Our parish’s patron is St Paul

the Apostle who was one of

the early Church’s missionary

leaders.

A dynamic preacher, he

visited communities located

around the Mediterranean

Sea and in Asia Minor

proclaiming the good news

of the death and resurrection

of Jesus Christ.

In his first letter to the

Church at Corinth, Paul tells

how he handed on the

tradition of the Last Supper

to them and it is this sacred

meal that we share which

makes us one with Jesus and

with the Church, both living

and departed, today.

Acknowledgment of Country

Acknowledgement of the

Wangal people of the Eora

Nation

We acknowledge the traditional

custodians of the land upon which

we meet. In his wisdom and love,

our heavenly Father gave this

estate to the Wangal people of the

Eora Nation. Upon this land they

met for generations until the

coming of British settlers. As we

continue to learn to live together on

these ancestral lands, we

acknowledge and pay our respects

to their elders, past, present, and

emerging, and we pray that God

will unite us all in the knowledge of

his Son, in whom all things were

created, in heaven and on earth,

whether visible or invisible — for

all things have been created

through him and for him.

Recognising those who have been

custodians of this land is not a

perfunctory gesture, but an

acknowledgement that many have

gone before us and many will come

after us—we are but passing

through. As King David stated some

3,000 years ago:

We are foreigners and strangers in

your sight, as were all our

ancestors; our days on earth are like

a shadow, and there is no abiding.

(1 Chronicles 29:15)

The first inhabitants of this land

were created by God to tend this

land as stewards of his common

grace. With only general revelation

in the created order as their guide,

they were allotted this land ‘that

they should seek God, in the hope

that they might reach out to him and

find him’, as the apostle Paul

declared to his first century

Athenian audience, ‘for in him we

live and move and have our

being’ (Acts 17:27-28).

God says through the prophet

Jeremiah that: “For surely I know the

plans I have for you, says the LORD,

plans for your welfare and not for

harm, to give you a future with

hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

Because of the Resurrection of

Jesus Christ our Lord, Christians are

a people of hope and because we

are a people of hope we seek to

work and pray for peace, justice,

and love for all, including God’s

4

beautiful creation, and to devote ourselves to seeing God’s kingdom

come on earth as it is in heaven.

We seek to bequeath God’s beautiful creation to future custodians in a

far better state than what we inherited so that creation itself and all

beings may flourish as God intends.

Welcome! We are glad that you have found us!

We affirm that through God’s redeeming love for all, we are one in

Christ. We respect the inherent and valuable contributions each

member makes to the Body of Christ. We celebrate our diversity and

recognize the sacred worth and dignity of all persons of any age,

gender, gender identity, gender expression, race, ethnic origin,

economic reality, family status, sexual orientation, diverse ability, or

social status. We believe that through Christ we are being included and

welcomed by God and one another. As we journey towards inclusion,

we proclaim this welcome to all God’s people, especially to those who

have known the pain of exclusion and discrimination within the church,

affirming that no one is excluded or condemned. We invite all persons

to journey with us as we discover the call of God on our lives through

the ministries of St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Burwood. To that end, St.

Paul’s Anglican Church commits to the welcome and inclusion of all

persons as children of God and declares itself to be a welcoming

community of faith.

Sunday Services

My Dear Friends,

It was a delight to share our worship of God with you last Sunday.

I am most grateful to each of you for your part in helping to make our

Services so very worshipful and safe.

As of the 1st of July the limit on the number of people allowed to attend

places of worship and religious gatherings has been lifted so that the

number allowed to attend a religious gathering will only be restricted

by the size of the building so long as we observe the one person per

four square metre rule (we can fit 130 people in St. Paul’s on this basis, in

fact).

https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/what-you-can-and-cant-do-under-

rules

Singing is obviously a contested issue. The Choir re-commenced singing

in our Services on Sunday the 5th of July. Congregational singing is not

permitted for the time being but the words will be included in the Order

of Service so that Parishioners can hum the words whilst the Choir sings

the hymns.

The same stringent hygiene and safety protocols that we have been

observing will need to be observed each and every week.

The following measures will be observed to ensure the safety of all who

attend these worship Services:

1. People are quite free to decide not to attend Church or any event as I

don’t want anyone to feel that they must do something against their will

(or if they feel that they might compromise another person’s health –

which is why we have closed down all of our groups).

2. All risk management

obligations will be scrupulously

attended to, such as observing

the need for hand washing and

sanitizing, physical distancing,

etc. The Holy Water Stoup has

been emptied.

3. The Greeting of Peace will

involve bowing reverently to

those one is seated close to.

4. Communion will be in two

kinds (the Priest will intinct the

wafers).

5. There will be morning tea in the

Large Hall after the 9.30 a.m.

