The two churches of the parish, Leeds Parish Church (designated a Minster in September 2012) and Holy Trinity, Boar Lane, each have a rich heritage and history as beacons of Christ’s presence and centres for mission in various forms. Cognisant of this legacy, the new post holder will take responsibility for grasping the many opportunities and responding to the significant and urgent challenges which are described in this Statement of Needs. Central priorities are: to refresh the spiritual life and discipleship of the congregations, to renew partnerships for the sake of the Gospel, and to reconnect with the life of the City and its civic institutions. Over the last nine months, and with the effective support of an Interim Minister, the PCC has be- gun the task of auditing their mission and ministry, developing an agenda for spiritual and numerical growth and reviewing their relationships with the wider community. The seriousness of this endeavour has been demonstrated by the release of a significant sum of money to pay their current Parish Share and to offset a considerable proportion of their historic share. Work is due to start on the Minster Precinct Project which will involve reviving the two Victorian buildings to provide apartments for the Rector (if appropriate) and for the Verger, a Parish Office and commercial office space which will yield a future income stream. The Priest in Charge, who will be an Honorary Canon in the Diocese (with a stall at Ripon Cathedral), will have the full support of the Bishop of Leeds, the Bishop of Richmond and the Archdeacon of Leeds. Once the necessary pastoral and legal framework is in place, the Priest in Charge will be instituted and inducted as Rector of Leeds. Subsequently, and in consultation with the post holder, the Bishop intends to appoint one (and possibly a second) Associate Rector who will work alongside the Rector to realise the full potential of the parish to make Christ known and to contribute to the building of God’s kingdom in the vibrant and diverse city of Leeds (which has Illuminated copy of the Poet Laureate, the biggest retail centre and legal services hub outside London). Leeds aspires to be “Best City” by Carol Ann Duffy’s poem for Leeds to celebrate 2030. We believe that the Minster and parish can contribute to the realisation of that ambition.” ‘Minster Making’ 4 prayer mission service hospitality 2.0 Overview of the City of Leeds and the Region Leeds Firm J W Myer, was the last flat cap manufacturer in Britain before production was moved to China in 2000 Leeds, close to the scenic Yorkshire Dales – could conjure up a picture of a place where people ‘wear flat caps and walk whippets’ or a picture of what it is today - a vibrant, exciting metropolis in the north England with over 750,000 people of diverse cultural and religious heritage, at the heart of which lies the Parish of Leeds City.

  • West Yorkshire Group of the Victorian Society
    West Yorkshire Group of the Victorian Society 2011-12 Programme: Autumn and Winter Sunday, 23rd October: Gorton Monastery and Ford Madox Brown in Manchester Gorton Monastery is hardly a hidden treasure as anyone travelling by train to Manchester can vouch. One of the finest examples of High Victorian architecture, it was designed by E. W. Pugin for the Franciscan order between 1866-72. The church closed in 1989 and but for the commitment of a group of local activists, it was likely that it would have been demolished. Much vandalised the Trust set up in 1996 embarked on a successful £6m restoration which was completed eleven years later. We will have a tour of the building in the morning lasting an hour followed by a lunch of soup, sandwiches, cakes etc. Total cost £15. In the afternoon (2pm), we will have a bespoke tour of the Ford Madox Brown Exhibition at Manchester City Art Gallery which has brought together 140 paintings and drawings. The cost of entrance to the exhibition and the tour will be £13 or £11 for seniors. The tour lasts an hour and after a quick drink in the café, we will have time to look at Brown’s murals in Manchester Town Hall. For those travelling by train from Leeds should catch the 9.40 train which arrives in Manchester at 11.08 and we will take the 205 bus from Piccadilly which stops outside the church. If taking a train from elsewhere, or for those travelling by car, we all meet outside the church at 11.30am.
