Bishop of Oxford Visit to
Deanery -
7:30 pm Tuesday 19th November, St Mary Church, Windsor End
Beaconsfield, HP92JW
The
Bishop of Oxford, the Rt Revd Steven Croft, will be spending the day in
Amersham Deanery, commencing with a meeting with the Clergy Chapter at
lunchtime, followed by a visit to Kingdom Kids at St George Little
Chalfont and Chiltern Hills Academy.
All PCC members, which
includes Deanery Synod members, are invited to a short service at St
Mary Beaconsfield starting at 7:30 pm. Bishop Steven will
give an
address, and this will be followed by a Question and Answer session
similar to that at his previous visit in May 2022.
The Deanery Synod is a meeting of elected lay church members and clergy
from the Deanery, meeting four times a year to discuss topics such as:
- the mission of the local churches;
- training and resources;
- stewardship and parish share;
- implementation of diocesan initiatives;
- items of interest from external speakers.
We elect members to the Diocesan Synod and so to the General Synod
where major debates and decisions are made regarding national church
life. The Standing Committee welcomes suggestions for topics
and speakers.
