  • July 2018 Newsletter
    July 2018 Volume 8, Issue 6 Welcome AWSC Links In 2018 AWSC has welcomed some new Link Representatives to our network to act as conduits of information and support for Anglican women in ministry and in the coming months we hope to be able to introduce them all to you. We are blessed to welcome for the first time, dedicated Links representing the Diocese of Polynesia Archdeacon- ries. These Links will embark on establishing communication networks across their region and we look forward to hearing more about what is happening in your region in the coming months. Introducing Adi Tukana AWSC Link Rep Fiji Archdeaconry I was born into a Christian family that held s Studies Centre s Studies and still holds morale values close to the ’ heart and this has moulded me to become the person I am today. Though I had a diffi- cult start to life, it did not deter me from staying positive and to strive for a better future. When the realities of life struck me, I derailed from the course I set for myself and stayed within my comfort zone. But in 2006, I had a revelation from God and I knew I had to complete my education and start contrib- uting positively towards my family and to the community as a whole. I am the youngest of seven siblings and it has always been a dream of mine to join the ministry. Over the years I have had the privilege of attending various workshops on leadership and ecu- menical relations between churches and the a goal together as I find the experience more community and feel that I have benefitted valuable than anything you can buy off a greatly from these experiences in the devel- shelf.

  • For All the Saints a Resource for the Commemorations of the Calendar
    For All the Saints A Resource for the Commemorations of the Calendar Full Biography Version Volume 1 edited by Ken Booth revised edition © The Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia, 2015 i ii Preface to the 1996 Edition I am happy to commend this publication to the church. Our gratitude goes to so many for their painstaking work in compiling the material, most notably Ken Booth and Margaret Wood. Their investment in this project has been immense from the outset, as Ken’s introduction illustrates. a) Each commemoration includes a short biographical section, a “liturgical paragraph” suitable to be read out at a service, and the suggested Sentences, Prayers, and Readings for liturgical use. b) The Māori material was made available to the appropriate people in the respective tribal areas and not only were they checked by them but their approval was sought and obtained. The material may be the most straightforward source of information about both Māori and other commemorations from Aotearoa / New Zealand and the Pacific. c) The book effectively replaces The New Zealand Calendar 1980 in relation to the sections called (i) Saints’ Days and Other Commemorations (updated to fit the Calendar / Te Maramataka of A New Zealand Prayer Book – He Karakia Mihinare o Aotearoa, (ii) Sentences, Prayers and Readings for Other Special Days (updated to reflect the Prayer Book, page 13, these are formularies), and (iii) Sentences, Prayers and Readings for Various Occasions (see The New Zealand Calendar, pages 54-63, 90). For useful resources to replace the weekday and seasonal sections for Advent, Lent, and Eastertide from The New Zealand Calendar (pages 64-89), refer Ken Booth’s Advent to Easter (1992), The Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia Liturgical Commission’s publication, From Ashes to Fire (1990), or other Anglican or ecumenical resources.

  • Diocesan Prayer Cycle
    DIOCESAN CYCLE OF PRAYER January 2019 USING THIS CYCLE OF PRAYER This edition of the Diocesan Cycle of Prayer follows the same general form as its predecessor. It follows a simple monthly cycle. On each day parishes and other ministry units in the Diocese are listed, together with a range of diocesan and national church bodies. Unfortunately space limitations preclude listing the names of Local Shared Ministry Support Teams. Including only the names of local clergy in these teams could have suggested a higher degree of ‘status’ than for lay members of these teams. Including the names of the enablers in each unit could have implied that they were the equivalent of Vicars – which they are not. The growth of local shared ministry produces unexpected problems! Similarly, names of lay staff in parishes are not included. In the past, licensed lay ministers have been included but not those who, for various reasons, have not been licensed. It is simply too difficult to draw up a comprehensive list but we will keep trying to think of a solution! There is certainly no intention of focusing only on clergy. It is acknowledged that many lay workers provide indispensable service to their ministry units. Reference is made to pastorates of Tikanga Maori and parochial districts of the Diocese of Polynesia located within the geographical area of the Diocese. Note, however, that these do not come within the jurisdiction of the Diocese but are included as a symbol of partnership. Clergy with a permission to officiate and widows of clergy are listed in alphabetical sequence throughout the course of the monthly cycle.

  • Blain Biographical Directory of Anglican Clergy in the Diocese of Honolulu 1862-1902 Final Edition (2012, Corrected 2018)
    Blain Biographical Directory of Anglican clergy in the diocese of Honolulu 1862-1902 final edition (2012, corrected 2018) The “Reformed Catholic Church of Hawai’i” began with the consecration of the first bishop of Honolulu, Thomas Nettleship STALEY in 1861. In 1872 the diocese became the “Anglican Church of Hawai’i”, under his successor Alfred WILLIS the second and final bishop of Honolulu. On WILLIS’s resignation in 1902, the see became the missionary district of Honolulu within the Episcopal Church of the United States of America, and in 1969 the diocese of Hawai'i. This biographical directory lists some 58 clergy who passed through the diocese of Honolulu in the first forty years of Anglican church life. Few priests were in the diocese more than a year or two. Several lives are evasive shadows. The Honolulu church initiative confronted a complex changing society in Hawai’i. Their royal patrons and the indigenous Polynesian people were pressed aside as the commercial interests of North American (and European) planters drove all before them. Their plantations were worked by imported Chinese and Japanese workers among whom the diocese did begin work. The inadequacies of diocesan leadership and the crippling lack of funding overwhelmed quixotic hopes, leaving a divided and worn Anglican remnant to be rescued by the Episcopal church of the USA in 1902. While these entries were compiled from the best evidence available, the compiler had no access to primary documents in Honolulu. The full Blain Biographical Directory of Anglican Clergy in the South Pacific (which includes about 1,500 priests) may be found on the Project Canterbury website http://anglicanhistory.org/nz/blain_directory/ That directory was compiled without funding but with assistance from hundreds of correspondents and agencies from 1991.
