Multiply Associate Team Leader Multiply Associate Team Leader Reaching and Discipling 20s – 40s With its network of parishes covering the country, the Church of England plays an active role in national life, bringing an important Christian dimension to the nation, as well as strengthening community life. The Church of England is arranged geographically into 41 Dioceses, each under the care of a Bishop, and covers every part of England. The Diocese of York takes in much of North and East Yorkshire, an area which includes the cities of York and Hull, as well as Middlesbrough and Selby, two National Parks, and the incomparable Yorkshire coast. We are led and guided in our faith and work by the Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell. York Minster is our principal church. The Diocese is socially and economically diverse. Whilst some communities are generally affluent, 27 percent of the people in our Diocese live in parishes that are designated as within the most deprived tenth nationally. There are pockets of deprivation in communities of all kinds and sizes, both urban and rural. The Diocesan Office is located at Clifton Moor in York. Led by Canon Peter Warry, Diocesan Secretary and Chief Executive, our teams provide services in support of our clergy, churches, parishes and schools. Alongside mission and ministry work, this includes our Pastoral team, working closely with our parishes; our Education team, working closely with our schools; and our support functions including Safeguarding, Property, Finance, HR and Communications. Our Vision and Strategy We are bringing fresh energy to our refreshed diocesan vision: Living Christ’s Story. This commits us to: Becoming more like Christ Reaching people we currently don't Growing churches of missionary disciples Transforming our finances and structures Two key strategies in reaching people we currently don’t are focused on: Mustard Seed, launched in 2020, focused on People in Poverty Multiply, launched in 2019, focused on those in their 20s - 40s. Both these initiatives are supported by significant contributions from the Church Commissioners’ Strategic Development Fund. Diocese of York ~ Living Christ’s Story The Multiply Programme Our approach The diocesan approach to reaching 20s – 40s includes the following key features: The appointment of full time stipendiary posts to work in 12 parochial contexts A Growth Fund to resource parishes, especially via part time lay appointments The establishment of St Michael-le-Belfrey in York as a Resource Church that will regularly plant out into other parts of the diocese Our goals have always included a renewed envisioning and equipping of churches leading to a ‘ripple effect’ across the diocese as we develop our insights and grow in confidence about how to reach and disciple 20s – 40s. Our aim is that church planting and replication of effective ministries will be established as a norm across the diocese. Our progress so far Multiply has been running for two years and, despite the frustrations that the COVID pandemic has brought, there is much to encourage us. A central element of Multiply is enabling the creation of New Worshipping Communities led by lay people. The Growth Fund provides grant funding and a training programme to support churches who are planting new worshipping communities that reach and disciple younger adults. It is supporting 9 current initiatives and has funding for another 20 posts, with some parishes already in the process of applying for funding and/or support. The funding is for five years with the local parish taking on an increasing proportion each year. Some parishes benefit from the support for their leaders without receiving a specific funding grant. Any parish in the Diocese of York can apply to be part of Multiply. The grant funding enables lay leaders to be employed part time to plant new worshipping communities where they are building on existing mission and beginning to reach people in their 20s, 30s and 40s. The grants are being made to parishes who want to see younger adults engaging more with their churches and who are already connecting in some ways with this group through missional activities or outreach work such as Messy Church, a Toddler group, Start courses, a Food Bank, or other activities. The full time Multiply appointments are based in the urban and market town locations in the diocese. They are at different stages in growing New Worshipping Communities. As well as this they give a part of their time to supporting the Growth Fund leaders and to mission in their deaneries. Our Resource Church, St Michael le Belfrey, is making preparations for its current curate to move and revive an existing parish church. It is intended that this pattern will be repeated every two years. Our website multiplyreach.org has more on locations and current stories 2 The Opportunity Multiply was launched under a Director of Making and Nurturing Disciples, Richard White. Richard has moved back into parish ministry (taking on a challenging role in one of our lowest income communities with a significant student population) and a Director of Mission and Ministry has been appointed. Ian McIntosh will have oversight of among other areas, Multiply and Mustard Seed. We now have an opportunity for a committed Christian, with a passion for seeing young adults become disciples, to join the Multiply team as Associate Team Leader. Working with John Lee, the Multiply Team Leader, and Alice Lambert-Ellis, who provides programme support across Multiply and Mustard Seed, the post-holder will have particular responsibility for continuing the development of lay aspects of the initiative. This particular focus reflects a survey of Fresh Expressions by the Church Army Research Unit, highlighting that very few are led by lay people - addressing this is an important part of our strategy. You will be responsible for growing the lay leadership of New Worshipping Communities across the diocese. Using the ‘Growth Fund’ as a primary vehicle for this, you will support parishes in shaping their applications and mentor the leaders who are appointed, both individually and by team coaching. You will also contribute to the work of Multiply as it encourages and enables all churches to reach younger adults in their 20s, 30s and 40s – running occasional workshops and events to envision and inform parishes. You will take the lead in the conversations with parishes, exploring with the Incumbent, potential leader and sometimes the full Parochial Church Council their plans and the most effective way to deliver them. Often this leads to a Growth Fund application and this role of ‘broker’ enables parishes to prepare well and find the most appropriate shape for their ventures; on occasions it can involve disappointing a parish if it is felt their plans cannot be supported. Throughout the process you will be supported by a ‘Steering Group’ who offer their reflections and support and who are required to endorse successful applications. You will bring experience of training and developing leaders, and have a track record as a pioneering practitioner among groups of young adults. You will be comfortable working within Church of England structures and cultures. Self-motivated and well-organised, you will be willing to work within a team to achieve common goals. This is a full-time post, but we are also open to hearing from people who would be interested in working part-time, potentially sharing the role with another person. The post-holder would principally be based at our office at Clifton Moor in York. However, as a role requiring significant travel and some flexibility around working hours, there will be opportunities to work from home where this provides a better fit. (Note that, due to public health guidelines, our office is currently closed). We offer generous salary, pension, holiday and other benefits. The post is available on a three-year fixed-term contract. Recruitment For an informal discussion about this opportunity please contact Revd John Lee, Multiply Team Leader by email to [email protected], or call 07810 171855. Applications should be made online via the Pathways Church of England recruitment portal. The deadline is midnight on Monday 19 July. Interviews will be held late July / early August. 3 Job Description Purpose To envision and enable the role of the laity in reaching and discipling 20s - 40s and ensure support, advice and resources is available to them.

