SUMMARY:‘Theology & Pop Music' – Seminar with the Revd Canon Ivor Moody
DESCRIPTION:‘Theology & Pop Music’: Finding the Sacred in the Secular: A Conversation Between Theology and Pop Music \nHosted by the Diocese of Newcastle’s Continuing Ministerial Formation (CMF) group\, this monthly seminar series takes place on the first Thursday of each month\, exploring the rich and surprising intersections between theology and other disciplines. \nJoin Ivor Moody on Thursday 4 December for ‘Theology & Pop Music’\, gathering at 3:30pm for a 4pm start. \nSurrounded by a society seemingly immersed in an ever increasing secularism Ivor takes famous\, trans-generational secular songs\, and sees how we might use them to throw new light on the scriptures\, faith and church; it is an exploration of new ways to deepen our Christian understanding\, not by turning our backs on secularism but embracing it\, to see how modern ‘soundbites’ can throw fresh light on ancient truths. \nNow retired\, Ivor Moody has been Vice Dean and Canon Pastor of Chelmsford Cathedral since 2010. He was Chair of the Mid-Essex Inter Faith Forum and also Chair of Essex Mind and Spirit\, a community voluntary organisation which seeks to promote positive relationships between faith and spirituality and mental health issues\, and to challenge the stigma which often surrounds mental health. He also served as Chaplain to the Essex County Council. \nThis event is FREE to attend – all are welcome!\nBooking essential. Please RSVP by emailing c.pacitti@newcastle.anglican.org \nPlease note: This seminar will take place in an upstairs room at Newcastle Cathedral\, which is accessible via lift.

SUMMARY:‘Theology& AI: Living as a Human in an AI World’ – Seminar with The Revd Canon Dr Tim Bull
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the Diocese of Newcastle’s Continuing Ministerial Formation (CMF) group\, this monthly seminar series takes place on the first Thursday of each month\, exploring the rich and surprising intersections between theology and other disciplines. \nJoin the Revd Canon Dr Tim Bull on Thursday 6 November for ‘Theology& AI: Living as a Human in an AI World’\, gathering at 3:30pm for a 4pm start. \nArtificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming our lives and reshaping our future. It raises profound questions in the areas of ethics\, truth\, privacy\, creativity and what it means to be made in the image of God. Should we embrace this technology with open arms or approach it with caution? How should we live as Christian disciples in a world of AI? How might AI inform or challenge our faith? \nWhether you’re a tech enthusiast or just curious – and whether you’re a believer or not – this session will open your eyes to new ways of thinking and give you plenty to ponder. We will be guided in our exploration by the Revd Canon Dr Tim Bull. \nTim is a true polymath with PhDs in both computer science and theology. Before ordination\, he worked as a chartered software engineer\, and during his ministry\, he has taught in the areas of preaching\, leadership and Christian ethics. He is a residentiary canon at St Albans Cathedral\, a member of the Church of England’s Mission and Public Affairs Council\, and a founder of the AI Christian Partnership. \nTim’s talk on AI was “really accessible\, brilliantly communicated\, engaging and downright fun\, and the students absolutely loved it. They have been talking about it ever since!” — A theological college principal. \nWhile pre-booking is not essential\, it would be very helpful for organising refreshments and seating arrangements.  Please note: This event will take place in a space at Newcastle Cathedral that is accessible via lift. Details on how to access the space will be sent in advance.

SUMMARY:Calming the Storm: A Workshop Using Visio-Divina and Mindful Photography to Explore 'Jagged Edges'
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a contemplative workshop exploring and responding to ‘Jagged Edges’\, an exhibition of printmaking\, poetry and music created by and for survivors of church-related abuse. \nLife is a beautiful gift\, but that gift can have a jagged edge which wounds and leaves us in a place of fear. Jesus’ seagoing disciples were terrified when a storm blew up\, threatening to sink the boat on which their lives depended. Their fear drove them to Jesus\, who said\, ‘Peace\, Be Still.’ Through the practice of contemplative (mindful) photography\, we will explore ways in which we can pay attention to self and environment\, learning to walk with our emotions and find Peace. \nAfter lunch\, we will use the Jagged Edges installation to ‘Be Still’ through the spiritual discipline of visio-divina. This practice can help us tell our own story and be a witness to the stories of others\, enabling us to journey towards a life lived in all its fullness. All you will need is a camera or smartphone\, and a willingness to try something new. \nThis workshop will take place in the Cathedral’s Education Room\, which is wheelchair accessible.\nIf you have any questions or find that you can no longer attend\, please email Dr Maggi Creese\, Lead Officer\, Chaplaincy to Survivors – m.creese@newcastle.anglican.org \nAbout Steve Radley\, who will deliver the workshop:\nSteve is a practical theology doctoral student\, researching healing from moral injury through photographic practices of visio-divina. He holds a BTh (hons) in theology\, MSc in Psychiatry & War\, is an accredited mindfulness facilitator\, and holds certificates in counselling and MHFA. He has personal experience of mental ill-health\, having suffered from depression and anxiety following his war deployment to Afghanistan and the Gulf as an RAF Chaplain. His ministry brings together this study and personal experience. \n‘Jagged Edges’ Exhibition Launch Event

