  • St Wilfrid's Catholic Voluntary Academy
    ST WILFRID’S CATHOLIC VOLUNTARY ACADEMY ADMISSIONS POLICY 2021-22 Introduction St Wilfrid’s School is a Catholic Primary School in the Diocese of Hallam working in partnership in Our Lady Seat of Wisdom Umbrella Trust to provide education for children of Catholic families. Whenever there are more applications than places available, priority will be given to Catholic children in accordance with the oversubscription criteria listed below. The school is conducted by its Governing Body as part of the Catholic Church in accordance with its trust deed and articles of association. As a Catholic school, Catholic doctrine and practice permeate every aspect of the school’s activity. It is essential that the Catholic character of the school’s education be supported fully by all families in the school, therefore it is hoped that all parents will give their full, unreserved and positive support for the aims and ethos of the school. This does not affect the right of an applicant who is not Catholic to apply for and to be admitted to a place at the school in accordance with the admission arrangements. The Governing Body is the admissions authority and has responsibility for admissions to the school. The Local Authority undertakes the coordination of the admission arrangements during the normal admissions round. Details of the co-ordinated scheme can be obtained from the Authority. The Governing Body has determined the Published Admission Number (PAN), for pupils to be admitted to the Reception year in the school year 2021/22, to be 45. Pupils with an Education, Health and Care Plan or a Statement of Special Educational Needs The admission of pupils with a Statement of Educational Needs or an Education, Health and Care Plan is dealt with by a separate procedure.

  • Chapter Seven Wulfstan of Worcester: Revived by the Model with The
    Chapter Seven Wulfstan of Worcester: Revived by the Model With the explosion of the Becket cult from Canterbury in 1170, many other bishop- saints began to perform miracles again in order to aid the flow of pilgrims to Canterbury, and take advantage of the economic value of a new saint. Saints such as St Cuthbert, Bishop of Lindisfarne (d. 687), began performing miracles once more with renewed strength after a hiatus. Cuthbert had been ‘considered perhaps the most popular saint in England prior to the death of Thomas Becket in 1170’, 1 rivalling his cult rather than being eclipsed by it, 2 can be seen to have been working actively with Becket who sometimes even sent pilgrims to Cuthbert’s shrine for miracles. 3 Other cults emerged and re-emerged, allowing postulants who had been considered holy to prove themselves saints, such as that of William FitzHerbert, archbishop of York (d. 1154) who had performed a few miracles and was considered holy because his body had the odour of sanctity, according to his biographers writing in the 1160s; 4 however, it was not until 1177 that he began to perform miracles properly. 5 Wulfstan II, Bishop of Worcester, also soon began performing miracles alongside the other bishop-saints. Whereas William of York had emerged at the right time to take part in this miraculous 1 D.

  • The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ
    The Church of Saint Boniface June 6, 2021 The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ “This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many." (The Gospel) COMING HOME TO MASS A pastoral letter to the Diocese of Worcester My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, During this past year so much of our life has moved online, to a “virtual” reality, including Masses streamed from our churches. However, as much as technology has helped us to bridge somewhat the pandemic divide, virtual reality remains virtual and is not the same as being present at the celebration of Holy Mass in person. We only have to remember the longing we have felt to be present for a meal with family members or friends for anniversaries, weddings or birthdays. How much we yearned to see them face-to-face. It’s the same with Mass. As helpful as it has been to connect to our parishes virtually, it is nothing like gathering in person with our brothers and sisters at Sunday Mass. The celebration of the Eucharist is the source and summit of our lives as Roman Catholics. It is where Christ gives himself to us in his Body and Blood. Christ is present at every Mass, in his Word proclaimed, in a tangible way in his Body and Blood and in the person of his priest. He is present to feed us with Word and Sacrament, to embrace us with his love and to give us the grace we need to face the struggles of our daily lives.

