Chaplain to the Archbishop of York Recruitment Pack July 2021 Chaplain to the Archbishop of York Recruitment Pack July 2021 1 Overview The vision for the Church of England in the 2020s is that we become a Christ centred and Jesus shaped Church. To be Christ centred requires a spiritual and theological renewal. The phrase ‘Jesus shaped’ is borrowed from the Anglican Communion and describes how our life in Christ should be shaped by the five marks of mission. From this central vision three strategic objectives have emerged – • to be a church of missionary disciples • to be a church where mixed ecology is the norm • to be a church that is younger and more diverse Nationally, the Archbishop of York leads on this agenda. It therefore shapes the Living Christ’s Story agenda of the York diocese and the agenda for our work here at Bishopthorpe, both to support this national and diocesan ministry, but also to help Archbishop Stephen identify specific priorities for his own ministry, particularly here in the northern province. At Bishopthorpe we have aligned these ideas around a single phrase from the Lord’s Prayer: Your kingdom come on earth as in heaven. This is shaping an agenda for the Palace itself, enhancing the way we welcome groups and how we use the building and its beautiful grounds for hospitality, debate, dialogue and encounter with God. It also shapes Archbishop Stephen’s personal priorities of - • Prayer • Pilgrimage • Teaching and evangelism, particularly through missionary journeys across the north when that is possible • Shaping a Christian narrative of hope for the nation, and particularly in the north Working with other members of the leadership team at Bishopthorpe and with the York Diocesan Leadership Team, the Chaplain will have a particular role to support the Archbishop in his ministry in the York diocese and across the Northern Province, particularly providing spiritual, liturgical, pastoral and theological support Bishopthorpe Palace Bishopthorpe Palace is located in the village of Bishopthorpe which sits 3 miles south of the City of York. The Palace is the home of the Archbishop of York and Mrs Cottrell and operates as a multi-functional palace, housing working offices, meetings rooms, and a chapel. The Palace and its grounds are often used for charity open days, retreats, conferences and receptions. 2 The small and dedicated staff team at the Palace support the ministry of the Archbishop of York, and work closely with colleagues in the Diocesan office, the Northern Province and the National Church. The team also ensure the Palace is a place of welcome and hospitality which includes the beautiful gardens and woodland within the grounds. The life of the Community at Bishopthorpe Palace is centred on prayer and worship. Each day begins with Morning Prayer. The regular celebration of the Eucharist shapes our common life. As the country emerges from Covid-19, we look forward to the Palace and Grounds being a place where individuals, local churches and those within our local community can visit, find rest and encounter God. 3 THE NATIONAL CHURCH INSTITUTIONS MANAGING EMPLOYER: THE ARCHBISHOP OF YORK (IN HIS CORPORATE CAPACITY) BISHOPTHORPE PALACE JOB DESCRIPTION JOB TITLE: Chaplain to the Archbishop of York GRADE: Salary equivalent to Incumbent’s Stipend, with accommodation provided LOCATION: Bishopthorpe Palace, Bishopthorpe, York, YO23 2GE ACCOUNTABLE TO: The Archbishop of York through his Chief of Staff LINE MANAGEMENT PA to the Chaplain and Legal Executive Officer RESPONSIBILITIES: BACKGROUND: The Chaplain will assist and support the Archbishop in his ministry in the York Diocese and the Northern Province of the Church of England. KEY RELATIONSHIPS: The Archbishop of York, Suffragan Bishops, Archdeacons, the York Diocesan Secretary and Chief Executive, the Provincial and Diocesan Registrar, the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser, the Archbishop’s Chief of Staff, Deputy Chief of Staff, the Archbishop’s Personal Assistant, the Archbishop’s Communications and Administrative Staff, the Dean of York Minster, the Diocesan Director of Mission and Ministry and the Precentor of York Minster. MAIN AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY: The role of Archbishop’s Chaplain encompasses spiritual, liturgical, executive, pastoral, and research responsibilities. The role requires someone with clarity of thought, ability to work on complex issues with tact and diplomacy, an eye for detail as well as an appreciation of wider issues, excellent administrative and interpersonal skills and the capacity to manage and prioritise their workload according to the Archbishop’s work agenda. One of the main elements of the role is to support the Archbishop’s ministry in the York Diocese. Since most of these responsibilities are delegated to the three Suffragan Bishops of Hull, Selby and Whitby, supporting the Archbishop’s ministry means supporting their ministry as well, particularly through the work of the York Diocesan Leadership Team (YDLT) which is hosted by the Archbishop, but chaired by the Bishop of Whitby. The Chaplain will therefore be working closely with him and 4 the other bishops and members of YDLT as well as the Archbishop, acting as both a conduit between them and a servant to the leadership team. The Chaplain will advise and be a sounding board to the Archbishop and Bishops and work collaboratively. The person appointed will need to be resilient and dependable, impartial and good humoured and have emotional and spiritual intelligence to navigate a varied, challenging and fulfilling ministry. The Chaplain will support the Archbishop in three main areas of ministry - 1. The Diocese of York - Supporting and facilitating the Archbishop’s ministry and all episcopal ministry in the Diocese of York, that is representing the Archbishop in and through the life of the diocese and supporting the other bishops of the diocese and the work of the York Diocesan Leadership Team (YDLT). 2. The Province of York - Supporting and facilitating the Archbishop’s ministry across the Province of York. 3. Bishopthorpe Palace - Supporting and facilitating the life of prayer and worship at Bishopthorpe Palace, praying daily for the work of the Archbishop and Bishopthorpe staff.

