  • Serving At: St Cyprian, Hay Mill & St Michael, South Yardley
    Parish & Role Profile for the Parish Priest (Oversight Minister) serving at: St Cyprian, Hay Mill & St Michael, South Yardley Prepared and Agreed by both parishes November 2018 Profile for Parish Priest of St Cyprian’s Hay Mills and St Michael’s South Yardley, page 1 PART A: INTRODUCTION This profile describes the role of parish priest for two neighbouring parishes in the eastern part of Church of England Birmingham in the deanery of Yardley and Bordesley. The role is an opportunity for a priest looking to serve in a city context with a variety of contexts, including significant inter faith work. In addition, the parishes offer a rich range of worshipping life, significant historic and contemporary buildings, good links into the local community and an industrial project at St Cyprian’s which places both historical and contemporary context and partnerships at the heart of mission. The previous incumbent was the first to be priest to both parishes and the relationship continues as part of the wider local group, known as the Swan Group. Following a review, the Bishop has been glad to affirm this role as fitting within his vision for mission and that expressed by the diocesan People and Places programme. The majority context for these parishes is urban on the edge of the central part of Birmingham moving out towards the suburbs and Solihull. St Cyprians is set beside a busy main road, next to retail and industrial sites and has a historic building from 1874 with a modern hall nearby. St Michael’s sits within a largely residential setting a little further out with a modern building of considerable beauty fitting their more high catholic style of worship, with adjacent hall and vicarage across a large site.

Our Vision for the Role We are looking and praying for an enthusiastic, energetic and passionate Pioneer Minister to devise and lead our drive to engage with the local community and particularly build relationships in the areas of the parish which we feel have been neglected over past years, bringing unchurched people to faith in Jesus. This is an important role as part of our Vision 2022. The parish is located within the central area of the Metropolitan Borough of Solihull, West Midlands towards the eastern edge of the Birmingham Diocese. The centre of Birmingham is about 8 miles to the northwest and Coventry is about 15 miles to the east. The area and population of the parish are large for the Diocese of Birmingham. The Parish is roughly 4 miles across and 4 miles long and has a population of about 28,500. The majority of working age people are in employment with a large proportion being professional people working in industry, commerce, institutions or government. There are, however, poorer parts of our parish to which we have discerned a particular call to serve as well and we envisage this area of ministry to be included in the Pioneer Minister’s remit.

  • Faith Leaders' Open Letter to the Prime Minister
    http://interfaithrefugeeinitiative.org/ We are leaders from Britain’s major faiths: Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jain, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, Zoroastrian. All our faiths compel us to affirm the dignity of all human beings and to offer help to anyone in need. As people of faith, we call on your Government urgently to revise its policy towards refugees. The best of this country is represented by the generosity, kindness, solidarity and decency that Britain has at many times shown those fleeing persecution, even at times of far greater deprivation and difficulty than the present day. We rejoice in the mosaic of different faiths and British communities that we now represent. We are proud that in May 2016, in a survey by Amnesty International, 83% of Britons said they would welcome refugees into their neighbourhoods and households. In the face of the unfolding human catastrophe, there are immediate and viable steps that the Government can take to offer sanctuary to more refugees. We call on you to create safe, legal routes of travel, for example by adopting fair and humane family reunion policies for refugees. Under the present immigration rules, a British doctor of Syrian origin could not bring her parents from a refugee camp in Lebanon – even though they were refugees and she could support and house them. A Syrian child who arrived alone in the UK could not bring his parents from a refugee camp in Jordan – even if the child were recognised a refugee and even though his parents were themselves refugees. Families in these situations can currently be reunited only by resorting to desperately unsafe irregular journeys, sometimes ending in avoidable tragedies.
