiet. It seemed like the right thing to do, and it helped me avoid the gaze of the growing number of amused boozy onlookers. That was my first and slightly embarrassing introduction to prayer. Since then I’ve travelled a long way, but I still remember the first tentative steps I took for myself. I also remember just how uncomfortable and alien praying felt to me. For those well versed in the lifelong discipline of prayer, it can perhaps be easy to forget just how strange the whole thing can be to start. I am grateful to one good colleague from many years ago who shared with me the William Temple quote: ‘When I pray, coincidences happen, when I don’t they don’t.’ As you pray during this period, please pray for those who are just starting and giving it a go.
