    Welcome to Diocesan Synod Thank you for responding to God’s call and being elected to the Diocesan Synod. As a member you will be playing an important role in the life and mission of the Church of England in Suffolk and shaping our strategic priorities for the next three years. This guide is to help you with that responsibility and provide a brief introduction to the Diocese. Further information about the Synod can be found on the website: www.cofesuffolk.org > ‘About Us’ > ‘Diocesan Synod’ or http://www.cofesuffolk.org/synods-committees/diocesan-synod An Overview of the Diocese The Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich was founded in 1914 and serves the county of Suffolk, except for an area in the north east around Lowestoft and one parish in the county of Essex. It serves over 660,000 people living in a geographical area of 1,400 square miles. Of this population 3% (c.19,000 people) identify themselves with the Church of England by being members of the church electoral roll and about 2% (c.14,000) attend a service in their parish in any given week, with 1.75% (c.11,500) attending Sunday services once a month or more. For the next six years ambitious targets have been agreed to strengthen engagement with our communities, increase the number of people we reach and grow new Christian disciples, through the work, mission and ministry that you as a Synod member help govern. Communities throughout the diocese are served by 445 parishes within 129 benefices and 18 deaneries.

  • Our Bishops' Lent Challenge This Year Raises Awareness of Environmental
    Our Bishops’ Lent Challenge this year raises awareness of environmental issues. Few of us can be unaware of the critical and urgent environmental challenges facing the world. Christians are rediscovering that caring for the creation God brought into being, and which God loves, is a vital part of our mission, as well as being an issue of justice. Our programme for Lent 2020 offers a range of opportunities to engage with this challenge: on your own, with others, listening to sermons and addresses, attending presentations, reading a Lent book, sharing in a Home Group, or giving up something for Lent and supporting a charity. The Church of England’s national Lent campaign is available in various formats: social media, an app, daily emails and booklets. Search for #LiveLent: Care for God’s Creation Lent Sunday Sermons and Meet the Preacher Following the 10.00 am Sunday Service you are welcome to discuss the sermon with the preacher over coffee or tea. Ending by 12 noon these conversations will take place in the Edmund Room. Sunday 1 March - Richard Stainer, Diocesan World Development Advisor Sunday 8 March - The Ven Sally Gaze, Archdeacon for Rural Mission Sunday 15 March - Bishop Graeme Knowles, Honorary Assistant Bishop Sunday 29 March - The Ven David Jenkins, Archdeacon of Sudbury Tuesday Evenings in Lent Climate Change and East Anglia A series of presentations in the Edmund Room on climate change related issues for this region, with questions and answers following each presentation.

  • CALCULATING ROUTE… Exploring a Vocation to Ordained Ministry
    CALCULATING ROUTE… Exploring a vocation to ordained ministry Page 1 of 17 Biographical info: This booklet is based on the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham’s booklet “Exploring a vocation to ordained ministry”, and has been used and adapted with permission and thanks. It is designed to help people who are beginning to explore a call to ordained ministry in the Church of England and/or feel strongly called to such ministry, with the particular aim of describing the selection process in the Diocese of Winchester. Page 2 of 17 Introduction Just as the disciples were called by Jesus to make a radical life-changing decision to up sticks and follow him, so every Christian receives a call from God to make his priorities our priorities, to push aside our own agenda and embrace his agenda of love and life in Christ. In recent years, talk of “every member ministry” has emphasised that every Christian has his or her unique part to play in the mission of God. Together we are called to be faithful, but individually, each of us are called in different ways and at different times to do particular things for Christ and to be who we are in him, for others. In this sense, Christian “vocation” is something which all believers share. What this looks like is summed up in the Diocese of Winchester’s “three p’s”: • Passionate personal spirituality • Pioneering faith communities • Prophetic global citizenship Every Christian then, experiences God’s calling, but within the Church, particular individuals are called to exercise roles of licensed leadership as Licensed Lay Ministers (LLM) or as ordained ministers.

  • Joint Statement from Ipswich Christian Leaders- Final
    Joint Statement from Christian leaders in Ipswich in response to the killing of George Floyd Friday 5th June 2020 The killing of George Floyd was a tragic act of violence that has revealed that racial injustices, amongst many other prejudices, are still present throughout society. George Floyd was denied the fundamental right to life, and his killing is an insult to the God-given dignity of every human being. George Floyd’s death has provoked anger across the world and we, as church leaders in Suffolk, join with those who call for justice. Many people in our community face racial discrimination every day. This discrimination, expressed in many forms, all too often goes unchecked. We must unite to call out racism wherever we see it and hold one another accountable for our words and actions. We reaffirm our commitment to eradicating all forms of racism in all parts of society because every human life is precious and honoured by God. We ask you to join us to shine as lights in the darkness, to uncover the forces of prejudice and discrimination that still divide our community. Signatories: 1. Pastor Harold Afflu (Lead Pastor, Ipswich International Church, Elim) 2. The Rt Revd Martin Seeley (Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich, Church of England) 3. The Rt Revd Mike Harrison (Bishop of Dunwich, Church of England) 4. Rev. Peterson Anand (Minister of Nansen Road Baptist Church, Ipswich) 5. Rev Nick Atkins (St Matthew’s Church) 6. Derek Austin (Churchwarden, St Mary’s, Witnesham) 7. Jim Bird (Churchwarden, St Martin’s Church, Tuddenham St Martin) 8.

  • Parish Share and Its Context
    Parish share and its context For Parish/ Benefice Treasurers and PCCs This is a short booklet to answer some of the questions we are most frequently asked, including: 1 What does parish share (formerly known as centenary share) pay for? 2 How is parish share calculated, what is the timing of budgets centrally and how these are agreed with benefices? 3 Who is who at the Bishop’s and Diocesan offices? 4 What is the relationship between a diocese and the national church, especially regarding parish share? This booklet is correct at the time of publication but will inevitably be overtaken by events – please check our website for the latest information: www.cofesuffolk.org/for-parishes/parish-administration/parish-share Issued March 2021 Revised Mary 2021 1 What does parish share pay for? 1.1 What is parish share? Parish share is the mechanism this diocese uses to divide the total diocesan costs of ministry and mission between each benefice. It is the payment made by parishes to the Diocesan Board of Finance (DBF). The DBF is the charity and the administrative hub for the Church of England in Suffolk. The parish share payment finances the following: • Cost of a priest in a benefice, covering the salary (stipend) and housing and pension costs • Archdeacons • Training costs of existing clergy and lay ministers • Development of future clergy and lay ministers for example ordinands, curates, pioneers, evangelists and children’s and families’ workers • Provision of mission-based resources • Church based advice • Safeguarding case work and training, overseen by the national church team • The diocesan office including administration of Diocesan Synod and the charity • The diocesan registrar, who looks after the legal aspects for both parishes and the diocesan office • Contributions to the national church, as required by General Synod (see section 4).
