Easter Inspire 2019Web Easter 2019 www.stmaryletower.org.uk Dear Friends, Is there life after Brexit? From the way that some people carry on passionately about Brexit, whether a supporter of Remain or Brexit, it might appear that many people fear that not getting everything they want will indeed be the end of the world, or at least the end of the Country as we know it, and so compromise becomes unthinkable. As I write, the UK has just been granted a seven month extension to Article 50. Remainers are relieved; Brexiters are furious; and still there is no solution in sight. Moreover, the tribal nature of British party politics means that the majority of our MPs, who are actually in the broad centre of the political spectrum, are also unwilling to compromise for fear either of splitting their own party, or else handing another party significant political advantage, or even being deselected by their constituency party members. And behind this is the fear that the days of broad-based political parties are numbered, as increasing numbers of voters feel unrepresented by such broad-based groupings. On top of all this, we can now see that the Referendum campaigns both for Leave and for Remain were actually awful both of them. Project Fear on one side and Project Fantasy on the other, meant that there was a very high degree of unreality about the whole debate. This is the real reason why the Referendum result has completely failed to bring the country together; no one now thinks that the right debates were had, and this is hugely frustrating for everyone. Brexiters didn’t talk about a difficult no-deal Brexit leading nevertheless to a better long term future for the Country. And Remainers didn’t talk about it being worth sharing sovereignty to achieve a better future as Global Britain in Europe. This, the real Brexit debate, has still actually to take place, but the idea of another referendum is now so politically charged as to be not a viable solution. And so both sides are stuck fighting a political battle of attrition and trench warfare, hoping either to wear the other side down, or for something to turn up. Weathering the Storm Meanwhile, make no mistake, the political storm is still gathering strength. This extreme political storm for our country, like other extreme weather events, will indeed leave the landscape much changed. We cannot yet tell how the political landscape will look after the storm has passed, but the political life of our country will certainly need rebuilding, and the wounds will need to be healed. Continued on page 2 1 There will indeed be life after Brexit and we will all in fact be part of it. The most important question is what kind of people do we need to become, to help to heal a bruised and divided country. What are the healing strategies that can start even now? Firstly, we need to be ready to start working together again despite our differences. That’s what people do after storms have passed; come together and work together to rebuild; even when the storms are self-inflicted and the thing that really needs rebuilding is trust. And the key thing for everyone to re-learn here is that our unity as a nation matters more than our political differences. Perhaps the storm will have to get worse before enough people remember this. Secondly, rather than just getting angry, it is better to own up to the sadness of what has happened to our country in the Brexit storm. This is not easy as there is plenty to be angry about. But all the expression anger is not doing our Country or its people any good. It’s destructive rather than constructive. Rather it is time simply to be sad at what has happened to us, it’s time to mourn. Sadness, and not anger, will help us to be more ready to work together once more. Thirdly, it is time for a bit more humility from everyone. Things have not gone well and many mistakes have been made by all sides. It’s time to stop blaming the other side for our own mistakes. Brexiters need to recognise that they got their own Brexit strategy wrong and have failed to carry the country with them, and Remainers need to acknowledge that they lost the Referendum because they failed to articulate a positive vision for staying in the EU, and indeed are still failing to do so. And fourthly, it is time to reach out to those with whom we profoundly disagree. Rather than just moaning within our respective tribes, and rather than just trying to tell those with whom we disagree, how stupid or unpatriotic we think they are (or imagining such conversations), try asking them why their view is so very important to them. We need to talk together about our sadness at how disunited we have become as a country. We need to climb out of our political trenches and make friends of our neighbours once again. It’s time to recognise that our common humanity matters much more than anything else. At Holy Week and Easter, Christians celebrate the great reconciling work of God in Jesus. In Christ we, all of us, are reconciled to God (not the other way round) and logically this must include being reconciled to each other as one family. In fact we cannot really have the first without the second. Canon Charles 2 PARISH DIARY APRIL Mon 22nd Bank Holiday. Church Closed. Tues 23rd Choir Holiday.

And unlike previous drives to do this, this time the Church of England is putting in serious development resources locally, over £3 million, to fund the leadership and organisation needed. At last the scale of the task has been recognised, and clergy and laity are not just being told to work harder with fewer people. These posts are already being established, and the most high profile of these is the new Archdeacon of Ipswich, Rhiannon King, who will be with us at SMLT on Sunday 12th May at the 10.30 service. There are significant targets for this work. The project aims to reach a situation in which 10% of the population is being touched by the Church of England’s service to the wider community (like with Tower House); and 5% is actively involved in growing their Christian discipleship, their intentional following of Jesus, in some way. To achieve this, the project will support the planting of a significant number of new congregations, either as part of existing churches, or as separate entities, as there is considerable evidence that growth happens more dynamically in smaller church units. THE DEANERY LEARNING COMMUNITY However it is recognised and strongly affirmed as well that all this will not happen without the strengthening of existing congregations. And so the deanery has established two Learning Communities who will work over the next two years to strengthen the ability of every church in Ipswich to grow new disciples for Jesus. The team from SMLT comprises, Cathy Moss, Eunice Forsyth, Jo Jones, Sonia Docherty, and Vicky Moss, together with Canon Charles. There is room for one more, and it would be good to balance the team with another male or young person. The first session of our Learning Community took place as a day conference on Saturday 6th April, and each church has taken away some actions to work on. Our partner churches in this Learning Community are St Mary Stoke St Francis with St Peter (SWITM), St Mathew All Saints with Triangle (SMAST), St Thomas, St Mary Whitton, St Bartholomew, and St Augustine.