Service and physical distancing

and hygiene protocols will be

observed.

6. We will fully comply with all

government directives and legal

requirements.

The mid-week Eucharist has

resumed on Wednesdays at 10.30

a.m.

If the situation changes with

reference to the government’s

directives then we will review

matters at that point in time.

With reference to forthcoming

high holy days we will be

observing:

St. James’ Day on Sunday the

26th of July;

There will be a Service of

Evensong at 5.00 p.m. on

Sunday the 2nd of August to

mark the 149th anniversary of

the laying of the foundation

stone of St. Paul’s (on the 29th

of July, 1871);

Mary Mother of Our Lord on

Sunday the 16th of August;

The Octave of St. Bartholo-

mew on Sunday the 30th of

August;

The Octave of St. Matthew on

Sunday the 27th of

September;

The Octave of St. Michael and

All Angels on Sunday the 4th

of October;

St. Luke’s Day on Sunday the

18th of October;

All Saints’ Day on Sunday the

1st of November;

All Souls’ Day on Monday the

2nd of November;

7

Christ the King on Sunday the 22nd of November.

We will make plans for Advent and Christmas closer to the time when

we know what we are dealing with in terms of permitted numbers and

space required.

I hold each of you in my prayers every day and I look forward to seeing

you again soon.

With every blessing.

Peace,

James.

Sunday Service Ringing

I have had several people ask me about ringing for the 9.30am Sunday

service. You might have noticed that it is different, you are correct! We

are only able to ring 4 bells instead of the usual 6 – 8 bells due to the 4

square metre with distancing rule. Our tower is just under 4 metres

square so we are unable to have more than 4 people in the tower. We

have been ringing simple things on 4 bells either 2,4,6,8 or 1,3,5,7.

This enables the 1.5 metre distancing. Each ringer uses the same bell

so there is no cross contamination.

The tenor has been rung for all the services that have been held over

the isolation time. I am glad you are enjoying hearing the bells and I

know that it has made the community aware of our presence.

Cooking as Prayer

by parishioner Kerin Brown.

Paul is her husband.

I enjoy cooking. One of the ways I show love to my friends and family is

to cook for them. It is a kind of prayer. When I decide to cook something

for someone, I am thinking of them and praying for them while I peruse

my cookbooks. I think of them and pray for them while I prepare and

cook the food.

Christmas

Christmas preparations begin in September for me, when I steep the

dried fruits in alcohol, ready for the Christmas pudding and cakes. I

make the pudding for Christmas day to be shared with the extended

family. I make cakes to be given as gifts to family members and friends

for Christmas.

I also make jams or chutneys to give to family members – usually some-

thing different each year. So the washing and sterilising of the jars, the

cutting of the fruit, the measuring of ingredients, the simmering on the

stove, the sample tasting are all part of the prayer for the family mem-

bers who I think of and pray for as I cook.

I think and pray not only for those I am cooking for but I remember that

communion of saints who have gone before marked with the sign of faith

and have left the recipes to me: my grandmother’s custard, my mother’s

brandy sauce, Paul’s mother’s Christmas cake, my aunt’s, my cousins’…

Easter

At Easter time we have the same menu each year: my cousin Trish’s

corned beef recipe and her mother’s Egyptian pudding recipe. This

year I made homemade chocolate ducks (they are almost chickens, rep-

resenting new life) from the duck mould my daughter in law gave me at

Christmastime. These are prayers.

9

Birthday Parties

When the children were small, I, like all the Australian mothers of that

generation, made a birthday cake from the Australian Women’s Weekly

Birthday Cake Book for each child each birthday. It was a labour of

love. I realise now it was also a prayer. My child and I would pour over

the book to choose a cake, then discuss how the cake would be made,

and plan the party. My child and I would make the cake together and

enjoy decorating it.

For many years our family had a combined birthday lunch for the

young cousins. There was a ritual about the compulsory Pavlova – it

was dressed with fruit, usually by my son Angus, then paraded in to the

family, gazed upon and appreciated by them before anyone was al-

lowed to cut it up. It was a prayer.

Gifts

Over the years I have been given many beautiful gifts by family mem-

bers, friends and students, which I treasure. And EVERYTIME I use

them, I think of the giver and pray for them. My sister in law’s cake

plate (on which we always placed the Pavlova); my ex-husband’s

carved wooden wombat, which I like to use as a table decoration; Paul’s

multifarious little white kitchen bowls; my potter son in law’s home-

made ceramic tea cups and bowls; my daughter’s crocheted red doily;

my mother in law’s Noritake tea set which she purchased as a bargain

in 1941 and gave to us as a wedding gift; Aunt Meg’s cup, saucer and

plate; my Pride and Prejudice mug, given to me by a UK visitor who

stayed with us for a week. Just looking at these objects is an act of

prayer. So having these objects around me– some are everyday things,

some are more delicate and valuable – reminds me of the people I

love. Any real prayer is a call to action. So thinking and praying for

these people leads me to do something more – to text, email or ring

them up, to arrange a meeting, to talk to others about a difficulty, to

look something up, to read something.

