  • A Service of Celebration and Renewal
    A Service of Celebration and Renewal Saturday 10 April 2021 10.30am Welcome to Southwell Minster As you prepare for worship, please be sensitive to the needs of those around you who may wish to pray in silence. Please switch off mobile telephones and do not use photographic, video or recording equipment at any time. A loop system is in operation throughout the Minster. Hearing aids that are equipped to do so should be switched to the ‘T’ position or the loop setting appropriate to your equipment. Large print orders of service are available. Please ask a Churchwarden, Sidesman or Verger for a copy. Please speak to a Verger if you need to use the toilet facilities. We are a Fairtrade cathedral, committed to continuing and increasing our use of fairly traded goods wherever possible. The congregation is invited to join in all texts printed in bold. This service is led by The Very Revd Nicola Sullivan, Dean of Southwell. The preacher is the Bishop of Southwell and Nottingham, The Rt Revd Paul Williams. The organ is played by James Furniss-Roe, Organ Scholar. Due to current restrictions there will be no collection at this service; however, donations are greatly appreciated and can be made at www.frameworkha.org. Thank you for your support. Face coverings are currently required in places of worship, so please wear one inside the Cathedral unless you have a medically recognised reason not to do so. Thank you for providing your name and contact details when you registered for or arrived at this service. This measure is in support of the NHS’s Test and Trace pro- gramme.

  • The House of Bishops of the Church of England Has Today Welcomed Eight Women As Participant Observers to Its Meetings
    The House of Bishops of the Church of England has today welcomed eight women as participant observers to its meetings. The welcome follows the election of the eight senior women clergy from regions across the country. In February of this year the House decided that until such time as there are six female members of the House, following the admission of women to the episcopate, a number of senior women clergy should be given the right to attend and speak at meetings of the House as participant observers. The necessary change to the House's Standing Orders was made in May. Elections for the eight senior women clergy were held in autumn of this year and the following were elected: • East Midlands - Ven Christine Wilson, Archdeacon of Chesterfield • West Midlands - Revd Preb. Dr Jane Tillier, Preb of Lichfield Cathedral • East Anglia - Ven Annette Cooper, Archdeacon of Colchester • South and Central - Ven Joanne Grenfell, Archdeacon of Portsdown • South East region - Ven Rachel Treweek, Archdeacon of Hackney • South West region - Ven Nicola Sullivan, Archdeacon of Wells • North East Very Revd Vivienne Faull, Dean of York • North West - The Rev Libby Lane, Dean of Women in Ministry, Chester Diocese Having taken up their role on 1st December, the two day meeting of the House of Bishops in York on December 9-10 will be the first meeting at which the participant observers will attend.

  • Issue No. 7 May to July 2014
    Issue No. 7 May to July 2014 Welcome to the seventh edition of the Newark and Southwell Deanery Newsletter. Dear All, This June I will be standing down as your Lay Chair of Deanery Synod, having been in post for six years. Prior to this I was joint Lay Chair of the newly formed Newark and Southwell Deanery and before that was Lay Chair of Southwell Deanery for six years. As far as my youngest daughter, who is now 18, is concerned, I have always been a Lay chair! In that time many things have changed. The diocese changed its name in 2005, from the Diocese of Southwell to the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham. Three Diocesan Bishops have come and gone and the role of the Deanery and Deanery Leadership team within the diocesan structure has become more involved. As an administrative structure we have been given more responsibility for the day to day running of the deanery, involving allocation of share across the parishes and planning of deanery structure and staffing through various targets set by the diocese - 2012 and 2020. The journey has not been easy. There are some things that have worked better than others. By listening to what folks have to say, both the good and the bad, we hope we are able to serve the deanery more effectively. Money and share and the enormous responsibility of the upkeep of our glorious parish churches has always been and will remain an ongoing juggling act between the needs of our parishes and the desire to join together in the Transforming Mission of God in the wider diocese and beyond.

  • Canon Precentor Profile
    CANON PRECENTOR CANDIDATE INFORMATION PACK 1 Thank you for your interest in Southwell Cathedral’s key position of Canon Precentor. I was installed as Dean of Southwell in September 2016, having previously served as the Archdeacon of Wells and part-time residential Canon. It has been a joy to lead this Cathedral during the last two years, especially as the Chapter shapes and develops its strategic plan for mission to enable Southwell Minster to best serve our Bishop, the diocese, the county of Nottinghamshire and the city of Nottingham, and the local parish. In consultation with the Chapter, the Bishop of Southwell and Nottingham, wishes to appoint a Canon Precentor who will lead the creative development of Southwell Cathedral’s musical and liturgical life. This is a critical appointment, full of exciting opportunity and we are praying for a clergy colleague who understands the joy of daily worship and yet is also outward-focused to engage with God’s world, and who has a profound love of people and ministry. The Minster is above all a place of prayer and pilgrimage, often remarked on as being peaceful and warm in welcome. At the heart of this beautiful and iconic building is a living Christian community longing to grow in love, faith and action. We hope that the enclosed information encourages you to consider whether God is calling you to apply to be this key member of the team and Chapter. While you will need to demonstrate that you have relevant experience combined with liturgical and musical competence, we are also looking for a priest who is willing to learn, grow and be instrumental in shaping our future under God, with a heart for mission.
