The Rector has oversight of a Cathedral parish of approximately 300 members in a city of about 100,000. The position is supported by part-time paid staff: an office coordinator, a custodian, a music director and a youth coordinator. Leadership is supported by retired honorary assistant clergy, two wardens, two Lay Ministers of Word and Sacrament, plus a large group of volunteers in groups, teams and standing committees. The Rector of the Cathedral is also the Dean of the Diocese of the Territory of the People (the Territory) and as such is the second ecclesiastical officer – next to the Bishop. The Dean therefore participates significantly in the offices of the Territory. We are looking for a new Dean who is passionate and experienced in preaching, parish growth and development, leadership and pastoral care. We are seeking an effective communicator who is compassionate, friendly, engaging, and energetic to help guide St. Paul's vision for many years to come. Three areas the Cathedral Community has indicated are priorities in ministry are: 1) Supportive in strengthening Children, Youth and Families Ministry, 2) Comfortable with both BAS and BCP worship and open to exploring new ways of worship, 3) Proficient and comfortable with modern technology and virtual ministry. Clergy from the wider church must present confirmation they are a priest in good standing and have their bishop’s permission to seek employment opportunities outside their own diocese. A current Criminal Records Check must be submitted with the application. Parish Profiles are available now. Applications should be made by 31 May 2021. Interested clergy are invited to contact: The Rt. Rev. Lincoln Mckoen Territory of the People Anglican Church 360 Nicola Street Kamloops, BC V2C 2P5 email: [email protected] Phone: 778-471-5573 .

1.1. the Deanery Provides an Important Two-Way Line Of
1. THE DEANERY STRUCTURE 1.1. The Deanery provides an important two-way line of communication and information between the parishes and the Diocese for collaborative efforts and the sharing of best- practices in a radian. The deanery facilitates the convening of priests (pastors, parochial vicars, active, and retired), deacons, and administrators of parishes of the Deanery, at least four times a year, for meetings to discuss and achieve a uniform application of diocesan policies, programs, and broad implementation of the pastoral initiatives of the Bishop, as well as uniform observance of the diocesan statues and policy. The deanery structure fosters cooperative endeavors and the sharing of resources between parishes and the Diocese as well as between parishes themselves. 1.2. A direct line of communication is to be maintained between the Presbyteral Council and the local deaneries. Each deanery will have an Ex-Officio representative on the Presbyteral Council, who will share information from meetings with the deaneries as well as bring suggestions and concerns to the Presbyteral Council. While each deanery is to meet at least four times a year, some deaneries choose to meet monthly which helps to keep open communication between the Presbyteral Council and the local deaneries. To help inform this conversation, it is important that minutes from the deanery meetings be sent as soon as possible to the Office of the Chancellor for dissemination to Presbyteral Council members. 1.3. There are five deaneries within the Diocese. The Deaneries are divided along county lines, with the exception of Hampden County being split into “East” and “West”.

The Dean and the Deanery
7 DIOCESE OF EAST ANGLIA Diocesan policy on THE DEANERY AND THE ROLE OF THE DEAN THE DEANERY How is the universal Catholic Church structured? The whole people of God is a communion of dioceses, each entrusted to the pastoral leadership and care of a bishop. The diocese is then ‘divided into distinct parts or parishes’ (Code of Canon Law, 374.1). Each parish is by nature an integral part of the diocese. What then is a deanery? ‘To foster pastoral care by means of common action, several neighbouring parishes can be joined together in special groupings, such as deaneries’ (Code of Canon Law, 374.2). Each deanery is led by a Dean appointed by the bishop to act in his name. In a scattered diocese such as ours, with many small parishes, working together in deaneries can be very fruitful, not only for the mutual support and care of the clergy, but also for pastoral and spiritual collaboration at local level. In each deanery, there are to be regular meetings of the clergy, priests and deacons, diocesan and religious, of that grouping of parishes. All are expected to attend such meetings and participate as fully as possible in deanery life and work. In each deanery, there are to be regular meetings of lay representatives of each parish with all the clergy of the deanery, so as to facilitate active participation by lay people in local pastoral action and decision-making. The following norms for the role of the Dean came into effect from 21 November 2003. THE ROLE OF THE DEAN 1.