10

Dinner parties

We love having friends and family over here for meals. It takes quite a

bit of organising to get a group of friends to agree on a date to get to-

gether! Then to plan the theme of the meal, choose recipes – taking in-

to consideration everyone’s particular dietary requirements and prefer-

ences – and a couple of days’ cooking. I always set the table first. For a

dinner party, this means several days before the event. So Paul has to

eat elsewhere and not at the table on days when preparing for a dinner

party. When we came back from England, we had an English dinner

party – steak and ale pies and mushy peas. Heaven! When we came

back from France we had une fete francaise – le cassoulet et le crème

caramel. Tres bien! One of my friends is vegan, so I prepared a vegan

dinner party. Some of the other

guests weren’t that impressed,

but my vegan friend thought it

was wonderful! These are all big

prayers.

Celtic form of continuous

prayer

The Celtic way of prayer was

learnt from the monasteries; it

was from its religious communi-

ties that the people learnt to pray.

As a result they learnt that there

was no separation of praying and

living; praying and working flow

into one another, so that life is to

be punctuated by prayer,

becomes prayer…

Remembering Margaret Baseley

Here is Mary Oliver's take on the joy

If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don’t hesitate. Give in to it.

There are plenty of lives and whole towns destroyed or about to be.

We are not wise, and not very often kind. And much can never be

redeemed.

Still life has some possibility left. Perhaps this is its way of fighting

back, that sometimes something happened better than all the riches

or power in the world.

It could be anything, but very likely you notice it in the instant when

love begins.

Anyway, that’s often the case. Anyway, whatever it is, don’t be afraid of

its plenty.

Joy is not made to be a crumb.

Generation COVID

The coronavirus shutdown has hit young Australians hard throwing their

plans and dreams into chaos

- By Sarah Curnow and Ben Knight / ABC Investigations and ABC Victoria

Young Australians are struggling in record numbers to cope with the

anxiety of watching their world turned upside down.

Experts compare the disruption and stress of the coronavirus pandemic

to living through a war, or the Great Depression, but this is a crisis on a

scale most of their parents, and even their grandparents, never had to

face.

It has hit young people the hardest because it comes at such a critical

moment; a time when they’re laying the foundations and making

decisions that will affect the rest of their lives.

20

the ABC launched this project, asking young people from around

Australia to share their innermost thoughts, fears — and hopes.

2020 was supposed to be Erin Brown’s big year — nearing the end of

her university degree, and with a job in Spain to look forward to in

October.

It now seems almost certain she won’t be going.

Without a job, she has had to leave Sydney and move back to her

parents’ home on the NSW Central Coast.

Erin Brown is just 20 years old and going through hell — a hell

hundreds of thousands of other young Australians will recognise.

For the past three months, Swinburne University has been tracking an

alarming spike in serious mental health problems among 18 to 25-year

-olds.

Back in March, neuropsychologist Susan Rossell was watching the

evening news, and was deeply worried at the stress levels she was

seeing in the population.

“I thought — this is really going to impact not just the clinical work that

we do, but the research we do,” Professor Rossell says.

“Not only for the next few weeks, but for months and potentially years

afterwards.”

Professor Rossell and her research team dropped the projects they

were working on and began surveying people across the country,

asking about their mental health.

Researchers sent out surveys through their email contact lists, and on

social media, asking recipients to pass it on to as many people as they

could.

More than 6,000 people responded. When the first results came back

in April, researchers immediately saw how bad things were.

21

Depression scores for 18 to 25-year-olds were almost four times higher

than usual for the age group. It was nearly as bad for anxiety and stress.

Scores were calculated based on answers to the survey questions, with

higher scores meaning people were reporting higher levels of stress,

depression or anxiety.

“The other group that were particularly affected was people with

pre-existing mental health problems,” Professor Rossell says.

“So, if you’ve got the double whammy of being young, and having a

pre-existing mental health problem, we were really looking at some

clearly quite-extreme numbers.”

As Swinburne was fielding those first results, the ABC started talking to

young people, asking them to record their lives and experiences under

COVID-19.

One of them was 22-year-old university student Alain Nguyen.

22

“It’s been chaos,” he said.

“I’m being bombarded by the

news coverage. It’s crazy. It’s like,

‘OK, we get it.’ There’s not much

we can do about it. There’s so

much uncertainty, and lots of

noise.”