  • Ecclesiastical Judges Complaints Procedure
    Ecclesiastical Judges Complaints Procedure 1. Chancellors and Deputy Chancellors in the Church of England hold judicial office, as does the Dean of Arches and Auditor. By reason of the independence of the judiciary, any complaint concerning them must relate to misconduct in the performance of their office, and not to the substance of the decision made (including case management decisions) in court proceedings. By way of example, matters of misconduct might include rude or bullying behaviour, or inordinate delay in the conduct of proceedings. 2. Any complaint about an ecclesiastical judge shall be submitted in writing to the Vicar- General of the Province concerned at the address below.1 It must be sent within three months of the matter complained of, although the Vicars-General may entertain a complaint made after that time in exceptional circumstances. 3. The complaint shall contain: • the name of the complainant and their contact details (including their postal address and email address); • the name of the person against whom the complaint is made; • the date of the matter complained about; • the nature of the proceedings involved; • full details of the complaint (ie what the person said or did or did not do that it is alleged amounts to misconduct); • details of the exceptional circumstances relied on if the complaint is outside the three month time period. 4. If the complaint on its face could not amount to misconduct, the Vicar-General shall dismiss it and shall notify the complainant and the person complained about accordingly, giving reasons. 5. If the complaint could amount to misconduct, the Vicars-General (or if either is conflicted, a duly appointed substitute who shall be a senior chancellor from the province nominated by the Dean)2 shall investigate the complaint in such manner as they deem appropriate and in accordance with the principles of natural justice.

  • The Canterbury Association
    The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry.

  • York Minster's Chapter House and Its Painted Glass Narratives
    York Minster’s Chapter House and its Painted Glass Narratives Volume 1 of 3 Ann Hilary Moxon PhD University of York History of Art December 2017 Abstract This thesis focuses on the late thirteenth-century narrative glazing scheme of the chapter house in York Minster and the political and religious context of its design. Created as an intrinsic and integrated part of one of the most elaborate and important buildings in the period, the glass has suffered interventions affecting both its appearance and the positions of its narrative panels. By examining the glass in the context of contemporary visual and textual material, it has been possible to reconstruct the original order of the panels and to identify the selection of episodes the lives of the saints, some for the first time. The study has demonstrated the extent to which the iconography was rooted in liturgy and theology relevant to the period which, in turn, reflected the priorities of a dominant group among the active members of Chapter for whose use the building was constructed and, by extension, the contemporary Church. Further, the glass shows strong Mariological themes which reflected features in the rest of the decorative scheme and the architecture of the chapter house, indicating that the glazing scheme may have been conceived as part of the architectural whole. The conclusions are supported by parallel research into the prosopography of the contemporary Chapter which additionally suggests that the conception of the programme may have had its roots in the baronial wars of the

  • MS Dep 1980/1 Archives of the Dean and Chapter Of
    Handlist 47 LEEDS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Archives of the Dean and Chapter of Ripon MS Dep 1980/1 The greater part of their accumulated archives was very generously deposited recently in the Brotherton Library of the University of Leeds by the Dean and Chapter of Ripon. It is hoped that by this arrangement the material will be more conveniently accessible to the majority of researchers. A few items, however, remain at Ripon because they are currently in use or are on permanent display to visitors. The cathedral was a parish church before it was raised to its present status and the parish registers are deposited at the North Yorkshire County Record Office, Northallerton. This list includes both the material remaining at Ripon and that at Northallerton. The archives of the Dean and Chapter have been listed twice before. A summary list was prepared for the Pilgrim Trust in 1946. A much fuller list was compiled for the National Register of Archives (Historical Manuscripts Commission) and issued in 1959. Upon the archives being inspected after their arrival at Leeds it was immediately apparent that the collection contained even more than had been listed in 1959, and it was decided with the ready concurrence of the Commission, that a new listing would be essential. This new list has been designed to avoid as much confusion as possible. It follows the style and numeration of the 1959 list and new entries have been inserted as close as possible to suitable places within its original framework. Some documents had identifications unrelated to the serial numbers used in that list; they have now been numbered to correspond and the additional items have been given appropriate subdivisions within the original notation.
