Newman Association Programme 2019-2020
The Newman Association, Cleveland Circle “Promoting open discussion and further understanding in today’s Church” [http://newman.org.uk] Secretary: Mrs Lorraine Canning, Briarfield, 80 The Grove, Marton-in-Cleveland, Middlesbrough, TS7 8AP [email protected] Programme for 2019-20 All talks are held St Mary’s Cathedral Hall – 7:30 for 7:45pm Wednesday 18th September 2019 The Very Revd Dom Henry Wansbrough OSB ‘Blood of Martyrs, Seed of Church Unity: Anglican Roman Catholic International Commission and receptive ecumenism – significant progress?’ Born Joseph Wansbrough (in London, in 1934), Fr Henry is known as an English biblical scholar, Roman Catholic priest, and monk of Ampleforth Abbey. Currently, he serves as a member of the Anglican Roman Catholic International Commission (ARCIC III) but also holds numerous other positions as well; as Cathedral Prior of Norwich, Magister Scholarum of the English Benedictine Congregation, Chairman of the Trustees of the Catholic Biblical Association, Emeritus Member of the Faculty of Theology at the University of Oxford and Alexander Jones Professor of Biblical Studies within the Department of Theology, Philosophy and Religious studies at Liverpool Hope University. In addition, he’s a former Master of St Benet’s Hall, Oxford, a frequent contributor to Guidelines Bible reading notes (BRF) and editor of the Revised New Jerusalem Bible. It is, therefore, with great authority he will recall that during the sixteenth century a great deal of blood was heroically shed in religious persecution in England and consider whether it is now beginning to bear fruit. He will also explore what type of Church unity we hope to achieve.

PASTORAL PROGRAMME 2019 AMPLEFORTH ABBEY PASTORAL PROGRAMME 2019 You Are Welcome: “Come and See” “Master, Where Do You Live?” “Come and See” Said Jesus
AMPLEFORTH ABBEY PASTORAL PROGRAMME 2019 AMPLEFORTH ABBEY PASTORAL PROGRAMME 2019 You are welcome: “Come and See” “Master, where do you live?” “Come and see” said Jesus. (John 1:39) It does all of us good sometimes to come away for a while. To take some time to relax and unwind, to rediscover a sense of peace. To have an opportunity to come home to ourselves, to discover more deeply the mystery of our own spirit. To come close to Christ and his presence in our life. To receive the nourishment and support we need for our journey in faith, and to share that journey for a while with others. In the Rule of Saint Benedict Jesus asks “Who is there here who longs for life?” If your answer is “I do,” then Jesus’ invitation is simple and direct: “Come and see“. These are the very first words Jesus speaks in John’s gospel. “Master, where do you live?” “Come and see” he said. He invites us into his home, to spend time in his company. It is our privilege, as it has been for monasteries down through the centuries, to share in some way in Christ’s ministry of hospitality, to be able to welcome you to the place where we live and have ourselves discovered life. It is our vocation to serve Christ by creating a place of welcome, of prayer, of peace, of encounter. So we invite you to “come and see”. Perhaps you might like to come on an organised retreat, one of those you will discover later in this booklet.

Establishing an English Bible in Henry Viii’S England: Translation, Vernacular Theology, and William Tyndale
ESTABLISHING AN ENGLISH BIBLE IN HENRY VIII’S ENGLAND: TRANSLATION, VERNACULAR THEOLOGY, AND WILLIAM TYNDALE Janice James Submitted for the qualification of PhD University of York Department of History October 2011 ABSTRACT In the 1520s, thanks to the infiltration into England of Martin Luther’s books, the English government began a dedicated campaign to protect the country from heresy. Their efforts, though substantial, failed to stem the tide of heresy. Though he was living in exile in the Low Countries, William Tyndale was the leading vernacular spokesman of the first generation of English religious reformers. He was also England’s most talented early sixteenth-century Bible translator. Tyndale’s opponents perceived him to be the greatest threat to the preservation of the traditional faith in England. This thesis argues that Tyndale’s position in modern historiography does not accurately reflect the one he held in his own day and that the erroneous portrayal is due to an inadequate examination of important aspects of the coming forth of the first printed editions of the English Bible. The areas of neglect include: the extent of the Biblical content of orthodox vernacular religious books published prior to 1526, English authorities’ perceptions of the social and political impact of an English Bible, Tyndale’s motivations for translating the Bible, the English government’s rejection of Tyndale’s English New Testament, and Tyndale’s theological influence on later translations of the English Bible. Drawing on all of Tyndale’s published works, the body of vernacular religious writings printed between 1500 and 1525, and on the six cardinal English Bible translations between 1535 and 1611, this thesis demonstrates Tyndale’s significant contributions to the English Reformation.
