Dear Friends, for Today's Update, Richard Brand, Archdeacon Of
Dear Friends, For today’s update, Richard Brand, Archdeacon of Winchester, has shared a reflection about the importance of self care as we approach Holy Week: One recent request I received was to fill in a questionnaire about clergy morale in the current crisis. Having spoken and listened to far more clergy than usual over the past few weeks I felt in a reasonable position to respond, and my basic response was that clergy morale was high, in fact, really very high. It has been immensely encouraging and often inspiring to hear of the creativity, ingenuity and sheer dedication with which clergy have adapted to a rapidly changing situation and adopted often unfamiliar ways and means of continuing their ministry. However, I wonder what the real effect of this adaption and adoption is? One person I spoke to said how ‘energised’ they felt by the new skills they were learning and by the community networks they were establishing; in the next phone call the person had been doing similar things but this time I heard a confession of exhaustion. Clearly different personalities are responding in different ways; another person in one breath said how as an introvert they certainly weren’t missing the tyranny of meetings but in the next added that they were finding the constant phone calls draining. Talking with colleagues we are finding that as clergy step up and respond with great faithfulness to our calling in these days, the suspension of so many of the familiar patterns is leading for some to suspending some of the usual time off and down time we all need.

Diocese of Winchester’S Companion Links, As Is Customary at Confirmation Services
The Benefice of St John’s Hartley Wintney with Elvetham, St Mary’s Winchfield and All Saints’ Dogmersfield The Institution as Vicar of The Rev’d Angie Smith by The Rt Rev’d David Williams Bishop of Basingstoke & Induction by The Ven Richard Brand Archdeacon of Winchester in St John’s Church, Hartley Wintney 9th December at 7.30pm This page would usually contain a biography of the person being instituted and installed, but I think most of you reading this will have heard enough stories about me, scattered through my preaching to stitch together a biography yourselves! If there are any gaps you could refer to the excellent article in Contact magazine by Irene Airton in November 2017 or ask a member of Revive or Naomi’s Watch who might remember a few stories I told them or disks I chose for my desert island. Instead, I thought I would just explain my musical choices for the service this evening because I think they say everything you need to know about me: I love the seasons in nature and the Christian calendar. The autumn falling of the seed to the ground and its springing up from the dark earth illustrates for us death and resurrection, supremely of Jesus, but also for so many things in our own lives, things we cling onto but have to allow to die for new life to come in their place. The Christian calendar ensures that we journey through the darkness and into the light, that we mourn and grieve and also rejoice and sing.

Dear Friends, As We Approach the Coming Weekend, We Are Once
Dear Friends, As we approach the coming weekend, we are once again facing a Sunday without being able to physically join our local communities. Whilst we know that the Church is not just a series of (now closed) buildings, it is difficult to not be able to pray and participate in services in one place. However, we have been heartened by the work being done by so many of you to create ways of enabling Christian communities to meet online – whether through celebrating services on Zoom, holding pastoral Skype calls or creating social media prayer resources. Thank you for helping your communities to find ways of encountering God’s love at this most difficult of times. Today, the Archbishops and Bishops of the Church of England have written to all clergy to offer some suggestions for ways in which we can continue to minister to our communities (paying attention to those with access to the internet, as well as those who do not) at the present time. You can read the letter here and we hope you will find it useful. Ahead of this weekend, Bishop Tim and his wife Sally have recorded a communion service, which you will be able to view on our Diocesan YouTube channel from Sunday morning. Please do share the link so that we can still join together as one Diocese in prayer even though we cannot see each other in person. In addition, Winchester Cathedral is hosting a daily video reflection and prayer, which you can access here . Each day you will find a new prayer and reflection from members of the Cathedral community, which we hope you will find helps to provide some spiritual nourishment over the coming days and weeks.

