Everything known about James Edmeston, writer of this hymn, seems is to be found in a single paragraph, leaving us to try to make deductions about his thoughts as If you wish to book a group he wrote the hymn. Perhaps, putting what we know of his life, together with the (with a maximum 20 at a time) words he wrote, we can form some impression of what his faith meant to him. He was then please contact the Parish Office: born in 1791, in Wapping in east London. From an evangelical family, Edmeston was baptised at Bull Lane Independent Chapel in Stepney where his mother‟s father served 01206 322136 as pastor for some fifty years. Educated in Hackney, where his family had moved, [email protected] Edmeston trained as an architect and surveyor, starting out on his career in 1816, when he was 25. He became known for having Sir George Gilbert Scott articled to TOWER FLAG DAYS THIS MONTH him for training. It may have been the literary qualities of the Book of Common Prayer that Thursday 2 June Ascension Day prompted Edmeston to leave the Independent tradition in which he grew up and to Friday 10 June become a member of the Established Church. In 1866, a year before his death, H.R.H. Prince Philip's 9Oth Birthday reflecting on his life, he wrote, „From early years I had a strong leaning towards the Sunday 12 June Pentecost Church of England, the service of which I always found more congenial to my own Sunday 19 June Trinity feelings.‟ He was concerned with the practical as well as the spiritual welfare of children and he was a strong supporter of the London Orphan Asylum. From the Registers This hymn first appeared in „Sacred Lyrics’, a collection of Edmeston‟s writing that was published in 1821; it is the only one of the 2,000 hymns he wrote that is still BAPTISM in regular use. The hymn is titled „A Hymn to the Trinity’ in one collection, and we see 1 May 2011 Athalia Florence DRAPER the verses beginning with Father, Saviour and Spirit.

  • ARCHITECTURE, POWER, and POVERTY Emergence of the Union
    ARCHITECTURE, POWER, AND POVERTY Emergence of the Union Workhouse Apparatus in the Early Nineteenth-Century England A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Gökhan Kodalak January 2015 2015, Gökhan Kodalak ABSTRACT This essay is about the interaction of architecture, power, and poverty. It is about the formative process of the union workhouse apparatus in the early nineteenth-century England, which is defined as a tripartite combination of institutional, architectural, and everyday mechanisms consisting of: legislators, official Poor Law discourse, and administrative networks; architects, workhouse buildings, and their reception in professional journals and popular media; and paupers, their everyday interactions, and ways of self-expression such as workhouse ward graffiti. A cross-scalar research is utilized throughout the essay to explore how the union workhouse apparatus came to be, how it disseminated in such a dramatic speed throughout the entire nation, how it shaped the treatment of pauperism as an experiment for the modern body-politic through the peculiar machinery of architecture, and how it functioned in local instances following the case study of Andover union workhouse. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Gökhan Kodalak is a PhD candidate in the program of History of Architecture and Urbanism at Cornell University. He received his bachelor’s degree in architectural design in 2007, and his master’s degree in architectural theory and history in 2011, both from Yıldız Technical University, Istanbul. He is a co-founding partner of ABOUTBLANK, an inter-disciplinary architecture office located in Istanbul, and has designed a number of award-winning architectural and urban design projects in national and international platforms.

That may be ex pecte d shortly from another hand and in another form . This is a more modest , and certainly a more popular, service rendered to - the Church , the class room , and the Christian home .

    ALL SAINTS CHURCH BOYNE HILL MAIDENHEAD PARISH NEWS www.allsaintsboynehill.org.uk Issue 26 9 September 2020 Dear Parishioners and Friends of All Saints, Boyne Hill, Last Saturday Rod Broad, as a member of the House of Laity, and myself as a member of the House of Clergy joined via zoom about 130 other members of the Oxford Diocesan Synod. In this newsletter I am attempting to share with you some of the content of Bishop Steven’s presidential address and the ‘Shed Talk’ that we were encouraged to listen to from the Bishop’s Chaplain, Fr Paul Cowan. I begin with some of Bishop Steven’s thoughts. Steven began by encouraging us to think about the words from scripture that will be the Diocesan ‘Dwelling in the Word’ this year. The text is from Philippians 1: 27- 2:13. As I listened to the text I was struck by the reading that I had done in preparing the recorded service on St Aidan, The Bishop of Lindisfarne, last week. Aidan was from the monastic community at Iona and travelled to Northumbria where he used Holy Island as a place of prayer that led to missional action. The Island, as anyone that knows it will be aware, is at some points an Island for prayer and retreat from the mainland and then when the tide goes out becomes a place to reach out to the mainland for missional activity. Verse three of the text says ‘Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves.

