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. -

This 2008 Letter
The Most Reverend and Right Hon the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury & The Most Reverend and Right Hon the Lord Archbishop of York July, 2008 Most Reverend Fathers in God, We write as bishops, priests and deacons of the Provinces of Canterbury and York, who have sought, by God’s grace, in our various ministries, to celebrate the Sacraments and preach the Word faithfully; to form, nurture and catechise new Christians; to pastor the people of God entrusted to our care; and, through the work of our dioceses, parishes and institutions, to build up the Kingdom and to further God’s mission to the world in this land. Our theological convictions, grounded in obedience to Scripture and Tradition, and attentive to the need to discern the mind of the whole Church Catholic in matters touching on Faith and Order, lead us to doubt the sacramental ministry of those women ordained to the priesthood by the Church of England since 1994. Having said that, we have engaged with the life of the Church of England in a myriad of ways, nationally and locally, and have made sincere efforts to work courteously and carefully with those with whom we disagree. In the midst of this disagreement over Holy Order, we have, we believe, borne particular witness to the cause of Christian unity, and to the imperative of Our Lord’s command that ‘all may be one.’ We include those who have given many years service to the Church in the ordained ministry, and others who are very newly ordained. We believe that we demonstrate the vitality of the tradition which we represent and which has formed us in our discipleship and ministry – a tradition which, we believe, constitutes an essential and invaluable part of the life and character of the Church of England, without which it would be deeply impoverished. -
It's All in the Story
together THE VOICE OF CATHOLIC ANGLICANS SUMMER 2016 It’s all in the Story How do you discern an authentic vocation to public ministry in God’s Church? In recent years the Church of England has relied heavily on criteria for ministry, looking for Page 3 those gifts and skills that are seen to be necessary for ordination. Although it tries hard not to be a checklist, at Being a first glance it can seem rather like a series of hurdles to be Church overcome or circumvented! warden A long way from the Man of Galilee who strolled among Page 4 fishermen and ate with tax collectors to find those all important first twelve disciples. Ordinary men, talented and flawed, who supported Jesus in his earthly ministry and despite a few wobbles, ‘did him proud’ for the rest of their earthly lives. Jesus obviously saw something special in each of them, the something that gave him confidence to invest in them and spend so much time with them. He had three short years to proclaim the Good News and in-break the Kingdom, and most of it he chose to spend with ordinary people in very ordinary places. And this is why story is so important. I remember very well those first conversations I Jessica Smith had around vocation with my Reader Page 14 Continued on page 2 The new Chairman The Challenge of Monasticism of the ACS Page 6 page 13 pages 7-10 2 Together SUMMER 2016 visit our website: www.here-i-am.org.uk Continued from front page It’s all in the Story parish priest and friends as I began to begin with tea on Friday 2nd September explore what it all might mean to seek and ends after lunch on Sunday 4th. -

Faith Leaders Call for 'Jubilee for Justice'
Faith Leaders Call for 'Jubilee for Justice' Following the year of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, we recall the ancient custom of the Jubilee Year, in which debts would be cancelled. The Hebrew scriptures speak of a Jubilee Year in Despite these achievements, over the last thirty which unpayable debts should be cancelled. The years there has been a series of debt crises Gospel writer, Luke, records that Jesus began his culminating in the present one in Europe. A self- public ministry with a call to restore the just serving financial system has brought the global economy of Jubilee where all have enough. Jesus economy to its knees and we are now seeing the also tells those who have assets, to lend without poorest people in our own society and around the expecting a return. The Holy Qur’an condemns usury world paying the price for this excess. and requires zakah (almsgiving) as an essential duty to prevent wealth being accumulated only among That is why we ask people everywhere to join in the rich. calling for a renewed Jubilee. Finance must be put back in its place as a means to human well being. The Dharmic faiths from the Indian sub-continent We need far reaching changes in the global also teach the same principle. In the Anguttara economy to build a society based on justice, mutual Nikaya, Buddhists read, ‘One holds wealth not for support and community. We need economic and oneself but for all beings.’ Sikhs believe in earning political as well as spiritual renewal in our society. -
Feast of St. Joseph 2021 Dear Friends, Tuesday 23 March Will Mark the First Anniversary of the National Lockdown. It Will Be
Feast of St. Joseph 2021 Dear Friends, Tuesday 23 March will mark the first anniversary of the National Lockdown. It will be a day for remembrance and lament for us as Christians as we reflect on the terrible damage that the Covid-19 pandemic has wrought across our nation and our world. We as Christians will pray for the repose of the souls of over 125,000 people who have died in the UK alone after testing positive for Covid-19, and so many more world-wide, each one a beloved and precious child of God, mourned by family and friends. We offer our devotional video on praying for the dead [link] as a support and a comfort to those who grieve (1). We will also pray for those who have fallen ill to this disease, especially those with the chronic symptoms of long Covid. We will pray for those who face financial ruin or debt because of the loss of jobs or businesses. We will pray for deprived urban communities, many served by Society parishes, who have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic and those families who are coping with hunger and destitution. We will pray for the professionals in health, education, social care, local government and other walks of life who have endured such a stressful and challenging year. And we will pray for our churches and for Christians who have felt again and again the desolate pain of being denied access to the sacraments of life. Christians are often tempted to reach too soon for easy answers to complex problems or contrive shallow ‘good news stories’ out of the gloom. -
