See of Dorchester Papers
From the Bishop of Oxford As a Diocese, we are prayerfully seeking the person whom God is calling to be the next Bishop of Dorchester, one of three Area bishops in the Diocese of Oxford. At the heart of our vision we discern a call to become a more Christ-like Church for the sake of God’s world: contemplative, compassionate and courageous. Most of all we are seeking a new Bishop for Dorchester who will seek to model those qualities and inspire the Church of England across the Dorchester Area to live them out in our daily lives. Our new Bishop will therefore be a person of prayer, immersed in the Scriptures and the Christian tradition, able to be at home with and to love the clergy, parishes and benefices in many different church traditions and many different social contexts. We are seeking a person able to watch over themselves in a demanding role and to model healthy and life-giving patterns of ministry. We want our new bishop to be an inspiring leader of worship, preacher and teacher in a range of different contexts and to be a pastor to the ministers of the Area. The Bishop of Dorchester leads a strong and able Area Team in taking forward the common vision of the Diocese of Oxford in the Dorchester Area. Full details of that process can be found in these pages and on our diocesan website. We are therefore seeking a Bishop who can demonstrate commitment and experience to our diocesan priorities. The Bishop of Dorchester holds a significant place in the civic life of the area: we are therefore seeking a bishop who is able to make a confident contribution to wider society beyond the life of the church in civil, ecumenical and interfaith engagement and who is able to live and articulate the Christian gospel in the public square. -

When Texas became a state of the union in 1845, it continued under the care of Bishop Freeman. The Diocese of Texas was organized in 1849 and continued under Bishop Freeman’s care until Bishop Gregg was consecrated. The original diocese, comprising the whole state, was divided in 1874. Since that time, the Diocese of Texas has been made up of the 57 counties of southeast and east Texas, viz: that portion of the State of Texas lying south of the northern line of the counties of Lampasas, Coryell, McLennan, Limestone, Freestone, Anderson, Smith, Gregg, and Marion, and east of the western line of the counties of Matagorda, Colorado, Fayette, Bastrop, Travis, Burnet, and Lampasas.

Women, the State of Play Analytical Reflection on 20 Interviews in the Diocese of Leicester
Women, The State of Play Analytical Reflection on 20 Interviews in the Diocese of Leicester October 2020 Women, The State of Play Analytical Reflection on 20 Interviews in the Diocese of Leicester October 2020 Bishops’ Foreword We are deeply grateful to Karen Rooms, Women’s Ministry Enabler, and to the Diocese of Leicester Women’s Ministry Working Group for the work that has gone into this excellent report. Although the publication has been delayed by the pandemic and lockdown, it is a timely reminder both of the importance of thorough research to inform our decision making, and also of the journey we have begun, but certainly not completed, to ensure the flourishing of the ministry of women in the diocese. We are also grateful to Nick Ladd who has acted as a ‘critical friend’ in reviewing the report and giving an external perspective on the questions we need to ask ourselves in the diocese. The report makes for uncomfortable reading. We have come a long way in recent years, but the report highlights how easy it is to become complacent. With the appointment of Bishop Guli, the first ever female bishop in the history of the Diocese of Leicester, and the appointment of Archdeacon Claire, the first ever female archdeacon, and with the Bishop’s Leadership Team nearing a 50/50 split of men and women, it would be easy to assume that we have reached our goal and everything else will automatically fall into place. However, while it is important to celebrate how far we have come, it is also critical to acknowledge the deep pain still being experienced by many in the diocese. -
70Th Anniversary of Coxwold Cyclists Service
SEVENTY COXWOLD SUNDAYS A HISTORY OF THE ANNUAL CHURCH SERVICE FOR CYCLE TOURISTS 1927/1996 ST. MICHAEL’S CHURCH COXWOLD, NORTH YORKSHIRE. Cyclists arrive at the lychgate ready for the service. Coxwold, 1987. Revd. Jim Thom with The Archbishop of York, Dr. John Habgood. FOREWORD BY THE FORMER ARCHBISHOP OF YORK, DR. JOHN HABGOOD. When people want to give thanks for something they enjoy, it is right that the Church should help them do so. I am therefore delighted to be able to commend this booklet. It tells the story of an initiative almost seventy years ago which blossomed into a tradition and which, for seventy Sundays, has enabled countless people to thank God for the pleasures of cycling, and for the glorious countryside which their cycles have enabled them to enjoy. In a society in which too many people take too much for granted, such acts of thanksgiving are an important corrective. I hope the tradition may long continue. John Ebor, Bishopthorpe Palace, YORK. 1 FOREWORD BY THE VICAR OF COXWOLD, REVD. D.F.JOHNSON, M.A. A view from the vicarage. I became Vicar on April 29th, 1988. They told me "Cyclists' Service in a fortnight". This, of course, was a woefully inadequate briefing and far too late to invite a visiting preacher anyway. Nowadays, when I invite someone to preach, the sort of thing I say is: "This is a festive occasion. The Church will be packed with a crowd of great people of all ages, predominantly dressed in modern cycling dress, which means skin tight gear in lurid colours. -
