  • Appointment of Clergy Office Holders a Guide To
    Appointment of clergy office holders A guide to good practice Produced in support of the Ecclesiastical Offices (Terms of Service) Measure 2009 Prepared by TSIP in 2013 for final approval by the Standing Committee of the House of Bishops and updated by RACSC in February 2015 Foreword 1. The process by which people are chosen for particular roles is one of the most important and sensitive in all institutions. The Church of England has, for many years, invested significantly in well resourced and nationally agreed arrangements for discerning the vocation of those called to ordained ministry. But, for a variety of reasons the Church of England has traditionally found it much more difficult to reflect nationally on the processes which come later, once someone is due to be considered for a parochial clergy appointment. 2. There have been a number of reasons for this reticence. The most obvious is the sheer fragmentation of responsibility for making appointments in a church with some 13,000 parishes. The Church of England is not a legal entity and is made up of many different bodies; in many ways it has more the qualities of an organism than an organization. 3. In addition, the patronage system, though much reformed over the years, has continued to make the practical operation of parochial appointments within the Church of England more complex than in many other institutions. In the appointment of incumbents, it remains the patron who has the right of initiative, though an appointment cannot proceed without the consent both of the bishop and of the two parochial representatives.

  • What Happens When the Vicar Leaves • Managing the Vacancy
    What Happens when the Vicar leaves Managing the vacancy Appointing a new priest. A Guide for Churchwardens and PCC members 1 Introduction You will be reading this most likely because your Vicar (or Rector or Priest in Charge) has either just left or has announced his or her intention to leave. This can be a daunting time for a church but it is also an opportunity: An opportunity to celebrate the strengths of the ministry of your church on which you will want to build on for the future. An opportunity to recognise where you are ready as a church to change and grow. It can therefore be also exciting as you look to future and to the new things God is going to do in you and in your church as you welcome a new Vicar to work in partnership with you in the ministry and mission of the parish. This is a time when you will be well supported by your Bishops, your Archdeacon and your Area Dean. Each have different roles to play but each will want you to know that they are there to work with you so that the vacancy is a positive experience and that together we make a really good appointment for your next parish priest. This leaflet sets out all you should need to know about the managing the vacancy and the appointment process but there are bound to be times when you will have other questions to raise. Your key points of contact are The Archdeacons The Venerable Jackie Searle The Venerable Phil Andrew Archdeacon of Gloucester Archdeacon of Cheltenham 2 College Green, Gloucester, GL1 2LR 2 College Green, Gloucester, GL1 2LR 01452 835555 01452 835594 [email protected] [email protected] Your Area Dean who is: Please do not hesitate to contact us – we are there to help.

  • His Grace, Bishop Joseph’S Address at the Funeral of the Very Reverend Archpriest Richard Ballew December 16, 2008 Elk Gr
    His Grace, Bishop JOSEPH’s Address at the Funeral of the Very Reverend Archpriest Richard Ballew December 16, 2008 Elk Grove, California The beloved Archpriests, Priests and Deacons in Christ; the Family of Father Richard: His wife, Kh. Sylvia; His sister, Betty; His children, Russel, Shelli, Richard, and Randall; His grandchildren; and all of his beloved parishioners and friends who have gathered here to honor Father Richard: In my years as a Bishop, I have presided over many funerals. I have prayed over many a dear friend and many a powerful person. Yet, there are few times where I have done so over someone I would consider to be a historical figure. Today, we pray for the repose of a man I consider being a historical person, a man who has changed the world, a man who has made a difference in his time and place. Father Richard has always been a big man, and not just in terms of is considerable physical presence and Texas mannerisms, but in the work he carried out in behalf of his friends, family and the Church. He was a great man in the sense that he devoted himself whole-heartedly to serving others, a way of life that is becoming more and more rare in our secular world. His true work began when he and his fellows in Campus Crusade for Christ began to realize that there was a gap between their teachings and the reality of the Gospel. Truly, they had to live out our Lord Jesus Christ’s command for mankind to repent in the fullness of humility.

