Highlights from the Diocesan Global Gathering on Sunday 4th September 2022

We gathered together to celebrate our global connections and partnerships and hear from Bishop Ian and Bishop Marinez from our partner diocese in Amazonia.

A day of gathering, celebration and worship

Bishop Ian’s address and Lambeth update

Bishop Marinez’s greeting from Amazonia

Breakout sessions

Many around our diocese enjoyed a full, lovely day celebrating our global partnerships and strengthening our relationship among our community.

 

After fellowship in the chapter house and opportunity to browse all the displays from charges highlighting their global connections, Bishop Ian welcomed everyone in the cathedral sanctuary, and dispersed us to four different small sessions where we heard about global and local climate action, youth links between our diocese and Amazonia, and specific situations in Israel, Palestine and Ethiopia.

The focus then turned to Bishop Ian’s updates from the Lambeth Conference in August in which bishops from all over the world gathered to meet and consider and celebrate God’s church for God’s world. In the middle of his presentation, we heard directly from Bishop Marinez in Amazonia who provided a lovely video greeting to us and echoed Bishop Ian’s sentiments on the importance of the Lambeth Conference.

 
The day culiminated with a beautiful Choral Evensong, based on a service used during the Lambeth Conference.

There was even a Peace Ambassor from Peru who showed up!

 

Many thanks to all who came, shared, participated in, coordinated and celebrated our global partnerships!

    On Good Friday we reflect on Christ’s suffering and death on the cross. This mossy tree on the river bank near Dunkeld may remind us of an interwoven cross.When Jesus had received the wine, he said, "It is finished." Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.John 19:30O Lord,look with mercy on this your family,for which our Lord Jesus Christ was willing to be betrayed,given up into the hands of sinners,and to suffer death upon the cross;who lives and reigns for ever and ever.Amen. ...

    On Maundy Thursday we reflect on Christ’s Last Supper with his disciples, when he washed their feet and shared his body and blood with them in the form of bread and wine. Today we are invited to wash one another’s feet in loving service. In warmer weather many meals are shared at these café tables in Cambo Gardens, near St Andrews.Jesus said, “You do not know now what I am doing, but later you will understand."After he had washed their feet, had put on his robe, and had reclined again, he said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you? You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for that is what I am. So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.”John 13:7, 12-14O God, in the fullness of time you revealed your lovein Jesus the Lord,who on the eve of his death,as a sign of your covenant,washed the feet of his disciplesand gave himself as food and drink:Give us life at this sacred banquetand joy in humble service,that, bound to Christ in all things,we may pass over from this world to your kingdom;where he lives with you now and alwaysin the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever.Amen.God our Father, as you invite us to share in the supperthat your Son gave to his Churchto proclaim his death until he comes:inspire us by his service, and unite us in his love;who lives and reigns with you,in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end.Amen. ...