He deferred his final course unit

and started applying for

placements that might lead to a

graduate job. It was bruising.

“I got pushed back by around 95

per cent of the companies I

applied for, which was around 20

to 30 companies.

“I spent a while just self-loathing,

curled up in bed, watching videos

all day, and not talking to anyone.

“Part of me was like, ‘What’s the

point of applying this year, or next

year?’ I just felt like my confidence

dipped, the more knockbacks I

got.”

Alain is one of those copping the

“double whammy” that was

worrying Professor Rossell.

He is young, and has pre-existing

depression, anxiety and

autism-spectrum issues.

He tried hard to keep this crisis in

perspective.

“I don’t want to make it a ‘struggle

Olympics’. I mean, my parents are

refugees from the Vietnam War,

and their experience has made

them able to manage going

through COVID much better than I

have,” he says.

Alain has recently started applying

for jobs again, but the competition

is fierce. Two weeks ago, he was

one of 4,100 applicants at one firm.

“I guess my priorities have really

changed — less about enjoying

things, or rewarding myself, to

maintaining myself and hunkering

down. Because I don’t think we’ll

see the full effects on mental health

and employment until next year,”

he says.

By May, as restrictions eased, it

looked like the figures for

depression, anxiety and stress

Swinburne was getting in its

surveys would come down.

And they did — marginally.

But then came the June figures. In

states like Queensland, where

restrictions were lifting, people

were getting noticeably better.

But in places like Victoria, the

numbers were getting worse.

23

“We’re very used to seeing a figure of 20 per cent of the people in the

general public having some kind of mental health disorder,” Professor

Rossell says.

“But when we looked at our data, it was looking more like 50 per cent to

55 per cent. That’s an extra 35 per cent of the population.

“These are people that would normally be in hospital. These levels are

really quite extreme.”

Not surprisingly, much of the anxiety being felt by young people we

spoke to was related to uncertainty over the future.

But there was one figure in the results that brought some of the

Swinburne researchers to tears.

In the May and June surveys, they added this question: “In the past four

weeks, did you think you would be better off dead, or wish you were

dead?”

More than 40 per cent of adults under 25 surveyed in June said they had

thought about suicide recently. Source: Swinburne University, 2020

24

The first responses were worrying

enough. Twenty-four per cent of

18 to 24-year-olds answered “Yes”.

But the following month, that

jumped to 41 per cent.

“They’re really, really desperate

figures,” Professor Rossell says.

“It tells us that we’ve got a group

of young individuals that are really

not doing so well at home. They’ve

often lost their jobs, they’ve often

lost going to university, they’ve

lost all of their social contact.”

The youth mental health service

Headspace hasn’t seen increases

in suicidal ideation among its

clients since March, but CEO Jason

Trethowan says that doesn’t mean

it isn’t happening in the broader

community.

“Thinking about it doesn’t mean

you are going to go on to complete

suicide. But [what] we want to know

is — who is in that category?”

Headspace has, however, seen a

massive jump in demand for online

and telephone counselling from

young people of between 30 and

40 per cent during the pandemic.

It also analysed the words that

came up in those conversations.

Mentions of ‘coping skills’ rose 86

per cent, while mentions of being

‘overwhelmed’ were up 63 per

cent.

“This is a perfect storm for youth

mental health,” Jason Trethowan

says.

“We do expect an increase in

service demand. The demand was

already there prior to COVID.

“We know that that system is not fit

for purpose for today. What we

need is improved coordination of

services in the community. We want

young people who have an

experience to tell their story

once.”

Even as much of Australia is

opening back up, and social

isolation eases, fears for the future

and going into a recession haven’t

gone away.

“We know that the mental health

impact has a long tail, because the

impacts on people’s lives, on their

employment, on their career

trajectories, often takes time to

unfold,” says Ruth Vine, the newly

appointed Deputy Chief Medical

Officer for Mental Health.

25

“Young people don’t have the benefit of having experienced ups and

downs, or seeing things unfold in the world in the way that those of us

with more years behind us have. And so there may be a greater

tendency to react and even to catastrophise. Even to feel, ‘This is it, my

life’s never going to get back together.’”

But Professor Vine says there is a potential upside to living through a

crisis like this.

“It should build resilience, because it should have made us think about

how we do things differently,” she says.

“And to know that you have other mechanisms to cope — and that they

work — is a very important part of building that resilience.”

She has advice for young people who are struggling:

“Carry on your life as normally as you can, and use all those supports

that you normally use. But if they’re not working, if you’re finding that

you’re not sleeping or you’re constantly going back to being very fear-

ful or have very dark thoughts, then tell people. Seek out help and be

confident that there is help out there. And if you don’t like the first per-

son you talk to, go find another one.”

