  • 1 Identity and Ministry in Healthcare Chaplaincy
    Identity and Ministry in Healthcare Chaplaincy: The liminality of the Church of England priest who continues to sing the Lord’s song in the strange land of the National Health Service Submitted by Anthony Paul Richard Kyriakides-Yeldham to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology in March 2017 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) _______________________________ 1 Abstract This thesis examines the dual identity of the Church of England priest employed as an NHS healthcare chaplain. In 1948, full-time NHS chaplains provided a Church of England ministry of liturgy and pastoral care. Their twenty-first century counterpart delivers existential spiritual or pastoral care. Though Church of England chaplains are licensed by the Church, their work is shaped by the NHS and the Trust which employs them. They are accountable to the Church and the NHS even though each promotes different values and serves different ends. Published literature alludes to the chaplain’s sense of marginalization from the Church and within the NHS. Interviews with twelve full-time NHS chaplains, who are Church of England priests, focused on how they interpreted their dual identity as priest and chaplain, and the impact the two institutions had on these identities.

Christian Weekly News - The dedication ceremony was conducted by Dr Christopher Rosik, President-elect of the US National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (foreground left) and Professor Robert Gagnon, of Pittsburg Theological Seminary (foreground right). They were among the keynote speakers at national conferences in London and Northern Ireland, which aimed to highlight the loss of freedom for UK citizens to seek professional help to change unwanted homosexual feelings. CIT is a non-profit Christian ministry led by Dr Mike Davidson, one of two therapists who have been banned by their professional bodies from offering the change therapy. Another banned counsellor, Lesley Pilkington, will join Dr Davidson in offering talking therapies to clients seeking to lose or reduce same-sex feelings. A third counsellor, Phelim McIntyre, will also be providing therapeutic support at consulting rooms at 70 Wimpole Street, London W1G 8AX, headquarters of Christian Concern and at the headquarters of CIT in Belfast.

Abstract The Church of England’s traditional theology of marriage between one man and one woman is protected in the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act 2013 from reforms to civil law to include same-sex couples. Within the Church of England, same-sex couples who enter civil unions (of partnership or marriage) are not permitted to have a service in church to celebrate with prayer for God’s blessing.