Guidelines on Working with Retired Clergy
1. Introduction The 200 or so retired clergy (whether formerly stipendiary or SSM) who live, or worship, in the Winchester Diocese can now expect to have longer years of healthy retirement than ever before and many wish to continue in some form of active, post-retirement ministry. Many work successfully in ministerial roles in parishes, but the experience can be ‘hit and miss’ and can sometimes lead to frustration and underutilisation of a valuable resource. These Guidelines are an attempt to put the relationships between retired clergy, parish clergy and the Diocese on a firmer foundation to the benefit of all. 2. Expectations and Responsibilities for Parish Clergy 2.1 When a member of the clergy retires to your parish or you move into a parish where there is a retired priest, arrange to meet with them to discuss options for ministry within the parish. 2.2 Remember that the newly retired may find it helpful to take a ‘sabbatical’ for a while (six months is often used as a good rule of thumb here), as they discern what kind of future ministry God might be calling them to. 2.3 In agreeing options, the parish needs to understand that the priest is retired and offering his/her services as a volunteer; often with other commitments (such as family). 2.4 It can be helpful to ascertain whether the retired priest is looking for regular opportunities for ministry or offering to be available for support where this might be needed. It may be that for reasons of church tradition (or other reasons) the retired priest is seeking to offer to help elsewhere in the Diocese.

Dear Friends* One of the Things We Have Been Hearing from Many
Dear friends* One of the things we have been hearing from many people recently is how grateful they are to be in contact with others. We hope that, through new and different means, you are also feeling connected, both practically and in the unity of the Spirit. We recognise that yesterday’s announcement about the closure of churches came as a shock to many. The buildings in which we worship are icons of God’s faithfulness to our communities throughout centuries, and a focus of our communal life, so it is painful to think of them empty, especially at this time of year. There has been some confusion about this decision, in part because some government advice (now being corrected) indicated that churches could remain open for private prayer, or for the recording or streaming of services. Both national and diocesan FAQs have been updated to make it clear that our church buildings should remain closed. The government has requested that we all stay at home unless it is absolutely necessary to leave for certain limited purposes. Our responsibility as churches, leaders and as Christians, is to model that for our friends and neighbours, expressing our solidarity with the vulnerable and those who are working to care for them by taking these extra precautions. Obviously, this is also a disappointment to those who had made plans and preparations for recording from the church buildings in which their communities are accustomed to worshipping. Ministers are being asked to record and live-stream prayer and worship from their homes where they are able to do so.

St Barnabas Southampton: Report of the Independent Reviewer
House of Bishops’ Declaration on the Ministry of Bishops and Priests St Barnabas Southampton: Report of the Independent Reviewer Introduction 1. On 21 December 2020 I received a letter from the PCC Secretary of St Barnabas Southampton, a resolution parish in the Winchester diocese, asking for assistance in relation to the diocese’s wish to abolish the parish and amalgamate it with St Mary’s Southampton, its neighbour and a non-resolution parish. The letter was copied to the Bishop of Winchester and others. 2. The letter explained that the PCC had unanimously passed a resolution on 20 December authorising an approach to me on the grounds that the bishop’s proposed action constituted discrimination against a resolution parish in the Catholic tradition, contrary to the House of Bishops’ Declaration. 3. After taking advice I responded on 7 January. I explained that there were statutory processes under the Mission and Pastoral Measure 2011 and that these were the means for challenging proposed pastoral reorganisations. It was not my responsibility to adjudicate on their merits. If, however, the PCC believed that the bishop had acted in a discriminatory fashion contrary to the terms of the House of Bishops' Declaration and its five guiding principles then that was potentially something within my remit to investigate under the House of Bishops' Declaration. 4. I added that before I decided whether to deal with the PCC's grievance and carry out a review I needed to know whether the PCC had given the bishop an opportunity to address the grievance. I also needed to know that the resolution authorising the bringing of the grievance was passed either by a majority of all the members of the PCC (including any absent from the meeting) or by a majority of those present, with at least two-thirds of the PCC being present.