  • York Minster's Chapter House and Its Painted Glass Narratives
    York Minster’s Chapter House and its Painted Glass Narratives Volume 1 of 3 Ann Hilary Moxon PhD University of York History of Art December 2017 Abstract This thesis focuses on the late thirteenth-century narrative glazing scheme of the chapter house in York Minster and the political and religious context of its design. Created as an intrinsic and integrated part of one of the most elaborate and important buildings in the period, the glass has suffered interventions affecting both its appearance and the positions of its narrative panels. By examining the glass in the context of contemporary visual and textual material, it has been possible to reconstruct the original order of the panels and to identify the selection of episodes the lives of the saints, some for the first time. The study has demonstrated the extent to which the iconography was rooted in liturgy and theology relevant to the period which, in turn, reflected the priorities of a dominant group among the active members of Chapter for whose use the building was constructed and, by extension, the contemporary Church. Further, the glass shows strong Mariological themes which reflected features in the rest of the decorative scheme and the architecture of the chapter house, indicating that the glazing scheme may have been conceived as part of the architectural whole. The conclusions are supported by parallel research into the prosopography of the contemporary Chapter which additionally suggests that the conception of the programme may have had its roots in the baronial wars of the

  • A Tour of Roman Catholic Post-War Churches in West and North West London Conceived and Organised by Robert Drake with Robert Proctor - 25 April 2015
    A TOUR OF ROMAN CATHOLIC POST-WAR CHURCHES IN WEST AND NORTH WEST LONDON CONCEIVED AND ORGANISED BY ROBERT DRAKE WITH ROBERT PROCTOR - 25 APRIL 2015 Church of Immaculate Heart of Mary, Hayes Introduction Registered charity no. 1110244 1 Introduction This event grew out of recognition from the increasing number of cases at Twentieth Century Society (C20) Casework sub-committee concerning post-war Roman Catholic churches that we needed to be able to assess their qualities both architecturally and as to fittings and to find out more about their architects. This was coupled with the Taking Stock process initiated by English Heritage (now Historic England) ten years ago of reviewing the architecture and fittings of all consecrated churches in the 19 English Roman Catholic Dioceses. To the surprise of many but not C20 a very high proportion, over 50% of those covered by Taking Stock, were Twentieth Century. In Greater London the proportion is probably even higher with suburban expansion and arrival of Catholic migrant communities particularly from Ireland but also Southern (notably Italy) and from Eastern more recently, with much higher proportions of churchgoers than in the general population. The Taking Stock process is almost complete with only one Diocese still to be started (East Anglia) and it is timely to focus on it as number of churches have already been listed as a result in the RC Dioceses of Shrewsbury, Plymouth, Southwark and Brentwood; more are currently being considered including in the Diocese of Westminster in which all the churches we are seeing today are located. A further impetus was the updating of C20’s list or gazetteer of Places of Christian worship 1914- 1990, originally published in our Journal no 3 (in 1998).

  • Presenting and Interpreting Medieval Saints Today in Canterbury, Durham and York
    Journal of Ethnology and Folkloristics 13 (1): 79–105 DOI: 10.2478/jef-2019-0005 “THE NARRATIVE IS AMBIGUOUS AND THAT LOCATION ISN’T THE RIGHT LOCATION”: PRESENTING AND INTERPRETING MEDIEVAL SAINTS TODAY IN CANTERBURY, DURHAM AND YORK TIINA SEPP PhD, Research Fellow Department of Estonian and Comparative Folklore Institute for Cultural Research and Fine Arts University of Tartu Ülikooli 18, 50090 Tartu, Estonia e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Drawing on research for the Pilgrimage and England’s Cathedrals, Past and Pre- sent project, this article explores how the project’s medieval case study cathedrals – Canterbury, Durham and York – present their saints and shrines, and how visitors react to and interpret them. While looking at various narratives – predominantly about saints in historical and contemporary contexts – attached to these cathedrals, I also aim to offer some glimpses into how people interact with and relate to space. I argue that beliefs and narratives about saints play a significant role in the pil- grimage culture of the cathedral. I will also explore how the lack of a clear central narrative about the saint leaves a vacancy that will be filled with various other narratives. KEYWORDS: saints • cathedrals • pilgrimage • Canterbury • Durham • York INTRODUCTION This article* will explore how three medieval cathedrals – Canterbury, Durham and York – present their saints and shrines, and how visitors react to and interpret them. * This research was supported by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (grant num- ber AH/ L015005/1). The article is based on research conducted between 2014 and 2018 for the Pilgrimage and England’s Cathedrals, Past and Present interdisciplinary research project.