Episcopal Church Style Guide
Episcopal Church Style Guide The official name of the church is The Episcopal Church. When writing about the Episcopal Church, please follow these guidelines: * In the first reference, the full name of the church is preferred: The Episcopal Church. * When referring to church members, the term “Episcopalians” is preferred. We elect a Presiding Bishop, who is our chief pastor and primate of the church. Chosen by the House of Bishops from one of its members, the Presiding Bishop serves for nine years, or until normal retirement age, if that occurs first. In formal usage, he or she is known as “The Most Reverend”,” usually abbreviated to “The Most Rev.” His or her first name (or preferred forename) is always used, together with an initial if applicable (e.g., “The Most Rev. John A. Smith”, or “The Most Rev. A. John Smith”). All other bishops should be addressed as above, but using the form “The Rt. Rev.” Priests and deacons are referred to as “The Rev.” Our church is organized into dioceses, and there is at least one diocese in each state. However, some states have two or more dioceses. For example, we have a Diocese of New Jersey, but in the northern part of the state there is a Diocese of Newark. Likewise, there is a Diocese of Texas, but there are several other dioceses in that state. The Bishop with jurisdiction of a diocese is usually known as the “diocesan bishop”, and is sometimes known as the “Ordinary.” He or she may have other bishops to assist, who are referred to as “bishops suffragan” and are elected in the same way that bishops are, by representatives of the members of the diocese.

Papal Transitions
Backgrounder Papal Transition 2013 prepared by Office of Media Relations United States Conference of Catholic Bishops 3211 Fourth Street NE ∙ Washington, DC 20017 202-541-3200 ∙ 202-541-3173 fax ∙ www.usccb.org/comm Papal Transitions Does the Church have a formal name for the transition period from one pope to another? Yes, in fact, this period is referred to by two names. Sede vacante, in the Church’s official Latin, is translated "vacant see," meaning that the see (or diocese) of Rome is without a bishop. In the 20th century this transition averaged just 17 days. It is also referred to as the Interregnum, a reference to the days when popes were also temporal monarchs who reigned over vast territories. This situation has almost always been created by the death of a pope, but it may also be created by resignation. When were the most recent papal transitions? On April 2, 2005, Pope John Paul II died at the age of 84 after 26 years as pope. On April 19, 2005, German Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, formerly prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, was elected to succeed John Paul II. He took the name Pope Benedict XVI. There were two in 1978. On August 6, 1978, Pope Paul VI died at the age of 80 after 15 years as pope. His successor, Pope John Paul I, was elected 20 days later to serve only 34 days. He died very unexpectedly on September 28, 1978, shocking the world and calling the cardinals back to Rome for the second time in as many months.

Key Roles and Responsibilities of Church Office Holders and Bodies Practice Guidance
Key Roles and Responsibilities of Church Office Holders and Bodies Practice Guidance House of Bishops Published October 2017 1 Preface Dear Colleagues, This guidance substantially updates and replaces the ‘Responsibilities of Church organisations’ section in ‘Protecting all God’s Children 2010’. It is in line with ‘Promoting a Safer Church’: the Church of England policy statement for the children, young people and adults. It recognises that the Church of England is not a single entity. Rather, it consists of many essentially autonomous office holders and other bodies, including both ancient ecclesiastical corporations and modern statutory corporations (many of which are charities). It aims to clarify key safeguarding roles and responsibilities for church office holders and bodies within this complex structure to support a consistent approach to safeguarding across the whole Church. The House of Bishops commends this practice guidance for use by all Church Bodies, including parishes, dioceses, cathedrals, religious communities, theological colleges and the national church institutions. I hope that this practice guidance will help church communities further develop clear lines of accountability and leadership responsibilities for the safeguarding arrangements required for all organisations.