  • Joint Statement from Ipswich Christian Leaders- Final
    Joint Statement from Christian leaders in Ipswich in response to the killing of George Floyd Friday 5th June 2020 The killing of George Floyd was a tragic act of violence that has revealed that racial injustices, amongst many other prejudices, are still present throughout society. George Floyd was denied the fundamental right to life, and his killing is an insult to the God-given dignity of every human being. George Floyd’s death has provoked anger across the world and we, as church leaders in Suffolk, join with those who call for justice. Many people in our community face racial discrimination every day. This discrimination, expressed in many forms, all too often goes unchecked. We must unite to call out racism wherever we see it and hold one another accountable for our words and actions. We reaffirm our commitment to eradicating all forms of racism in all parts of society because every human life is precious and honoured by God. We ask you to join us to shine as lights in the darkness, to uncover the forces of prejudice and discrimination that still divide our community. Signatories: 1. Pastor Harold Afflu (Lead Pastor, Ipswich International Church, Elim) 2. The Rt Revd Martin Seeley (Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich, Church of England) 3. The Rt Revd Mike Harrison (Bishop of Dunwich, Church of England) 4. Rev. Peterson Anand (Minister of Nansen Road Baptist Church, Ipswich) 5. Rev Nick Atkins (St Matthew’s Church) 6.

  • Parish Share and Its Context
    Parish share and its context For Parish/ Benefice Treasurers and PCCs This is a short booklet to answer some of the questions we are most frequently asked, including: 1 What does parish share (formerly known as centenary share) pay for? 2 How is parish share calculated, what is the timing of budgets centrally and how these are agreed with benefices? 3 Who is who at the Bishop’s and Diocesan offices? 4 What is the relationship between a diocese and the national church, especially regarding parish share? This booklet is correct at the time of publication but will inevitably be overtaken by events – please check our website for the latest information: www.cofesuffolk.org/for-parishes/parish-administration/parish-share Issued March 2021 Revised Mary 2021 1 What does parish share pay for? 1.1 What is parish share? Parish share is the mechanism this diocese uses to divide the total diocesan costs of ministry and mission between each benefice. It is the payment made by parishes to the Diocesan Board of Finance (DBF). The DBF is the charity and the administrative hub for the Church of England in Suffolk. The parish share payment finances the following: • Cost of a priest in a benefice, covering the salary (stipend) and housing and pension costs • Archdeacons • Training costs of existing clergy and lay ministers • Development of future clergy and lay ministers for example ordinands, curates, pioneers, evangelists and children’s and families’ workers • Provision of mission-based resources • Church based advice • Safeguarding case work and training, overseen by the national church team • The diocesan office including administration of Diocesan Synod and the charity • The diocesan registrar, who looks after the legal aspects for both parishes and the diocesan office • Contributions to the national church, as required by General Synod (see section 4).

  • A Benefice Service of Holy Communion for the Feast of St Peter & St Paul
    A Benefice Service of Holy Communion For the Feast of St Peter & St Paul Fourth Sunday after Trinity Sunday 27th June 2021 Aldeburgh Parish Church President and Preacher: The Ven Jeanette Gosney Archdeacon of Suffolk Welcome Today is a multi-layered celebration. It is Aldeburgh’s Patronal Festival, and our readings speak of Patron Saints Peter and Paul. But it is a much more personal celebration too. Last year The Revd Johanna Mabey reached the end of her time as an Assistant Curate in training. At the same time The Revd James Marston was ordained Priest in our cathedral. In both cases we were not able to celebrate with them because of the Covid 19-related restrictions but today we can. We welcome our Archdeacon, The Ven. Jeanette Gosney, who will license Jo as an Assistant Priest in our benefice as well as presiding and preaching at our Patronal Festival service. And she will be assisted, in the role of Liturgical Deacon, by James. We thank Jo and James for all that they have already done for us and pray for their future ministry among us. We are very lucky to be able to share the ministry of Christ’s church with them. As long as the weather smiles on us please do stay and have some refreshments with us after the service – and hopefully we will be able to raise a glass to Jo, James and all that is to come. ¶ The Gathering In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. All Amen.
