Day of Installation - an infant church - a "Year of Grace"; his homily said it all; groping for the right "shape" of the new diocese; a charge to "lead, to minister, to exercise compassion"; programme of pastoral visits - Archbishop Warlock's lead; responsibilites to the church i England and everywhere but chiefly to the European scene; despite that he will be available; pastoral oversight to be established [organisational aspects listed]; Canon McBride as Vicar-General, Canon Taylor as Chancellor; invites comments on his "model"; will remain at Poringland - chaplain to be appointed for the Cathedral; drafting a second Ad Clerum - to be crisp and to the point.
Clark, Alan Charles Rev DD (1919-2002)"Catholic Anglicans" - increasing number of requests from anglicans, an answer to the prayers for church unity, anglican ministry in rural parishes ; Anglican Gifts - deeper and richer gifts of sprirtuality; Collaborative MInistry - leadership of the priest is more necessary than eve, await Paul Hypher's thesis at LSU on "collaborative ministry"!; The Church's Preoccupations - real and prayerful place in the church, understandings become deeper with the reducing rarity of female priests in the Church of England; Celibacy [3 sides discussion]- intimitacy not just genital but close companionship - [extensive quotes from The Catholic Times article by Rev Chris Brooks, priest and psychotherapist]; Diocesan News - Franciscans leaving Ipswich, new priests soon, retirements, appointments, purchase of the Convent of Notre Dame, Sisters departing, Latin America service, his own 25th episcopal anniversary
Clark, Alan Charles Rev DD (1919-2002)Unable to attend his Episcopal Ordination but would like to be represented by Canon McBride.

Copied onto Travelling Mission headed paper [by Fr McCormick?].
Letter from Bishop Clark to Stephen Lennane of Reepham. Explains the reasons for the closure of the Travelling Mission. Suggest that others could be of help: Sister Maeve (St Louis Convent, Bury St Edmunds) and Canon McBride who has been asked to see how the Diocese can help those in Reepham.