The Role of the Dean the Role of the Dean
DIOCESE OF LANCASTER Guidance Notes The Role of the Dean The Role of the Dean The Dean’s role is primarily pastoral, being an extension of the Bishop’s pastoral role as shepherd. It is an office of apostolic care for the Church in a local area, promoting and sustaining a supra-parochial mission and ministry as envisaged by the Second Vatican Council, embracing clergy, religious and lay people alike. Furthermore, the Dean is the Bishop’s personal representative in the Deanery and acts in this capacity when presiding at liturgical functions, local civic functions, ecumenical activities and similar events. The necessary authority is delegated to him by the Bishop for carrying out the duties set forth in this document. The Dean is also a vital channel of communication between the Bishop and the priests, deacons and people of his Deanery. This implies a two-way flow of information: The Bishop relies on the Dean to implement, at Deanery level, all major diocesan decisions, policies and recommendations. Working in concert with the Bishop, the Dean has the obligation to share with him any concerns that he may have about the common good of all the People of God in the Diocese. He must also represent to the Bishop the views of priests, deacons, religious and people under his pastoral care as the Dean. The establishment of good communication, and the care for appropriate confidentiality, must be priorities for the good working of the Deaneries and the Diocese as a whole. The Appointment of the Dean The Bishop will invite nominations from all the priests of the Deanery before appointing a Dean.

The Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church
The Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church ¾ Introduction ¾ Consistory ¾ College of Cardinals ¾ Canon Law Introduction Following his general audience in St Peter’s Square on 17 October 2007, the Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI, announced the names of 23 prelates to be created cardinals in a consistory to be held on 24 November 2007, the eve of the Feast of Christ the King. As part of this announcement Pope Benedict included the name of Archbishop Seán Brady, the Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland. The consistory will be the second of his pontificate. Following the 24 November consistory, the College of Cardinals will number 202 members of whom 121, under the age of 80, will be electors. Consistory The Consistory for the creation of new Cardinals, according to the new rite introduced during the Consistory of 28 June 1991 contains the following points: - Following a liturgical greeting, the Pope reads the formula of creation, and solemnly proclaims the names of the new cardinals. - The first of the new cardinals then addresses the Holy Father, on behalf of everyone. - This is followed by the Liturgy of the Word, the Pope’s homily, the Profession of Faith and the taking of the oath by each cardinal. - Each new cardinal then approaches the Holy Father and kneels before him to receive the cardinal's berretta and to be assigned a title or deaconry. - The Pope places the berretta on his head and says, in part: "(This is) red as a sign of the dignity of the office of a cardinal, signifying that you are ready to act with fortitude, even to the point of spilling your blood for the increase of the Christian faith, for peace and harmony among the people of God, for freedom and the spread of the Holy Roman Catholic Church" - The new cardinals are assigned a church of Rome (“Title” or “Deaconry”), as a sign of their participation in the pastoral care of the Pope for the City.

Securities and Exchange Commission Historical Society Interview with Robert Dean Pope Conducted on March 12, 2014 by William Thomas
Securities and Exchange Commission Historical Society Interview with Robert Dean Pope Conducted on March 12, 2014 by William Thomas WT: This is an interview with Dean Pope for the SEC Historical Society’s virtual museum and archive of the history of the financial regulation. I’m William Thomas, the date is March 12th, 2014, and we’re in Richmond, Virginia. So, thanks very much for talking with us today. Why don’t we start out with a little bit of your personal background, where you’re from and your education? DP: Well, I grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, which, if you go way back in the history of bonds, was an infamous place. But I didn’t know that at the time I was growing up that the infamous Memphis Bond Daddies, back in the ‘60s I believe, led to first state law, and, I think, had something to do with the first federal legislation. I went to college at Princeton, I went to law school at Yale, and I did graduate work at Yale and Cambridge. I joined Hunton & Williams on January the 2nd, 1974, and I’ve been here ever since. WT: So when you were at Princeton you studied history, I see, and actually went on to get a PhD in the subject. DP: Yes. WT: Could you tell me a little bit about that interest? Interview with Robert Dean Pope, March 12, 2014 2 DP: I never thought I would be a professional academic. It was a terrible time for history grad students to get jobs then.