And among their fears and anxieties, there are signs that resilience is

building in the young people who shared their stories with the ABC.

Every one of them expressed hope that the world will be better place

on the other side of the crisis.

“I really hope that it makes us as a society way more compassionate,”

Erin Brown says.

“I think, coming out of this, I would just love to see more support being

offered to people outside our immediate networks… and just for kind-

ness to be the motivating force in all that we do.”

Antidepressant use increase

in Queensland linked to

COVID-19 pandemic stress,

doctors says

- By Amy Sheehan

There has been a sharp increase in

antidepressant use in Queensland

with doctors reporting more people

needing extra support to get

through the COVID-19 pandemic.

Data from the Pharmaceutical Bene-

fits Scheme has shown the use of the

most commonly prescribed antide-

pressant drugs increased by 10 per

cent between January and May this

year.

The selective serotonin reuptake in-

hibitors, known as SSRI drugs, were

dispensed at Queensland pharma-

cies more than 378,000 times over

the five months — an extra 34,000

boxes of tablets compared to the

same period last year.

Michael Clements from the Australi-

an Medical Association of Queens-

land said that data was reflective of

what GPs saw in the community.

"That's quite a lot of extra new

pills," Dr Clements said.

"A lot of our patients are under

increased stress and increased

mental health burden."

Dr Clements said SSRI drugs

boosted serotonin levels and were a

safe and effective treatment for

people suffering moderate to

severe depressive illness.

"Having the extra serotonin in your

bloodstream will enable you to put

in place some of the other behav-

iours and lifestyle adjustments that

you're going to need to get yourself

out of that pit," he said.

Dr Clements believed the spike in

use could be directly attributed to

the impacts of the pandemic.

"The financial stress, the home-

schooling, worrying about whether

you had a job or, as a business own-

er, whether you could pay your

staff," he said.

"There's an awful lot of reason to be

stressed at the moment," he said.

"Some of my patients who've come

to see me had not experienced a

depressive illness for some years

and had been off tablets for some

years, but they recognised with the

increased stress of COVID they

could see some of those symptoms

coming back."

Sertraline, a common SSRI drug

known under the brand name

27

Zoloft, had the most significant

spike in usage.

An additional 28,000 prescriptions

of 50 milligrams and 100mg tablets

were dispensed between January

and May — a 16.95 per cent in-

crease on the same period in 2019.

Pandemic impacts like a natural

disaster

Dr Clements, a Townsville-based

GP, likened the COVID-19 pandem-

ic to that of the Townsville flood dis-

aster last year.

"People are in a bit of shock and a

bit of dismay and adrenaline is run-

ning," he said.

"Those extra stresses can actually

reactivate an underlying depression

that maybe you had control of, or

for some people, it may trigger off

their first episode."

Sunshine Coast psychiatrist

Dhushan Illesinghe believes there

will be a wave of new mental health

cases diagnosed in the next three

to six months.

"We can expect from our experi-

ence that there is likely to be an

exacerbation of symptoms as well

as people who present with

symptoms for the first time after

this," Dr Illesinghe said.

"Judging from other natural disas-

ters, the psychological presenta-

tions can take three to six months."

Dr Illesinghe is director of the

Cooinda Mental Health Service at

Buderim Private Hospital.

"When people experience anxiety

and depression they often think,

'Maybe I'm not strong enough, I

need to pull my socks up, I need to

relax more, or get more sleep or

less work'," Dr Illesinghe said.

"They need to acknowledge it is an

illness that needs treatment and

good food and sunlight are not go-

ing to be enough."

Be aware of early warning signs

Health experts say early warning

signs of depression and anxiety

include lack of sleep, poor diet and

exercise, drinking more alcohol and

withdrawing from social activities.

"For that to move into a new clinical

depression does take time,"

Dr Clements said.

"We certainly believe that it can

take six to 12 months before we ac-

tually start to see a formal diagnosis

take place."

28

Dr Illesinghe said anxiety was the most important and recognisable

symptom.

"Anxiety is number one, meaning a feeling of impending doom or

feeling that something terrible is going to happen without knowing what

it is," he said.

Support services in high demand

More than half a million people have visited the online Coronavirus

Mental Wellbeing Support Service(external link) since it was launched

by advocacy group Beyond Blue in April.

Calls to its support services also increased by 60 per cent in April and

31 per cent in May, while more than 800,000 people have engaged in its

online mental health forums.

Chief executive Georgie Harman said people were anxious about

money, job security and the economy.

"People are telling us they're feeling overwhelmed, worried, lonely, con-

cerned about their physical health and the health of friends and loved

ones," Ms Harman said.

"There's no one-size-fits-all answer.

"Different people will need different types of support for their mental

health and wellbeing."

