  • Ministry Commission Report to General Synod 2007
    COMMISSION: MINISTRY MINISTRY COMMISSION The Ministry Commission in this triennium has overviewed ministry practice within the Anglican Church of Australia identifying urgent issues before this Church and responding to the three references made to the Commission by the last General Synod, the Standing Committee and the General Secretary. Membership of the Commission Bishop Brian Farran (Chair), Archbishop Jeffrey Driver, Bishop Rob Nolan, Canon Colleen O’Reilly, Archdeacon Peter Stuart, the Reverends Mark Charleston and Kevin Bourke, Dr. Grahame Feletti. References to the Commission 1. Model Statement for Clergy & Model Performance Review The 2004 General Synod requested the Ministry Commission to develop a model statement for clergy of the expectations and responsibilities of their roles and entitlements at the time of their appointment. The Commission developed such a document which the Standing Committee sent to Dioceses after its October 2006 meeting for the consideration of and response by the dioceses to the Ministry Commission. Only the Diocese of Bendigo has forwarded comments to the Ministry Commission upon this document. The document is too substantial to include in this report. The review of responses to the document will be on the agenda of the Ministry Commission. The second component of the General Synod 2004 reference was the request for the development of a model review of the performance of the clergy. The Commission developed guidelines for the review of clergy in ministry using the mnemonic review. Introduction Throughout the Australian Church there is increased interest in reviewing the effectiveness, appropriateness and direction of clergy ministry. The clergy themselves, bishops and church leaders want to see in what ways the ministry being exercised makes a difference.

  • Developing Ministry at North Terrace 2000–2012
    CHAPTER 15 Developing Ministry at North Terrace 2000–2012 hile the health of the gatherings new and old was the central concern of the pastors led by Paul Harrington, these years saw many other efforts at developing the effectiveness of Holy Trinity’s ministry, both to its existing members and to those Wwho might join once they had heard and been convinced by the teaching on offer. This chapter examines some of those other endeavours over the decade or more since 2000. ***** Setting up and caring for the early years of the Hills congregation while maintaining a clear view of opportunities on North Terrace saw Harrington and his team maintain a fairly steady course through 2000–2001. The procedure of promoting the subsequent year’s budget by publishing a ‘Vision for Ministry’ in the spring was now well established. It permitted Harrington to promote his intentions and get responses to the draft budget from the congregation. The wardens then adjusted their plans accordingly. It made the subsequent annual vestry meetings less fraught, and meant the costs incurred before the Vestry meeting were more predictable. One immediate change saw Andrew Cole joined the team to replace Jeff Parkin, now titled site manager Cole would work with a revivified site management team that lifted the security and general health of the North Terrace buildings. A major pastoral initiative was launched by Lyn Sarah, drawing on her social work experience as well as her developing theological studies. She introduced what she called the ‘PEACE Pastoral Care’ model. Her goal was to develop a growing number of members of the congregation who were trained in a more intentional approach to pastoral care, while not ever pretending to be professional counselors.

This column is being written on the day after Ash Most of the recently built Sydney Anglican Churches Wednesday. This year Ash Wednesday cannot but fit this pattern- they are plain and functional with help to remind us of the tragic Victorian bushfires minimal decoration and generally devoid of religious and the thousands of people who have been so deeply symbolism. They are places to meet with others and the affected by them. focus of attention is a stage with a podium and As Anglicans we are also aware of the two microphone. We no longer have services in such places, communities, Kinglake and Marysville that have seen we have meetings and the buildings express that their churches destroyed and many of their parishioners understanding. rendered homeless. I have to confess that my experience over twenty years of ordained ministry has changed my thinking on the value of the building and made me question the ‘rain shelter’ view. God clearly has a sense of humour for if you had told me at the age of 16 that 40 years later I would be the rector of an Anglican parish with two heritage church buildings complete with stained glass, crosses, candles and liturgical colours I would have been incredulous. So how should we regard our church buildings? To me they function somewhat like the sacraments. They are visible reminders of a spiritual reality, namely the gathered Christian community. For those on the outside, the Church building bears witness to the fact that the people who meet there take God seriously.

  • Media Statement 16 March 2017 Statement from Bishop Peter Stuart
    Media Statement 16 March 2017 Statement from Bishop Peter Stuart On behalf of the Anglican Diocese of Newcastle I express our considerable sadness at the news that Greg Thompson won't be returning to ministry as the Anglican Bishop of Newcastle. In his short time as our Bishop he has been the catalyst for deep cultural change around the protection of children and the support of victims of abuse. He called us to face our past and in doing so shape a healthy future. This will be his enduring legacy. As part of shaping a healthy future, we worked together in November to initiate independent external reviews of diocesan governance and the professional standards and redress processes. These reviews are well underway and will continue the crucial work of transforming the Diocese. Bishop Greg has led the Diocese to greater health. In 2013, the Diocesan family rejoiced that a ‘son of the diocese’ had been elected as the Diocesan Bishop. The clergy and people have delighted in his ministry in parishes, at the diocesan convention and synod. We have felt deep anguish for him and his family as we learnt of the abuse he experienced and the rejection by some in the Diocese. Throughout his ministry he has been committed to hearing the voices at the grassroots and empowering the vulnerable and people in need. Drawing on the great treasures in the teachings of Jesus, he has been unafraid of speaking strongly to the powerful to ensure transparency and promote justice. We are deeply thankful for Bishop Greg Thompson’s ministry as Anglican Bishop of Newcastle.

    A VOICE IN THE WILDERNESS: Listening to the Statement from the Heart Author: Celia Kemp, Reconciliation Coordinator | Artist: The Reverend Glenn Loughrey Foreword Listening is an important, if not dying, art form. Being able to hear the First published November 2018 Second printing with minor updates, June 2019 voice of the other is deeply challenging.

Yet, at the same Free pdf version, Leader’s Guide or time there are some whose hearts have turned cold, and do not wish to to order hard copies: www.abmission.org/voice listen to anything but their own voices. ‘The Statement from the Heart’ is an important voice for the aspirations and hopes of the First Nations peoples of our land.
