    A Report on the Developments in Women’s Ministry in 2018 WATCH Women and the Church A Report on the Developments in Women’s Ministry 2018 In 2019 it will be: • 50 years since women were first licensed as Lay Readers • 25 years since women in the Church of England were first ordained priests • 5 years since legislation was passed to enable women to be appointed bishops In 2018 • The Rt Rev Sarah Mullaly was translated from the See of Crediton to become Bishop of London (May 12) and the Very Rev Viv Faull was consecrated on July 3rd, and installed as Bishop of Bristol on Oct 20th. Now 4 diocesan bishops (out of a total of 44) are women. In December 2018 it was announced that Rt Rev Libby Lane has been appointed the (diocesan) Bishop of Derby. • Women were appointed to four more suffragan sees during 2018, so at the end of 2018 12 suffragan sees were filled by women (from a total of 69 sees). • The appointment of two more women to suffragan sees in 2019 has been announced. Ordained ministry is not the only way that anyone, male or female, serves the church. Most of those who offer ministries of many kinds are not counted in any way. However, WATCH considers that it is valuable to get an overview of those who have particular responsibilities in diocese and the national church, and this year we would like to draw attention to The Church Commissioners. This group is rarely noticed publicly, but the skills and decisions of its members are vital to the funding of nearly all that the Church of England is able to do.

  • GENERAL SYNOD GENERAL SYNOD ELECTIONS 2015 Report by the Business Committee
    GS 1975 GENERAL SYNOD GENERAL SYNOD ELECTIONS 2015 Report by the Business Committee Summary The Synod is invited to approve the allocation of places for the directly elected diocesan representatives to the Lower Houses of the Convocations and to the House of Laity for the quinquennium 2015-2020. The calculations have been made in accordance with the provisions of Canon H 2 and Rule 36 of the Church Representation Rules. A summary of the proposed allocation for clergy places and any change from the allocation in 2010 is set out at Appendix A and for lay places at Appendix B. Appendix C sets out the overall position. The allocations of eighteen dioceses will be different under the proposed allocation from the allocation in the current quinquennium, eleven in the Province of Canterbury and seven in the Province of York. Background 1. The Business Committee seeks the approval of the General Synod for the customary resolutions to allocate places for directly elected diocesan representatives to the Lower Houses of the Convocations and to the House of Laity for the quinquennium 2015-2020. 2. The legal requirements on which these resolutions are based are contained in Canon H 2 and Rule 36 of the Church Representation Rules. 3. While the principal reason for this report to the Synod is to provide the necessary background information to the resolutions before the Synod, we are also taking the opportunity to remind the Synod of the constitutional provisions affecting the timetable and to give notice of future plans for advising dioceses on the procedures to be followed.

  • Information Pack Introduction
    The Diocese of Sodor and Man Together making Christ visible The Archdeacon of Man and Vicar of St George & All Saints, Douglas Job information pack Introduction We are seeking to appoint an Archdeacon of Man and Vicar of the Parish of St George & All Saints, Douglas, with effect from December 2021. The Crown has the right of appointment to the Archdeaconry and the Bishop the right of patronage to the Parish. It is, therefore, intended that the Crown and Bishop will make a joint appointment. We are looking for a priest, probably with fifteen years of parochial experience, who can imagine and enable God's mission, with energy and a desire to serve God and people, and who is called to use administrative and pastoral gifts in the care and support of our clergy and parishes. The Archdeacon has responsibilities across the whole of the island-diocese, working with colleagues in diocesan roles, with those involved in public ministry, with parishes, with our ecumenical partners and with many non-church agencies in helping to create conditions for mission and growth. The ministry of the Archdeacon is to assist in the efficient and pastorally-sensitive running of the Diocese. The Archdeacon is to encourage the pursuit of excellence to create the best conditions for growth in every dimension of the Christian life and of the mission Christ has committed to His Church. St. George's Church is the civic church of Douglas, effectively only second in significance to the Cathedral, and exercises an important ministry in the wider life of the capital city of the Isle of Man.

