  • Calendar of Intercessions Michaelmas – Advent 2017
    Calendar of Intercessions Michaelmas – Advent 2017 to this edition of the prayer diary, following the Feast St Michael and All Angels until the first Sunday of Advent. There are now two Rochester cycles of prayer – ‘parishes’ and ‘extra- Welcome parochial’. This is an attempt to be a little more even handed with the additional groups who are prayed for as the year turns, and to include our church schools in our prayers. As usual, it’s a sizable document but designed to be quick and clear to read, and also to leave space for your own notes. Of course, you do not have to print it all out at once, and you’re welcome to reformat it, if you wish (a Word version is available from my blog, see website below). Sunday entries are designed to look at some of the bigger pictures in our Diocese – sometimes geographical (deaneries, archdeaconries, link dioceses) sometimes issues or activities (Vocations Sunday). If there is an aspect of diocesan life that you’d like included on a Sunday, do let me know. These are followed through the week by daily prayers from all over the diocese, and across the Anglican Communion, including the calendar of saints and other worthy people. Finally, there is space in the daily entries for you to note any prayer requests that have been made to you or your parish, or any special interests you want to remember in your prayers. Please contact me with any comments or suggestions – [email protected] or 01634 814439. I will also be pleased to provide large print copies to any who would find that helpful.

  • Christian Muslim Digest
    Christian-Muslim News Digest Issue 2(28) 2016 Introduction Welcome to the second issue of the Christian-Muslim News Digest for 2016. This issue looks at the rise in religious fervour in Egypt over the past few months, which has led to a slew of blasphemy cases in the country. It also features a report on the reactions from Christians and Muslims to a religious bill that has placed new restrictions on faith communities in Kaduna State, Nigeria. *** Blasphemy cases targeting Muslims and Christian in Egypt Two years have passed since the Muslim Brotherhood was ousted from power in Egypt over fear of political Islam, but a new rise in religious fervour has led to a succession of blasphemy cases in recent months. Though President Abd el-Fattah al-Sisi came to power by promising to eliminate religious extremism and is generally popular among Christian Copts, Egypt’s largest religious minority, authorities continue aggressively to pursue those who insult Islam. In February, three Coptic teenagers were sentenced to five years in prison on the charge they were mocking Islamic prayers, even though they insisted that in the video used to convict them they were not mocking Muslim prayer but recent beheadings performed by members of Islamic State. A few months earlier, a Christian from a village near Luxor received a six-year prison sentence for posting an offensive cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad on Facebook, though he said he had no memory of the cartoon. There have also been a number of high-profile blasphemy cases involving Muslims in recent months.

  • Cycle of Prayer
    Cycle of Prayer 13 January - 11 May 2019 Diocese of Chester Receive the daily Cycle of Prayer on: www.facebook.com/dioceseofchester Key: C = Clergy LM = Licensed Lay Minister (Reader) (Pastoral Worker) (Youth Worker) Diocesan entries from the Anglican Cycle of Prayer are in italics. 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 This Cycle of Prayer is a reminder to pray. The best reminders have a regular rhythm about them. The reminders of the importance of family life naturally take the form of anniversary events and celebrations. The Christian Year was established for just this purpose, building upon the annual rhythm of ritual and celebration which was well developed in Jewish life. Christmas, Easter, and all the other features and festivals of the Christian Year, are there to remind us of key features of the Gospel story, and the life of the Church. The diocesan daily Cycle of Prayer is provided as a reminder to pray – and a reminder of the central importance of prayer to the Church, and the Christian life. +Peter Face painting in Edgeley Welcome ‘It seems to me their faith is too much about religion and not enough about Christianity.’ The speaker was describing a couple much involved in the life of their local church who had left a lonely aged parent needing assistance to his own devices. The criticism caused me to ponder on my perhaps too easy promise to pray for people.
