Lent books are a bit of a curate’s egg Archbishop Justin has prayer as one of but this year I found Proff Luigi Gioia’s his three priorities.

Learned, accessible, Kingdom Come’ which is really a call encouraging, stretching, it demands to to prayer and the Cathedral will be be read and re-read. So, what was it hosting a major event on Sunday 13th that made such an impact? Well, it’s May with Bishop Nick. I invite you to not one of those how to books on ponder prayer, the place it has in your prayer. Helpful though they are this life and the desire that you have for book focuses more on what he calls God. As Luigi Gioia puts it, ‘This the posture of prayer. He’s not talking search for prayer therefore is the here about kneeling or standing with defining challenge of our lives, the only hands outstretched (the ancient reliable hope for meaning.' physical posture often used in the Dean Jerry church these days when the Lord’s Prayer is said) but rather about what is going on when we pray… our approach to God, framed by the Lord’s Prayer. He majors on prayer being about dwelling in the transforming presence of God, joining with the Spirit praying in us. He has some great material on prayer and time, moving mountains in prayer and gathering up the whole of life, every bit of it, good and bad in prayer. -

Welsh Disestablishment: 'A Blessing in Disguise'
Welsh disestablishment: ‘A blessing in disguise’. David W. Jones The history of the protracted campaign to achieve Welsh disestablishment was to be characterised by a litany of broken pledges and frustrated attempts. It was also an exemplar of the ‘democratic deficit’ which has haunted Welsh politics. As Sir Henry Lewis1 declared in 1914: ‘The demand for disestablishment is a symptom of the times. It is the democracy that asks for it, not the Nonconformists. The demand is national, not denominational’.2 The Welsh Church Act in 1914 represented the outcome of the final, desperate scramble to cross the legislative line, oozing political compromise and equivocation in its wake. Even then, it would not have taken place without the fortuitous occurrence of constitutional change created by the Parliament Act 1911. This removed the obstacle of veto by the House of Lords, but still allowed for statutory delay. Lord Rosebery, the prime minister, had warned a Liberal meeting in Cardiff in 1895 that the Welsh demand for disestablishment faced a harsh democratic reality, in that: ‘it is hard for the representatives of the other 37 millions of population which are comprised in the United Kingdom to give first and the foremost place to a measure which affects only a million and a half’.3 But in case his audience were insufficiently disheartened by his homily, he added that there was: ‘another and more permanent barrier which opposes itself to your wishes in respect to Welsh Disestablishment’, being the intransigence of the House of Lords.4 The legislative delay which the Lords could invoke meant that the Welsh Church Bill was introduced to parliament on 23 April 1912, but it was not to be enacted until 18 September 1914. -
Bradford Cathedral's Dean Jerry Lepine Is Setting Out

The period of ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ is a global prayer movement that invites Christians around the world to pray for more people to come to know Jesus. What started in 2016 as an invitation from the Archbishops of Canterbury and York to the Church of England has grown into an international and ecumenical call to prayer. Dean Jerry says: "As part of Bradford Cathedral's Centenary I am looking forward to praying in each of the three Cathedrals in this Diocese during Thy Kingdom Come.

Canon Precentor Information Pack
w Canon Precentor Information Pack A message from the Bishop and Dean Thank you for your interest in the post of Canon Precentor. This is a time of great opportunity for Wakefield Cathedral. As we begin to emerge from a tumultuous period in the life of our nation and the Church, we are being challenged to think afresh about the future shape of our ministry and mission. This thinking is informed by Chapter’s Strategic Vision, Firm in Hope, which was launched last Advent, and by the Leeds Diocesan Strategy, Maturing in Christ,which articulates a vision of Confident Christians, Growing Churches, and Transformed Communities. As one of the three cathedrals of the Diocese of Leeds, Wakefield Cathedral is ideally placed to support the Bishop in working towards this vision: our building, situated at the heart of the city, has been magnificently refurbished and offers enormous scope for a colleague who has an imaginative, creative and thoughtful approach to liturgy and worship and the way in which it can serve and enrich both our mission, and the mission of the Diocese of Leeds. We hope that you will consider prayerfully the possibility that God may be calling you to serve in this exciting role. May God bless you as you do so. +Nick Baines Simon Cowling Bishop of Leeds Dean of Wakefield If you would like an informal conversation with the Dean about this role, by telephone or Zoom, please arrange an appointment by contacting Bev Howes, Dean’s PA, in the cathedral office on 01924 373923 or [email protected] Please email your completed application form to: Neil Holland, Chief Operating Officer, Cathedral Centre, 8-10 Westmorland Street, Wakefield WF1 1PJ E: [email protected] T: 01924 373923 The closing date for applications is 12:00 on Friday 01 October 2021. -