Ms Harman said many people would benefit from reaching out to a

trained mental health professional who could provide the latest infor-

mation about the pandemic and referral options.

Doctors say with the right treatment people can recover and lead a

more active and productive life.

"Very importantly, [effective treatment means] engaging in some kind of

talk-based therapy, as well as healthy lifestyle factors such as making

exercise a part of every day, making healthy diet a part of every day," Dr

Clements said.

General Synod, Lambeth in

doubt even in 2021, says

new Primate

TMA sits down with new

Anglican Primate Geoff

Smith, Archbishop of

Adelaide

- By Mark Brolly

Australia's new Anglican Primate,

Archbishop Geoff Smith of Ade-

laide, questions whether the de-

ferred meetings of General Synod

and the Lambeth Conference of

the world's Anglican bishops will

go ahead in 2021 but expects both

to be shaped by the health and

economic impacts of COVID-19 if

they do.

But he said the adaptations forced

by coronavirus offered huge

opportunities for Anglicans to ex-

plore how an online Church pres-

ence might work.

Archbishop Smith also said some of

the Church's decision-making gov-

ernance structures "do not assist us

in discussing complex matters",

making the nurturing of relation-

ships very important to avoid frag-

mentation.

He identified two initiatives of his

predecessor as Primate,

Melbourne's Archbishop Philip

Freier, that he wants to follow, as

well as pursuing existing priorities

of his own.

And, in an email interview with

TMA, he revealed that he and his

wife Lynn are beekeepers!

The Brisbane-born Archbishop

succeeded Dr Freier, whose resig-

nation after almost six years as Pri-

mate took effect on 31 March, after

an electronic ballot by the Primatial

Board of Electors in early April.

"Coronavirus has meant that the

start of my time in the role has

been very different to what I had

imagined and just how things will

develop is not at all certain yet,"

Archbishop Smith said.

"Having said that, I think there is a

great deal of goodwill among the

bishops of the Anglican Church of

Australia and a real intent to work

together and work through the

challenges we face. I look forward

to being a part of that.

"Archbishop Freier initiated a cou-

ple of things which I hope will con-

tinue. One of those was a training

program for new bishops, and the

other was an intentional develop-

ing of relationships between

30

bishops in the Pacific. I am already

involved in the Council of the

Church of East Asia and I hope to

continue to build relationships with

the church in that part of the world.

Given our autonomous structure, re-

lationships are vital in helping to

keep the Anglican wheels moving

forward together so I hope to con-

tinue to build on those important

relationships."

Asked how General Synod and the

Lambeth Conference might be dif-

ferent in 2021 than they would have

been this year if not postponed due

to coronavirus, Archbishop Smith

replied: "I think there is a question

mark over whether those two gath-

erings will take place in 2021.

There is still a great deal of uncer-

tainty about next year. If Lambeth

happens as an international gather-

ing, many bishops will be attending

whose dioceses have been severely

impacted by COVID-19, with many

deaths, a great deal of illness and

significant economic hardship. I

think if Lambeth happens, it will be

a sombre event with much focus on

those parts of the world that contin-

ue to suffer.

"If General Synod happens next

year as a face-to-face meeting and

if Australia continues to be free or

largely free of COVID-19, I expect

the meeting will be marked by

thanksgiving, but again mindful of

the people who are suffering espe-

cially in an economic sense. That

might prompt the Synod to reflect

on our priorities as a church reflect-

ing the love of God to the world."

Archbishop Smith, asked how well

placed the Anglican Church of Aus-

tralia and the worldwide Anglican

Communion were to respond effec-

tively to secularism in the Western

world, to regain public trust and

confidence after the child sexual

abuse revelations in recent dec-

ades and to deal with contentious

issues such as same-sex marriage,

said there were a variety of circum-

stances ranging from rapid growth

to rapid decline across the Com-

munion.

"In terms of the Western world,

there is no doubt that the influence

of secularism and atheism is strong

and has been building for several

hundred years -- this is not new," he

said.

"The Anglican Church of Australia

faces a long road to regain public

trust due to the influence of secu-

larism and atheism, especially fun-

damentalist atheism, and given the

31

revelations of child sexual abuse, which for many people just reinforced

what they already thought about the Church. The way to regain public

trust will be by action, not words. We need to demonstrate the power of

God’s love, not just talk about it, and we need to demonstrate that we are

an organisation which is worthy of public trust.

"The Anglican Church of Australia has been dealing with contentious is-

sues for most of its existence -- this also is not new. Some of our decision

-making governance structures do not assist us in discussing complex

matters and that makes relationships very important. Given the chal-

lenging times we face missionally, we need to work together not allow

ourselves to fragment. My view is that there is goodwill and a desire to

work together, but doing that will require energy, commitment and hard

work."