  • The Rt Revd Rachel Treweek
    The Rt Revd Rachel Treweek Our ref: DB/11/19 Bishop of Gloucester The Bishops’ Office November 2019 2 College Green, Gloucester, GL1 2LR [email protected] Tel: 01452 835511 Dear Candidate Priest in Charge of the ‘Northleach Benefice’ Thank you for making enquiries about this vacancy – I hope you find the enclosed documents helpful in considering your application. There is much to celebrate and much potential in these rural parishes, set in a popular and attractive part of the Cotswolds. The benefice is generally in good heart with some solid foundations to build upon, not least in the two church schools. The congregations are committed and supportive, whilst also being very aware of the significant challenges of rural ministry in a large multi-parish benefice. The parishes are looking for someone who will enjoy and immerse themselves in village life, supporting the worshipping communities in their mission throughout the week. As well as being deeply rooted in their own village settings, there is a growing recognition within the parishes of the need to act collaboratively across the benefice and I am encouraged by the emphasis in the profile on growing in cohesion and unity. The next Priest in Charge will have my support – and that of the Diocesan support team – in rising to this challenge as we seek to live out our LIFE vision which includes the commitment to ‘pilot liberating models of leadership and ministry, especially in multi- parish benefices’. The successful candidate will be supported by an enthusiastic ministry team which includes an active retired bishop, the Rt Revd David Jennings who lives in Northleach and has, at my invitation, been supporting the benefice through the vacancy.

  • Cathedral Building in America: a Missionary Cathedral in Utah by the Very Reverend Gary Kriss, D.D
    Cathedral Building in America: A Missionary Cathedral in Utah By the Very Reverend Gary Kriss, D.D. I “THERE IS NO fixed type yet of the American cathedral.”1 Bishop Daniel S. Tuttle’s comment in 1906 remains true today as an assessment of the progress of the cathedral movement in the Episcopal Church. In organization, mission, and architecture, American cathedrals represent a kaleidoscope of styles quite unlike the settled cathedral system which is found in England. It may fairly be said that, in the development of the Episcopal Church, cathedrals were an afterthought. The first cathedrals appear on the scene in the early 1860s, more than two hundred fifty years after Anglicans established their first parish on American soil. So far removed from the experience of English cathedral life, it is remarkable that cathedrals emerged at all—unless it might be suggested that by the very nature of episcopacy, cathedrals are integral to it. “I think no Episcopate complete that has not a center, the cathedral, as well as a circumference, the Diocese.”2 The year was 1869. William Croswell Doane, first Bishop of Albany, New York, was setting forth his vision for his Diocese. Just two years earlier, Bishop Tuttle had set out from his parish in Morris, New York, (which, coincidentally, was in that section of New York State which became part of the new Diocese of Albany in 1868) to begin his work as Missionary Bishop of Montana with Idaho and Utah. In 1869, Bishop Tuttle established his permanent home in Salt Lake City, and within two years, quite without any conscious purpose or design on his part, he had a cathedral.

  • Response by the Very Reverend Peter Elliott
    The Very Reverend Peter Elliott Dean of the Diocese of New Westminster Rector of Christ Church Cathedral, Vancouver, BC Member of the Anglican Consultative Council It is heartening to read the statement from the 5th Consultation of Anglican Bishops in Dialogue from Coventry England, May 2014 A Testimony of Our Journey Towards Reconciliation. These meetings between bishops from Africa and North America, continuing conversations begun at the 2008 Lambeth Conference, are encouraging signs of hope. I found the location of this fifth meeting in Coventry Cathedral--with its rich heritage and leadership in the ministry of reconciliation--and the participation of the current Archbishop of Canterbury, inspiring. The creative melding together of themes from St. Paul’s two letters to the Corinthians (1 Corinthians 13: 12; 2 Corinthians 5: 18-20) was particularly fascinating linking together an existential agnosticism (‘…now we see in a mirror dimly…now I know only in part…’) with a clarion call to reconciliation (‘..Christ…has given us the ministry of reconciliation…’). Holding together the sense of not knowing with the eschatological call to reconciliation articulates an important acknowledgement of the deep need to listen, understand and work tirelessly toward the reconciliation to which we are called. There are numerous phrases in the bishops’ testimony that offer hope to a communion deeply affected by differences in theological and ethical views: it was encouraging to read, “It is in this middle ground between what was and what will be that all Christian people stand, but it is the particular vocation of Anglicans to stand in the middle, to be the incarnate people of reconciliation.” The great via media, the comprehensiveness characteristic of classical Anglicanism has, sadly, been overshadowed, in recent years by an Internet-fueled conflict between competing theologies.