  • PR the Story of the Nativity
    Date: 27th October 2020 Isle of Man Post Office Issues The Story of the Nativity on Christmas Stamps 2020 6 Stamps Share a Collection of Beautifully Presented Artworks Depicting the Religious Story of the Nativity This year’s Isle of Man Post Office Christmas stamps, issued on 30 October, feature scenes and artworks inspired by the story of the Nativity. 2020 marks the 40th anniversary of the consecration of the Cathedral Isle of Man. It is the cathedral church of the Church of England Diocese of Sodor and Man and was made a cathedral by Act of Tynwald in 1980. To commemorate this anniversary the Right Reverend Peter Eagles, Bishop of Sodor and Man kindly provided the issue text for this beautiful stamp collection. Issue Text Author the Rt Revd PA Eagles, Bishop of Sodor and Man, said: "These delightful Christmas stamps point to light and hope. The angel speaks of God’s presence in the world, and the simple shepherds are drawn to God’s light and love. Three Kings worship, representing the nations of the world. The light shines in the darkness, and the Mother cradles the Child in profoundest love. The eternal message of Christmas speaks to us today in these six beautiful designs." Nigel Godfrey, Dean of Cathedral Isle of Man, said: ‘It is good to have a stamp issue released on the 40th birthday of the Island’s Cathedral. The Cathedral was actually built a 100 years earlier to replace the ruined one on St Patrick’s Isle, but the driving force behind it - Bishop Rowley Hill died in office before the necessary legislation was passed by Tynwald, so it simply remained a parish church.

  • 1 Diocese of Sodor and Man Financial Legislation 1
    DIOCESE OF SODOR AND MAN FINANCIAL LEGISLATION 1. History 1.1 In earlier times the finances of the Manx Church derived principally from two sources: (a) the endowments (mainly glebe land and tithes) of the See and the parochial benefices, which provided the main income of the bishop and parish clergy and were administered by them, and (b) property and funds given for specific charitable purposes, eg. the education of children, the relief of the poor, the repair of church buildings or the augmentation of the income of the clergy, which were usually under the control of bodies of trustees (the incumbent and churchwardens in the case of parochial trusts). Until recent times there were no diocesan or parochial institutions of a kind we would recognise today, with general responsibilities for church finance or administration. 1.2 The first such institution at the diocesan level was the Church Commissioners for the Isle of Man, who were established as a joint Church-State admin- istrative body 1. It had no general funds of its own, but was able to act as trustee of Church property, and came to administer numerous funds for specific purposes. It was also given a supervisory and management role in connection with episcopal and parochial endowments, and limited powers of pastoral reorganisation. 1.3 At the parochial level, the incumbent and churchwardens continued to hold and administer local trusts, but as part of the democratisation of the Church in the early 20th century, parochial church councils were established to take over a measure of responsibility for parish finance and administration 2.

  • Year of Diocese
    Find out more about The Church of England and The Diocese of York The Church of England The Church of England is led by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York and 106 other bishops. They provide guidance and direction to the churches across the country and make decisions on the Church in society. The General Synod is an assembly of bishops, clergy and laity (all members who are not part of the clergy), and creates the laws of the Church. ‘Synod’ is a Greek word meaning “coming together and finding a way”. The Archbishop of Canterbury has oversight for the ministry and mission in the southern two-thirds of England. He also fills a unique position in the world-wide Anglican communion as spiritual leader. The Archbishop of York has oversight for the ministry and mission in the northern third of England. Together they lead the vision and direction of the Church of England. Our two archbishops and 24 other bishops sit in the House of Lords, making a major contribution to Parliament's work. They are known as Lords Spiritual. Her Majesty the Queen is the Supreme Governor of the Church of England. The Queen appoints archbishops, bishops and deans of cathedrals on the advice of the Prime Minister. There are 42 dioceses in the Church of England (though only 40 are in England, with the other 2 being the Diocese of Sodor and Man and the Diocese of Europe). You can find them all on this map which also shows the dioceses that the Archbishop of Canterbury has oversight of and the dioceses the Archbishop of York has oversight of https://www.churchofengland.org/about/dioceses-our-regional-presence The Diocese of York The Diocese of York in the Church of England is a family of 589 churches and 125 schools in 443 parishes A diocese is a large area that is looked after by a diocesan bishop.