He said COVID-19 had provided the Church with huge opportunities.

"Clergy and lay leaders have shown significant capacity for rapid

change and creativity. People who are not usually connected with the

worshipping life of the Church have shown they can be interested if the

medium actually works for them. We will need to work through what a

continuing online church presence looks like for the Church because

there does seem an opportunity for that."

Archbishop Smith, who has led Adelaide's Anglicans since 2017, was

born and raised in Brisbane and has two younger sisters.

"We had a very happy and stable household with wider family nearby,"

he said. "There were quite a few families of similar age in our area so the

kids from up and down the road played together. As we grew older, we

played cricket in summer and football (Australian Rules and Rugby

League) in winter."

He was baptised in the Anglican Church when he was two months old

and has been participating ever since.

"Both my parents were committed Anglican Christians, so church was a

major part of our life.

32

"Knowing God through Jesus Christ

is a huge privilege, and for me it is

dynamic with a very present expe-

rience of God leading and guiding,

prompting and teaching me. Shar-

ing in God’s vision of the Kingdom

of God gives me purpose and great

hope for the world.

"Anglicanism has a system of bal-

ances which I appreciate. There is a

balance between word and sacra-

ment, between centralised authority

and autonomy, between episcopal

leadership and synodical control,

between word and deed.

"My uncle, who is a priest, asked me

when I was about 15 whether I had

thought of being a priest," Arch-

bishop Smith said. "I said, ‘No, I

want to be a barrister’, but actually

the idea of ordination stayed with

me from that time. I attended a se-

lection conference in Brisbane

when I was 19 and was ordained for

Grafton diocese when I was 23. I

have never regretted being or-

dained so young and have had an

absolutely blessed time as an or-

dained person."

Since ordination, he has served in

ministries ranging from Rector of

Taraka in Papua New Guinea, first

Vicar of the Parochial District of

Sawtell-Bonville in Grafton diocese,

National Director of the Anglican

Board of Mission – Australia and

Bishop of the Southern Region, and

later Registrar, of the Brisbane dio-

cese.

"Each of the contexts I have minis-

tered have contributed to my for-

mation. In my second curacy at Lis-

more, I experienced really extraor-

dinary leadership and team for-

mation from Greg Ezzy, the Rector

of the parish. In PNG, we learned

faith and saw clearly the impact of

culture on Christian expression.

Sawtell and Ballina were wonderful

parish communities of people who

really wanted to reach out and grow

and were prepared to have a go. In

Brisbane, I learned to be a bishop

and the General Manager/Registrar

role enabled me to work with a

group of fantastic lay executives

who taught me a great deal."

Archbishop Smith and his wife Lynn

have two adult children and a

daughter-in-law -- all living in

Brisbane.

In Adelaide, they have two beehives

in their backyard and also relax by

cycling ("on flat terrain", the

Archbishop adds), bushwalking and

exploring South Australia.

Don’t erase Jesus’s Jewish identity - By Marcus Walker

So when did your family convert to Christianity?’ asked an American

General early on in the occupation of Iraq. ‘About two thousand years

ago,’ replied the Iraqi.

The Middle Eastern culture and context of Christ is something that the

Western Church seems happy to forget. That Jesus was very specifically a

Jew is something we have found even more difficult – as Christianity’s un-

comfortable bouts of anti-Semitism have shown.

It is because of this that the new Archbishop of York’s claim this week in

an interview with the Sunday Times that ‘Jesus was a black man’ is so un-

fortunate.

The plight of Middle Eastern Christians should be a matter of outrage for

the Western Church. Their population has fallen from 20 per cent of the

Middle East to 5 per cent in the past century. 3 million were killed in one

genocide running alongside the collapse of the Ottoman Empire; another

saw Christian populations expelled, exterminated, or forcibly converted

by Isis.

We should be outraged. But we’re not. It has hardly featured in our na-

tional press. There have been no protests. It may be because so much of

this has happened on the back of Western action (especially the Iraq

War). Perhaps it is because Westerners are inclined to think of Christians

as ‘oppressors’ and not ‘oppressed’ in some global hierarchy of privilege.

Whatever the reason, with a few notable exceptions (among whom we

must rank the Archbishop of Canterbury, who has been very strong on

this) Western Christians have been happy to ignore the horrors inflicted

on Christians of the Middle East, and consciously or unconsciously have

furthered the view that Christianity is a Western religion.

Into this complexity comes a heightened awareness of racial disparities,

especially between black and white populations of the United States and

Europe. One of the battlegrounds has been the question of why Jesus is

so often portrayed as ‘white’, sometimes with blond hair and blue eyes.