    ALL SAINTS CHURCH BOYNE HILL MAIDENHEAD PARISH NEWS www.allsaintsboynehill.org.uk Issue 65 7 July 2021 Dear Parishioners and Friends of All Saints, Boyne Hill, I begin this week by offering a big thank you to the sixteen women who made up the GoodGym team who visited All Saints last Wednesday evening. Ken Smith and I welcomed the ladies along with our Polish friend Adam (who is doing wonderful work around the church grounds) as they jogged, ran, walked and cycled their way to the church. On arrival at 7.00pm they went straight into action and in one hour they made the Quadrangle look the best it has appeared for quite some time. All the weeds and grass around the edges of the grass were pulled away and neatly bagged up ready for the tip. Other members of what, I believe, represented a record turn-out for a local group turned their hands to painting the skirting boards within the Parish Centre where we are currently worshipping. It was a wonderful evening with the members in their bright red GoodGym tops offering community work with smiles on their faces. It was humbling to receive this outstanding community work and they are going to return on 21st July to finish the painting in the Parish Centre. It was National Thank You Day on Sunday so from all at the church we thank the GoodGym members for their example of keeping fit and by offering support to the local community. There is a link to Amy Lovell’s excellent report on the evening on the email.

  • Granaries, Shipyards and Wharves
    Maritime Rotherhithe HISTORY WALK WALK B: SHIPYARDS, GRANARIES AND WHARVES by Stuart Rankin TOP: LOOKING ACROSS TO THE DOG & DUCK STAIRS FROM THE SITE OF BLIGHT’S YARD. BELOW: SHIP UNDER REPAIR AT MILLS & KNIGHT LTD., NELSON DOCK IN THE 1940S. COVER IMAGES: TOP: THE MASSIVE FORMER GRAIN WAREHOUSE AT GLOBE WHARF. BOTTOM: THE HOWLAND GREAT WET DOCK C1710, SHOWING THE SHIPYARDS EITHER SIDE OF THE ENTRANCE. The walk in this booklet is presented as an itinerary exploring the maritime history of Rotherhithe. The theme of Walk “B” is “Shipyards, Granaries and Wharves”; it begins at Surrey Quays underground station, and follows the south side of Greenland Dock to the River Thames. The route then follows the river upstream, visiting the sites of several shipyards, where vessels of international historic significance were constructed, passing some of the imposing granaries, and the wharves, which eventually were to replace shipbuilding as the main industrial activity on this stretch of the river. It ends at the Surrey Entrance Lock, with the option of a short walk to Rotherhithe Station, or of taking a bus for a quicker return. Surrey Quays station to Surrey Entrance Lock can be walked in 1 2 /2 to 3 hours. Once having left Greenland Dock, this walk offers some flexibility for those who prefer a shorter outing (or discover that the weather is not going to be quite as good as was hoped!). At no point is the later part of the route more than a few minutes walk from a bus stop. Few areas of London have undergone as much change from war damage, post war reconstruction and redevelopment in the 1980s and 1990s.

Tidball A thesis presented to the University of Keele for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 1981 i. PREFACE The task of mission has been of paramount importance to the church ever since she received her commission from her resurrected Lord (Matt. 28: 19). But the experience of the church in England during the twentieth century, which has caused many to question her ability to survive, has brought a fresh urgency to the task of mission at home. Even among those who are confident of its future there is a recognition that her survival depends on her adopting a missionary role and overcoming the false assumption that she is self-sufficient merely as a pastoral community. The Nonconformists have historically been more consistently missionary in orientation than the Established Church and a study of the rise and development of their home missionary work in the nineteenth century is richly rewarding for an understanding of our own day. This is especially true in the light of the fact that the twentieth century church has inherited many of the structures and attitudes of the last century whilst not being so willing to adopt the same adventurous creativity.

    St Paul’s Church, Knightsbridge The Diocese of London The Solemn Eucharist The Fourth Sunday of Easter Sunday, 11th May 2014 at 11 a.m. Welcome to St Paul’s Knightsbridge, part of the Diocese of London and a church of the worldwide Anglican Communion. If you are visiting us from another church, please make yourself known to the sidesmen or to one of the clergy after the service. Members of all Christian churches are welcome to share with us in this Eucharist – and those who do not wish to receive the Sacrament are invited to approach the altar at the time of Communion, to receive a blessing. There is a loop system in the lower parts of the church for the benefit of the hearing-impaired. Hearing aid users should switch their devices to ‘T’. During the service a collection will be taken for the work of the church in this parish, throughout the Diocese of London and further afield. Please use the special envelopes at the end of each pew to maximise your giving through the ‘Giftaid’ scheme. Members of the congregation are asked to ensure that mobile phones are switched off (or to silent) and are reminded that the taking of photographs or the making of audio or video recordings during services is prohibited. Cover image: Bishop’s Crozier, Italian 13th C. 2 Order of Service The Introductory Rite At 11 a.m. a bell is rung. The Servers and Sacred Ministers enter and process to cense the High Altar before returning to the platform. All stand to sing: ENTRANCE HYMN All people that on earth do dwell, sing to the Lord with cheerful voice: him serve with fear, his praise forth tell, come ye before him and rejoice.
