Prayer for the Day
O Lord, we beseech you mercifully to hear the prayers
of your people who call upon you;
and grant that they may both perceive and know
what things they ought to do,
and also may have grace and power faithfully to fulfil them;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
AFFECTED BY CORONAVIRUS
Keep us, good Lord,
under the shadow of your mercy.
Sustain and support the anxious,
be with those who care for the sick,
and lift up all who are brought low;
that we may find comfort
knowing that nothing can separate us from your love
in Christ Jesus our Lord.

AGRICULTURAL & RURAL CHAPLAINCY
SHERBORNE DEANERY
(Please read through - help is needed).
What is Agricultural & Rural Chaplaincy?
Sherborne Deanery organise a chaplaincy across in the market in Salisbury, which a number of farmers from this area go to. Also, we work in the Deanery, covering 41 parishes. We cover all this with just three chaplains.
Chaplaincy is about walking alongside people in the everyday ups and downs of life. It is all about:
- Being part of the fabric
- Being available to all who are part of that community
- Being immersed in everything that happens
- Being a listening ear
- Being a signpost where needed
- Being a regular and predictable presence
- Being a strategic presence
- Being part of the ordinary so that if the extraordinary happens you are already there
We work in the market and in the Deanery, visiting farms and rural business and giving support where needed. Farming has the highest rate of male suicide of any profession and therefore needs support. The church really does get involved in this, in many cases just listening, but sometimes passing the case on to specialists, such as medical, financial, farming or matrimonial just to name a few.
Market Chaplaincy is about being that presence in the livestock markets. Market Chaplaincy is in many respects very little different in nature from other chaplaincies, except perhaps that its contact group is broader. In a market the farmers, the dealers, the hauliers, the agents, the caterers, the vets and regulatory officers are as much part of the picture as the staff of the markets, and those who operate within them. Through Market Chaplaincy, the team are reaching out far and wide into the very rural, often isolated, agricultural community by means of a central place where many fleetingly come and go, week by week.
However, all this takes some managing and finances are need in terms of travel. All our chaplains are not paid but need to claim travelling where appropriate.
We need your help.
There are two ways you can help us.
Firstly, online via Online Banking. Our details are:
Account Name: Sherborne Deanery Synod
Sort Code: 60-19-12
Account No: 05518997
Reference: Rural Chaplains

Dorset Ride & Stride – Saturday 11th September 2021
The above photo shows participants of the ‘Ride & Stride’ taking a break at Caundle Marsh Church last weekend. Congratulations and thanks go to all who helped with the above in any way! So far, well over £1,000.00 has been raised!
(DHCT is a charity which raises funds to maintain and improve the fabric of our heritage of ancient Christian churches of all denominations. It offers support to over 300 churches through a network of Deanery area representatives and Parish Organisers. For more information vist www.dhct.org.uk)
The Parish Giving Scheme
Please see below the message from Bishop Karen, at the start of the Diocesan weeks of prayer and encouragement to us all on Generous Giving we are all encouraged to give whateverwe can to our church, on a regular basis, especially via direct debit, standing order, or the excellent Parish Giving Scheme on 0333 002 1260:
https://www.parishgiving.org.uk/home/
The House of God needs a regular income to manage its housekeeping bills in just the same way as we do at home!
Whether we are weekly church goers or very occasional - or anticipating a family wedding or baptism, or indeed the sad burials of our loved ones in our peaceful churchyards - we ALL need to support our local churches here in our benefice now, and for future generations in our villages.
The Three Valleys Benefice Annual Prayer walk (a pilgrimage walk covering most of the Churches in our benefice)
Our annual prayer walk around the Benefice took place on Wednesday 15th September. I understand that it’s about 35 miles and 12 hours of walking. A very misty start turning into a lovely sunny day.
After the visit of David Pain to Second Sunday it was decided to make money the focus of prayers.
Starting at Batcombe at about 6:30 am (6 am breakfast). Averaging about 3 miles an hour, and visiting our parish churches on average about 2 miles apart.
The order is Batcombe, Hilfield Friary, Hilfield, Hermitage, Glanvilles Wootton, Pulham, Holwell, The Borough, Bishops Caundle, Caundle Marsh, Folke, Longburton, Lillington, Beer Hackett, Thornford, Bradford Abbas, Clifton Maybank, Ryme Intrinseca, Yetminster, Chetnole, Leigh and back to Batcombe (with apologies to Holnest - the A352 is simply too dangerous to walk)
News of this year’s Sudans Day
This year's Diocesan Sudans Day, the main update on the current social and political situation in Sudan and South Sudan, and on the work of the Deaneries and the Sudans Committee, takes place at St. Francis' Church, Beatrice Road, Salisbury SP1 3PN on Saturday 9 October. Entitled 'Hope and a Future', the programme runs from 9.30 am to 4.00 pm. To book, please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or phone 01963 23726. The booking fee of £8, or £6 for the unwaged or where three or more people share one car, is payable on arrival. Speakers will include Agnes Oswaha, Ambassador of the Republic of South Sudan in London, and Jane Backhurst, Senior Adviser to South Sudan Christian Aid.

Bishop praises new graveyard mapping project
The Bishop of Ramsbury has praised a new Church of England project that will create a free digital map of every grave and feature in every churchyard in the country.
Bishop Andrew, who is a lead Bishop for church buildings said: “This impressive national project will make a huge difference to those researching family history, as well as easing the administrative burden on parishes.
“It will improve management of burial grounds, and make information more fully accessible than ever before, supported by additional services by subscription for those wishing to go further.
“It will soon be possible to visit almost any Anglican burial ground in the country and see in real time the location of burial plots. For those researching at distance in the UK or overseas, the digital records will place detailed information from churchyards at their fingertips.”
Church by church, and diocese by diocese, it is hoped that all Anglican churchyards will be surveyed over the next seven years. As well as capturing details of burials, the online interactive map will detail biodiversity in churchyards, including ancient trees and plant-life, as well as green technology such as solar panels.
The project includes around 19,000 churchyards, and the ancient churchyard of St Bega on the shores of lake Bassenthwaite in the Diocese of Carlisle is the first to be scanned by surveyors, using sophisticated laser equipment as part of the national programme.
A new website will go online next year giving free access to the map, which is expected to be of special interest to local community groups, conservationists, and those researching family history. The website will also enable the charting of biodiversity and green technology.
The Church of England has partnered with Cumbrian-based surveying company Atlantic Geomatics who will use backpack-mounted laser scanners to map churchyards quickly and accurately. They will also photograph all the visible headstones.
The ambitious scheme will aim to digitally survey the majority of the 19,000 Anglican burial grounds in England over the next seven years. Data on burials will be combined with other information, such as the National Biodiversity Network Atlas, to present the most complete picture of churchyards to date.
The project will come at no cost to parishes or dioceses in the Church of England, and parishes will have free access to the map through a new web-based record system which is set to launch in Spring 2022. There will also be the option to subscribe to additional services.
Substantial funding for the programme has been given by Historic England, with the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Caring for God's Acre supporting the pilot phase, as well as support from genealogy research websites, all of which has allowed the basic service to be made available to parishes free of charge.
Use of the latest surveying equipment and bespoke software built by Atlantic Geomatics has made the national-scale survey a possibility for the first time. Operatives will aim to survey around nine or ten sites a day using back-pack mounted laser scanning equipment, GPS and cameras. Taking tens of thousands measurements every second, the surveyors will then process the data to create accurate maps of each churchyard.