SUMMARY:'Jagged Edges' Exhibition Launch Event
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a short prayer service\, followed by refreshments and the opportunity to explore our new exhibition\, ‘Jagged Edges’\, and meet the artists. \nIn ‘Jagged Edges’\, the artists have drawn on their own experiences of abuse and moral injury in a church context to make meaningful connections between the familiar story of Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection\, and the experiences of those harmed in Christian churches. These survivors are inviting us to look at Jesus’ trauma and see his story as one of abuse and of God’s love for and solidarity with those who have been abused. They are also reaching out to the rest of the Church with an invitation to engage in the work of healing the broken relationships in Christian communities. \nThis is a free event with no pre-booking required. \nFor any enquiries\, please contact Maggi Creese at m.creese@newcastle.anglican.org \nClick here to learn about the Diocese of Newcastle’s Chaplaincy to Survivors. \nImage: ‘Crucify Him!’ by Sarah Troughton. \n‘Jagged Edges’ Exhibition Launch Event

SUMMARY:'Jagged Edges' Printmaking\, Music & Poetry Exhibition By David Creese\, Peter Locke and Sarah Troughton
DESCRIPTION:Jagged Edges is an exhibition of printmaking\, poetry and music created by and for survivors of church-related abuse. The artists – David Creese\, Peter Locke and Sarah Troughton – draw links between their own experiences and the story of Jesus as he approached his crucifixion. \nContent warning: This exhibition includes images of torture (crucifixion) and references to moral and spiritual injuries caused by church-related abuse. \nThe Biblical ‘Stations of the Cross’ trace the path from Pilate’s house\, where Jesus was condemned to death\, to Calvary\, where he was crucified. The Chaplaincy to Survivors in the Anglican Diocese of Newcastle brought together Sarah\, David and Peter\, all of whom have personal experience of church-related abuse\, to explore the following question: ‘What happens when survivors use the Stations of the Cross as a means to speak both to their fellow survivors and to those who let them down in the communities where they were harmed?’. \nIn ‘Jagged Edges’\, each survivor has approached the Gospel Passion narratives from her or his own perspective and through a different medium – linocut prints\, music\, poetry – to co-create their own Stations of the Cross. \nThe title ‘Jagged Edges’ reflects the unique elements of survivors’ individual experiences\, which overlap but do not fit neatly together; it reflects the dissonant combination of God’s love and the harm done in and by God’s Church in those experiences\, and it reflects the fact that survivors often engage with the Church from the periphery because that is where they feel safe. \nThe new Stations draw meaningful connections between the shared narrative of Jesus’s suffering and the lived experience of individuals harmed in Christian churches. They invite us to look at Jesus’s trauma and to see his story in a particular light: as a story of abuse and as a story of God’s love for and solidarity with those who have been abused. They are also an invitation from survivors to the rest of the Church and beyond to engage in the work of repair\, reconciliation and recovery. \nClick here to learn more about the Diocese of Newcastle’s Chaplaincy to Survivors.  \nImages: ‘Foot of the Cross’\, ‘Peter’s Denial’ and ‘Simon from Cyrene’ by Sarah Troughton. \nJoin us for the following creative workshops inspired by ‘Jagged Edges’: \nCalming the Storm: A Workshop Using Visio-Divina and Mindful Photography to Explore ‘Jagged Edges’ \n \nWriting into Hope: Creative Writing Workshop with Kate Fox\, Inspired by ‘Jagged Edges’ \n \nReflecting on your Relationship with Christ through the Medium of Linoprint

SUMMARY:Why is the Church Hurting? Exploring Moral Injury in the Church (Conference)
DESCRIPTION:The term ‘moral injury’ refers to the enduring negative emotions\, such as guilt\, shame\, anger and disgust\, experienced as a result of the violation or suppression of one’s deeply held moral code. We might acquire a moral injury when someone in a position of trust and authority betrays our shared moral values or when we ourselves act in a way that violates or fails to live up to those values. \nThis one-day conference is informed and supported by a group of survivors\, enabled by the Lead Officer of our Diocesan Chaplaincy to Survivors. It will explore what moral injury is and how it can be caused by the institution of the Church and its practices\, introduce reparative work already underway in Newcastle\, and include some guided conversation about how these injuries can be addressed in and by the Church. The day will include presentations by survivors of church-related abuse and experts in the field. \nFor more information about the event\, please contact Dr Maggi Creese (Chaplaincy to Survivors) at m.creese@newcastle.anglican.org.