We hope this pack will give you a good idea of what it might be like to live and work in the Diocese of York. Contents: Vision and mission Living in the Diocese Housing and money Ministry together Lifelong learning Spiritual sustenance York Minster Central support Young people Who’s who “We will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.” Ephesians 4:14 & 15 Vision and mission We have a vision of Generous Churches Making and Nurturing Disciples. “We will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.” Ephesians 4:14 & 15 As a Diocese, we want to see our churches making disciples of all ages. We want to see mutual resourcing to build up the Body of Christ, to grow in five areas: • Christ-likeness Becoming like Christ is the fundamental call of Christian discipleship. It is not always easy to assess, but we often recognise the flavour of a life becoming more godly. • Commitment Commitment itself has several features, including: commitment to God, to seeking God’s kingdom, to Christ’s body the Church. • Partnership Working with other churches, locally and globally, with schools, community groups, people, organisations for the common good, peace, justice and a healthy environment.

  • 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.

  • Brochure and Events Programme 2019 a Prayerful Community Renewing the Church’S Mission
    Brochure and Events Programme 2019 A Prayerful Community Renewing the Church’s Mission 1 2 Welcome Wydale, the retreat house of the Diocese of York, seeks to be ‘a prayerful community, renewing the Church’s mission’. We long to see people, of all ages and from all backgrounds, encountering Jesus, being renewed by his spirit and growing in his love. We have put together the 2019 programme of events to provide opportunities for everyone, regardless of age or position, to come together around themes of common interest. The programme seeks to complement the great work taking place in churches across the Diocese, and that of the York Diocesan Training Team, by providing events to which anyone is welcome. These events are put on by Wydale and facilitated by experienced people, both ordained and lay, who are each part of the Wydale community in a variety of ways. We are exceptionally grateful to those who contribute their time, wisdom and experience to the programme voluntarily. In this brochure there are details of what we have planned for 2019. Some events are short, a morning, afternoon or evening. Others are day-long, some overnight and others are several days in length. Some of the events are designed for learning, some for prayer and reflection and others a combination of these. There are even a couple which are just for fun . You will see that each of our events has details about the cost. While we would love to offer our events free of charge this is not usually possible. However, if you would like to participate in one of our events but find the price prohibitive, do please talk to us about this.

I wish to express my gratitude towards the Graduiertenkolleg Codierung von Gewalt im medialen Wandel for giving me the opportunity to work with a number of amazing individuals and exchange ideas across disciplinary boundaries, and also for providing the financial means to make travelling in order to do research for this project possible. Special thanks goes out to the helpful staff at Gloucestershire Archives. Above all, I am greatly indebted to Prof. Sabine Schülting for providing the warm intellectual home in which this project could thrive, and for blending munificent support with astute criticism. I am most grateful to have benefited from her supervision. I wish to extend my most heartfelt thanks to Maggie Rouse, Sabine Lucia Müller, Anja Schwarz, Judith Luig, and to Kai Wiegandt for their insightful comments on various parts of this dissertation in various stages, but, more importantly, for unerring support and motivation. These were also given most generously by my brother-in-law, Matthias Pohlig, who read the manuscript with a keen historian's eye and provided invaluable feedback at a crucial stage of its genesis.

A knowledge of the conditions of his task should make the historian of Jesus take a modest view of its importance ; for, though the tree sprung from Alcock"s acorn has now grown to some size and not a little vigour, for the best part of its existence it was overshadowed by taller neighbours in the academic grove. In fact, except in some short periods of unwonted prosperity, Jesus was, until recent ' 1 times, emphatically a small college, low in revenues, and in numbers competing with Peterhouse and Magda- lene rather than with Caius or Christ's.