  • Interactions Between Medieval Clergy and Laity in a Regional Context
    Clergy and Commoners: Interactions between medieval clergy and laity in a regional context Andrew W. Taubman Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of York Centre for Medieval Studies 2009 Taubman 2 Abstract This thesis examines the interactions between medieval clergy and laity, which were complex, and its findings trouble dominant models for understanding the relationships between official and popular religions. In the context of an examination of these interactions in the Humber Region Lowlands during the thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries, this thesis illustrates the roles that laity had in the construction of official and popular cultures of medieval religion. Laity and clergy often interacted with each other and each other‟s culture, with the result that both groups contributed to the construction of medieval cultures of religion. After considering general trends through an examination of pastoral texts and devotional practices, the thesis moves on to case studies of interactions at local levels as recorded in ecclesiastical administrative documents, most notably bishops‟ registers. The discussion here, among other things, includes the interactions and negotiations surrounding hermits and anchorites, the complaints of the laity, and lay roles in constructing the religious identity of nuns. The Conclusion briefly examines the implications of the complex relationships between clergy and laity highlighted in this thesis. It questions divisions between cultures of official and popular religion and ends with a short case study illustrating how clergy and laity had the potential to shape the practices and structures of both official and popular medieval religion.

Carpenter, University of Oxford PONTEFRACT PRIORY Cluniac priory of St John; dependency of La Charité-sur-Loire County of Yorkshire : Diocese of York Founded in 1090s In 1086 Ilbert de Lacy held a vast estate in England, including extensive lands in Yorkshire which formed one of the three castleries created in that county a little before the survey (DB, i. 315a–318b; § 9. W1–144), in which there was no mention of Pontefract or its castle. He would build the castle at the place which came to be known as Pontefract, and, to judge from his grandson’s charter, he made a valuable grant of tithes to endow a chapel of St Clement in the castle ‘pro salute Willelmi regis maioris, Willelmi filii eius, et filiorum ipsorum’, which was dedicated by Archbishop Thomas before 1100 (Farrer, Early Yorkshire Charters, iii. 185, no. 1492).1 After 1087 Ilbert was confirmed in the castlery by William II (W2/000, Regesta 372b), and his son Robert de Lacy was granted succession to his father’s estates at some time between 1091 and 1100 (W2/000, Regesta 312).

Ethelbert,the King of Kent, had already married a Christian princess called Bertha from Gaul. She brought with her to England Bishop Luidhard. Kent at this time was the dominant power in the south east. St Augustine had 40 men with him and landed, or so it is supposed, at Ebbsfleet, on the island of Thanet. Tthe king allowed him to settle and preach. The King was converted and many were baptised. The Pope granted St Augustine the pallium thus making his status that of an Archbishop. St Mellitus was consecrated Bishop of London, the then capital of the East Saxons, and St Justus as Bishop of Rochester. Both came from Rome. St Lawrence was consecrated to succeed St Augustine. He died in 604. As London closed its doors, St Mellitus became the 3rd Archbishop of Canterbury. He died in 624. St Justus was the fourth Archbishop. All were buried in St Augustine's Abbey at Canterbury 3 Baptism of King Ethelbert by St Augustine in the river Medway along with 2000 of his people 4 St Augustine and Ethelburt summoned the British bishops to a meeting. At their meeting St Augustine did not rise to greet them, and for lack of humility, as they saw it, they would not submit to him.