34

This is partly, of course, because of the artistic and theological trend that

sees Jesus (and those around him) painted and carved in the style of the

culture in which they are being honoured – see, for example, the won-

derful 18th century Mughal paintings of an Indian Christ and his mother,

the Italian art of the Renaissance, or the sculptures and paintings coming

out of the various churches of Africa at the moment. It tells the local view-

er that this story is for you and about you. The tragedy is that it can also

do the opposite: many black people have said they felt that the stories

were neither for them, nor about them.

It was in this spirit, I think, that the Archbishop of York said, ‘Jesus was a

black man, and he was born into a persecuted group in an occupied

country.’ The trouble is, it isn’t true. Jesus wasn’t a black man. He wasn’t a

northern European either. He was a Jew. A Jew from the Middle East. And

that is a scandal. The ‘Scandal of Particularity’, as it is called.

It is a scandal that Jesus was born at a particular time in a particular

place among a particular people as a particular sex. It is far easier to be-

lieve in a God who never gets tied down by human specifics. If God is

nothing, God can be anything: God can be white, God can be black, God

can be British (or German or French) and God can cheer us on against

our enemies. God can be trans, or straight, or gay.

But when you rip divinity out of its comfortable atemporality and give it –

give him – a name (something God stoically refused to tell Moses on

Mount Sinai), a family, an education, a station in life, a group of friends,

and, of course, a political world with which he interacted… suddenly he

cannot be all things to all men.

At its best, art that puts Christ in a different context takes us out of our re-

ality and put us into his scene; we become actors in his drama. At its

worst, we end up ripping Christ from his reality and making him an actor

in our drama – national, racial, or personal. The gap between good art

and bad art is a chasm that is almost as deep as that between good the-

ology and bad theology – and takes us to the same place.

The best art, like the best theology, takes the particular and makes it uni-

35

versal. We should be able to see ourselves (whoever we are) as Thomas

putting his finger into the side of Christ, or as Matthew being called from

his counting house, or as one of the soldiers pushing the crown of thorns

onto Christ’s bleeding head.

The worst, however, cancels historical fact and replaces it with whichever

passing particularity suits your narrative at the time. It leaves us without

an historical Christ in whom we can (or can’t) believe on his own terms,

and gives us an ever-flexible puppet of our own creation – in which it is-

n’t worth believing whatever the terms. Having removed the Jewish iden-

tity of their Saviour, it’s unsurprising that so many Christians are indiffer-

ent to that of their Jewish neighbours. Having abandoned the Middle

East, you can see why the plight of their Christians can no longer interest

us.

Now is not the time to erase the Middle Eastern Jew from the Christian

story.

More than a year since the Notre-Dame cathedral fire,

authorities have decided how it will be rebuilt

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-07-10/notre-dame-cathedral-spire-restored-original

-state-before-fire/12442168

More than a year since Notre-Dame cathedral lost its gothic spire, roof

and many precious artefacts to an inferno, authorities have finally agreed

on how the centuries-old structure will be rebuilt — just as it was before.

The famous Paris landmark and major tourist attraction was gutted by fire

on April 15, 2019, in a disaster that stunned the nation and the world.

President Emmanuel Macron promised after the fire to rebuild Notre-

Dame within five years.

He also suggested that a contemporary design could be used for the

spire and that it could be rebuilt "even more beautifully than before".

Soon after the fire, French Prime Minister Édouard Philippe launched an

international architectural design competition for the new spire and roof.

36

It presented architects with a once-in-a-generation opportunity.

But ideas for a new, modern design for the cathedral were met with out-

rage from those with more traditional views.

Christophe Girard, deputy mayor for culture in Paris, said the Gothic

masterpiece must be painstakingly restored to its former glory.

"Notre Dame is like a very strong lady — beautiful lady — belonging to

the world. She's asking us, the world and our country, 'what can you do for

me and how fast can you repair me?'"

France's chief architect of historical sites, Philippe Villeneuve, insisted

the spire be rebuilt exactly as before.

That drew a strong rebuke from the French army general, who told Mr

Villeneuve in a National Assembly committee meeting to "shut his

mouth".

"As for the chief architect, I have already explained that he should shut

his mouth," General Jean-Louis Georgelin said to gasps of astonishment.

But after months of deliberating, the commission in charge of the deci-

sion announced on Thursday (local time) that the centuries-old cathedral

will be rebuilt just as it was before.

The national heritage and architectural commission have approved plans

to restore the cathedral to its last "complete, coherent and known" state,

including the spire, the restoration body said in a statement.

Church officials hope Notre-Dame will be open for mass by 2024, when

Paris is due to host the Olympic Games.

Restoration work on the cathedral continues, although it was paused

briefly this year during the coronavirus shutdown.
