  • Archeacon of Gibraltar and Archdeacon of Italy and Malta
    The Bishop in Europe: The Right Reverend Dr. Robert Innes The Suffragan Bishop in Europe: The Right Reverend David Hamid ARCHEACON OF GIBRALTAR AND ARCHDEACON OF ITALY AND MALTA Statement from the Bishops The Diocese in Europe is the 42nd Diocese of the Church of England. We are by far the biggest in terms of land area, as we range across over 42 countries in a territory approximately matching that covered by the Council of Europe, as well as Morocco. We currently attract unprecedented interest within the Church of England, as we are that part of the Church that specifically maintains links with continental Europe at a time of political uncertainty between the UK and the rest of Europe. Along with that, we have been in the fortunate position of being able to recruit some very high calibre lay and ordained staff. To help oversee our vast territory we have two bishops, the Diocesan Bishop Robert Innes who is based in Brussels, and the Suffragan Bishop David Hamid who is based in London. We have a diocesan office within Church House Westminster. We maintain strong connections with staff in the National Church Institutions. Importantly, and unlike English dioceses, our chaplaincies pay for their own clergy, and the diocese has relatively few support staff. Each appointment matters greatly to us. The diocesan strategy was formulated and approved over the course of 2015. We are emphasising our commitment to building up congregational life, our part in the re- evangelisation of the continent; our commitment to reconciliation at every level; and our particular role in serving the poor, the marginalised and the migrant.

  • Bishop's Statement
    Suffragan Bishop: The Right Reverend David Hamid A Statement from Bishop David on St Alban’s Church, Copenhagen. A Supplement to the Chaplaincy Profile - 15 August 2008 Archdeaconry and Diocese St Alban’s Copenhagen is part of the Archdeaconry of Germany and Northern Europe, and the Deanery of the Nordic Baltic States, within the Diocese in Europe. The chaplain is required to participate, along with the lay representatives, in the life of the Archdeaconry and Deanery. The synodical life has for several years focussed around the Deanery which meets for about 3 days residentially each year. (The position of Archdeacon of Germany and Northern Europe is presently vacant). The Revd Nicholas Howe, the chaplain in Stockholm, is the Area Dean. Each archdeaconry in the diocese has a lead bishop, either the Diocesan Bishop or the Suffragan Bishop, to provide pastoral care for the clergy and congregations, oversight of routine vacancy and appointment processes, care of title curates, consultation with mission agencies, strategic direction, mission planning and new initiatives. The Suffragan Bishop in Europe is the lead bishop for the Archdeaconry of Germany and Northern Europe. Ecumenical and Inter-Church Relations The Diocese in Europe has a distinct ecumenical vocation and our priests have a key role in carrying out this vocation. The diocesan guidelines and regulations state that the Diocese in Europe seeks “to minister and engage in mission in partnership with other Churches especially the historic Churches of the countries in which we live”. The major Church partner in Denmark is the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Denmark. Although not a signatory to the Porvoo Common Statement, this Church has observer status at Porvoo meetings.

  • The Canterbury Association
    The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry.

Nicholas Dixon November 2018 ii Thesis Summary The Activity and Influence of the Established Church in England, c. 1800-1837 Nicholas Andrew Dixon Pembroke College, Cambridge This thesis examines the various ways in which the Church of England engaged with English politics and society from c. 1800 to 1837. Assessments of the early nineteenth-century Church of England remain coloured by a critique originating in radical anti-clerical polemics of the period and reinforced by the writings of the Tractarians and Élie Halévy. It is often assumed that, in consequence of social and political change, the influence of a complacent and reactionary church was irreparably eroded by 1830.

Europe is both a territorial land mass and an idea. Throughout its history Europe has been a source of division and contest. Competing and often irreconcilable forces have often developed, and sometimes imposed, their own views as to what ‘Europe’ constitutes. Europe has never had clear or settled boundaries. Attempts to define Europe, either in terms of geography, culture, religion, politics, social or economic interaction, invariably produce different boundaries. The Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe, for instance, sees Europe as stretching from ‘Vancouver to Vladivostock’. This contrasts with the Europe of Western Catholic Christendom which stretches from ‘Dublin to Lublin’. The easternmost regions of the Continent – lands evangelised by the Eastsern Orthodox Churches – have a particularly ambiguous attitude to the idea and new structures of Europe, especially after a century of revolution and totalitarian communism. 2. This definitional uncertainty means that Europe has often been defined by what it is not. Thus Europe stops where Asia or Africa begins; or where traditional Christendom gives way to other creeds. Following the end of the Second World War, Europe has become more closely associated with the European Union. Countries that accede to the EU are seen as joining Europe.

  • Archdeacons News
    THE ARCHDEACONS’ FORUM for the Church of England and the Church in Wales Archdeacons’ News Bulletin no. 41 February 2019 from Norman Boakes Archdeacons’ National Development Officer It was wonderful to see so many archdeacons at the national conference Dealers in Hope in January. I think it was our largest attendance for very many years and the atmosphere and collegiality were inspiring and affirming. We were also blessed with very good speakers. The worship framework offered by Hopeweavers really did weave prayer, worship and hope through the conference. Thank you to all those who attended and participated so fully and thank you also to those who have shared their reflections on the conference already. If there is anything you would like the Forum Executive to consider when we review the event and start the planning for the next one, please send it to me by the end of February. In case anyone is interested, Jessica Martin has sent me an electronic copy of her address Hope, Desire and the Unexpected which she gave during our Closing Eucharist. If you would like a copy, just let me know. For those of us with Welsh connections, this year is one of those rare occasions when we can celebrate St David’s Day outside of Lent. Whatever you are planning for Lent, I hope it will be a time which allows for space and renewal, and an opportunity to continue reflections on how we may better be Dealers in Hope.

  • CHAPLAIN of ST. PAUL's TERVUREN Statement from The
    The Bishop in Europe: The Right Reverend Dr. Robert Innes CHAPLAIN OF ST. PAUL’S TERVUREN Statement from the Diocesan Bishop The Diocese in Europe is the 42nd Diocese of the Church of England. We are by far the biggest in terms of land area, as we range across over 40 countries in a territory approximately matching that covered by the Council of Europe. Our diocesan strategy emphasises our commitment to building up congregational life, our part in the re-evangelisation of the continent; our commitment to reconciliation at every level; and our particular role in serving the poor, the marginalised and the migrant. In the wake of the Brexit vote, Anglican commitment to sister churches in continental Europe appears even more important, and the Diocese in Europe currently attracts an unprecedented level of interest within the Church of England. St. Paul’s Tervuren was planted in 1988 from the Pro-Cathedral of Holy Trinity. It was intended to provide worship for the large community of ex-pats who live on the beautiful and forested east side of the city. The plant was an immediate success! Over its life St. Paul’s has used Catholic premises and, most especially, the British School of Brussels (BSB). Plans at various times to build its own premises never quite came to fruition. Meeting in the BSB has significant ongoing advantages in terms of costs, but it does mean dealing with access problems and maintaining the best possible relationships with the school. St. Paul’s is an Evangelical community with worship influenced by the Charismatic movement.
